History:
•wip
Personality:
Even though he’s been through some things he is still kind hearted and warm. Leonid no longer fears death but embraces it like an old friend so sometimes he’s a bit more adventurous then he should be. It’s hard to get on his bad side as he believes everyone has a good side to them or qualities that don’t make them as bad as they might seem. The one thing about him though is once you are close with him he’s super protective. He would never wanna see a friend hurt again so he will do everything in his power to prevent them getting hurt. If you really get on his bad side he can be cold as ice though it would take a lot to get on that side of him.


Despite being warm and friendly he can be rather shy when he first meets someone. It’s not a crippling shyness but it can be a hindrance at times when meeting multiple people at once. Unfortunately he can also be suspicious of new people after the accident it’s left him wary of people who might be out to harm others. Now he doesn’t hate strangers not in the slightest bit . He’s just learned how dangerous they can be so that makes him wary of them or at least have a healthy suspicion. Leonid is working hard towards a goal of curing illnesses or something that can help them maintain a more healthy environment for all not matter what class they are.



Leonid is a tidy person in appearance and room wise as he needs his space to be perfect so accidents don’t happen. He likes keeping everything in place or a certain location. It makes things easier for him when he knows where everything is exactly located. So he doesn’t really like it when people go through his things or touch them without asking. It tends to put him off since he works hard to make things neat and tidy. However he’s also been known to make a bit of a mess when working on a patients or working on the cures he hopes to achieve. So overall he can be a bit complex and hard to read at times.

History:
Leonid basically grew up within and around the castle with his father being the court physician before him. He almost always was at his fathers side learning about plants, medicines, how to heal. As he grew older the more he went from watching to helping his father when he went out to help not only the royal court but those in the village. This is when Leo dealt with a terrible loss a childhood friend of his had become ill. So Leo took it upon himself to try and heal him since his fathers duty was with the Royal family. Leo sat with his friend for days trying everything he could think of however in the end his friend passed away. With his dying breath his friend didn’t blame him and told him to continue as a doctor. So now Leonid works hard to come up with cures that way no one he cares about will ever suffer like his friend did.

She’s a bit mischievous and loves scaring people during shows the more the crowd screams or cheers the better she feels!

However this doesn’t mean she will run herself ragged just to help someone who’s taking advantage of her kindness.

History:

Name:
Vaughn Augustus
Title/Job:
Youngest Prince
Gender:
•Male
Age:
•21 years old
Sexual/Romantic Orientation:
•Bisexual/Biromantic

Personality:
•As one of the youngest royal siblings he easily feels passed over for most things. At times it’s bothers him I mean isn’t that how usual dynamics work even in a regular siblings filled family. However other times he knows his responsibilities aren’t as intense as his older siblings. So he’s often sneaking away to go into the town wanting to explore and have fun all his own. He can be a bit of a flirt with everyone however he does prefer to have more serious relationships. Any female who’s shown either of his brothers affection he avoids as he wants something for himself and himself only. He acts rather playful and a bit like a ditz most the time around his family or other nobility not really caring how they see him. Though I’m reality he is rather serious and wants to prove his worth that he’s just as good as the older siblings who have everyone’s respect.
History:
•Vaughn was the last child born to the king and queen of Alor. After he was born their mother was gone(deceased) leaving four other children and a newborn alone. While growing up Vaughn often felt it was because of him that their mother passed away and that he had taken her from his siblings. He has a darkness within him spreading like roots as the dark thoughts creep in. The older he’s gotten the more he’s kept it hidden from others. Other then his siblings helping to raise him and make sure he had plenty of attention he’s had a pretty normal life. As the baby he’s probably gotten away with a lot more then most of his siblings. He also knows that he’s the lowest of the siblings status wise so he’s not as needed during important meetings.

Faceclaim:
•Neels Visser

Name:
•Celine
Title/Job:
•Lady in waiting
Gender:
•Female
Age:
•22
Sexual/Romantic Orientation:
•Pansexual

Personality:
•Celine is a very soft spoken person. She tries her best to make sure the royals she serves are happy and have all their needs met. When she was very young she was actually sold to another family where they gave her a small education enough of one to be good enough to be hired by the king. She has a very sweet and gentle nature also is always grateful for all she receives. A bit of a shy bean that’s always afraid she’s in the way of a bother most the time. She’s working very hard to overcome it since the Royal family has always been nothing but kind to her. Also with the help of the other staff she’s become friends with she’s beginning to blossom out even more now that she’s older.
History:
•She was adopted/sold into a wealthy family(who couldn’t have kids of their own). So she pretty much thinks of herself as a servant instead of a true lady in waiting. Even though the royal family and her own have assured her she’s not a regular servant. She spent her days learning all kinds of things thanks to her new parents she was also lavished with gifts and affection. Celine always felt very welcomed and soon began enjoying her life soon forgetting the people who sold her in the first place. Once her education was high enough she was sent to the Alor castle where she was to be a lady in waiting for one of the princesses.

