Patolli

Patolli, also known as Patori, is an elf who leads the Eye of the Midnight Sun. He takes on the identity of Licht. Patolli shares a body with William Vangeance, who leads the Golden Dawn squad. Eventually, Patolli sacrifices himself to protect the Clover Kingdom 

but is later revived in a new artificial body resembling Licht.

Patolli holds Licht as his favorite person. The design of his grimoire serves as the background for Volume 20’s cover. In the Sephirot, Patolli’s position corresponds to Malkuth, representing the ‘Kingdom.’ He ranked #77 in the second popularity poll, #36 in the third, #33 in the fourth, #44 in the fifth, and #47 in the sixth.

Appearance:

Patolli, a tall and slim elf, is a sight to behold. His unique combination of white hair and gold eyes, along with his striking red crescent tattoos, make him stand out wherever he goes. His enigmatic aura is further enhanced by the symbols adorning his head and his stylish looped earrings.

Patolli wears a combination of dark and light robes over light trousers and dark boots. He also sports a padded shirt with a high collar and several belts around his waist. His outfit matches the pattern on his Kippah. Additionally, he wears a long white robe with a hood adorned with black lines and a black shawl held by an ornamental piece. Julius Novachrono injured his right forearm and hand, resulting in complete bandaging. However, months later, Fana heals his arm.

After his reincarnation, Patolli’s ears become pointed, and his tattoos change. As a dark elf, his skin darkens, and his eyes turn black. However, after recovering mentally, his skin and right eye returned to normal. Upon being resurrected in Licht’s artificial body, Patolli’s left eye turns black, and his tattoos vanish. However, six months later, his original tattoos reappeared.

Personality:

While pretending to be Licht, Patolli shows great care for his followers, becoming upset when one of them is hurt. In return, they are fiercely loyal to him, pledging never to betray him. However, Patolli secretly harbors a deep hatred for all humans, viewing them as treacherous and unworthy. He is driven solely by a desire for revenge and is willing to deceive others to achieve his goals.

Since childhood, Patolli has admired Licht and often stayed by his side. He resents Asta for possessing Licht’s grimoire and swords.

Although his time with William has made him think about humanity, it hasn’t changed his desire to eliminate them. When Zagred revealed himself as the true culprit behind his people’s destruction, Patolli spiraled into despair. The devil not only stole Patolli’s grimoire but also transformed him into a dark elf.

When Asta entered his mind, it uncovered Patolli’s inner turmoil and guilt. Despite his reluctance to admit wrongdoing, Asta’s presence gradually influenced him positively. Their conversation brought out Patolli’s earlier traits, and although initially shocked by Asta’s interference, Patolli found determination in Asta’s ambition to confront his past actions. Reuniting with Licht further revealed Patolli’s vulnerability, strengthening his resolve to save rather than destroy.

With his newfound resolve, Patolli undergoes a profound personality shift. He becomes a kinder and more remorseful person, resolving his doubts about humans. Witnessing the bond between Licht and Lemiel, he is even willing to sacrifice himself to undo the harm he had caused to the Clover Kingdom. His transformation is a testament to the power of redemption and genuine repentance.
