Adolphine

Adolphine (アドルフィーネ, Adorufiine) is an archduke candidate from Drewanchel who currently attends the Royal Academy.

She is the older sister of Ortwin and a friend of Eglantine’s. After her graduation, she is expected to marry Prince Sigiswald.

Adolphine had wine-red hair.

After Rozemyne's return to the Royal Academy, Ehrenfest sends out invitations to all duchies for a final tea party before the Interduchy Tournament. Due to a limit on the number of people they can accommodate, they ask that each duchy only send one person (and their retainers) to attend.

Adolphine’s younger brother Ortwin wants to attend, but Adolphine is eager to meet Rozemyne after hearing about her from their mutual friend Eglantine, and claims the spot for herself.

At the tea party, Adolphine compliments Rozemyne on achieving such high grades despite spending two full years asleep in a jureve. She also praises the taste of the new sweets invented in Ehrenfest and takes home a small jar of rinsham as a gift from Rozemyne.

After Prince Anastasius' managed to secure his engagement with Eglantine and Prince Sigiswald withdrawing his proposal to her, Sigiswald instead proposes to Adolphine and the two are now engaged to be married.

When Adolphine returns to the Royal Academy the next year, her hair is considerably more shiny and glossy, but not to the full extend of what rinsham can achieve. From this Rozemyne suspects that rather than using it for herself, Adolphine allowed her sample of rinsham to be examined by researchers from her home and that they successfully managed to make a version of their own. Though judging by the looks of Adolphine's hair, their product has yet to reach the level of quality of Ehrenfest rinsham.

At their greeting she also lightly tries to pry information regarding the verification paper utilized for merchant's permits from Rozemyne, calling it a magic tool, which hints that so far their researchers have not yet been able to crack it's secrets.

Spoiler from Part 4 Volume 6 Despite her status, her skills at whirling and being engaged to the successor of the king, Adolphine surprisingly is not the one to perform the role of the Goddess of Light during her graduation ceremony, but rather the role of Schutzaria. In a talk with Lady Rozemyne during a shared whirling lesson she states that in her mind only Eglantine is fit to dance the part. This combined with Adolphine's skills in Dedication Whirl being very obviously above those of the girl chosen to dance the part of the Goddess of Light makes it very likely she turned down the chance for the more prestigeous role of her own accord.
