Character Arc

Laios Touden is the earnest, sword-wielding leader of the party and the emotional engine of the story. After his younger sister Falin is swallowed by the red dragon, he commits everything to descending the dungeon to recover and revive her, even when it means eating monsters to stay alive. Brave and dependable in a fight, he is also socially awkward and prone to tactless honesty.

What sets Laios apart is his genuine, almost childlike enthusiasm for monsters. Far from being disgusted by the idea of eating them, he is fascinated by their biology, behavior, and flavor, often delighting in dishes that horrify his companions. This obsession, treated as comic relief early on, gradually reveals deeper layers about his isolation and his unusual way of relating to the world.

As the journey continues, Laios grows from a well-meaning but clumsy leader into someone whose strange affinity for monsters becomes central to the dungeon's mysteries. His loyalty to Falin and his trust in his friends anchor the party through increasingly dangerous encounters.