Name:
•Maverick Grave
Title/Job:
•Head Chef
Gender:
•Male
Age:
•26
Sexual/Romantic Orientation:
•Heterosexual(bisexual would probably prefer women due to being in the closet)

Personality:
•A very laid back kind of guy when it comes to others. He enjoys his job and that one of the only things that can make him angry. He really doesn’t enjoy his work being messed with or others being rude about food. Mav is a rather pleasant man who enjoys taking sweets and other foods to kids in town while also sneaking stuff to other staff members. He’s honest about most things in life other then his romantic views his father is not the type of man who would allow him to be with another man. So he’s pretty much been in the closet since childhood however he does also enjoy women so he hopes to at least have some love in his life. He also comes off as sad at times often when he’s deep in thought.

psyche









As the youngest, Esme has always been rather spoiled to make up for the fact that one, she's a girl and two, she would never take the throne. Not that it ever bothered her much, Esme, in her own opinion, isn't responsible enough to run a country. She knows she'll do better at being married off to keep relations good with somewhere else. What she really wants though is to fall in love like in all of the poetry and storybooks she's read as a child. She always has her head up in the clouds according to her ladies in waiting, but she's just a sweet girl who wants to see more than the palace walls that bound her. While she's timid about leaving, she wishes she had the guts to do so. She's desperate for companionship and adventure and feels lonely a lot of the time even with her ladies surrounding her.






likes

reading and writing poetry, story books, sketching, balls, new dresses, gardening






dislikes

bugs, schedules, corsets, violins, overly macho men






fears

losing everyone she loves, curses, bugs, the lower levels of the palace


















03.



history









Esme was born on a snowy winter day in December and has grown up loving the snow, partially due to its beauty, but mainly because it means it's close to her special day. While she can come off as selfish, she's actually quite generous it's just that she's afraid to leave the palace so she's gotten a reputation that is a bit of a negative one. It all makes her rather anxious, though she hopes to one day outgrow both her anxiety and the negative connotation surrounding her name.

She enjoys writing and has even begun writing her own novel, though no one knows that, not even her ladies in waiting as it would be looked down upon. She's excited for the masquerade ball because it'll be a fresh start and no one will have any preconceived notions about her, which is what always seems to push people away whether it be platonic or romantic relationships.

Esme enjoys teasing her siblings as well as others she's close with, nothing too crazy of course, just snipping a hole in their trousers or gathering up chicken feathers and throwing them around claiming them to be snow. She's fun-loving, witty, and a hopeless romantic which is a bit dangerous during courting season. It doesn't come as a surprise that her ladies are worried about her falling for the first man she sees, after all, she's young and has never been in love.

Robert Augustus


Name: Prince Robert Alexander Augustus
Title/Job: The Eldest Prince
Gender: Male
Age: 24
Sexual/Romantic Orientation: Heterosexual

Personality: One of the greatest things known about the eldest prince is the fact that he is a notorious charmer. He loves giving the ladies his attention and affection with little care about who might know since it really has no consequences for him. He has been known to fool with women around the castle regardless of their status, so long as she has a pretty face he is very interested. The nice thing about him is that even after he is through with them he does feel responsible for them and does his best to make sure they are taken care of. He doesn't want them out on the street or fired or punished for just having fun so he will do what he can to look after them. He also is a complete gentleman towards the ladies, never doing anything they aren't comfortable with and giving them the respect that not many men give ladies. When you are his lady he showers you with gifts and affection, bringing you food, jewels, clothes, and taking you on trips. The greatest challenge with him is keeping his interest because once he gets bored he tends to move on to the next woman.

Robert is also very protective of his siblings. When an attempt was made on Emma's life several years back and her friend died instead, Robert made sure the assassin didn't even make it to the dungeon. He tackled the servant after they stabbed Emma's friend and took a knife to the gut during the process but also beat the man to death, only seeing red as he pictured this man hurting his sister. He did his best to be there for Emma through the loss of her friend and as he recovered from his injuries but alas it was hard to get through to her as it seemed she changed after that day. Still, the prince does all that he can to love and support his siblings, cleaning up their mistakes when they are made, being there for them when they need him, making sure to spend time with each of them so they know they are loved.

Along with his siblings, he also cares greatly for his people. He is a man who feels responsible for each of his subjects and takes their hardships very seriously. He does what he can in order to prepare to rule them, wanting to know all he can about them and their struggles. During the main harvest season, Robert actually takes several of his men out to the fields and works alongside the farmers.

History: Ever since Robert was young he has been readying himself for the job of being King that he would inherit one day. He excelled in his lessons for many years but as he grew his fascination with women grew and he became distracted by the lovely ladies around the palace. His studies began to take second place in his priorities and for a while, it stayed that way. However, when an upset servant tried to take his sister's life Robert's priorities changed once more. He began to take his duties and lessons more seriously because he knew the danger his family faced if he failed as a ruler and wants to do all he can to protect them. He still enjoyed his time with the ladies but became far better at managing both parts of his life so he could have fun but also be prepared. Two years ago he was seriously considering proposing to one woman he had been enjoying time with but when she left the palace very suddenly it left him broken-hearted and in a terrible mind space that he took months to get out of.

