Iris

Iris is an Elemental from Galar.

Appearance
A tan young man with long, purple and turquoise hair who has a scar on his face and wears white suits.

Personality
He’s often depicted in the news as a sophisticated prince who never causes any trouble and who knows to behave, yet he is very daredevilish and adventurous. He likes to fight a lot and prefers not to be treated differently because of his social status.

Story
The youngest Prince of the Shield Kingdom, who is so far down in the family line that he has no chance of ever getting on the throne. Iris couldn’t care less, because he has no interest in the throne to begin with. He would always been on the road if he didn’t have to attend some sort of event, looking for sexual adventures or fighting people and/or animals.

One day, when he got badly wounded from a fight, he crashed in the Mullins Inn, an Inn on the lovely countryside of West Galar with architecture resembling those of Kalos. Prince Iris got a liking in the main and only employee Elenor, who treated him no different to any other guest, which is why Iris became a regular at the Inn, staying there whenever he had the time.

After the death of Elenors father, Iris accompanied Elenor on their way and during the time of his funeral and beyond. This brought their relationship to the next level, because it made Iris realize that Elenor trusts him like no other. Their mother even told him that Elenor usually never accepts help from anyone.

Ever since, they have been the bestest of friends.

Cameos
In Road to Phoenie, when Bonnie, Cleon and Midori stayed at the Inn for two nights, and Iris was there too. He was very playful with Bonnie and even gave him his number. The three noticed the truth of the relationship of Elenor and Iris very quickly.

Elenor
Elenor is Iris’ best friend. He loves how they treat him like a normal customer, but at the same time always takes care of him to the best extent. Iris sees how stressed and exhausted Elenor is, so he tries his best to cheer them up, to distract them from work and pleasure his needs. Iris has no idea that the emotion he feels for Elenor is love.

Mullins
Despite being a regular at the Inn, his relationship to Mullins is a rather distant and professional.

The Royal Family
Iris has a distant relationship to his family. He has never known it differently, so he isn’t sad about it.

Trivia

 * Iris thinks of himself as Aromantic, which is why he doesn’t realize his true feelings towards Elenor.
 * He used to have a knight, but she no longer works for him as he truly has no need for a knight.
