Baron Caroline

Baron Caroline (カロライン) is the father of Thors Military Academy second-year Theresia. Throughout Trails of Cold Steel and Trails of Cold Steel II, he is seen expressing his concerns regarding his daughter to Baron Wodan.

Background
Baron Caroline's primary concern is that his daughter Theresia's friendship with Emily of the Lacrosse Club causes her to forget her pride as a noble. He personally wanted her to enter St. Astraia Girls' School, but they came to an agreement for her to enter Thors Military Academy, a well-regarded academy nonetheless.

Over time, he learns that Emily comes from a rather wealthy family in Heimdallr with connection to its local government. His friend, Baron Wodan in turn criticises Baron Caroline for his indecisiveness but concludes that his concerns for his daughter do qualify him as a parent.

Once Theresia decides to board the Courageous in, Baron Caroline completely loses his composure. He continues to blame Emily for her bad influence. He also considers that their family's status is not high enough to have a say in how the Erebonian Civil War should be fought. He also blames Class VII for their role in the arrest of Duke Albarea, which foritified Theresia's will to board the Courageous. She strongly disagrees with all of her father's argument and engages in multiple heated discussions with him.

Ultimately, thanks to Class VII's mediation, Baron Caroline allows Theresia to board the Courageous and requests of "Lady Emily" to take care of Theresia in his stead.