Brandish Rose


Name: Brandish Rose (The Poisoned Rose)
Title/Job: Personal Guard of Royalty
Gender: Female
Age: 21
Sexual/Romantic Orientation: Bisexual/Biromantic

Personality:
personality: Brandish isn't like most women you might find in the palace, she is strong, fierce, crude, and independent. While her name may be that of a Rose she is certainly no delicate flower. She will let no man tell her what to say or do or how she should act unless that man is paying her damn good coin, and even then he had better mind himself. She is no ones play thing, she is no ones toy, she is a warrior, a fighter, a killer, a thief, and she is damn good at what she does. Of course since she is a sell sword her skills and loyalty can be bought but if she likes an employer enough it might make her not wish to seek out further contracts or make her less willing to be bought off. She is certain to tell each of her employers that if someone with a bigger purse comes along she will do what is best for her business, but deep down she would likely stay loyal to someone she has been through a good amount with. She can be crude, direct, and even disrespectful, using her looks to lower her foes guard then striking when the time is right. She does not often show mercy but refuses to kill an innocent child, she would never harm one so young. Deep down Brandish has a good heart but she knows that having a good heart doesn't mean you will survive the cruelty of the world and so she will do whatever she needs to in order to make it to the next day. In private she does what she can to keep the customs of her people alive since she is the last of them after the genocide that wiped them out. She is flirty and funny while also clever and cunning.
good traits (5):
~Funny
~Strong
~Great work ethic
~Resilient
~Direct
bad traits (5):
~Crude
~Can be bought (except in certain situations or circumstances)
~Disrespectful
~Merciless (except in certain circumstances such as a child)
~Completely unlady-like
usual mood: Usually she has a fiery spirit that makes her an entertaining to travel with, she is funny and lacks manners but in a charming way.

History: TRIGGER WARNING FOR CHILD ABUSE!!!
Growing up is tough, but growing up alone on the streets is far tougher. This is the life Brandish knew after the slaughter of her people. In her mind there are almost no memories of warm hugs, soft kisses or lullabies to drift off to sleep to; there is only the need to survive, the cries of horror and bloodshed, and the pain of being too weak to protect herself. Yes, growing up alone on the streets is hard especially for a little girl. She cannot remember every face that caused her pain because there are too many to count, people took from her what little she had, called her filth, beat her and worse. Eventually Brandish became the property of a low life who forced her to steal for him, to serve him and do anything and everything he wished and when she didn't obey or even if he had an off day she was what he took out his frustrations on to the point that she still Life held no joy for Brandish, only fear and a need to survive, a need that grew as she grew and became stronger as she grew less scared and more enraged at being the property of this man.

Eventually one night when her master had had and off day and was in a particularly violent mood he came to her to try and release his frustrations on her. When he grabbed her she fought back like she never had before, she struck out and her most basic instincts told her exactly what she needed to do to survive and so she killed him. Blood poured from throat and dripped from the small blade in her hand and for the first time Brandish felt free and felt true joy because she had finally become strong enough not to just survive but to take a hold of her life and protect herself. After that night Brandish set out to learn from any who would teach her in the art of combat so that she would never again fall prey to the cruelty the world shows those who are weak. She trained with some of the most elite fighters in across the kingdom and became a legend in her own right. With her skills creating a name for herself became a sell sword who worked for whoever would pay her best. Now she enjoys the luxuries of her labor and her name means something to those who hear it. Now she is no longer the prey but instead has become the predator.Her skills ended up catching the eye of the royal family of a kingdom she was passing through and after being promised all the coin she could desire she agreed to become the personal guard of one of the royals who often found themself in trouble. Their bond has become very strong over her time working to protect them and she has honestly found a friend in the young royal.

Gavriel Rene


Name: Gavriel Rene
Title/Job: Lady in Waiting to Princess Emma
Gender: Female
Age: 22
Sexual/Romantic Orientation: Bisexual, Biromantic

