"So, what do we do?"

Luceus (Akuto in Japanese), along with Aurora, is one of two main characters in Dragon Quest Heroes: The World Tree's Woe and the Blight Below. He is the Captain of the Royal Guard of Arba.
Description
Luceus, a steadfast captain in King Doric's service, prides himself on his carefully laid out strategies and tactical battle maneuvers. His commitment to a systematic approach to combat is such that even his own allies tire of his incessant need to lay out a battle plan. He grew up in Arba with Aurora and Healix.
Luceus is a talented tactician with a flair for fast-paced fire attacks. His impressive speed and remarkable reach make him an asset in any battle. His Inferno Slash attack unleashes a searing cyclone that swallows up whole swathes of foes. Aim it at large groups of enemies!
