PERSONALITY[/font]
First and foremost, Agrias is what one would expect from a holy knight...someone who holds honor above all else, and will not tolerate any sort of injustice, no matter how slight. She a woman who is deadly serious about keeping her promises. To her, they are as sacred as something can possibly be, and, to break one, unless they had a good enough reason, is extremely unforgivable. As such, when she herself makes a promise, she will go to extreme lengths to see that promise fulfilled. There is, however, one person important enough to her that it could possibly overrule a promise she made. Princess Ovelia Atkascha.
She is endlessly devoted to Ovelia, ever since she was assigned to be her bodyguard, and her safety is Agrias' top priority at all times. Even if it meant fighting against or betraying an ally, she would do anything to see that she is safe. It's worth noting that she is fully aware of how hypocritical this is, given her view on keeping vows, but she also makes no attempts to justify this...Ovelia is simply that important to her. Anyone who knew her well it enough might even go as far as saying that she might even be in love with Ovelia, and they wouldn't be that far off. Indeed, she harbors a deep affection for her, but will deny it if asked outright about it, in a desperate attempt to keep things "professional"...after all, she is her bodyguard. At the same time, however, when she inadvertently does something that puts Ovelia in danger, she will kick herself for a while, and nothing short of Ovelia saying that she forgives her (even if she doesn't believe Agrias to be responsible) will snap her out of this.
In battle, she is calm and collected, able to quickly adapt to changing situations. While she prefers to avoid needless bloodshed, this doesn't mean that she won't kill her opponents if she has to. She will usually do her best to find another option, though. She also has no qualms about retreating if a battle becomes too tough, and, though she has been called a coward because of this, she would rather be labeled as such than die in a hopeless battle. As always, Ovelia's safety comes first, and she will usually try to avoid fighting if she is around. However, if, for whatever reason, Ovelia is forced to fight, Agrias will never leave her side, unless an ally's life is at risk. She will return to her as quickly as the battle will allow her...though, as far as she is concerned, it's never soon enough.

HISTORY[/font]
Agrias was born in the royal city of Lesalia, her father a knight who served under the royal family. Her mother died due to complications after giving birth to Agrias, so she was raised by an aunt, though her father visited her as often as she could. He would often tell stories about the battles he was on, and the many other things he did as a knight, and Agrias became fascinated by them. When she turned fifteen, she decided to follow in his footsteps and become a knight herself. She began training as a squire at Fort Besselant, and quickly proved to be a gifted fighter. There, she met and befriended three fellow squires; two girls named Alicia and Lavian, and a boy named Ladd. The four of them became extremely close, and encouraged each other throughout most, if not all, of their training.
Agrias, Lavian and Alicia eventually became knights, though Ladd was unable to keep up and remained a squire. Agrias in particular showed amazing skill, and was eventually able to master the arts of the Holy Knight, a feat that only a handful of knights could accomplish. Because of this, she was selected by King Denamda II to serve as his daughter's personal bodyguard. It was on that fateful day that she met Princess Ovelia, and an inseparable bond was quickly formed. Wanting to keep her friends close, trusting them above all the other knights, she made arrangements so that Alicia, Lavian and Ladd would serve under her, and they remained loyal to Agrias ever since. It was shortly after becoming Ovelia's bodyguard that she had received word of her father's death...he had died in battle, defending a city against some bandits. Though saddened by the news, it only strengthened her resolve to follow in his example.
Years later, Ovelia had gotten directly (yet unwittingly) involved in some politics, and, fearing for her safety, Agrias hired some mercenaries to help defend her while they sought refuge at the Orbonne Monistary. However, they failed, and Ovelia was kidnapped by Delita Heiral. One of the mercenaries, who Agrias knew as Ramza Lugria, knew who Delita was. Thus, with the mercenaries, she set off after her. Eventually, she was able to rescue Ovelia, and she continued to travel with Ramza for a while. Soon, they found themselves having to part ways for a while, and Agrias stayed with Ovelia in Lionel. It was at this time that reality began to warp around the two of them, and everything went blank. When Agrias woke up, she was in a completely unfamiliar area, unaware of the scale of what had just taken place. The first thing she noticed was that she and Ovelia had somehow, at some point, been seperated. Thus, Agrias began a desperate search, hoping to find the person dearest to her.