Personality: Gavy is a firecracker for sure, if you set her off you had better be ready for what follows. She isn't above replacing your sugar with salt or perhaps something far less pleasant when provoked. She works hard to be there for Emma and all her needs, never wanting to let her princess down, and always grateful to Emma for all she has done for her. She is perhaps the most loyal friend the young princess could ever ask for because Gavy cannot be bought off and would rather be tortured and killed before betraying her princess. She has a fiery spirit that is not easily put out and isn't afraid to challenge others no matter their rank. She is also an incredibly sweet young woman who loves to give people gifts, make them smile, make them laugh. If she sees someone dying of embarrassment she will put herself on the spot in order to take the focus off the poor soul. She cares deeply for the people she is close to and will go to any length to keep them safe, even if it means her life is forfeit. When she loves it is one of the truest and purest forms of love you can imagine because Gavy doesn't just feel bits of emotion, she feels all of it with every piece of her being. She is sly, flirty, and very very clever, always gathering secrets and information to share with Emma so her princess is always in the know. She is also not as helpless as she might appear at first glance because she is a master of poisons and after almost losing Emma to an assassination attempt once already she keeps a fast-acting poison needle on her at all times hidden within her ring.
History: Gavy was actually born into a very wealthy family that was great friends with the King and Queen of Alor and grew up running around the palace at grand social gatherings with Emma. Unfortunately, when Gavy was 11 years old her parents passed away when their vessel was lost at sea, leaving Gavy alone with her family's great fortune but no one to look after her. The royals of Alor welcomed her into their home and there she grew alongside Emma, quickly going from being Emma's playmate to her Lady in Waiting. It was a great honor that Gavy takes seriously but that is not where her loyalty to Emma comes from. Her loyalty to Emma stems from the dark nights when she was full of sorrow and crying herself to sleep when Emma would come to her and hold her as she grieved the loss of her parents. Emma was the first and one of the few people to actually care about her and what she was going through and Gavy never forgot it.

Ronan Drax


Name: King Ronan Drax
Title/Job: King
Gender: Male
Age: 28
Sexual/Romantic Orientation: Heterosexual, Heteromantic

Personality: He is the kind of king who definitely has the respect and trust of his people. He sees himself as one of them rather than above them so he treats each of them with respect and the desire to see their lives made better. He is the kind of man who protects his loved ones with everything he has and the kind of king who would turn one of the extra castles in his kingdom into an orphanage so the orphans have a warm and safe place to live. He is the kind of man to get down and dirty while playing with his animals and always does his best to remember something special about the people who work in his palace. He is also the kind of king who leads his troops to battle and fights with them rather than sending someone else to do it. He leads by example and never forgets that everyone has something going on that is affecting them in their own way. He has a good sense of humor and loves to mess around, drink, and have fun with his friends and allies. If he gives you his word you had best believe he will follow through with it because he never goes back on a promise. Some might believe him to be too soft of a king but his people respect him and know that he would give all he has to keep them safe if he needed to. As friendly as he is, he can also be a beast if he sees others being mistreated or if someone he cares about is harmed by another. He will see red and react rashly but luckily this doesn't happen often. Very much a caring, loyal, for the people kind of king.
History: When Ronan was but a child both of his parents perished in a carriage accident on the mountainside. Ronan was too young to rule alone so his uncle was made acting regent until Ronan came of age. Ronan was set to learn diplomacy and spend time at a neighboring kingdom where he met his lifelong friend Draven and the two grew up together. When Ronan was about 16 years old he learned that his kingdom was not thriving in the way his uncle described in his letters. For years Ronan had been kept in the dark about how his uncle was running the country into the ground and taking all he could from its people. This would not stand. When Ronan made it clear he meant to return and take his throne back his uncle sent men to kill him, men who failed. Ronan snuck back into his country and began to hide among the people, helping them, ambushing his uncle's gold and food stores, taking out his uncle's allies one by one, and giving back to the people. As news of the young king and his efforts spread more and more people came to support Ronan, fighting by his side, lending him aid, his people chose to follow him. By the time Ronan was 19 he was knocking down the gate of his palace and dethroning his uncle, allowing his fate to be decided not by himself but by the people. This is why Ronan's bond with his people is so strong, why he cares so greatly for them because it was them who decided he was worthy of the crown not because he was born to it but because he deserved it.

Tamzin Delinor


Name: Tamzin Delinor
Title/Job: Duchess
Gender: Female
Age: 25
Sexual/Romantic Orientation: Bisexual, Biromatic

Personality: She is a very kind and warm young woman who is very motherly and friendly to almost everyone she meets. She has been through pain since she lost her husband to illness a few years back but is finally ready to try and find love once again. She certainly tries to take advantage of the beautiful moments, the times that count the most, she stores those memories away for the worst days when she needs to smile and remember that life can still be good. This is a lesson she tries to pass on to others in her own subtle way. She wants those around her to be able to remember the good times, to remember how to have a bit of happiness stored away for a rainy day. She is not all sunshine and rainbows, she is very realistic and knows how the world works, but she also knows that hope can be a very powerful thing, happiness or the promise of it can drive people to do the unimaginable. The world isn't kind but people can choose to be. She has the patience of a saint and is incredibly gentle with others, always ready and willing to listen to them. She prefers to smile and bring others smiles as well and does her best to hide the sorrow of losing her love.
History: When Tamzin first came to court to find her match it was an easy choice for her. She and her best friend Toben had been courting each other for years and everyone knew since they were small children that they were destined to be married and so they were. Her years with him as her husband were some of the best of her life, she loves, she laughed, she knew true happiness and that happiness only grew when their darling daughter Lilliana was born into the world. They were such a happy family, life was wonderful and they could face any hardship because they had each other. However, like most dreams, this one came to an end all too quickly. When a plague struck their hometown and their estate Tamzin lost the two greatest loves of her life. Toben and Lilliana both perished to the plague, Lilliana dying in Tamzin's arms the night after Toben passed. For a long time Tamzin wished the plague had taken her as well but instead she lived on, she grieved for years and kept to herself, over the past several months however she has begun to reappear in society and has now joined the courting arena once more.

