Lebreau Fermet Viralesque

Lebreau Fermet Viralesque (ラブロ・フェルメット・ヴェラレスク, Raburo Ferumetto Veraresuku) was one of the original immortals and guardian to the orphaned Czeslaw Meyer. However, after torturing the boy for an unknown (but apparently long) period of time, he was devoured. Somehow he survived this devouring and a devouring by another alchemist, before said alchemist was eaten by Szilard. He is the mastermind behind the 2002 storyline and 1700s tragedies.

Appearance
Fermet has brown hair with long bangs that cover his eyes. Beyond this feature, his appearance is described as nondescript.



Personality
Although he appeared to be a calm and loving figure, Fermet hid underneath this charade a much darker nature. He is a cruel sadist who tortured Czeslaw for years on end. According to Czezlaw, after he devoured him, Fermet only cared about his pain. Fermet also appears to most to be a humble person often quoting his own faults and dark nature, this leads many to believe he is self-condemning when in fact he is only stating the truth. Fermet is very intelligent having been the mastermind behind the 1700s tragedies. He voted that Maiza keep the secret of the Grand Panacea to himself, noting that it would be possible to reveal it at a later time, showing some insight, but it is unknow if he planned to aquire it later or if he lost interest having become immortal himself.

Abilities
Fermet is an extremely good actor, strategist, and manipulator, even earning Dalton's praise as a genius. He managed to convince everyone in his workshop and Lotto Valentino that he was a very kind person, all the while having been behind the tragedies that occurred in the early 1700s.

He seems to be well versed in torture as seen with what he did with Czeslaw Meyer, however his knowledge doesn't seem to include more advanced levels of pain as noted by the Rail Tracer.

Immortality
Further Information: Immortals

On the Advenna Avis Fermet drank the Grand Panacea and obtained true immortality, meaning that he cannot age, get sick, be injured, or die via conventional means. The only way to truly kill an immortal is for another immortal to devour him or her, but somehow Fermet manages to survive being devoured twice.

Biography
Fermet was the last student of Czeslaw Meyer's grandfather, and already knew Begg Garotto and Dalton before the events of the series, having known the former from the same teacher and having met Dalton at least once already.

Lebreau Fermet Viralesque was an alchemist fledged shortly before the events of 1705 and either started or set into motion the masterminded tragedies in the 1700s storyline. After Czeslaw Meyer lost his parents, Fermet adopted him.

1705: The Ironic Light Orchestra
Though not stated explicitly, it is possible that Fermet was responsible for the deaths of Czeslaw's grandparents and parents. While he does not appear personally in this book, he is mentioned as "Lebreau," (his first name) first by Dalton to Zank Rowan and Denkuro as a "Rookie". Later tells Maiza Avaro that Fermet will be adopting Czeslaw Meyer and that he'd be helping him.

1710: Crack Flag
Fermet appears at a party in the Avaro House as the guardian of six year old Czeslaw Meyer, the son of his alchemic teacher who had just passed away. During the party Fermet, Maiza, and Jean-Pierre engage in the conversation on the secrets of immortality. Most of them dismissed this as a fraud until they were able to witness the "death" of Dalton at the library. Fermet continues to play a part in the events by telling the playwright Jean-Pierre Accardo the events of both Huey Laforet and Monica Campanella's childhood. Jean-Pierre writes two plays about these events and has them performed in Lotto Valentino. Fermet disrupts Huey's hope of freeing Monica from her imprisonment by killing her.

1931: Another Junk Railroad - Special Express Episode
In this book, it is revealed that Fermet was a stowaway on the train like Rachel, though he has no impact on the events that take place during this arc.

2002: (B Side) Blood Sabbath
Despite having apparently been eaten by Czes and another alchemist who was later devoured by Szilard, Fermet remains alive in the 21st century. He is the mastermind behind the 2002 incident, and although he claims he did so to keep his life interesting, his specific motives are unknown. His full name is revealed to be Lebreau Fermet Viralesque, and he somehow overcomes the no aliases rule by going by parts of his name. It is revealed that Fermet is the mastermind behind many tragic incidents in the 1700 stories.

Relationships
Czeslaw Meyer- Sometime after they became immortal, Fermet began to "experiment" on Czeslaw by torturing him, claiming that this was all in the name of determining the limits of immortality; Czes reports that Fermet's memories show that he was actually motivated by pure sadism. This went on for an unknown number of years before Czes managed to slip his right hand out of his bindings and devour Fermet. However in the the 2002 novel, he somehow survives this devouring and lives till the 21st century.

Firo Prochainezo- Firo has the memories of a man named Lebreau who was devoured by an alchemist who was devoured by Szilard, who was later devoured by Firo. Somehow, Fermet was able to escape being devoured by this alchemist, although Firo still retains some memories of "Lebreau" even though he is still alive. Firo tries to avoid these memories, and states that he will endeavor to not become like Lebreau, even though he retains his memories.
