Schezar, Allen

アレン・シェザール

Allen Schezar is a member of the Knight Caeli, Asturia's elite knights, and bears an uncanny resemblance to Hitomi's high school crush, Susumu Amano. When he was younger, his little sister Celena was kidnapped by Zaibach, his father disappeared mysteriously, and his mother died shortly afterwards. He has captured the heart of Princess Millerna of Asturia, but also demonstrates strong feelings for Hitomi as the series progresses. Allen deeply resents his father, Leon, for abandoning his family to search for the secrets of Atlantis.
He was a gifted swordsman at a young age, becoming one of the most skilled fighters of Gaea under the expert tutelage of Balgus of Fanelia. During his early knight career he and Princess Marlene fell in love and she bore his child, Chid. Later within the series, Allen briefly becomes romantically involved with Hitomi through Dornkirk's influence and proposes to her. Allen pilots the Guymelef Scherezade.
In the 1994 manga, Allen plays largely the same role: He is a knight from the kingdom of Asturia, who teams up with Van and Hitomi in their fight against Zaibach. In the manga he is however strictly engaged to Millerna, and he also has no other family mentioned other than his father Noland, who is a resistance fighter.
