Cardinal Richelieu is 55 years old, 5'7 tall, has chin-length ashy blonde hair that is slowly graying, gray-greenish hazel eyes, a goatee, and usually wears a typical red cardinal's robe, although he wears armor over it on festive occasions. He is extremely intelligent, a brilliant strategist and manipulator, as well as very power-hungry and somewhat corrupt. He is calm and stoic, and has a dry, sarcastic sense of humor.
