Julius Will Kresnik

Julius Will Kresnik is a non-playable character in Tales of Xillia 2. He is a brother of Ludger Will Kresnik who will do anything in his power to protect him from Bisley Bakur.

Past
Julius was born as the son of Bisley Karcsi Bakur and Cornelia Kresnik. Later, Bisley encounters Chronos along with Cornelia, but the woman is killed in the battle. After learning about his mother's death, Julius leaves the household. Later, Julius found Claudia Il Kresnik by chance when Ludger was five. Claudia mistook Julius as Bisley's subordinate and attacked him in an attempt to protect her son who was born with the chromatus power that Bisley would use, but she was killed instead. Ludger, shocked after witnessing his mother's death, lost part of his memory. After knowing Bisley's plan, Julius took Ludger with him to Marvin, Claudia's father, who adopted the two and altered the family registry to hide Ludger's existence from Bisley. Originally, Julius had planned to use Ludger by using his unawakened Chromatus powers through his watch; however, after seeing the affection displayed by his half-brother, Julius chose to instead protect Ludger rather than use him.

Plot
Julius is in charge of his brother's entry exam to Spirius Corporation, but he orchestrates a situation with a man and a monster which results in his brother's failure as a way to protect Ludger from Bisley.

Appearance and Personality
Julius has short light brown hair on top of his head with short dark brown hair on its back and sides. He has blue eyes and wears rectangular glasses. He wears a white shirt, light blue vest, and white coat with blue underlining. He also wears dark blue pants and white shoes. On his left hand he wears a black glove to hide a burn that Ludger accidentally inflicted upon him when they were younger.

Julius is very secretive about his true motives and work he does at Spirius Corporation, something which puts Ludger down. He is also very protective of his brother, even going as far as to use himself as a shield when Chronos attempts to kill him. He also strongly despises Bisley doing anything he can to prevent his arrival at the Land of Canaan.
