Appearance
Count Atismata's appearance has not been revealed.

Personality
From what has been shown of his personality, Count Atismata was a ruthless person. When his daughter was kidnapped, he chose to abandon her rather than stop his opposition to the Old Empire. He was also prepared to slaughter the entire imperial family during his rebellion, even though some of them were his allies.

History
Count Atismata had a wife and two daughters: the elder being Lisesharte and the younger being Almatea. At some point, his wife died of illness.

Many years before the present (and before the rebellion), Count Atismata objected to the Old Empire's policies. Lisesharte was kidnapped as a hostage, but he refused to stop his opposition to the empire.

Five years before the present, Count Atismata and several other nobles began the rebellion by inciting uprisings and skirmishes with the Old Empire's army. He gained the cooperation of two members of the imperial family, Lux and Fugil Arcadia, promising to treat the family fairly. In truth, he planned to kill the entire imperial family, even his allies. After three weeks, they proceeded towards the capital and fought the imperial army. This was merely a diversion for the true attack: Lux and Fugil infiltrating the castle to capture the imperial family and then let the rebels in.

However, the count was unaware of his sister being in a relationship with Waybra Hemt, an advisor to the emperor Diseld Arcadia. She revealed the rebellion's plan to Waybra to let him escape, but Waybra passed this information to the emperor. With this information, Diseld's forces were able kill Count Atismata. They also attacked the Atismata family hideout, massacring the servants and capturing Almatea as a slave. The rebellion would have failed, but Fugil used Ouroboros to rewrite people's perceptions to make the rebellion succeed.

After his death, Count Atismata became famous as the hero who toppled the Old Empire. His sister Raffi became the queen of the New Kingdom Atismata which replaced the Old Empire, while Lisesharte was adopted by Raffi and became the crown princess, both thanks to her their relationship with the count. Raffi's betrayal and Lisesharte's abandonment by her father were both kept secret. Almatea escaped from slavery and joined the criminal Kilzrake Family, becoming a high-ranking member. When she participates in a rebellion against the New Kingdom, she announces her relationship to Count Atismata to lend credence to her position.
