Flügel appears as a grown man with a golden monocle covering his right eye. Initially he had long, white hair, and wore armored boots and a black trench coat adorned with clocks. After being Data Drained by Kite, his character has black hair, and wears only a dress shirt, slacks, suspenders, and tie. A single clock remains on the side of his collar. Because members of Schicksal use altered PCs, it is assumed this is how Flügel's character looked before it was altered. He wields a gun called Brieler Rössle, the Divine Spear of Nachtmart, and is often seen chewing candy.

Flügel has a generally carefree attitude. He doesn't seem to mind many things, but when he's interested in something, he shows more determination than anyone in Schicksal.