Marya Blacktyde


Name: Captain Marya Blacktyde
Title/Job: Pirate Queen and Spice & Tea Trader
Gender: Female
Age: 22
Sexual/Romantic Orientation: Bisexual, Biromatic

Personality: Marya is like the ocean, she is beautiful, thrilling, every day with her is a new adventure, but if you seek to own her she will crush you. She values freedom above all else, so long as she is free she can figure out the rest. She isn’t against the idea of love and marriage, simply the ancient concept that a woman becomes a mans property once they are wed. In her eyes marriage is a partnership, a friendship, it is love and you do not own the people you love, they are there because there is nowhere else they would rather be. She is a woman who not only commands respect but has earned it from every single member of her massive crew. She is a businesswoman, she is clever, she knows how to navigate situations and when the wind is and isn’t shifting in her favor. When she cares for someone she cares for them deeply and would sail across the world if they asked her to. She craves adventure, glory, a life worth living and hopes to find someone who will want to share it with her. Talking down to her or trying to swindle her will only result in pain and fear for the poor bastard that thought such actions were a good idea. She is capable of mercy but knows that some situations require brutality in order to make others truly understand. Those who betray her walk the plank and those who are loyal are greatly rewarded, this is how she has come to earn the respect and love of her crew.
History: Marya was actually born to a noble house and spent the first 14 years of her life as the bane of her father’s existence. She did not settle down and act proper as most girl should, instead she ran off and sword fought with her uncle, got into fist fights with the boys around the castle, and refused to wear dresses. Her father punished her harshly for her behavior but it did not break her spirit and only drove her to continue to act out and be true to herself. One night her father called her to his study and there before him stood an old lord who her father told her she would wed on her 18th birthday. The vile old man was one she had heard was unkind and never had a wife that lasted long in his castle before they somehow disappeared. Refusing to give up her life, her freedom, Marya did the best thing she could think of and ran away. Her uncle helped her get as far as the ports of another kingdom and from that point she was on her own. Marya went to work getting any job she could and over the years she worked her way up in the world. In time she started her own crew, her own business, and then she expanded. She took out rivals and took over the seas to make her own empire. Now she is a queen in her own right, a captain of the fiercest fleet of pirates the world has ever known. She has never bothered to return home because her family stopped being her family the day they wished to sell her off.

Greyson Valor


Name: Captain Greyson Valor
Title/Job: Captain of the Royal Guard
Gender: Male
Age: 24
Sexual/Romantic Orientation: Heterosexual, Heteromantic

Personality: Greyson is a very mature young man who while handsome does not let his looks go to his head in the slightest. He has a deep sense of loyalty to the royal family as well as his fellow soldiers/guards. He lives by a code of honor, duty, and morality that has been with him since he was a child. He knew too many men growing up who were dishonest and disloyal and wants to make sure he is never like any of them. When push comes to shove though he isn't afraid to spin a tall tale to keep a prince, princess, loved one, or friend safe from certain consequences and would even go as far as to take the blame for them so they don't get in trouble/hurt. He can be very playful once you manage to get his mind off work, but that in itself is a great feat. He is the kind of man who will work himself into the ground and often needs to be reminded to take a break and get some rest. He is very confident in himself and his abilities but isn't careless enough to risk someone else for the chance to show off. His temper can sometimes get the better of him, especially when he sees someone being disrespectful to one of the princes or princesses and will get involved quickly with little care for the rank of the person he is going up against.
History: His father was a drunk who ran with a gang of raiders and took out his frustrations on Greyson and his brother. His brother stood up against their dad one day and Greyson didn’t back him up and his brother died which Greyson has never forgiven himself for his brother's death and thinks that if he has stood by him he would still be alive today. He swore to himself to be a man of honor like his brother tried to be and to never be like his father so he joined the military and eventually became Captain of the Royal guard.

Joesph Jenkins


Name: Joseph (Joe) Jenkins
Title/Job: Turnip Farmer
Gender: Male
Age: 23
Sexual/Romantic Orientation: Bisexual, Biromantic

Personality: Joe Jenkins is a humble man who doesn't ask for much but does all he can for his community. He likes to give back and help out, often offering to help with barn raisings as well as teaching the youngin's how to farm properly. He gets very excited and clearly has a great passion for agriculture and farming, especially turnips since they have always been his best crop. He knows he isn't the brightest but he has a big heart which he thinks is even more important than a big brain. He does his best to make others laugh and isn't afraid to make fun of himself if it means getting a smile on someone's face. While he is very respectful of those above his station he also isn't afraid to take a stand against them when they are being hurtful to others, when it is directed towards him though he tends to turn the other cheek. He is very confused as to why he was invited to this event but since it was a royal invitation he didn't want to be rude and refuse a royal summons. He doesn't have much but he plans to bring some of his finest crops to share with those who are also attending the event.
History: Joe has born and lived in his home village his entire life. His father was a farmer before him and now the two are neighbors who help each other out when needed and still often share meals. Joe was a soldier for a while but when his unit was disbanded he decided to return home to help in the fields before he actually had his own farm. Now as a proud farmer with his own land he tends his fields, helps out around the village, and takes his crops to festivals. At one of the most recent harvest festivals he won first place for the largest turnip which he is very proud of. A few weeks back he received an invitation to a courting event held by the royals and is confused as to why it was sent to him (it was meant for a Lord Joseph Jankis but the last name was misspelled) but plans to attend anyway so as not to seem rude.

