To think that not so long ago, my ancestor's flag was waving above Paris...

—Armand, "Darkblade"

Armand D'Argencourt is a minor character of Miraculous: Tales of Ladybug & Cat Noir. He is a fencing and PE teacher at Collège Françoise Dupont.[3]

In "Darkblade", after losing Paris' mayoral election to André Bourgeois and being publicly humiliated for it, Hawk Moth infected him with an Akuma, transforming him into Darkblade, a medieval knight supervillain.

In "Representation", following André Bourgeois's resignation of his position as Mayor of Paris, Armand once again ran for the candidacy against former teacher Caline Bustier. And in "Re-creation", he lost the election to the former.

Appearance

Physical appearance

Armand is a tall, thin and muscular man with a small amount of dark brown hair atop his head and blue eyes. He has a long and narrow chin with a large curly mustache.

Civilian attire

He wears a white fencing outfit, with thin red, white, and blue lines on the sides. On top of it, he wears a black fencing guard that is attached with two gray straps. On the left side of the guard, there is a silver shield symbol with a black phoenix-like creature. He also wears white boots that end below the kneecaps with thin red, white, and blue lines over the toes. When he is fencing, he uses a white fencing mask.

As Darkblade

Darkblade wore a full suit of dark gray armor, some parts of it having lighter gray with dark gray stripes. The visor on his helmet had four red leaf-shaped marks, and the helmet's comb was large and red, its shape a bit zigzagged. The besagues had red curled outlined designs on them, and on the center of the breastplate, there was a red family crest design with a black outline and a black phoenix-like creature inside. His couter, poleyns, and the end of the sabatons were pointed. His sword was large, with a silver and dark gray striped hilt and a dark gray blade with red lines making a design on each side. At the middle of the cross-guard, there was the same family crest symbol as the breastplate, except with inverted colors. It glowed when it was shooting energy.

Personality

DB S01EP12 (156)

Armand teaching Adrien.

Armand is a serious and proper man who is inspired by the ideals of knights from the medieval ages, and he is bitter with how underhanded tactics resulted in his ancestor losing his rule over Paris. He didn't run for mayor of Paris because he wanted revenge, but he is frustrated with his loss to André Bourgeois and how everyone takes him for a man obsessed with medieval times, whether true or not. To Adrien Agreste and his other fencing students, he is challenging, but good at teaching them and helping them improve.

As Darkblade, he was commanding and obsessed with conquering Paris. Power-hungry and enraged with the current government system, Darkblade wanted to take over the country his ancestors lost centuries before, and he had nothing against turning everyone into knights that would follow him to victory.

Abilities

As a civilian

Armand is very skilled at fencing, and is knowledgeable enough about it to be a teacher. A special move he uses, which was created by his ancestor Darkblade, involves pretending to be open for attack, just to suddenly fight back and knock the opponent's weapon away.

As Darkblade

Darkblade was able to create energy from the shield symbol in the middle of the cross-guard of his sword and shoot it into people's eyes. His victims knelt down, and then he touched their left and right shoulder with his sword as a way of knighting them. After that, the victims glowed bright green and transformed into knights wearing dark gray armor with bright green designs on their epaulets and helmets. Each knight carried a dark gray and neon green battle axe, the blade being green with a black design and the handle having the family crest of Darkblade where it was connected with the blade. All of the knights were in full armor and have the same size, height, and attitude regardless of their previous proportions or personalities. Under Darkblade's control, the knights followed his orders and did any action he required of them. Darkblade could also transform a vehicle, with the same process that he uses for his knights, into an old-fashioned catapult. He also had improved swordfighting abilities, and he still liked to use the Darkblade technique.

Additionally, if Darkblade managed to plant his family's flag on top of the City Hall, a dark cloud spreaded over Paris. After the cloud stopped expanding, it created a circular black barrier on the extremity that shrunk inwards, turning everyone it passed through into his knights. They would glow dark green and stand up when struck. The knights would begin marching to him, awaiting instructions.

  • Armand is the French variant of the German Herman, meaning "army man" or "army's man".
    • D'Argencourt is a combination of the German word argen ("bad") and court, preceded by the suffix "D'", denoting a place the person in question is from; together, it means "of/from the bad court".
      • D'Argencourt might also be a pun on the French expression à court d'argent, which means "short of money".
