Nickname (Optional): Your Majesty, Her Majesty

Age: 39

Role: Queen Of Leston

Title (If Applicable): Her Royal Majesty, Queen Almina of Leston

Gender: Female

Sexuality: Straight

Appearance Description (One Paragraph, At Least): Almina has long brown hair that is usually piled on top of her head in an intricate updo. When her hair is down, it is usually braided. She tends to only keep it down and in the braid when she is sleeping, though. Her hair is naturally curly. She has light blue eyes and a slim waist, helped by the use of a corset. She is also rather tall.

Clothing Description (One Paragraph, At Least): Almina only wears dresses, as she believes all women should. She likes dresses with bright and bold colors, often ones with intricate designs. She often wears flat-healed shoes or ones with a very short heal. She wears a corset from the time she gets dressed to for the day until she goes to bed. She does not find them uncomfortable as she has been wearing them since she was sixteen and has gotten used to them.

Personality (Two Paragraphs, At Least): Almina is a kind woman if you are on her good side. Be on her bad side, however, and she will be your worst enemy. She does not like people who pose a threat to her in power. She treats those who deserve respect with respect, and does not do so with those who don't deserve it. She expects respect from everyone though, as everyone needs to respect the queen. If one doesn't, one find it an easy way to get on her bad side.

Almina has a temper, and it is quite easy to set it off. She does not like being told what to do, as she believes since she is the queen, she should be telling others what to do. She likes power and is always looking to for more. She believes since she has daughters, she can marry them off to foreign princes and get the power she so desperately wants. She is a very charming woman and charismatic, something useful when plotting peoples downfall.

Bio (Two Paragraphs, At Least): Almina is the only daughter, and child of the late King of Leston. She grew up learning how to be king and queen. She married Francis, a younger son of a foreign king, who became Prince Consort up their marriage. They had a happy marriage. For a while, at least. During her pregnancy's, his eyes began wandering and he took up a few mistresses. By the time she had her last child, he had no interest in her. After the birth of their youngest child, Euphrosyne, King Francis died.

She has reigned alone ever since. She has been a fairly good leader, despite people questioning her inability to lead due to her gender. She made sure to have her sons trained to be good leaders and her daughters trained to act like good princesses to make good marriages. She has her secret, of course, like everyone else in her court. But she has still managed to run her kingdom. And she has done so with keeping her secret in tact.

BASICS
Name: Yesenia Isadora Tassis
Nickname: Sen
Age: 20
Role: Lady
Title (if applicable): Lady Yesenia Isadora Tassis
Gender: Female
Sexuality: Heterosexual

Appearance Description (one paragraph, at least): Yesenia has a very petite stature with a semi-athletic build although it is on the slim side. Standing at 5'2" and weighing in around 115 lbs, some mistaking her for a young teen instead of a strong woman. Her skin having a golden tint. She has almond shaped eyes framed by long dark lashes. Her features are soft and rounded. She has long wavy raven deep brown hair which can normally be found down although when ever she is in deep thought she'll tie it up with a grey ribbon she keeps around her wristAlthough her hands are small her fingers are thin an long, like that of a piano players. Her lips have a healthy tint of pink to them, and can almost always be found in a smirk.


Clothing Description (one paragraph, at least): As tradition goes, in more formal appearances, Yensenia can almost always be found wearing a type of beaded cap, a see through veil underneath, two strings of white and grey beads that connect to either side of the cap. The color of her gowns mainly consist of the colors white gold, and red, a lover of simplistic styles her gowns are mainly one color with a different color edging. Although on most days she prefers to wear a blouse, pants and riding boots as she finds them far more comfortable, even if it drives some mad.

IN DEPTH
Personality (two paragraphs, at least): Yesenia is a no-nonsense kind of woman. She doesn't take kindly to those her undermine her. Although just because she takes things seriously doesn't mean she doesn't have a sense of humor, no matter how dark it is. If she doesn't agree with you she'll let you have it, having a mouth like a sailor, she could argue up until the next day.

She has a thick exterior which often causes people to turn away from her. Most believing that the only time she ever trusts a human being was with her brother, other than that it is a rare occurrence, earning Yesenia's trust is a marathon in its self. Yesenia bears the burden of her family. Constantly working to make up for her father's disgraced name. Every thing she decides on she keeps in mind of how it reflects on her family although with the pressures from her father's misfortunes there is not much breathing room.

Biography (two paragraphs, at least): Yesenia grew up as the daughter of Laegon Verona and Vhaela Verona (Nee. Valtaris). Her father was an influencer of a small village, having more wealth than the village combined. She was the youngest of three brothers. Her mother died during childbirth and most saw it as a miracle that Yesenia survived without her, being fairly premature. Yesenia was the jewel of her father's eye, a spitting image of her mother, although her brothers held a certain resentment against her. When Yesenia was around 12 years old she lost her eldest brother after a mine collapse. He was sent there to inspect it, as well to make an appearance. Yesenia saw it as irony although she not dare say it a loud.

After her brother's passing, Yesenia's father seemed to become wary of letting anyone of his children leave the protection of their home. Although even its walls could not offer protection of what was to come. Eight years after her brother's passing, a plague engulfed the village taking her brother life. After this Yesenia was sent to live in the castle, with her aunt that resided. Her father going mad, disgracing the families name due to his slanderous comment about the thrown and his short spiral into alcoholism. Even though Yesenia is estranged from her father his history still haunts her today.

Name
Sigismund Clodomir

Nickname(s)
Sigi*
Sir Barley
The Peasant Knight
Traitor

*A name only his wife used.

Age
29

Role
Royal Guard

Title
N/A

Gender
Male

Sexuality
Heterosexual

Appearance Description
Standing at 5'11, Sigismund is taller then some and shorter then others. Neither brawny nor scrawny, Sigismund, much like his height is nothing one writes great saga's about. In fact, within his armor, there is no real way of picking him out from his fellows.. well, save for his unique taste in blade. His brown hair is very long, a feature about himself he let grow because his wife was fond of running her hands through it, it now reaches past his shoulder blades. A thick, but trimmed, dark beard stretches across his jaw, a stark contrast to the other Guard and male members of the nobility who preferred shaved faces or stylish mustache. His eyebrows are thick and strong which, on others would make them look amusing, but thanks to his sharp facial features and prominent hair nearby, it only gives him a rugged, almost untamed visage. His large hands are scarred and home to enough callous for people to mistake him for a farmer upon shaking his hands and his body is home to more then its fair shares of scars including his back which is covered in a great expanse of scars from a whip that was eagerly taken to it years ago.

