Heine Wittgenstein is the main character of The Royal Tutor. He is an adult man who looks like a child because of his short height and young-looking face, which often causes people to mistake him for a boy.

He was chosen by King Viktor von Glanzreich to become the royal tutor and teach the four princes everything they need to be a good king. Heine is gentle and calm, with a mysterious past—once working as a teacher at a church and even being wrongly accused of kidnapping and trying to kill the king. He also hides the fact that he belongs to a minority group called the Cubel people and was once a leader in their community. Heine’s quick thinking, secretive background, and strong sense of justice make him truly unique.
