Personal history

Also known as Orlando, Roland is the paladin leader of the Twelve Paladins of Charlemagne. He’s a young, pious hero who gained popularity through the Song of Roland & Orlando Furioso. Recognized as one of the most popular & renowned of the Paladins, he is famed for being the wielder of Durandal that he received from Charlemagne. The sword appeared in various other legends revolving around Charlemagne, & it eventually became a symbol of Roland's bravery. However, he’s a bit weak in regards to romance, & acts out in madness when rejected. He holds the monstrous strength to tear a man apart with his bare hands, & his skin is said to be as tough as diamond. In addition to other things, he was brave enough to smash an orc terrorizing the seaside with an anchor. However, when he abandons his mission halfway & chases after a beautiful woman named Angelica, it’s a bit disappointing to watch. Nonetheless, up to this point, he falls within the category of ‘valiant paladin’. Roland was said to have fallen in love with the beautiful queen Angelica, but she rejected the idea of falling in love & eloping with a "mere soldier" out of her pride. This caused Roland to go mad, throwing off all his clothes and rampaging around while nude. During his rampage, Astolfo & the other Paladins worked hard to capture him. Astolfo notably dressed as a woman during the episode, wearing such clothing to calm & appease Roland. He says the hair ornaments worn during that period are an "irresistible proof of friendship" between the two. Astolfo eventually brought him a bottle of reason from the moon & restored his sanity. Roland was trapped by the resentment of his stepfather Ganelon. Although he & other Twelve Paladins of Charlemagne fought hard, the enemy army was 400,000 strong against 20,000 of their own troops. Heroes fell one after another in the face of overwhelming numbers. When Roland was on the verge of death, he made an attempt to break Durandal to keep it from falling into enemy hands, but its indestructible nature did not allow for that. Roland wouldn’t blow the horn to call for reinforcements until the very end. Oliver blamed him for getting lost during a life-or-death situation, & when he asked if Roland wanted to prove the superiority of his heroism, Roland responded: “―――It’s a stupid reason. No matter how much I want to, I just can’t blow it. I still can’t believe the betrayal of the man who called himself my father.” This ridiculous, good-natured man, who had experience tragic love & knew how to harbor harsh resentment, could never get used to being betrayed by someone he believed in. When he and everyone else was on the verge of defeat, he held his horn high and blew with regret. His body covered with blood, blowing so hard that his brains were spilling out, he fought for a little longer before perishing. Convincing himself that this horn would bring about the death of his stepfather――― The message of the horn that Roland blew with his dying breath arrived, & Charlemagne arrived with reinforcements, but they hadn’t been able to reach the Twelve Paladins in time, & it’s said that most of them died in the battle. Roland killed King Agrican, Mandricardo's father, at one point in time.
