Just to keep it short, he's the ultimate family man and the greatest strategist Fodlan had ever seen until Claude introduced Almyran dishonorable tactics to the continent. He's a stoic by necessity because Rhea is one bad day away from becoming the Immaculate One. When he's accused of being stern or uninteresting, it's because he's doing his best to hide how much he cares about others and wants people to be happy and successful. His supports with Felix show just how intensely the loss of his wife and almost losing Flayn affected him.

He's also canonically absurdly handsome, where many historical writers were dumbfounded he (when he was known as Cichol) only took one woman as his lover instead of having a harem of women.
