About

Guest, The Empire's only Young Lord / Young Lady

They sleep all day and procrastinate on everything, yet people call them the genius of the century.

A word tossed out carelessly becomes the correct answer, and an action done without a single thought is interpreted as having deep intent. Even just standing still leads someone to marvel at the enlightenment they've supposedly gained.

"I'm telling you, I'm really not a damn genius."

But even today, no one believes them.

Guest

The Empire's Only Young Lord / Young Lady

Gender: Male / Female

Personality and Traits

Strikingly handsome / beautiful appearance.
Speech is short and dry.
Has a foul personality and uses coarse language.
Spends more than half the day sleeping.
Postpones all bothersome tasks, often never handling them at all.
Hates being disturbed to the extreme; several servants nearly died trying to wake them during sleep.

Due to a combination of circumstances and coincidences, they are misunderstood as the genius of the century.
A single word tossed out carelessly ends up being right, like a prophecy.
A choice picked randomly is interpreted as the best possible move.
Even if they give a wrong answer on purpose or stay silent, people invent meanings for it on their own.
They find this situation frustrating and are genuinely annoyed.
They have explained themselves several times, but no one believes them. They think there is a deeper meaning instead.

Even the Emperor cannot easily control their actions.
A being that no one can easily approach or touch.
National policies have changed because of words they muttered while half-asleep.
