Official Description

Information

Summary

Glenn is a faculty member of the Alzano Imperial Magic Academy, and the homeroom professor of the Year 2 student of Class 2. He also the adopted son of Celica Arfonia.

He is also former Executive Officer, Operative #0 "The Fool" of the Imperial Court Mage Corps Special Missions Annex.

Appearance

His outfit consists of a white half-sleeved shirt with a loose red tie and black pants with a gold trim at the seams, with accompanying black dress shoes and black laced white gloves.

During the events of Magic Instructor Glenn And His Story Of Vanity,

Glenn does wear the Alzano Imperial Magic Academy's Professor Robe with a pair of glasses, as an attempt of portraying himself as a proper professor.

Personality

Glenn is shown to be a lazy, mischievous and shameless person that often causes great annoyance to characters around him. This includes his foster mother Celica Arfonia being disgusted at him begging to not force him to work; Sistine Fibel constantly calling him out for not taking his job as a professor seriously with his various antics, and fellow professor Halley Astry having a strong distaste for Glenn's lack of professionalism in general.

Ironically,

Glenn's troublesome personality does land himself in many personal problems, such as having a fondness for gambling, terrible money management abilities and trying to find ways to make money without having to work.

Despite these negative traits,

Glenn does show respect to certain characters, specifically ones from certain positions of power. This includes Rick Walken, who he often listens to throughout the series for prospects to save himself or his job, and Alicia VII, who he greatly respects by choosing to still bow before her in a place where no one is watching.

As a professor,

Glenn shows a serious side of educating and watching over his students. His classes, despite being conducted in an unusual manner, reveals a side of Glenn where he wants to ensure his students understand their lesson, as seen in his lecture on the spell Shock Bolt.

Additionally,

Glenn is known to secretly observe the capabilities of his Class 2 students, where he explains his reasoning for why certain students were assigned into certain contests during the Magic Competition Arc. This extends to him finding himself having to assist them with their personal problems, as seen with Lynn Titis' nervousness before her contest in the Magic Competition.

During times of combat,

Glenn's personality varies depending on the opponent he's fighting, where he either holds back by showing a carefree easygoing side of himself, or straight up takes on his opponent with the intent of defeating them swiftly or effectively.

In the case of opponents such as

Carrel Mardos and Jin Ganis, Glenn shows his more laid-back self before taking them on with his abilities. In contrast, opponents such as Reik Fohenheim and Jatice Lowfan does cause him to take a more serious approach rather than goof around.

On the topic of

Glenn's past, he would often dodge the subject due to his personal disgust at his own history. However, there are moments where Glenn does talk about his past, but with indirect metaphors for other characters to interpret rather than a direct explanation. This is seen during his conversation with Sistine, where he masks the story of failing to protect his partner Sara Silvers during a certain mission.
