Argenti/Story
Last updated 2026-09-05
Forthright and candid, he wanders the cosmos espousing the virtues of Idrila's good name.
Profile
Argenti is a member of the Knights of Beauty. He believes that Idrila is not dead, but has simply disappeared, and travels the cosmos to spread the teachings of Beauty.
Appearance
Argenti is a tall man with red, waist-length hair and two strands in front that reach his chest. He has green eyes with reddish-pink pupils, and a few sparkles in his eyes.
He wears a classic knight outfit, which is black on the inside with a light silver breastplate with golden tips, gauntlets, cuisses, vambraces, sabatons, and pauldrons. The left pauldron is shaped as a rose in the middle with golden wing-shaped details from the sides. He also wears a red underbust corset in the inside with a red fabric that is wrapped around his waist, but has a large slit in the middle-back, two slits at the sides, and also has golden tips at each end of the fabric, along a thin red fabric that reaches his thigh, hanging from his left shoulder with a golden ornament and a large one at the end of the fabric.
History
During his childhood, Argenti's hometown was plagued by war for multiple years.[1] After leaving his hometown, he was taken by an elderly master, who taught him the way of Beauty and eventually lead him to becoming a knight.[2][3]
After the Astral Express crew decided to visit a Washtopia, they run into Argenti after he had saved the IPC employee Velite from a group of the Swarm. The Express discovers they've been swallowed by a giant Swarm, from which they break free after Argenti leaves the Express to battle the giant bug.[4]
The Knights of Beauty were one of the factions invited to the Charmony Festival, however they hadn't yet responded to the invite when the Astral Express arrived on Penacony.[5] Argenti, as the representative of the Knights of Beauty, arrived late to the planet due to various detours and saved Aventurine from the Primordial Dreamscape.[6] The Trailblazer and Firefly also have a chance of running into him during "Superstar Showdown."[7]
Argenti later visited Kalevala and discovered the cursed sword Guyun. He pulled the sword out and heard its story, returning it to the Luofu. When Guyun heard what would happen to them, he asked that Argenti steal them, resulting in the Trailblazer and Yunli pursuing them. Yunli gains the sword back after defeating Argenti in a duel, who asks Yunli to hear the sword out. Yunli, learning of the sword's past, decided to honor its last request and reforged it into a guzheng, while Argenti and Dahao scouted Aurum Alley. As punishment for "stealing" the sword, Huaiyan had him guard the guzheng and golden sapling and recite the story of the hero and sword to passers-by, which he gladly accepted as to spread the message of Beauty to the Xianzhou people. Once the punishment concluded, Argenti departed the Luofu.[8]
During Planarcadia's Holy Grail War, Argenti became a follower of Ishtar after battling her and believing her to be a follower of Idrila. He then duelled the Traiblazer and Rin Tohsaka, telling them about Ishtar's plan after losing.[9]
