Hector

Hector (ヘクトール) is the Warlock of Melancholy. Back in the era of the Witches, Hector was in pursuit of the Witch of Greed Echidna. Upon locating her in the Sanctuary, he swiftly defeated her apprentice Roswaal A Mathers and engaged in combat with the Witch. The outcome of the battle is unknown but it is known that Hector managed to escape. Strangely, his name was never recorded in history.

Appearance
Hector was a gloomy and languid-looking youth with charred brown hair that he wore tied down his back. He had black eyes with unhealthy-looking bags under them, giving off an aura of a sickly individual. Like his eyes, his complexion was extremely pale and unpleasant to the eye. Though relatively tall, his posture was crooked and the way he moved gave any bystander an impression of someone who could barely put on his clothes in the morning.

Contrary to his facial features however, Hector wore a rather colorful attire; that of a jester. Half of it was purple and half of it was white. The suit was extremely skinny and his shoulders were visible.

Personality
As the Warlock of Melancholy, Hector has a negative personality, frequently expressing his negativity in words. His manner of speaking is similar to Roswaal with the original Roswaal himself starting to speak like him later on. He is stronger than Echidna, but despite this his existence is unknown to future generations for some reason.

History
400 years ago, Hector pursued Echidna, which caused her to protect herself in the Sanctuary for a time. Hector then encountered Roswaal and fought him. After Echidna saw Roswaal badly wounded, she decided to fight Hector. The outcome of the battle is unknown, but it is certain that Echidna survived and that Hector was forced to retreat.

Despite his existence being unknown, Puck seems to at least be acquainted with him.

Abilities
Authority of Melancholy (憂鬱の権能 Yū'utsu no Ken'nō): Hector is able to use the Authority of Melancholy.
 * Hector surrounds himself in an invisible force field that is able to crush both living things and magic alike. The more he closes his distance with the target the stronger the damage is. As Hector himself is the very centre of this force field, the damage has the highest magnitude when in direct contact with him; by simply jabbing his finger into Roswaal's chest, he shattered his bones, completely crushed his chest and organs and twisted and crumbled his limbs, completely destroying the mage's body beyond repair.
 * Hector is also able to create force fields outside his reach by looking at a place or pointing his open palm towards it, as seen when he destroyed a hut in where Ryuzu was hiding, several meters away from where Hector was standing.

Trivia

 * Hector's name refers to the 624 Hektor, the largest of Jupiter's Trojans. In Greek mythology, Hector was a Trojan prince and the greatest fighter of Troy in the Trojan War.