His amber eyes hold a certain light to them, as if Sigismund has spotted something that others had not and found it slightly amusing. His teeth are even and white, however, he is missing a few teeth in the back. Without his armor, Sigismund stands out at court only due to his more rugged, barbaric, appearance compared to the more civilized and 'modern' style that is now favored within the court, but as he never removes his armor while on duty, this is not an issue.

Clothing Description
When not working within the palace, Sigismund is a man of simple taste, just as he is a man of simple birth, he prefers earthen colors and will wear only loose shirts and simple brown hosen. His long brown hair tied back into a great ponytail with a simple strip of clothe that he keeps in his pockets and he never carries more then a few coins in his pouch at any time, a hunting dagger, pistol and a kriegsmesser hang at his waist.

While inside the palace, and so on duty, Sigismund wears his Royal Guard armor, articulated master-crafted plate armor designed to fit his body and rounded just enough to deflect gunpowder firearms. It has a closed bellows helm with a large plum coming from the top, the more rugged helm further dehumanizing the guards and adding a certain air of authority and fear to them. Unless commanded, he will not remove his helm while on duty, he prefers the dehumanizing and alienating effect it has on others.

Armor of the Royal Guard

Personality
Dutiful || Judgemental || Humorous || Blunt || Tender

Duty is the core of Sigismund, it is not something he aspires to, it is merely a part of who he is. Where others weigh their desires against their duties, there is never such a conflict with Sigismund, to him the choice is always obvious and his first instinct is to do his job and do it correctly. He doesn't like Nobility, he doesn't like the privileges they take even as they mock the loser classes enjoying the superiority they feel whilst giving out their 'charity', but he will defend them, especially the royal line, with his life because he said he would. This has gotten him into trouble as when he discovered another Royal Guard was taking bribes, he subdued the guard and turned him in right there despite the guard, like many, being a son of nobility and therefor shamming him and his family and causing untold levels of scandal because it was his job and he is still hated within the Royal Guard for doing so as, to him, there was never the idea to 'blackmail' him into stopping, to 'talk' to him and convince him to cease in his current path, he broke the law, broke his oath and so was punished. It is important to note that while he takes his oaths of loyalty to the crown with the utmost seriousness, his oath to watch over and protect his daughter, as he swore to his wife, holds far more value to him. This devotion to loyalty and duty has given him a certain reputation as incorruptible but also that of a bore.

The high standards he holds himself to, he holds others to and, as he finds amusing, the nobility tend to fail the standards the most often. The second someone fails his 'standards', depending on the standard, they are disliked or even seen as scum or trash. It is extremely rare for someone to ever redeem themselves after failing to live up to his expectations and due to his blunt nature, if someone ever ask him their opinion of them, he will tell them his honest opinion regardless of their status as he values honesty in others, so how could he do any less? However, when he stumbles, when he fails to meet his high standards, he is his own harshest critic. He will insult himself, mentally berate himself and push himself to ensure it never happens again to the point where some believe he secretly hates himself, and perhaps, there is a kernel of truth in that.

But, Sigismund can be quite amusing. He has a certain dry wit that many find amusing, well, those that do not dislike him or are the target of that sharp tongue. His clever tongue has earned him just as many enemies as it has friends... or... well.. more of the former then the later although he is smart enough to hold his tongue around the nobility and royalty, speaking only when spoken to or commanded and he keeps his responses short and to the point, using the barrier of his armor and dehumanizing effect of his helm to discourage conversation as he has no desire to get close to those 'people'. Tis for the better as mentioned before, Sigismund is a blunt man. He doesn't mince words, he doesn't stop to consider the feelings of the person he is speaking to before making his thoughts and opinions known, as he will say,if they did not want to know they should not have asked. Despite this, Sigismund can be surprisingly tender. This is most often seen with his daughter, nephews, brother or sister-in-law, but he has a large, loving heart. He will often accidentally 'drop' coins near street urchins, forget food near the hungry, leave gifts for the downtrodden or beat down threats to those that cannot do it themselves. He doesn't like people to know or see him do this. His wife used to say he was who he was because he had to protect his heart which was large, beautiful but fragile and so he built walls around him, walls of duty and manned by a harsh tongue.

Biography
The first born son of a baker, Sigismund was born in the life of the tradesmen. His early life was bland and not worth noting, a brother a year younger he wrestled, a doting mother and a strong father who instilled within him the ideals of duty to family and to always keep his word because, at the end of the day, a word was all a man had. Unlike his younger brother, Sigismund was a terrible baker and dreamed of adventure, of service in the army...

But like most young fools, he fell in love, and being the dutiful man he was, he married her at sixteen never having kissed her for that would have been most improper. As he wasn't much of a baker, to support his wife, he did what he always said he would and joined the army, his father surprising him by buying him a commission into the legendary Winged Lancers.. despite never having road a horse in his life. Surrounded by the sounds of merchants and lesser nobles, Sigismund was mocked and laughed at as he struggled to learn the art of the horse, but with a single-minded determination, he succeeded.

While he was not the greatest of the lances, nor the strongest, nor the smartest, he was the bravest. At only 21, he was on tract to become a lieutenant of the Winged Lancers, an unthinkable feat for someone not of noble blood as his hard work and dedication were widely recognized.. when the position was open, Sigismund could almost feel the pride as he expected his promotion.. only to have it handed to another. A new recruit who was the son of a powerful duke. His hard-work had been for nothing, his dedication a waste. It did not matter how great he was at his job for, at the end of the day, he was just the son of a baker. Bitter and angry at the system, he lashed out.. and then was lashed. Having struck the duke's son after he had heard him mock the 'dirty peasant who thought he could ever be anything more then a baker'. Thirty lashes, the amount high for striking both an officer and the heir of a duke, he was left beaten and broken.. and nearly died. But he did not.

A year later, in a battle against a rival power in one of the numerous small border skirmishes, their lieutenant, the son of the duke, had been dismounted. Despite being outnumbered, despite hating the man, despite what had happened, Sigismund turned his horse and charged back into the fray and saved the man he hated more then anything in the world, dragging the bleeding man from the combat. When his lieutenant, eyes barely open already swelling from the blows croaked why,Sigismund told him a single word, duty. After the battle, Sigismund was given leave as his wife was nearing the birth of their child and his lieutenant, in a surprising display of kindness, let him be there for it.

