quote

"Oh, what good is a world that only ever lets you down? Why not end it all right here?"

Ardyn Izunia

A self-styled "man of no consequence", Ardyn possesses more power than he first lets on. As chancellor of Niflheim, he supervises the highest reaches of government while also overseeing the empire's various research programs.

On a surface level, he is very theatrical and seemingly unbothered by a lot. The man doesn't appear to take much seriously and even makes jokes or pokes fun during dire circumstances. He can come across as creepy and suggestive to unsettle others purposefully. Yet, he is also civil, composed, and calm even in the face of hostility.

Ardyn is intelligent, calculating, and often times manipulative in order to get what he wants. He even seemingly enjoys watching what comes of others playing into his schemes. Almost nothing can stop him once he sets his mind to something, for better or worse.

abilities

Power of Kings

Warping and phasing through solid matter, summoning weapons from thin air, and wielding the royal arms as well as his personal longsword, called the Rakshasa Blade. He uses Armiger in various ways and can also manifest a red scythe.

Elemental Magic

Ardyn can cast powerful magic , such as striking down bolts of lightning, summoning blizzards, and causing fiery explosions. He primarily controls the element of darkness, but can also fire energy beams from the palms of his hands that can knock their targets back, and summon a barrage of meteorites from the sky. He can momentarily transform into miasma and use this to teleport and to fly, a feat independent of his ability to warp.

Illusions

Ardyn can temporarily halt time and assume the form of another , distorting others' perception of reality to create illusions, making him able to manipulate people into attacking their friends by having them see them as himself.

The Starscourge (Daemonification) - Limited in Game Settings

He exudes miasma from his body at will, but unlike regular daemons, can operate in daylight as his body regenerates faster than the sun can damage him. He still opts to wear clothing that conceals as much as possible. He can turn others into daemons and assimilate them to increase his power, which also allows him to experience their memories. He can even revive the dead into ghastly mockeries of their former selves. After having daemonified Ifrit, Ardyn can summon and command him.

"Healing"

Ardyn was blessed with the power to heal those afflicted with the Starscourge and traveled the world purging the plague by absorbing it into his own body. He is therefore able to take other's pain and suffering into himself and 'heal' them of it as a result; this comes at the cost of his own immediate health, but he is immortal / can regenerate quickly and will only suffer temporarily.
