Axel Syrios

Axel Syrios is a male English Virtual YouTuber endorsed by hololive's branch HOLOSTARS English. He is a member of "TEMPUS" alongside Regis Altare, Magni Dezmond and Noir Vesper.

Profile
The chief of human resources in Adventurer’s Guild TEMPUS. He is the owner of the combat arena, and a gladiator himself. He joined Tempus on a whim, only to take a real liking to it. Has always swiftly resolved any problems he has faced by sheer instinct, and thus considers himself somewhat of a doctor. “Doctors resolve the root cause of a problem, right?Well, I destroy it. So I am a doctor.”

Personality
Axel is a confident, cheeky, and at times dense gladiator. His genmates in TEMPUS often mock his blockheadedness which matches him having the lowest intelligence stat. However, despite this, Axel can provide great advice and commentary when needed as shown in his visual novel streams such as YTTD. He's confident in his abilities yet humble at the same time, always thanking his fans for their support. He can be quite mischevious, calling his pranks a 'heehee haha' moment.