The birth did not go well. His wife tore, and she made him swear an oath, as she lay dying in his arms, that he would protect and love their little girl, and he swore it. Yet again, he was surprised for being a lancer was no job for a man that had to watch his child, the lieutenant spoke to his father, the duke, and he pulled enough strings to gain Sigismund a job as a Royal Guard. The first peasant born Royal Guard in generations as it was a position of honor often held by knights or the second sons of nobles. It let him stay near his daughter and even paid better, he took the job.

He has served faithfully as a Royal Guard since. The majority of the rest of the guard dislike him for being a lowborn, often giving him mock titles such as 'Sir Barley' to reference his lineage of the son of a baker. But it mattered not, mere jest and childish insults would never be enough to stand in his way. As the years past, he realized his family, and his daughter, loved stories of the castle. Of the nobles, servants, of the intrigue and love affairs. So, to indulge them, he started to share stories with them, harmless stories that was akin to gossip.. only true. He did not expect much out of this, but he became more observant as he constantly watched for new stories to amuse them with, and this new found observational skill is what truly turned the rest of the guard against him. He had noticed a fellow guard had been taking bribes and so apprehended him and turned him in. Such a thing simply wasn't done within the palace. It was all about the 'Game'. He should have confronted the guard, had him stop, or better yet, blackmail him and have him work for himself and his 'patron'. But Sigismund did not play their games. He never had and he never would. Instead, he beat down the guard and dragged his bloody body through the castle to the commander and dropped him in his office and handed over the proof. Since then, it is not uncommon for his private quarters, meant to be for when he needs to stay on duty to rest, to have the words 'Traitor' spread on his walls in pigs blood and the word, itself, is carved into the wood of his desk, but it doesn't matter for he will continune to do his duty.


Weapons
While on duty, Sigismund carries a halberd, brace of pistols, thick dagger and his kriegsmesser. Outside of his blade, the rest is the standard armament of the guard.

Name: Anna Bella Moor
Nickname: Miss Abel
Age: 27
Role: Lady in waiting of the queen
Title (if applicable): _
Gender: Female
Sexuality: Heterosexual
Appearance Description:

Having 173cm height, 70kg weight, silky brown hair and light brown eyes, many consider her beautiful and admire her milky skin and plumped pink cheeks, not mentioning her slender waist in contrary with her fat chest… don’t stare at the lady that much! She also has delicately long fingers with soft touch and her feet can mock those that Cinderella was proud of. What else do you expect from a woman?!

Clothing Description:

Anna wears what her queen likes so it’s always long gowns. But she is careful to never reveal more skin than the queen and wears head gears too which seemingly her highness doesn’t care much about. Her under garments are less tight and showy than rest of ladies which makes her look old fashioned but humble. She also avoids wearing too vivid colors like bright yellow, orange and red as she never wishes to become center of attention. She is always trying to stay in shadow of the queen.

Personality:

Anna and her charming smile are famous as she is almost always with the queen when she leaves the palace. People see her loyal, peaceful and smiling face one step behind the queen and like it. She has always been the good girl everywhere she’s been as no matter how hard the situation is, she never sulks or frowns but keeps smiling and tries to make things better for everyone. But secrets are her secret. She loves to have control over people and by finding out their secrets they’ll be her puppets. She started this foul act when she had only 6 and her first victim was her cousin. Currently, she knows secrets of many of servants, especially maids, but still tries to find out about everything the royal family and courtesans hide. She rarely let the victim find out that she knows their secrets. The way to use that information is selling it to those who needed to know them. Her reason she has been so successful this far is that she is so smart and patient.

To this time, no one inside the palace knows that what a vixen Anna can be. She, who shies away from men, can amaze them by her charm if she feels like it’s necessary. And that necessity occurs when she is in trouble and needs to save herself. But, deep down in her heart, she doesn’t care much about men. She has a big ego that yearns to reach the top and she won’t need a man for that unless he can help her climb up the ladder of society.

Biography :

Mr. Moor was a nameless merchant who pulled himself up in business to the point that succeeded to do deals with the court. Using this chance, he expanded his influence over producers and markets and added his power and wealth. As his second daughter, he has three daughters and a son, Anna learned from him secrets of success in bribery, levy and back stabbing. Although she had a normal childhood, his father had made all his children to learn whatever children of noble families had to know so she was ready to work in the court when their family found the right connections.

She started her progress as maid of a duchess, then a lady, then a more powerful lady and finally made her way into the court and royal family which led to being chosen as queen’s lady in waiting for her perfect behavior.

Name:
Princess Azalea of Leston

Nickname:
Her Highness, Your Highness, Az, Lea

Age:
18

Role:
Eldest Princess of Leston

Title:
Her Royal Highness, Princess Azalea of Leston

Gender:
Female

Sexuality:
Heterosexual

Appearance Description (one paragraph, at least):
Azalea stands to an average 5’7”. She has slightly tan skin, and a lithe, slender frame with curves in all the right places with a tiny waist with a silky graceful walk to match it. She’s got long, dark brunette waves that gently cascade down her back and almost to her waist. Azalea has piercing blue eyes with scattered dark green flecks in them, contrasting deeply with her dark hair. She has a soft face that also managed to be beautifully intimidating at the same time.

Clothing Description
Azalea perfers clothes that allow more freedom of movement. Much to her dislike, she’s been wearing corsets since she came of age at 16. Azalea wears dresses that are beautiful but simple, dresses that are either silk and do not require massive skirts, or dresses that aren’t as poofy or as flamboyant as most should wear. She generally wears her wavy hair down, but keeps it up in formal attire. Azalea often liked to sneak into some leather trousers and boots with a tunic every now and then, though never in the palace or in front of many eyes.

Personality:
Azalea is a spirited young woman not suited for a girl with her title. Since she was a little girl Azalea developed a wry, independent personality. Many have nickednamed her “the Unobtainable” and for good reason. Azalea is a very blunt, wry and mischevious individual. She loves the adventure and thrill of exploring, fighting, and getting into trouble. When first meeting her, you’d either hate her or love her, depending one what she’s heard of you. And somehow she always have her ways of finding out about people. She isn’t afraid to speak her mind, which has been known to land her quite a few enemies. But she’s also very clever, enough to know how to play the game of secrets that is so evident in the palace. She’ll sacrifice anything for her family, and being fearless, she isn’t afraid to do such a thing either. You’ll never see her cry, for her pride is much too strong for that, instead you’ll see her angry. Overall, Azalea is a very caring person whom looks after her family and would do anything to protect them.

