Noah Luire

"I’m Noah. Not Faible."

Noah Luire is a French S-rank Hunter and the former leader of Ark Guild. He has moved to Korea and currently acts as Han Yoojin's guard. He is the younger brother of Riette Luire.

Appearance
Noah is an attractive young man with blonde hair and light gray eyes.

In his dragon form, he has smooth, white-gold scales and large gray eyes, similar to when he's in his human form. His scales are tough and sturdy. Unlike an actual reptile, however, he is not cold-blooded, and remains quite warm even as a dragon.

Personality
Noah is mild-mannered and extremely polite, particularly in comparison to his older sister Riette. He can appear meek and anxious, largely due to his strained upbringing by his overbearing and demanding sister. In particular, he is quick to perceive himself as weak or useless (an idea reinforced by Riette's nickname for him, Faible, meaning feeble in French), and generally acts on others' orders rather than moving independently. However, as a high-ranking Awakened person, should the situation call for it, he can be stubborn and determined, and is able to hold his own against others.

Though he is competent and likeable, his rough childhood has left lasting marks on him, and he remains deeply insecure, convinced there is something wrong with him. To combat his severe impostor syndrome, he works hard to prove himself and his worth. He is hungry for praise, easily swayed by kindness directed at him, though simultaneously overwhelmed by it. This resulted in him quickly becoming attached to Han Yoojin, Yoo Myeongwoo, and others at the kiseungsu rearing facility. Having found a community to care for him outside of his sister's influence, he is flourishing under their care and attention, slowly becoming more confident in himself and his abilities. His enthusiasm, obedience, and eagerness to please others have frequently gotten his behavior labelled puppy-like.

Stats
Noah originally Awakened as a stat-A rank, his optimal rank. Through harsh training under his elder sister Riette, he has since grown to stat S-rank.

As a Hunter specializing in support, Noah's Mentality stat is on the higher side for his rank.

Skills

Titles
