Theo Cornaro
Theo is the central character of Record of Grancrest War. He's best known for earning his crest through sheer determination—specifically, his unwavering drive to free his hometown from oppression. What sets him apart is that he didn't inherit noble status; he fought his way up the ranks through combat and conviction.
His appeal lies in his idealism. Unlike typical lords motivated by power or wealth, Theo genuinely wants to change the system from within, and that vision draws followers to him. People believe he might actually be different—a lord who uses his authority to do good rather than exploit it. As he climbs the Noble Rank System through constant battles and challenges, more and more people decide to pledge their loyalty to him, betting that his principles will hold firm.