Biography:
Azalea was born unnaturally intelligent, even when she was two, she can still remember despising her father. Though she was still so young, she remembers his affairs somehow. Azalea was never quite close with her mother either, though she is very close with her siblings, she could never really respect her mother. Azalea did not want to act like a proper lady, she did want to be adorned in fancy dresses or be prepared for marriage as if it was her life’s goal. Azalea wanted to love her life to the fullest, and still does.

So it didn’t take long for her rebellious stage to kick in. She’d hang out with the servant girls, or flirt with servant boys in front of her mother just to kiss her off, and this was only at twelve years old. She started to practice archery at fourteen years old, and train with a dagger considering she was too small to wield a sword. She’d watch guards train during the day, and practice their techniques alone when nobody was watching. She also began to settle down slightly as well, Azalea grew a love for dancing. It became her second favorite hobby, and she became masterful at it. She also began to understand how court really looked, and the lies behind it. Indeed, Azalea has her own secrets she must keep.

Dagger, and a beautifully crafted silver bow with matching arrows and quiver with vine like designs running all through the bow and quiver.

Name:
Prince Theodore of Leston

Nickname:
Theo

Age:
20

Role:
Eldest Prince and Heir to the Throne

Title:
His Royal Highness, Prince Theodore of Leston

Gender:
Male

Sexuality:
Heterosexual

a06ac67dfa979c950bea53ffc24168f9.gif

Appearance Description:
The first thing people tend to notice about Theo is his height. He stands at 6'4" and is very well-toned, taking great pride in the body he works hard for. He likes to keep a short beard but is known to completely shave it from time to time. He keeps his medium brown, curly hair relatively short though at times is tempted to just let it grow. Theo likes to get his hands dirty, enjoying training and hunting, which has led him to acquire a couple of scars across his chest. He can often be seen adopting a stern expression throughout the palace, but he knows exactly how to turn on the charm and display the friendliest of smiles, when needed.

Clothing Description:
When around the palace or during formal occasions, Theo will dress in smart, traditional attire for a prince. However, if he's hunting, he will wear more casual clothing, often leather. When fighting, he will put on his armour, which he would not hesitate to wear during battle. When none of these occasions apply Theo will happily walk around the palace with his shirt unbuttoned, enjoying the lack of restricting clothing.

gcfh.jpg

Personality:
A man of many faces.

Theo is typically warm and friendly towards his family, especially his youngest sister who he sees as quite precious and innocent. He is very protective over both sisters and has been known to threaten any man he believes to be looking at them inappropriately. This also has the drawback that Theo is quite the hypocrite as he loves nothing more than to gaze upon a beauty and engage in flirtations, but he's the Prince of Leston so he can do whatever he pleases. Like his mother, Theo can also be quite controlling and demanding of respect from all. He is known for his sharp tongue and cutting remarks.

Theo is a very charming and intelligent young man, who is able to switch on the charisma when dealing with politics and matters of the kingdom. He is a brave man, but beneath the surface he is driven by great aggression and a love for violence. He enjoys a good fight or a day of hunting to release his built-up aggression. He doesn't like the idea of war, but he would never shy away from it.

Despite disliking the way he is father had mistresses, Theo has inherited the man's wandering eye and lustful desires, as much as he hates to admit it.

Biography:
From an early age, Theo was primed for leadership. From the moment he could walk, he began training to fight. From the moment he could read, he began learning politics and foreign languages. Much of his childhood was taken up with studying and sparring. It started as a chore, but over the years Theo has grown to enjoy learning and fighting. He remembers when his father died, having spent so much time watching the man as a young child. As he grew old enough to understand the concept, he learned of his father's mistresses, which saddened him on his mother's behalf. Regardless, Theo grew to look up to his mother for ruling the kingdom as a queen without a king. He adopted some of her more traditional principles and has always tried to enforce the upon his sisters, hoping to shield him from men like their father... and himself.

Theo loves to go out hunting, regardless of having servants for that. He tries not to think about it, but he knows he has a killer instinct and an aggression that he struggles to keep inside. He has been known to flirt with noblewomen and that's where his problems, and secrets, are born. He knows he will have to take a wife soon and fears he won't be able to stop himself from following his father by taking on his own mistresses.

Name:
Prince Alexandre of Leston
Nickname:
Alex, Alexy, Sir, Boy, Major
Age:
18
Role:
Youngest Prince and Military Officer(Major)
Title (if applicable):
His Highness(Dislikes that Title), Captain Alexandre,
Prince Alexandre of Leston
Gender:
Male
Sexuality:
Heterosexual
Appearance Description (one paragraph, at least):
64f8e582402b5d2518c896477d9afd45--sweden-history-thirty-years-war.jpg
Like his brother and his father before, Alexandre is rather a handsome man, though some would like to add dashing as well. Not as tall as his brother, but standing at the same height as his twin sister at 5'7". But unlike his twin sister, Alexandre is rather sturdily built, with rather well toned muscles after years of training in the army. Alexandre's hair matches the color of his twin sister, with a finely groomed mustache and goatee to boot. He also prefers having his hair grow out a bit, but also curly. Alexandre shares many of the same facial feature as his twin sister, though his is less intimidating at times and more friendly, though never underestimate him.
Clothing Description (one paragraph, at least):
93043207771bc40d33c42276c88eb51c.gif

