Heiter Husbando

Heiter was the alcohol-loving priest of the Hero Party. After the Hero Party was dissolved, he returned to the Holy City and eventually became a bishop. Heiter had very good health, which allowed him to live a very long life by human standards, even despite his passion for alcohol. In his last remaining years, he adopted the orphan Fern and raised her. When Frieren came to visit him twenty years after Himmel's death, he asked Frieren to adopt Fern and train her as her apprentice. Heiter was an outwardly cheerful man who often diffused tense situations with his laughter and jokes about his inclination towards alcohol. He was easily moved to tears, both when things happened to the party or when he was hungover. However, inwardly Heiter was shown to be cynical about their odds of defeating the Demon King. As a child, this manifested in jealousy towards Himmel and he often outwardly expressed his doubts about being able to defeat monsters or eventually defeat the Demon King. However, he eventually decided that even if he could not believe in himself, he would believe in Himmel. As Himmel notes, from a young age, Heiter has always been very pious. Heiter was shown to be shrewd, as he was able to leverage Frieren's perception of time to trick her into staying and training Fern long enough for her to become a mage capable of traveling with Frieren.
