* Title/Position/Occupation(s): Prince of Valtara, Mayor of Blackthorn (formerly), Triumvir of Ceyreto (formerly)
 
Lord Valtara, disgraced heir of the Valtara dynasty, is the de-facto leader of the Triumvirate of Ceyreto and Emilia's liege for much of the first three journals. He is generally displayed as gentle and merciful ruler, being responsible for Emilia's position as Foreign Minister. On the other hand, he's displayed as a somewhat distant figure, keeping many happenings that would concern the fate of the city to himself.
 
Lord ValtaraHe is the illegitimate grandchild of the current reigning Valtaran king, and fought a lengthy civil war to maintain both his power within Blackthorn and his legitimacy within the Valtara dynasty. In ''Year of the Rat'', he is exiled to the infamous Black Maze for his crimes against the dynasty, a labyrinth underneath Blackthorn.
 
Lord Valtara is a rather tall figure, standing at 6' 2, with dark brown hair and brooding grey eyes. He typically wears a long dusty brown coat and a mask covering the lower parts of his face. He seems to keep this attire throughout most of the day, even in rather inappropriate situations.
Line 119:
 
He's comparatively young compared to most figures that Emilia meets throughout the series and has a rather innocent looking appearance to match, appearing as a simple red-haired young-adult boy with antlers. Notably, he is described by Emilia as "the most pettable-looking diplomat that [she'd] ever seen".
 
In ''Ghosts'', Emilia describes Dolo directly as being like "a little nephew, the kind you'd see maybe once every few months and take out on a trip into the city.'''"'''

He meets with Emilia during a walk through the Faewood at night, reflecting on the state of affairs within his own time and the present day. Before disappearing, he gives expresses his confidence in Emilia's leadership, before giving her a green gem.