Alexandre always has the look of a musketeer, as seen as the picture above. He generally has the same look, a cavalier hat on top with a plume or feather attached, some sort of cape draped over his left shoulder, shirt or coat on his upper body with various leather buckles with pistols strapped to them, a rapier to his side, a belt buckle on his hip, trousers, gloves, and leather boots. Depending on the occasion, his colors will change, but he will keep that roguish musketeer look.
Personality (two paragraphs, at least):
Dashing and rogue like has been what most people describe of him, witty and sarcastic is also another description for him, flirtatious is yet another way of describing him. But for the most part Alexandre remains a wholesome young man, always a smile on his face, polite to women and rowdy with the men. Though, same cannot be said about his twin sister, whom he hadn't seen in years, but he used to confined all his little secrets to. Among the nobility of the court he tries his best to act regal, summoning that military discipline he has been trained in, yet it would not surprise anyone he knew if they saw him yawning in court. For the most part Alexandre finds court life really dull and boring, rather be out and about, whether exploring the city, riding about the country, or drinking with the lads.
In fact, it is a differnt story whenever Alexandre is with the soldiers of the Leston army or with anyone of his friends. When with his men, Alexandre can command an air of command, not from respect, but from camaraderie. They have fought many of battles together and drunken in just as many taverns. It is an awe to see them in-battle, as their brotherhood is as strong as steel, their will of iron, and their hearts ready to fight for their family and for their country. It is through these various battles have Alexandre learned to appreciate the men he calls his brother-in-arms, as well as the common folk who would eagerly jump to the defense of their crown and country. Brotherhood is somthing that Alexandre has valued, betray is perhaps one of the worst things a man(or women...) could ever do...it is somthing that does more then just anger Alexandre...
Biography (two paragraphs, at least):
Alexandre was born the lesser and younger of a pair of twins, the only reason he is the lesser of two twins was because of how much more of a ruckus his sister made compare to him. Alexandre was much more soft-spoken and timed as a child, always in the shadows of his twin sister and his elder brother. Though Alexadre would always follow his sister around like a puppy, always felt comfortable confiding with his sister about many things in his life.
Things changed at the age of 8, when he was sent to a military academy by his mother. Alexandre was planned to the military arm of the family while his elder brother ruled, thus he entered the service at such a young age along with sons of other nobility. The military academy life transformed him, and the others for that matter. Through the grueling hardships of military life, Alexandre formed a brotherhood with those alongside him, a brotherhood. They graduated officers, and Alexandre was to shadow a loyal Duke of Leston protecting the borders of the kingdom. The Duke was an innovative man, always impriving on tactics and strategies, outfitting the armies with the latest of technology; said Duke was the man who helped really introduced Alexndre to gunpowder. Alexandre saw many battles during his time in service, and more then once did he had to hold against many odds. But he never did it alone, always standing shoulder to shoulder with those who came from all walks of life but one goal in mind: To defend their kingdom.
Years went by like this, with Alexandre seeing many skirmishes and battles, living far away from the place he once called home. For the most part, Alexandre was content. It was not perfect, but he had been on many adventures and formed many friendships. Though, it was not all rainbows and sunshine, the horrors of war would always haunt Alexandre wherever he goes, perhaps that is why he fights so hard, to ensure it never reaches the ones he loved. There was somthing else that happened during his time away, but he never seems to want to talk about, though at times he may be spied upon looking at a locket with someone in it...
But after years away from the capital, Alexandre has finally made his return, looking to establish reforms among the army royal army.

He is brave and perceptive. He is careful when carrying out clandestine operations.


He can change his face when in front of other people, like the queen. He despises the Queen, she is dragging the kingdom back. She does not accept change and is blocking the way to advancement. He pretends to be someone very loyal, so true that it is virtually impossible to tell his false face. He can lie easily and can quickly detect spoken lies, but it's hard to do the same to him. Everything he speak is the truth, or atleast he makes it seem like the truth. He acts like a great subordinate to the queen. When ordered to do something, he will carry it out, but if it is against what he stood out for then he will not do it and blame the failure to another corrupt noble.

Gabriel heavily dislikes people who try to marry their daughters off to him because he is fully aware that they are after political marriage and his power, he would often immediately shut them down. He likes to find a woman for himself, who has the same ideals as him. He just usually sits and watch as his plans unfold, but there are rare times when he himself goes to the field and do the job himself.


Biography
Loyalty. The House of Silvyre was built from this. Not to the crown, but to the Nation. The House acts for the Nation, to its benefit. The Lords of House Silvyre has been doing this for ages. Skilled Manipulators. Some people call them the Puppeteers. The House has taken down Corrupt Monarchs and replaced them with new and better ones in the past. Not only the Monarchs, but nobles, administrators, those who possess power. They operate in the darkness, the shadows. House Silvyre is one of the oldest House in the Nation.
"This is our sole duty. This is the foundation of House Silvyre. Abandon it and we will be like stray people with no clear objectives."


Gabriel was born from Lord Edward and Lady Elizabeth. All day and night he was taught, but not like the normal child of normal nobles. Of course he was taught about politics, diplomacy, swordsmanship, but he was mostly taught on Manipulation and Deceit. How to be perceptive. His loyalty to the Nation was also built. He attended the greatest academy of the Nation and came out on top of his class. He used his brains and nobody would dare go against him in his time at the academy. Even the educators were at his hands.
"It is natural for the week to be exploited. They have no power to resist, just like puppets.."

While at their Vacation villa with his parents, they were attacked. Someone orchestrated an attack against them and they were unaware. They were caught in surprise and mercenaries rushed into their villa. By the time reinforcements arrived, they found Lord Edward and Lady Elizabeth dead. The attackers were also lying on the floor, lifeless. There were needles sticking out from their vital spots, mostly in the neck. At the living room, sitting at the Seat for the House Head was Gabriel. Clothes and hands bloodied. He was cleaning his bloodied long sword.
"You are late. My parents are already dead. It seemed like a pawn has taken out a player, but do not worry. I will be the new player and I will crush those who dared raise a hand against their superior."

A week later, news spread out that all members of House Clandor was assassinated and their house burnt. The remaining possessions were seized by House Silvyre. It was a show of power. It was a reminder that House Silvyre should not be messed with and that they still have immense power. He was appointed as the Council Head of the Queen's court to replace his father. The new and young duke received mixed reactions, but he ruled just like his father and easily had other nobles kneel in front of him.
"Your Lord Edward never died. He is still here, speaking to you. I am him and you will treat me like him."

Weapons:
Gabriel is in possession of a Long sword, a rapier, and two daggers. All of which are made by the best material for a weapon and by the greatest blacksmith of the continent. He also has a wheellock pistol, but barely uses it. He carries multiple needles to secretly kill enemies.
“I tend to avoid killing unless it is extremely necessary. Death only brings in external investigation and is quite a hassle. More hindrances and it can quite raise up the alertness.”

