Petelgeuse Romanee-Conti (ペテルギウス・ロマネコンティ) was the primary antagonist of Arc 3. He was a Sin Archbishop of the Witch Cult, representing sloth. He was later killed by Natsuki Subaru with the help of Julius Juukulius.

Appearance

Petelgeuse has short dark green hair that is cut neatly along with gray emotionless eyes. He wears a black, green, and red robe along with clerical attire.

A hundred years ago, his appearance was mostly the same, except that he had a tough yet gentle look. He had a sinewy and tall body, longer dark green hair and also wore a black clerical robe.

Personality

Petelgeuse prefers to talk while in weird positions, such as tilting his head or bending his waist and also likes to injure his own body. His principles of living consist of diligence and love, his reason for living to prove that. His love for Satella is the largest among the Sin Archbishops. He diligently follows orders, always acting first in various situations, causing his name to be well known.

A hundred years earlier, Petelgeuse was a moderate, upright and rational man. He was close friends with Fortuna and Emilia, enough to be described as being like a family. However, when Regulus and Pandora attacked their village, he accidentally killed Fortuna through Pandora's power, causing him to go mad.