Amunet Khalil


Name: Pharaoh Amunet Khalil
Title/Job: Pharaoh
Gender: Female
Age: 21
Sexual/Romantic Orientation: Bisexual, Biromantic

Personality: Amunet may look beautiful, perhaps even angelic, however, she is anything but. She is a very vain young woman who looks out for herself and her interests above all else because she learned at a young age that she would be the only one to do so. In a world run by men, she wanted to have some semblance of control and found it in her ability to control hearts and minds with her looks and charm which eventually is how she got herself a crown. She is a wonderful actress and can make others believe that she truly cares about their interests and ideas while really she is just trying to decide if you are worth her efforts or her time or not. When she is bored she loves to cause trouble, create drama between others, then sit back and watch her work and enjoy the entertainment it provides. She loves to have the attention of others and truly doesn't mind when people don't like her because surviving and thriving isn't about being liked in her eyes, it is about power and wealth. She is far more clever than many give her credit for which is how she managed to seduce the former pharaoh into marriage, gain the favor of his council, off him, and then take control of his kingdom for herself. If for some reason you do gain favor with her you can be certain it is because she has a vested interest in you as well as what you can do for her so as long as you are useful she will pull all the threads required to keep you safe. If you fall out of favor with her however you can be assured that she will quite enjoy making your life a living hell. To have her affection is to play with fire and hope not to get burned. It is exciting and full of warmth but can also cause you incredible pain in an instant if not handled properly. When you matter to her she will protect you from threats that you may or may not agree with whether you like it or not.
History: Amunet was a slave in the palace of the Pharaoh and because of her status she was often punished for no reason and told that without him and the slave masters she was nothing. For a long time she believed this and was compliant with her place in the world. This changed however when she was pushed too far one day and began to crave the power that would allow her to take vengeance for herself and her friend, the only person she truly cared for, who was beaten to death for someone else's mistake. Eventually, her beauty caught the Pharaoh’s eye and he decided to make her a consort which granted her certain powers and then his wife and as she got more power she craved even more and so she took it. As she took her place in his bed that night she took a dagger she had hidden there earlier and proceeded to slit his throat and watch the life fade from his eyes as he choked on his blood. She then cut herself and screamed, alerting the guards outside before knocking herself unconscious. Given her rank and the fact that she looked to be a victim as well no one suspected that she took her husbands life, especially since she had made sure to make it appear as though he was a beloved god among men in her eyes. No one questioned her as she pretended to grieve and since the Pharaoh had no heirs she took his throne. She pinned the murder of her husband on an unknown assassin and left evidence that pointed to the idea he was aided by the slave masters and heads of staff who used to beat her and tell her she was nothing.

Waverly Delmoro


Name: Waverly Delmoro
Title/Job: World Famous Musician and Artist
Gender: Male
Age: 23
Sexual/Romantic Orientation: Bisexual, Biromantic

Personality: Despite his fame and popularity among his fans Waverly has remained the sweet and humble young artist he always has been. He is confident in his work, his art, and his music but that is because he knows that what he creates is genuine and real and comes from his soul. He never set out to become as famous as he has but simply to enjoy the world and the beauty within it while also creating beautiful things himself. The riches he has acquired from his work are for the most part untouched because the young man would rather camp out beneath the stars than be cooped up in a lavish inn. He gives all that he has and all that he is with every piece of art and every performance he puts on. He gets nervous when approached by fans, especially large groups of them because as stated before he never expected to become so popular and is actually rather socially awkward. He has a good heart though and believes all people rich or poor deserve to enjoy art and beauty and will perform for the villages and the common folk without charging them a dime. He is not the best fighter and can frighten rather easily if you sneak up on him. His reflexes are pretty good however and so he tends to smash his lute against whoever sneaks up on him and scares him. He is honestly more of a lover than a fighter but would still throw himself in front of a sword to save another person.

History: Waverly quite literally came from nothing and somehow managed to make himself into someone that mattered. He grew up in a small orphanage after his parents died in a barn fire, he had nothing to his name except all that lay within his mind and heart. At a young age, he would sneak away from the orphanage and down to the slums where the beggers dwelled. It was there he learned from an old man named Prescot how to play his first instrument. Prescot taught him all he knew and the beggers all grew fond of the little boy who came to learn from one of their own. As Waverly grew he learned that family wasn't just blood but it was a bond you could share with those who bring you into their hearts and homes (no matter how small they may be) and treat you with love. The beggers became his family and when he was 12 they pooled what little money they had to buy him a small wooden flute. Waverly cherished the flute and the lute that they gave him and as he started his journey to travel the world he promised he would be back to take care of them. A couple years later the young boy who left returned as a young man with fame and money but no real desire to spoil himself but rather those who had always put him first. He took care of those beggers and treated them to new homes, plenty of food, and the best care he could afford. Even now as he travels the world playing his music and painting his masterpieces Waverly always manages to make his way back home to visit his family and meet any new members who they picked up while he was gone.