Name
Lord Eamon of Dantes

Nickname
Eames, Blondie (he hates both)

Age
20

Role
Lord

Title
Manservant to the Oldest Prince

Gender
Male

Sexuality
Homosexual

26770827759_d3034b5cfe_z.jpg


Appearance Description
Eamon has fair skin, blonde hair, and blue eyes. He wears his hair long, past his ears at the longest part. The ends are quite curly, though gravity weighs the rest of it down into soft waves. The nature of the cut means that it could easily fall into his eyes if he moved quickly - but he tries to avoid strenuous activity of any kind. He has soft features, especially his mouth, and often adopts a wistful expression. He has good skin which he takes care of; he’s incapable of growing a full beard, so he focuses on skincare instead. His build is slight, despite his relative height and broader shoulders. At 5’11”, he’s dwarfed by Prince Theodore, but he figures that that’s as it should be anyway.

Clothing Description
Eamon’s wardrobe is something he takes great pride in, and he selects his outfits very carefully. He looks best in gold and light spring colors, so many of the jackets he favors are embroidered in gold. He follows the latest fashions and is often among the first to adopt them (purse permitting). At the moment he prefers the standard doublet and hose, with the ruffled neck of the doublet just a hint too ostentatious.

Personality
Gregarious, charming, and unbelievably vain, Eamon assumes that the people who aren’t talking about him simply haven’t met him. He adores court and all the scandals that go along with it, and follows all of the current gossip - usually hoping that someone will be embarrassed. His ambitions color nearly everything he does; it’s safe to assume that he’s usually working some angle. He’s a talented storyteller and is very good with names.

Eamon has a flair for the dramatic a mile wide, with minor slights turned into world-ending events and minor triumphs becoming incredible victories. He can be exhausting to be around. That said, he grew up in multiple courts and is intimately familiar with etiquette. He instantly picks up on social cues, and knows when to keep his dramatics to himself. For this reason, his internal monologue can often sound very different from his speech. He tends to be a more reserved version of himself around Prince Theodore; he suspects that the Prince, paragon of manly virtues that he is, wouldn’t get along with the unedited version of himself.

Biography
Eamon is the youngest of many siblings, which is a role that he’s always loathed. He loved being the center of attention, but resented his older brothers, who had opportunities - diplomatic positions, strategic marriages, knighthoods, priesthoods - thrown at them. By the time Eamon was a teenager, his older siblings had gotten the important roles, and he was an afterthought.

The nature of these “important” roles is relative - Eamon comes from a minor noble house, so success is measured on a much smaller scale than in Queen Almina’s court. His father is a Viscount, so even if all of Eamon’s older brothers perished in a timely fire, he could only inherit a small holding. This lack of upward mobility has always been a weight on Eamon’s shoulders, who wanted the finer things in life from a very young age.

After years of whining and begging, his grandmother - a fierce lady with arguably more power than her son, the Viscount - secured him the position of a manservant for the oldest prince. Eamon has been dreaming of going to court for his whole life, though manservant is hardly the title he hoped for. Regardless, he is determined to make a name for himself and for his family, and to prove all of his siblings wrong. He’ll show them what he’s capable of.

Eamon hasn’t been in court very long, just shy of six months. That’s plenty of time for Eamon to have learned his way around the palace, but he has a long way to go yet if he’s to achieve his goals. His role as manservant is not what he’d expected - it’s far too much work - and it consumes much of his time. He’s grateful for the proximity to Prince Theodore, but aiding or cleaning up after Theodore’s manly pursuits (hunting and women, ugh) has gotten very old.

The secret that’s the closest to Eamon’s heart is his sexuality. It’s hard to convince a young noblewoman to marry you when she knows you’re not actually interested. He’s also not sure if it will adversely affect his reputation. That said, he has his share of court secrets, carefully picked up and cultivated over these six months.

Weapons
Rapier - Eamon carries a rapier almost entirely for the show of it. He assumes it makes him look manly, which he also assumes is a virtue Theodore respects. There’s also the chance that he’ll run into trouble on one of the Prince’s hunts. He received cursory training in swordplay as a child, but he’s never been a great talent.

Strengths
Dancing
Storytelling
Etiquette
Scheming

Weaknesses
Hunting
Physical exertion
Feigning interest

Likes
Parties
Gossip
Fashion
Daydreaming
Fine wine

Dislikes

My History
Legends-of-Sword-King-Arthur-Jacket.jpg
Backstory:

Daeron was born to the ruling Chief of the northern tribes. As a second son, he was afforded a lot more leway regarding what he did with his time and life. His great grandfather 5 generations back had united the tribes to help the then king drive out the eastern invaders. Since then the northerners were told to be savage warriors.

Much to everybodys shock, Daerons father married a Southern woman. She adapted well and birthed 2 sons and a daughter. Daeron and his siblings spent as much time in the sparring ring as they did in the classroom. Under their mothers guidance they honed a keen mind as well as a deadly sword arm.

While his brother bested him at every turn, Daeron was still a warrior of renown, earning the title of White Wolf, and his Group of clansmen, his pack. Daeron made sure they were well trained to fight,but not like simple minded fools. He made sure to train them to be smart and fight tactically. The Pack are identifiable by the simple cloak clasp made of silver bearing Daerons personal sigil of a White Wolf.

Daeron grew up with a lot of freedom which only became more so when his older brother wedded and bedded his wife securing the family line. Daeron was informed that after his sisters wedding he would travel south, an invitation from the queen herself. Which Daeron guessed was more of a power play to keep the northerners on side.

Thus Daeron was off to the South...

Lady Elizabeth of Leston
medieval_princess_ii_by_mawiiecooper-d4varmq.jpg


Name: Lady Elizabeth of Leston

Nickname: Her Highness, Your Highness, My Lady, Her Lady, Lilabeth, The Bastard Daughter of Leston (To those feel a strong disdain toward the princess), Elizabeth the Court Master (Known to be used by foreign officials)

Age: 15

Role: Lady of Leston, Bastard Daughter of The Queen

Title: Her Highness, Lady Elizabeth of Leston

Gender: Female

Sexuality: Bisexual

Appearance Description: Elizabeth is a very pale individual with piercing blue eyes and dark red hair. Elizabeth has a slim waistline and a remarkable posture to support herself. The young lady is nearing her mother's height and with several years left to grow it is expected she may overtake the queen in terms of hight but only by some few inches. Elizabeth's most notable physical trait is that of her red hair, a bold colour that stands apart from all her siblings and serves as a reminder of her father to the queen. Be that good or bad is a topic for serious debate.

