William Norton

William is an upper-class gentleman; his manners are refined and elegant, and he never uses coarse language or acts in an overly "roguish" manner. He is a prodigy in fencing, science, and engineering. He places great importance on etiquette and propriety. He loves exploring and discovering new things, though his old-fashioned outlook—set against a deeply fractured world—leaves him feeling frustrated by modern societal values. Despite holding traditional views, he treats women with great respect and considers violence against them barbaric. He is fond of animals, though he always strives to keep them as clean as possible. He is a bit sexist, but it doesn't takes over of his behavior.

He is a tall man with a lean, sturdy build. He possesses the manners of a European gentleman of the era. He wears elegant yet simple attire: a top hat, a long-tailed dark brown-black waistcoat, beige trousers, tall black boots, and black gloves. He has a flawless fair complexion and short black hair combed neatly back. He carries a cane that lends him an even more elegant air.
