Appearance
Sage has a tall stature. He has dark curls, a sharp jaw, and tanned skin. Compared to Oxley, he has rounder eyes and pointier nose.

Personality
Sage is an insecure person due to the public constantly watching and judging his every move. He has to always look good outside of his bedroom in case a picture of him was leaked to the tabloids. As a result of this, he was scared and panicked when Taro knew of his "not so straight" situation. He is also a pessimist due to having trust issues with the press. Non-formal conversations scared him as he never knew what real intentions were in those he barely knew, especially if they involve the papers. While interviewing Taro, Sage thought that he shouldn't even be in the interview in case Taro had a recorder or a secret camera, or planned to run to the papers about him. He is also not a social creature.

Sage is also a patient person who guided Taro on how to be a proper valet, and recognised Taro's effort on arriving punctually and ironing his funeral suit while Osier complained about his incompetencies. He was not overly unreasonable, according to Taro, and was "quite obviously making an effort to give [Taro] more chances than [he] deserved."

Background
When Sage's grandfather died, he cried at the funeral. The press took very close-up pictures and videos, turning his sorrow into a weakness. This was the first bad press he had received, and he took it hard, suing everyone he could for defamation of character.

Trivia

 * He sometimes pretended that he was a worker of the Palace, a simple person with a simple life.
 * Wine makes him bolder and more dramatic.
 * Sage is named after sage, a perennial, evergreen subshrub, with woody stems, grayish leaves, and blue to purplish flowers. (Salvia officinalis)