Clothing Description: Elizabeth typically adorns dresses with dark distinguishing colours of which black and red is her favourite. Sharing the same opinion her mother does when it comes to women's fashion Elizabeth is hard if ever seen outside of a dress. Elizabeth's dresses are typically bland in terms of design yet for occasions of importance she can be seen sporting a floral design in black. Elizabeth is also quite fond of hoods and hooded capes, she typically has such an item draped over her dress when appropriate.

Personality: Elizabeth is a fierce, well-balanced woman who enjoys debating and arguing with a worthy opponent. At her core, she believes in justice and is easy to get along with. She is an agreeable youth acting out the role of one gentle in disposition yet strong in mind and resolves. Elizabeth has a playful attitude and takes a very carefree approach to life, but is quick to work herself into a frenzy during a heated debate or argument. She is known as a brave, compassionate, and likeable young woman to the masses. She has always respected faith and had has had the nobility to never once break a promise made. Which still stands to this day.

Elizabeth enjoys reading, debating, attending the court, public appearances/speeches and hitting on cute guys. Elizabeth is very much a proud woman, someone who can't abandon a fight just because she's losing. She's ready to fight until the end, for the sake of her people.
She's very keen on her goal and professional in her work. She's noble and she can't really stand people who toy with her or who have betrayed her trust. She's also easily touched by others problems and if she chooses to protect someone, she will do her best until the very end. She really enjoys dating or simply spending her time in relaxing hobbies like debate or reading.

Much like her mother Elizabeth easily loses her cool, especially to insults calling her a dog or bastard.

Biography: Elizabeth was born a bastard child, with no father to call her own and no knowledge of his well being. Undoubtedly an accidental child Elizabeth was looked down upon by officials for the majority of her life. Being cast aside to make way for her siblings and their studies as opposed to wasting time on her own.

With this kind of bias against Elizabeth from the higher-ups, she was forced to fight for herself from a very young age. Self-taught in five of the seven major languages and more knowledgeable in the laws of both her own kingdom and its allies than any one of her siblings or mother, Elizabeth is a prime example that success can be gained from one's own hard labour.

Around the age of eleven, Elizabeth was catapulted into the public spotlight when she stood to defend a farmer in the courts. Said farmer was being brought up on charges of treason as a result of potato blight found in a number of deliveries made by him and his farmhand to the reigning lord. Elizabeth fought tooth and nail with the court, debating several points and challenging the lord directly with charges of misconduct and theft. In the end, Elizabeth emerged victoriously and since then has gone on to voice her opinion on several matters both outside and within the court. In cases of severe legal and diplomatic importance, Elizabeth is called upon for council by many court officials including her brother and mother. In fact, Elizabeth has personally written up several legal documents on behalf of the queen for matters such as international trade deals and treaties.

Elizabeth appears often to the public and gives speeches that not only resonate with the people of the kingdom but fill them with hope and faith in the nobility. Elizabeth has undoubtedly become a very powerful member of the Royal Family and comes in handy more than often to those in power. Her ability to sway the masses and her mastery of law is perhaps the only reason she hasn't been married off yet and cast away by her mother.

Weapons: Elizabeth never carries a weapon, she has guards for that.

Name: Josephine Hapsby

Nickname: None

Age: 19

Role: Ladies Maid to the oldest princess

Title (if applicable): None

Gender: Female

Sexuality: Heterosexual

Appearance Description (one paragraph, at least): Josephine is a pretty young woman. She has a soft, sweet face, with a matching smile. She has pale blue eyes surrounded by full dark lashes. Her skin is pale and soft. She is short, standing barely over five feet tall. She is slim, which is helped by the use of a corset. She is not one who enjoys attention, she she often tries to make herself appear smaller than she actually is, despite being quite small already. She has light brown hair that she often keeps pinned up in a simple bun. However, there always seem to be a few wisps of hair that refuse to stay up.

Clothing Description (one paragraph, at least): Josephine likes to dress simply. Being a very quiet girl, she likes to stay hidden in the background, so she likes to wear things that would go unnoticed. She likes dressing in earthtones. She wears lot of greens and reds and browns. She loves to sew and she makes many of her clothes herself. She likes looking neat and presentable, but not flashy or in a way that would make her stand out.

Personality (two paragraphs, at least): Josephine is a rather quiet girl. She can't exactly be described as shy, but she does prefer to keep to herself. She will make polite conversations, but she will not enjoy it. In fact, the only time she will make conversation and enjoy it is when discussing topics that she finds enjoyable. She can talk about art, music, sewing and theater for hours. But, when it comes to anything else, she has a hard time holding a conversation. She is better described as an introvert. She has no problem speaking if the topic is of interest to her.
Josephine is an intelligent and artistic young woman. When it comes to history and arts she likes to learn all she can. She is quick-witted and an excellent debater. She is reserved, and prefers it being quiet, rather than loud, and she dislikes balls and parties, preferring to read alone in her room. She has a passion for the arts and enjoys sewing and creating her own clothes. She sees clothes as an art form and likes to be creative. However, when making her own clothes, she doesn't get to be as creative as she'd like, as she herself likes to remain subtle.

Biography (two paragraphs, at least): Josephine is the youngest daughter of an impoverished baronet. She has three elder sister. Her father never gave up his lavish lifestyle. Her father married off his three eldest daughters, and spent most of their husband's money, and they have stopped lending him money. By the time Josephine was old enough to marry, word had spread about her father, and no one wanted to marry her. Her father was desperate to find a way to get money. Josephine was always her father's favorite child, and the two shared a special bond. She accepted a position in Court as a lady in waiting for the eldest princess, sending most of her wages to her father.
Josephine has been in the service of the elder princess, Azalea for about a year and a half. She has been dutiful in her position, and is still trying to gain her footing at court. The court intrigues her, and she is suspicious of it. She sends the majority of her wages to her father, and she knows that it is going towards his gambling and drinking habits. She wishes it weren't so, but her father is her weak spot, and she longs to please him and would hate to disappoint him. She dreams of one day marrying, but she knows that it would be hard given her family's reputation.

