| “ | Hmm... Well, as long I take control of the throne. Anyone who gets in the way we'll simply do away with. | ” | — Reptor |

Reptor (Japanese: レプトール Reptor) was the Duke of Grannvale's House Friege and the Chancellor of Grannvale as a whole. Fearing the rise of Prince Kurth as a prominent figure in the Grannvale political arena, he conspired with Duke Lombard of Dozel to seize power over the country for themselves, framing Byron and Sigurd of Chalphy for crimes of treason against Kurth and Grannvale as a whole.
Biography
Reptor remained behind in Grannvale during the war with Isaach in Grann 757, continuing to serve as Chancellor while working with Lombard and Arvis on the first seeds of their plan, sowing rumors of plots by Byron and Sigurd to usurp the throne while they were absent at war in Isaach and Agustria respectively.[1] Late in the war, he arranged for Isaach's King Mananan to be assassinated, in order to prolong the war by preventing Mananan from sharing the reality of the Dahna assault with Kurth and to anger the Isaach people into further conflict.[2] The power bloc headed by Reptor seized control of the Grannvale royal court during this time, allowing Reptor to successfully frame Sigurd and Byron for Kurth's assassination at the hands of Lombard.[3] Shortly afterward, he and Lombard led an army to Agustria to capture Sigurd, following the latter's conquest of the country, but Sigurd eluded their capture by escaping to Silesse.
Later in Grann 760, when the armies of Dozel and Velthomer set out to arrest Sigurd in Silesse, Reptor remained behind in Grannvale to maintain order, leading a Friege army to support Aida at Velthomer Castle, the last line of defense against Sigurd's army. Upon receiving word of Lombard's defeat at Phinora, Reptor objected to Arvis apparently lying to him by claiming that their thinly-spread armies would be enough to take Sigurd, but reluctantly accepted his reassurances and returned to his post outside Velthomer with General Aida. While suspicious of Arvis's intent, Reptor set it aside and proceeded as planned, until Aida gave the order for the Velthomer army to turn on the Friege forces. Overwhelmed by both Sigurd's and Aida's armies, Reptor was killed in battle.

Personality and character
Reptor highly valued political power, seeing it as the ultimate means of progressing in life and an absence thereof as a sign of weakness which ensures a certain doom for those without.[4] His actions in seeking to claim Grannvale for himself were entirely motivated by feeling his own power and prestige among Grannvale's nobility was threatened by the rise of Kurth and Byron, and that eliminating them would secure his ongoing place in the world.[5] His greed for power made him easy for Arvis and Manfroy to manipulate, and yet while he was paranoid of being betrayed by Arvis, he nonetheless resigned himself to taking Arvis on face value with no other recourse, only for his suspicions to be confirmed in the end.[6]
