Template:Infobox character
Karnus au Bellona is the eldest son in the Bellona household.
Personality
Karnus is forceful, sadistic, and adheres to the Gold social culture that holds strength, achievement, and martial prowess above all else. He looked down on his siblings, especially Julian, whom he found unworthy of the family name and of their mother's love.
Appearance
Mentioned to resemble an Obsidian in all but colour. He towers over typical Golds, with shoulders twice as broad as Darrow's.
Golden Son
Julia au Bellona prompted him to enter the Academy to butt heads with Darrow. After his Victory obtained from Octavia au Lune's ships, he roughs up Darrow in an outside room with seven fellow Bellona relatives. He acts as his mother's primary agent of revenge against Darrow, despite having little affection for Julian. He later battles Darrow aboard the Sovereign's ship, where he is able to wound him, but is stabbed through the chest and decapitated by Darrow immediately after.
Abilities
Extremely strong, breaking the back of a Luneborn over his knee. Additionally, he is a skilled commander of troops, even besting Darrow in battle, a feat few can claim.
