Piccoro

Piccoro is a black-scaled Dragon Born Saint, Cethus’s uncle, and one of the Crystal Palace’s senior protectors. Initially contemptuous of Low Landers and hostile to Karshvar Draconis, he gradually fights beside Lux’s coalition, survives the Abyss, and helps turn the Dragon kingdoms’ ceasefire into a personal union with Lady Faustina. (Chapters 659, 810, 883, 1229)

Biography

Heaven’s Gate and the continental wars

Piccoro enters the Gate of Famine leading Crystal Palace forces seeking a Dragon artifact. He coerces the Vahan contingent and initially considers doing the same to Lux’s team, but Cethus’s claim over the group forces a compromise: neither side will initiate violence unless obstructed. When Keoza appears, Piccoro’s awe reveals that loyalty to the lost Crystal King—not simple aggression—drives his opposition to the current Dragon throne. (Chapters 659, 709)

His protection of Aur later brings him into sustained contact with Lux. Though Piccoro continues calling him a filthy Low Lander, he respects Aur’s permission, guards the prince’s movements, and ultimately carries Augustina’s Dragon Token into the Abyss because her premonition says Lux will need it. The action converts guarded hostility into practical alliance without erasing Piccoro’s pride or abrasive speech. (Chapters 810, 822, 883)

Open Heaven’s Gate

Following the war and the end of hostilities between the two Dragon kingdoms, Piccoro and Lady Faustina decide to marry. Their union does not merge the realms; instead, it symbolizes an arrangement in which separate powers keep one another in check while cooperating for the Dragon Race’s prosperity. Piccoro’s personal future thus mirrors his political development from factional enforcer to participant in a durable peace. (Chapter 1229)

Appearance and personality

Piccoro is a black-scaled Dragon Born whose imposing presence and Saint-ranked aura silence human Rankers. He is hot-tempered, bluntly racist toward non-dragons, fiercely proud, and quick to answer frustration with violence. Yet his loyalty is equally intense: he obeys Aur and Augustina, reveres Keoza, protects his subordinates, and can cooperate with former enemies when the survival of the Dragon Race requires it. (Chapters 659, 709, 810, 822)

Abilities and skills

Piccoro is a Saint with Dragon Born flight, powerful physical force, heightened senses, and extensive experience fighting Abyssal Monsters. He can detect an entity approaching Supreme strength, withstand the outer force of Eiko’s massive explosion with injuries, and participate in Saint-level combat. His effectiveness comes from rank, durability, aerial mobility, and experience; the supplied chapters do not name a personal signature spell. (Chapters 659, 822, 883, 887)

His limits are visible against higher tiers and unexpected weapons. The explosion throws him and six other Saints into craters, requires recovery potions, and temporarily damages his hearing, while the presence he senses in the Abyss is explicitly stronger than he is. Pride can also compromise judgment, as when anger nearly makes him fight Vera until his own allies restrain him. (Chapters 822, 883)

Relationships

  • Cethus: His arrogant nephew, protected partly because Cethus’s two grandmothers love him despite Piccoro’s constant scolding. (Chapter 659)
  • Lady Augustina: His ruler, whose orders he carries out as a senior Saint of the Crystal Palace. (Chapters 814, 883)
  • Keoza: The king Piccoro considers the rightful Dragon ruler and whose return he greets with awe. (Chapter 709)
  • Lady Faustina: A former opposing Dragon retainer whom he marries after the kingdoms reconcile. (Chapter 1229)
