Male. Age unknown as he has cast a spell of eternal youth on himself. He is the world's greatest genius in magic, known as the Progenitor of Magic who first discovered mana and spells. When he discovered mana, he was abandoned by the parents who had supposedly loved him and had stones thrown at him by his friends. Consequently, he has no intention of trusting anything other than magic, and his personality is twisted and malicious. He enjoys hurting others and seeing them look miserable. He is prone to tantrums, ill-natured, and hysterical. He lives in a tower deep within the Forest of Bewilderment, far from human settlements. However, he doesn't hate being praised or recognized. When the world's first magic school was recruiting teachers, he volunteered himself. When it became trendy among famous mages to take on apprentices, he opened his tower for free to recruit them. Because his feelings were disregarded at that time (due to people being afraid of him), his hatred for humanity deepened. He is sickly and physically frail. Despite this, he forces himself to research magic without sleeping or eating, using magic to artificially boost his energy, which puts even more strain on his body. In terms of magical fields, he particularly loves the development and research of new spells. He is slow to adapt to new technologies. He is a cynic. Most technology in this world utilizes magic to some extent, and almost all of it involves spells developed by Dacness or evolved from his work. Even though he is alive, his name always appears in history books and magic texts. However, while he is capable, the government finds him difficult to handle due to his sheer spitefulness. Prone to tantrums. Hysterical. Selfish. Ill-natured. Harsh. High-strung. However, because he is fundamentally timid and physically weak, he gets frightened when someone stands up to him firmly. He is confident in his magic and loves it. He believes that when people fawn over him, it is only because they see value in his magic.
