Adventas Lamient



Adventas Lamient is the main protagonist of the Dark Devices series and is The Prime Ballot Wielder, also known as the First Key. She was the eleventh person to receive her Ballot by Nazologia's orders, hers named "The Prime Ballot" due to the program being built for her monitoring as a fully formed Kith. Even Mavis Tenaebris took an interest in Adventas when she managed to dispatch both the Serial Killer Salazar Ruxzemburg and The Sacred Eye Cult. She is also the love interest and obsession of Thassia Dey.

Appearance
Adventas is described to be quite an attractive girl with waist length, straight, ash silver hair and two strands falling down to shoulder height at the front. One of these strands has a golden ring in it that leads her hair into a small loop. Her eyes are a rich amber that gained the admiration and uncalled-for attention of most that come in contact with her. Adventas's figure is quite slender, delicate and extremely petite, being around the height of a Thirteen-Year-Old (156.2cm). Adventas's overall appearance can be described as "pretty", "cute" or "beautiful".

Adventas often wears an extremely long, black overcoat with unusually high collars with golden trimming and a silky white scarf. This attire also comes with baggy, dark grey trousers that lead into scuffed, black boots and a white buttoned shirt. In the black overcoat's breast pouch, there is a miniature golden pocket-watch and in her waist belt there was a magnifying glass that she used to make campfires.

During formal occasions, Adventas pulls her hair back in a waist-long ponytail and ties it in a silky black bow. This hairstyle suggests a very girly appearance. The rest of her formal clothing consists of black and gold trim robes that are rose-red on the inside that sweep behind her as she walks. The golden three-pronged fork badge of Piramorda pinned over her heart.

Personality
Adventas is extremely kind hearted, a personality that corresponds well with her quirky manner. She is quite laid back and avoids troublesome situations as much as possible, though works extremely well in uncertain circumstances. Adventas cares a lot for people like street beggars and those whom cannot defend themselves, this weakness often forcing her into having more work than she can possibly handle. Adventas appears to be quite cold or distant at first to most people, though this is merely used to cover up her inner kindness.

Perhaps Adventas's greatest personality flaw are her expectancy issues that represent themselves quite often. A prime example is The Sacred Eye Incident: After Sabine, Serpens and various others had satisfied their bloodlust, Adventas fully expected her new companions to leave her as they had got their revenge, though was immensely surprised when they didn't.

During mortal combat, Adventas tends to place herself bellow opponents, always believing them to be stronger than they actually are. While this portrays her to be too passive and to fixed on negotiating with an enemy before hand. Despite being acceptably powerful, Adventas's most mighty asset is her cunning and shrewd decision-making. Adventas often tries to outsmart her opponents before combat, though acknowledges that combat can be necessary.

Background
Adventas's mother was a beautiful Kirche Scholar by the name of Irene Lamient, whom fell in-love with travelling man named Nazologia. Nazologia in-turn loved Irene, as she fully understood him through all the hardships he had faced. Irene became pregnant with a child, however, a Kirche Warden discovered that they were meeting. Irene was executed in a public ceremony during a parade in Ishkjeltatia, accused for "treason".

Nazologia's feelings of deepest hatred caused the entire Kirche Sanctuary of Ishkjeltatia to disperse. This ex-love made Nazologia hate the "savages" of Kirche and Pandora Squall even more. Nazologia visited his love's corpse and used powerful animancy to revive the life-force within his half-formed child. After the child was re-created in a more "unnatural" fashion, Nazologia delivered the child to a nearby shaman known as Rijks. He dealt with a few matters in Tartaroth before returning to collect the child from Rijks. Nazologia bared both a week-long thunderstorm and minor flooding simply to deliver the child to his friend, Wynnphera Sulldiman, whom ran a private college (Gevruthven Academy).

Adventas Lamient (formerly named Raphael by Nazologia), lived a happy, yet sheltered childhood. He was raised by scholars and took the basic studies of Aether at the mere age of eleven. He also took the study of World Balance, unknowingly having the same vague interests as Nazologia himself. Wynnphera (the headmistress), was very fond of Adventas, though was always slightly weary around him due to him having relation to the feared mage Nazologia. Adventas also became a member of the inner society of scholars and advanced students called Piramorda, having the three-pronged fork badge pinned over his heart.
