personality.
as
chief justice
of fontaine, neuvillette takes court and trials
very seriously
. he makes decisions without impartiality and he uses the
oratrice mecanique d'analyse cardinale
to make final decisions. in that moment, his
personal
feelings don't matter and such has caused certain people to think that he's
heartless
. a fact that
saddens
him greatly, even if he doesn't admit it
directly
. he is
popular
amongst the people of fontaine, as a symbol of
justice & honour
.
being an
ancient creature
, neuvillette doesn't
fully
understand human customs and emotions and oftentimes comes off as what people would call
strange
. love and intimacy is something he's not
versed
in and he often catches himself staring at couples in
stupefied
wonder. one would think that, being as old as he is, neuvillette would have plenty of experiences in the subject. but he is, in fact, as naive as it gets in
such
matters. he genuinely doesn't understand
why
someone would enjoy being so " uncomfortably close " to another person and although he won't
judge
with
disapproval
, he still thinks it a strange fixation. that being said, he doesn't enjoy physical contact and avoids it, if possible. he's not what one would call misophobic, but close enough. hence why he wears
gloves
at all times. skin to skin contact tends to make him
uncomfortable
, unless the other person is his
partner
.
he is
rarely
seen in public and he often comes off as
aloof
, but he possesses a tender heart and many emotions, that he tends to keep
bottled up
for the sake of appearances. when he
cries
, the skies pour rain upon fontaine. he is able to form
physical
tears, but such an occasion is
rare
. he usually keeps a
straight
face, even while
suffering
on the inside. those who know his secret, however, can notice the subtle twitching of his lips whenever rain pours down.
neuvillette is, in fact,
friendly
and very protective of melusines, considering them the pride of fontaine.
reincarnation.
neuvillette's
soul
is approximately
ten thousand
years old, while his current form has only existed for five centuries. he and the previous hydro dragon sovereign are
one & the same
. however, his previous incarnation came to an end and he passed away, before being reincarnated as he is now
;
as monsieur neuvillette. he's fairly aware of that, although he tends to
doubt
it sometimes. when he was reincarnated, he simply awoke in this form, already a fully grown adult. how he came about to be the chief justice of fontaine is
unknown
, but he has been in that position for a few
centuries
and the people of fontaine dare not question his position and authority.
although neuvillette considers himself
sharp
and with a good memory, the events of his past life are something that
slips
his mind entirely. he only sees fragments of who he used to be and the things he had experienced and that
tortures
him greatly. he sometimes suffers from abrupt flashbacks, during which he witnesses blurry bits of his past, prior to his reincarnation. they feel awfully familiar and yet, he cannot fully recall those events. the same happens with
people
. he may feel an inexplicable
familiarity
towards someone he'd met during his past life, but he doesn't fully remember them. it's as if his soul has a mind of its own sometimes. he doesn't know how he came to be, whether he has parents or other family somewhere in teyvat.
oftentimes, his past incarnation's memories will visit him in the form of
night terrors
and those are the reason he tends to avoid sleep and spend most of his nights working in his office. nobody is aware of that
;
people who know him and his
odd
schedule assume he's simply a
workaholic
. which is also true, to an extent.
amongst the information neuvillette has
forgotten
is his
true name
. he just tells everyone to address him by his last name, or any of his formal titles, if the situation calls for it. up until the point when focalors returns his powers, he is
unable
to assume his true form, but there are also cases where his dragon βββ like features appear against his will. those being patches of shimmery scales, his tail, fangs and claws. his horns
cannot
be hidden, but they are worn like
accessories
. they sometimes grow
sore
and ache, unless lifted or massaged. they also
glow
during times of intense distress, anger or pleasure. even after his powers being returned, there are days, when hiding his true features is a
task
.
diet.
being a
gentleman
, many would assume that neuvillette would consume almost
anything
offered to him, out of pure courtesy. however, the mighty iudex of fontaine is
incredibly choosy
with his meals and only entrusts a handful of people to prepare what it is he will consume. his favourite dish is consomme purete, a dish he holds in high regard, despite it reportedly tasting βββββββββ
like any other soup
.
he has a personal chef at palais mermonia, who prepares all of his dishes and aside from him, neuvillette will only eat at very
specific
establishments, unless otherwise necessary. he will eat meat and vegetables and seafood, contrary to popular belief. being a
sea serpent
in his true form, fish and other oceanic creatures are his
natural
diet. albeit, he will not consume them raw, like a beast would.
he has a very sensitive stomach to spices and spicy foods ( especially, from regions like liyue or sumeru ) will give him excruciating stomach cramps. thus, he will
refuse
them at all costs, even if he ends up
offending
the one who's offering them. he's also a lactose intolerant and consumption of dairy will make him
very sick
. he opts for alternatives. his favourite being oat milk and its byproducts.
neuvillette is actually an
excellent
cook, having lived a very long life. however, he rarely has the time to
indulge
in preparing his own food.
