Information

Hector (ヘクトール) is the Warlock of Melancholy. Currently, not much is known about him. He has some importance in Roswaal's and Echidna's backstories as well as to the origin of Sanctuary as he was the reason for its creation.

Roughly 400 years ago, he pursued Echidna to Sanctuary, where he swiftly defeated Roswaal's ancestor, Roswaal A Mathers, and engaged the Witch of Greed. The outcome of their fight, as well as his current status and whereabouts are unknown. Also, his name seems to be completely absent from historical records.[1]

Appearance

Hector had the look of a young man around twenty years of age with a tall body and slender frame. His long messy charred-brown colored hair was tied into a braid that trailed down to his butt. His black eyes had heavy bags under them that gave off the impression of a sickly person. His mouth was slightly puckered and his cheekbones were fairly pronounced. The color of his face was poor and his posture was crooked, which, when coupled with his worn eyes, gave the impression of someone who found it demanding to put on clothes and leave the house. Indeed, every part of Hector's demeanour portrayed lethargy and a general lack of vitality. Rather paradoxically, despite the lack of joviality conveyed by his attitude and posture.

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

In the anime, he's surrounded by a purple distorted hue which somewhat resembles a force field.

Personality

As the Devil 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 after being through the situation. Hector is stronger than Echidna, but despite this his existence is unknown to future generations for some reason which no one knows.

History

Roughly 400 years ago, Hector pursued Echidna for unknown reasons, forcing her to flee to the Sanctuary located in the Kremaldy Forest. In order to prevent him from entering the Sanctuary, Echidna tried to create a magical barrier but failed, resulting in Hector successfully accessing the hiding place and facing off against Roswaal A Mathers, swiftly defeating him without breaking a sweat. Just before delivering the finishing blow, Echidna intercepted him, saving Roswaal's life. The Witch and the Devil clashed, however, the outcome of the fight is unknown, though it's safe to assume Echidna survived the ordeal whilst Hector's fate is currently unknown.
