Lilia may be intentionally styling himself to appear as cute and unimposing as possible. In a voice line he says that, while the long sleeves of his oversized lab wear coat do get in his way...
...he deals with it because "It's cuter this way", and Silver says that “Lilia prides himself on his cuteness”.
Lilia describes himself as “one seriously mysterious and attractive boy” (using the word “bishounen” in the original Japanese), and as one of the top--
--three low-key guys at the school, with Kalim and Cater. He explains that he actively tries to “act like Diaomnia’s adorable mascot”, though he “was once a feared captain in Briar Valley”.
During the Phantom Bride event, Lilia is rejected by Eliza for being “too cute by half”.
According to the game guide,
“His natural hair color is black. One part of his bangs has been dyed pink and not the underside, but the rest of his hair from the sides to the back of his bob is all dyed pink underneath."
"He changes the color depending on his mood, so sometimes it is different.
He has fangs like a vampire.
He generally doesn’t get very angry. Even when he is angry, it’s never overly so. He gets angry about trivial things. Like if someone ate the ice cream he’d been saving…”
Lilia has several cryptic lines referring to the passage of time, saying “What we live through today will be a fond memory all too soon”, “Bonds between people never truly fade. They continue on throughout our lives"—
--"And, in time, new ties are forged, even without any intention on your part. That’s how life is. But the more previous a bond, the more pain it can inflict. Why do you think that is? As long as I’ve lived, I still haven’t found the answer.”
He tells Cater that Cater’s decision to not get too close to any one person may make him the wiser one.
He also tells Vil that “one night for me passes like a few seconds might pass for the rest of you”.

An original culture woven into costume
An element of Twisted Wonderland that has had the most heart poured into it is the costume design.
Toboso Yana explains the struggles behind creating entirely unique designs meant to reinterpret the worlds of the movies upon which--

The Passion of Toboso Yana, the Creator of the Game’s Concept and Characters
Where did the inspiration for the world and characters of "Disney's Twisted Wonderland" come from?
The person who painstakingly took care of every creative element and--
Epel runs away and explains how Vil has forbade him from speaking in his natural dialect and forces him to wear “frilly uniform shirts”.
While venting his frustrations to Deuce he receives a phone call from his mother--
--who reveals that Vil has promoted the apple juice produced by their village on his Magicam, saving them from a financially unstable situation.
Epel returns and tells Vil that while “Deep down, (he’s) always looked down on people who care about being cute or charming”--
--he finally understands what Vil meant when he talked about power.
Vil responds, “There is one form of power that can bring people to their knees. It is more overwhelming than violence, more eloquent than word. I speak, of course, of beauty…"
Vil’s first interaction with Epel is when Epel—deciding to be preemptively aggressive to keep from being bullied like he was back home—insults Vil by saying he is “feeble like a woman”.
On the NA-server these comments--
--(and Vil calling Epel “adorable”) were changed.
Vil beats Epel in a magicless, physical fight and explains, “In this school, the rule is that the weak obey the strong…since you lost, you will do as I say.”
Vil insists on Epel--
--improving his appearance, his impolite way of speaking and his attitude, saying “if you want to voice a grievance, you’ll have to beat me in a fight first.”
This interaction forms the foundation for the relationship between the two, where Vil--
Malleus seems to have a fondness for Vil: when he learns the player will not be participating in the VDC he follows up with, “But Schoenheit and Asim will be in it? Heh. That should be quite the spectacle”.
Malleus also banters with Vil after his overblot, saying, “You seems to have has a bit of sport, yourself. However did you become such a mess? You’re hardly living up to the Fairest Queen’s spirit.”
Vil concedes that he’s “not wrong”, and--
--Malleus repairs the damage done to the coliseum as a favor for Vil, saying, “You owe me, Schoenheit” and “I’ve set the stage for you, Schoenheit. I trust you will keep me suitably entertained.”
When Vil says he hardly need Malleus’ urging to put on the finest possible show--