Natalia Deliora


Name: Lady Natalia Maria Deliora
Title/Job: Scholar, Researcher, Archeologist, Lady, Badass
Gender: Female
Age: 32
Sexual/Romantic Orientation: Bisexual, Biromantic

Personality: Natalia is a bold and straightforward kind of woman. She is brave and makes it clear that she has a no-nonsense sort of approach to most things, especially when dealing with others who are less agreeable. She is very proud and strong, always making it clear that she can stand on her own two feet and support herself, a trait not all men think highly of but she doesn't really care. This doesn't mean she isn't kind or caring because she very much is and will show it through her actions as well as her words. She can be tough, controversial even, and will always do what she thinks is right even if it has some element of risk to it. She doesn't do this because she is foolish, she does it because she knows that in the heat of the moment when a choice needs to be made she need to trust what her heart and mind are telling her because it is honestly how she has made it this far. She can be very charming and will often indulge others in stories of her exploits and adventures as well as enjoy listening to the stories others have to tell. While she studies other civilizations and their histories as well as goes on dangerous archeological missions to retrieve lost artifacts she always remembers that she is doing this for the pursuit of knowledge and the good of the culture, not for money or power. She is lucky to come from a family of wealth and tends to have contacts all over the world who she can usually trust to call in a favor from and who she treats as friends and with great respect no matter their status. When she loves she is passionate but careful because she does not wish to be hurt by the person her heart longs for. She will be friendly and flirty but also respectful and analyze the situation while also making her interests known since she doesn't like to beat around the bush. She is a loyal, skilled, and well-connected ally who has one of the brightest minds of the age.

History: Natalia Deliora was born to famed adventurer Rodrigo Deliora and Lady Amilia Deliora-Westcot. Her mother died when she was young and Natalia has very few memories of her but those she has she holds onto because she wants to always remember the wonderful woman her mother was. After the passing of her mother, she and her father became very close. She would accompany him on his adventures from time to time but mostly she was left home to be educated by the finest tutors as she eagerly awaited her fathers return or letters from him while he was away. Both her parents were quite wealthy and so Natalia grew up with the finest of things but was an absolute headache for her tutors and those who desired to make her a lady because she wanted too greatly to be an adventurer like her father rather than a simple lady. She mastered the manners skills when her father asked her to but also took up a private education that allowed her to learn all she needed to know in order to be an archeologist and scholar so she too could go on adventures. When she was 14 her father left on an artifact mission and never returned, the letters stopped and Natalia was never told what happened to him. To this day she still believes he could be out there and that she must find him. She graduated top of her class from an institute that she had to fight tooth and nail to get into and began her career as an adventurer, scholar, and archeologist just like her father. She has traveled around the world, uncovered ancient mysteries, and even explored some of the ancient tombs of Xīnghóng with the permission of their empress who has become a close and personal friend. Her research and fame has made her well known to many royals as well as her title so when she returned home to her family estate after a long trip away she was met with an invitation to the Alor courting season. Driven by curiosity she agreed to attend and was delighted to hear that her dear friend Lixue Gōngsūn would also be in attendance.

history









alizeh kaya was not born with such a name nor has she always been a royal servant of alor. once upon a time, she was alizeh demir, the daughter of the king and queen of safran and the proclaimed crown princess of the kingdom.

as the only child of the royal pair of safran, alizeh was naturally spoiled with riches and received some of the best education within the kingdom's bounds. safran had been in an unstable state for generations due to the crumbling political and social systems. her parent's attempt to modify the system over the years was not met without opposition either and rebellions were not uncommon. so, along with her pretty dress and academic studies, alizeh was also trained in self-defense and how to wield her surroundings as a weapon.

one night, when alizeh was around thirteen years old, rebels stormed the palace, killing most that were inside--including her beloved parents. the young princess, however, managed to escape through the hidden passages within the structure with the help of a young guard whom was the son of a trusted family friend of her parents. together, the two fled to alor, leaving everything behind.

after her successful, grueling escape to alor with the guard, the two had little to no money on their hands. so, the two of them sold whatever they had on them in favor of basic needs and changed their names. they vowed to never speak of their former identities. for years, alizeh worked multiple jobs to make ends meet as did her loyal companion. even between the two of them working together, they did not always live comfortably.

after many years of struggle, alizeh was recently able to score a job as a servant at the royal palace.

