Royce comes from the Dragon's den in the Toran Republic. He bonded with his dragon, Vasuki, at an early age, and spent most of his childhood learning to care, raise, and fight with a dragon. It was a big job, as Vasuki is BIG; nearly twice the size of an ordinary dragon, Vasuki stands out as a powerhouse even among dragons. No one knows why Vasuk is so much bigger, whether it was simply a fluke at birth or some secret training Royce gave to the dragon, but the fact remains that this dragon kicks butt.
With such a powerful ally at his side, Royce was tested early on in his career as a dragon knight, and tested often. The pair came through every test with flying colors, with Vasuki being able to overpower any obstacle with brute force. The pair quickly gained a reputation, and began climbing the ranks of dragon knights at a speed not seen in decades. Now a 4th class dragon knight (9th class being an apprentice, and 2nd class being the rank of Dragon Captain with the Dragon Rune; 1st class is nearly always left empty; see the link below for details on dragon knight ranks) there seems to be little stopping Royce and Vasuki from climbing to the top of the knights, with rumors circulating Royce could become Vice Commander or even Captain one day. Only Royce knows of his true goals and ambitions, and it is not immediately clear what brought him to Harmonia in the first place.
