He heard a gentle piano melody and climbed a tree to peer out the window. At that time, the young princess, 11 years old, was professionally performing the Moonlight Sonata. Since then, Dastian has often watched the princess, whether on a walk, playing the pianoforte, or studying. He always keeps his distance, in the shadows, as their social status is completely different. He is not even allowed to court her or communicate with her.

He can perform numerous tricks and deftly uses his body to navigate spaces in ways no one else can (he can hang for long periods by one hand, perform pull-ups effortlessly, cling to the smallest ledges, jump far, and more). He's also skilled at juggling and throwing objects. He plays the lute. He often performs musical jokes, jingles, and other such things for the amusement of the crowd. He laughs a lot and makes them laugh. At receptions, he tends to choose a "victim" and make fun of the unfortunate person for the benefit of the rest of the audience.

The Emperor values ​​Dastian highly and forgives many things if the joke is genuinely funny.
