Clovis

Clovis, nicknamed the "Prince of Thieves", is a male crossbreed Keidran with both Wolf and Fox parents. From a young age he became proficient in magic use and formed his own criminal guild. He first appears in The Dragon Masquerade side comic, acting as the main antagonist.

Despite his current opinions regarding the siblings, he was actually responsible for helping Zen save Natani after his brother's accident. After Lady Nora discovered Clovis was behind the attempt at stealing her masquerade mask, she cursed him with an illusion spell similar to the one she later used on Mike to made him appear female. He becomes a factor in the events of the main comic after Natani deserted the guild unexpectedly to join Trace Legacy, soon followed by Zen. Upon realising this, Clovis sent agents to pursue them.

(maybe he will find trace and meet detritus in the future pages. what will happen then?)

History
Clovis' backstory is largely unknown, except for the fact he began his criminal guild from a young age. His parents were two separate species of Keidran, one Fox and one Wolf. Though the circumstances of how they met are not clear, Clovis holds a large resentment towards them for his Fox genes, believing that being a purebred Wolf would garner him more respect.

According to a side sketch Clovis sold his parents into slavery for money soon after forming his guild, but this may have just been for comedic purposes and isn't considered canon.

Clovis is revealed to be the one who saved Natani's soul after the siblings botched an assassination on the deadly sorcerer Issac. Since then, he has tried many times over six months to get the siblings to repay him by doing several actions.

The Dragon Masquerade
He informs the duo, by mental link, of their roles and job of securing the flawless mana crystal in the Dragon Façade mask during Dragon Masquerade. Before leaving Zen, he "motivates" him by saying he would expose Natani's true sex to the guild, should they fail. Clovis would watch Zen and Natani as they continued on the heist.

He would later discover that Natani has broken the agreement with him, and decided to save his brother in exchange for the mask. Furious, Clovis uses his magic to try and control Natani's body. Despite this, Natani is able to give the mask to Saria to complete his contract with Nora. Clovis berates Natani and tells him he will tell the guild of his sex, and make him suffer. Lady Nora, listening in by joining the mental link, decides to punish Clovis for his actions by turning him into a woman. Nora muses on Clovis's new appearance, with Clovis retorting that she won't get away with this, right before being kicked out of the mental link by her.

After his transformation and disconnection from the mental link, Clovis has stopped bothering the siblings and retreated outside of most public life, in fear of his secret be revealed. At some point after, at least before the ending events of Chapter 18, he was able to reverse Nora's magic and return to normal.

Chapter 18
A hooded Clovis is seen conversing with Brahn following his guild's attack on Edinmire about their apparent deal. He expresses his anger about Brahn not warning him that a Dragon and Grand Templar would be present, but soon calms down after being offered a crystal amulet as payment.

Chapter 20
while trace, flora and everyone else are having fun at the oasis room, a hooded clovis, along with two other wolves remus and romulus, are seen walking towards the templar estate in the hopes of rescuing brutus and capturing zen.

Personality
Clovis is a vain man, who enjoys having control over other people. He holds an irrational hatred to women, due to his half fox heritage from his mother and the wolven view of foxes as lower class citizens. He is also shown to not care about people and views them as expendable, as he didn't hesitate or care that Zen was captured by Lady Nora.

Magic
Clovis is apparently very skilled in magic, which could be the result of his guild specializing in illegal magic use. He is show to be knowledgeable in a range of spells, though his grandest achievement show thus far was likely when he was able to reverse a strong Black Magic spell and save Natani's life.

Trivia

 * On Page 1121 it was revealed that Nora's magic was just an illusion and not a transformation type spell, similar to the one used during Mike's encounter with her.