BASICS
Name: Cecily Amphillis Asplyn
Nickname: Cece
Age: 19
Role: Lady-in-Waiting to the Youngest Princess
Title (if applicable): Lady Ceculy Amphillis Asplyn
Gender: Female
Sexuality: Heterosexual

Appearance Description (one paragraph, at least):With fair, porcelain-skin, Cecily has soft and feminine features. She is seen without any blemishes, unless there's a cold winter's day and only a faint tint of red blush can be seen on her cheeks. Her crystal, bright blue-green eyes strikes a chord in most people, almost as if one were to look in her eyes, they would be drawn to her. The eyes are the window to the soul, afterall.

Her long, wavy mocha brown hair cascades down to her mid-back. she's usually seen with a uniform bun. Cecily is considered short in stature as she only stands at four feet and eleven inches, almost making it to exactly five feet. Although Cecily is still growing, she is still considered tiny as she's able to fit into small spaces. Quite thin and slender, having a little meat on her to not make her look sickly, but still thin that it can be worrying at times.

Cecily has a soft and quiet voice, never one to raise her voice at others. However, she loves to laugh and has about four different laughs depending which one are able to get out of her. Cecily gives small and genuine smiles, but nevetheless, when she's happy her eyes lit up vibrantly. She is quite expressive as she tends to also wear her heart on her sleeves


Clothing Description (one paragraph, at least):Cecily keeps it more on the conservative side when it comes to how she dresses. While some of this is due to the queens taste another reason is her personal preference. Drawn to baby blues and pastel green or yellows, Cecily tends to stray away from harsher colors. Her outfits often are accompanied by a shaw of some sort. When she is feeling fancy, Cecily will sometime place fresh flowers in her bun. In each dress she wears she sews a pocket into the dress where she keeps a beaded rosary safely stowed away. A small keepsake from her past.

IN DEPTH
Personality (two paragraphs, at least): Cecily is quirky. She is an enigma. She is a true humanitarian who is ready and willing to assist someone who might be short on cash or down on their luck. She'll also dole out sound advice. She cares about her fellow man, woman, child, animal, and environmental cause. Some see Cecily as naive, not being able to handle much on her own.
Cecily tends to mingle with people from all walks of life. She tends to greet and interact with people the same way, no matter what their age or background. While she loves to progress, on a personal level, she doesn’t like change. It has to do with her loyalty, her attachment to the past, and her memories, so even though she has the courage to look ahead, usually with optimism, and see the best things in store, she still likes to know where she has come from and who she is.
On the shy-er side of the spectrum Cecily rarely talks to anyone but the youngest princess. While most may very well keep their promises in their relationships, Cecily can take loyalty to a different, deeper level. She will stay loyal to anyone even if time and time again it is shown one should not have her trust. Plus she's a bit of a hopeless romantic.

Biography (two paragraphs, at least): Life before becoming a Lady-in-Waiting was quite for Cecily. Living off in the country side with her parents and siblings. She was the middle child of three, which often meant she was most of the time forgotten. Which can be linked to Cecily's shy nature, as she did not get as much social experience as her other siblings. Being the only girl in Asplyn siblings she was more of a burden if anything, her parents rushing to marry her off as soon as she came of age. Hoping to relieve themselves of her and have someone else take care of her.

Little did her family know she had her own ideas. It all started with a boy named Erik, a farm hand that worked on her fathers fields. Cecily fell head over heels after the few conversations they had, and apparently Erik had felt the same. After dark Cecily would escape her room and meet Erik behind an old oak that had sprouted just behind her families home. Like most of these stories go their love did not last for long. Saying her parents were livid would be an understatement after removing Erik from their land they sent Cecily away to be a Lady-in Waiting to the queens youngest daughter.

A year or so after her being there she recieved word that Erik had passed due to a work incident. Although Cecily did not have time to greive, already shaming her family enough to have her removed from her families home. She does not mind being a Lady-in-Waiting, in fact its one of the few things she enjoys doing. Having mindless tasks helps distract her from her thoughts. No one knows of her reasons for being at the castle, many believing it was due to her parents just wishing to get her off their hands.

EXTRA
Weapons: None, give her one and she may poke her own eye out.

Strengths: Understanding, Kind, Perceptive

Weaknesses: Second Guesses, Painfully Shy, Cowardice

Likes: Baby Breath Flowers, Cursive, Old Books

Dislikes: Arguements, Loud Rooms, Her Family

Name Alistair Therin

"Rule number one:"

Title(s): Sir Therin, Commander of the Royal Guard
Age: 23
Gender: Male
Sexuality: Heterosexual
Role: Head of the Royal Guard

"Do not show Weakness."

Appearance Description: Taller than average, Alistair stands at an impressive height of 6'3". He has a very athletic build from years of training, but his slightly lanky frame often make people underestimate him. He likes to keep his black hair short and has been known to shave it on occasion. His bread never grows longer than an array of dark stubble. He has a series of scars on his chest and back from all sorts of past injuries, including a thin scar that cuts from the left end of his nose to the bottom of his left lip.

Clothing Description: As a man with professional standards, Alistair is rarely seen out of the armor marking him as the Captain of the Royal Guard; which is radically different than the red and gold trimmed armor his men wear. Alistair's armor is purely silver with the black flowing cape hanging off his right shoulder which is trimmed in the same gold and red that signify the royal guard. On special occasions he will be seen in a variation of a dark leather tunic matching leather pants. However, when alone in his quarters or office he is perfectly comfortable in a loose shirt and leather pants.

Weapons: Schiavona, a dagger, and twin wheellock pistols

"As far as anyone knows,"

Personality: Having a tendency to be too enthralled with his work rather than seek outside socialization, Alistair is seen as cold and remote to those around him. Though his quick wit and sarcasm can be just as easily off-putting. His 'head first' attitude gets him in more trouble often than not, but his loyalty to his men and the crown tend to keep most of his decisions in constant check.

Behind the serious mask he often puts up is something far more darker, broken, alluding to some aspect of the past that still haunts him.


Bio: Alistair is a bastard, born to a noble and a peasant, he never had the grand upbringing that most knights did. He was fortunate enough to escape the life of a farm boy at the ripe age of eight when a Knight took interest in him. Alistair squired for the foreign Knight and traveled with the man for years, learning all the while. After a stunning act of bravery, Alistair was Knighted himself at seventeen and became one of the youngest Knights in history.

As the years flew by, his skills and tactical mind proved more useful to the duties associated with the Royal Guard. He climbed the latter with surprising ease and became the Commander of the Royal Guard at twenty-two. An ambitious feat that has only been accomplished by the man he succeeded.
