Landius is the primary protagonist of Langrisser IV and the only protagonist in the series who is not a Descendant of Light.

He was born in Recrio village, a riverside hamlet on the frontier of the Regenburg Federation. Recrio was a village inhabited by both humans and Crimzonian Landers. Landius and his sister Emily are washed away from the village when Aizel floods the village to wipe out the Crimzonians Landers.

He is rescued downstream by the people of Gotahl Village and raised by the village chief, together with his foster siblings Ricky and Rachel.

As part of his plot to get the Sage's Crystal, Gizlof levies a huge tax on Gotahl and drives the villagers to revolt. He and Ricky are the only ones to escape Kreuger and his men slaughter everyone in the village. During the chaos, Gizlof kidnaps Rachel when he recognizes her potential as a pilot for his powered Guyframe.

After rescuing the princesses of Caconsis, Shelfaniel and Angelina, he becomes commander of a Caconsis guerrilla squad created by Wiler.

He is chased out of Caconsis when King Caconsis forms an alliance with the demon tribe on the advice of General Bruno, who is possessed by the demon Glaaz. The possessed Glaaz murders King Caconsis, and continues on to possess the Regenburg Chancellor and eventually Emily.

On the advice of Jessica, Landius harnesses the power of Langrisser without the support of Lushiris in order to drive out Glaaz and save his sister. He fights on to bring an end to the chaotic ambitions of Gizlof and Böser.

After bringing peace to Yeless, Landius becomes the Ambassador of Caconsis and works with his sister, who is promoted to general, to maintain peace on the continent. When civil war erupts in Regenburg, he helps Emily to break Ranford out of prison and escort him to Caconsis.

Landius is the only character in the series, even among the Crimzonians, who is able to harness the power of the complete Langrisser despite not being a Descendant of Light.