Titled "Empress of Beauty and Blood", Lixue may be small in height but she makes it up with her dominating presence. She is a very beautiful woman of Asian descent, considered especially beautiful amongst women with her monolid doe eyes, small nose and petite frame. Her skin is quite pale -like fresh snow as her name implies- with no blemishes or freckles in sight; she could do to weigh a bit more but constant stress has caused her ribs to protrude more than she would like and her arms borderline skeletal. Lixue is most admired for her face among some of her subjects. It is ideal; shaped like a sunflower seed with her dainty features, onyx-colored eyes and very long oil slick hair. She rarely has her tresses down but when they are, straight and shimmering hair like black silk drags along the floor by a couple inches. Being a monarch does not allow her style of dress to be anything but elegant and flowing; in full regalia, it takes several hours for her to be ready to do her duties. Her casual clothing still can be quite enchanting to look at but nobody except her family members have seen her in lounge wear.
03
personality
Lixue is a tiny woman, unassuming and as pretty as a red rose. That is what makes her all the more dangerous of a force to be around. Upon first greetings, Empress Lixue is one to acknowledge whomever stands before her and adjusts her mannerisms accordingly to appear as charming as possible. Her subjects see her as a divine being, untouchable to any mortal and revered, but outsiders find her to just be plain frightening. For a monarch, Lixue speaks kindly to everyone she comes across -choosing to be a benevolent individual to those in need. It is one of her most well liked qualities as an empress. She does not domineer over others instead remaining quietly assertive, understanding the power and wealth she holds. Even though she possesses these highly coveted qualities, Lixue is not a self-absorbed ruler like many others; she chooses to be fastidious with how she uses both.

However, being born into royalty has not allowed her to remain a virtuous woman. Lixue is much wiser beyond her years, weighing decisions that best benefit her empire and her people. Sometimes those decisions are cold or unfair; some of them are hard, forcing her to choose one or the other. It isn't something she likes to do. She tries her best to appear as collected and elegant as possible, catering loyalty from her people but even she knows not everyone approves of her. And those people, the ones that think it better that she be dead, meet an unfortunate fate. Lixue has a firm belief that a problem should be removed by the root, not the stem, so it isn't uncommon for her to execute her opposition, there family members and any followers they may have acquired. Lixue's education has given her many qualities including confidence, grace, insight and wit, all providing her the ability to lead her empire forward but that also means making friends is nearly out of the equation. With so much on her plate all the time, it leaves her very little social time and the times she does socialize, it is to appease noble families, meet with officials or charity work with commoners; it is never just a cup of tea and time to small talk.

As a woman -not an empress- Lixue displays a very rare side of herself. She has a more relaxed demeanor, enjoying the small amount of peace she has. She places high value on elegance, finding nature and animals to hold some of the most elegant sights; her secret love of gardening -specifically flowers- helps to calm her mind. Her unusual need to do things without the aid of servants in specific tasks may stem from her childhood. Due to how she was raised, Lixue can be considered very spiritual with a strong belief that spirits exist all around, following through with proper traditions and rituals to honor those spirits. Even so, during these moments of relaxation, it is difficult for her to not think of the work she has to do; she can easily overwork herself into a state of sickness and can get tunnel vision towards her goals without regard to her wellbeing. While she finds others important, Lixue does not find herself to be all that important -just another ruler who will be forgotten with time.

When it comes to all matters of romance, Lixue has many restrictions. As an empress, her mother always told her to marry for political reasons while her father pushed for a marriage based on love. It resulted in her views on marriage to be a precarious balancing act. She has no issues speaking with men and women, even going so far as light flirting through soft romantic words and thoughtful gifts but that is as far as she can go. Lixue doubts her ability to properly care for a significant other, believing her life of work would prevent her from giving them the attention they deserve. She tends to overthink what the right course of action is towards those interested in her. Unfortunately, she has had to learn that many people are only interested in her title, not her. It has made her a hesitant person towards affection directed towards her, unsure of what there interest may be thus her mannerisms could be confused as shy or coy; it is just her exercising caution, to size up what there true intentions may be.

backstory
Lixue was born in the early morning on November 2nd, the first snowfall of the season symbolizing her namesake. She was the third child -second daughter- to the 87th empress, Fen-fang, and her official husband, Xing. Her birth was celebrated by the people for a little over a week, receiving gifts from all over to give blessings of good health and fortune. Growing up, Lixue could have everything she ever wanted but she was never a selfish child; in fact, she was quiet, unassuming and compassionate. She was favored by her father, the Emperor, who was a soft-spoken man that rarely left the inner palace. He would often tell her legends of the empire, walking through the large garden his wife had gifted him years ago and play hide-and-seek with her. Her time spent with Xing far outweighed the time she spent with her mother. The Empress rarely had any time for her daughter except for meals but even so, Fen-fang was a cold woman -nicknamed The Winter Empress- even to her own flesh and blood. The empress would spend the rest of her free time indulging her many consorts.

By the time Lixue was eight, she had become the older sister of five sister and two brothers making Fen-fang a mother of ten children. At that point, Lixue had begun her royal education. She had to learn politics, etiquette, music, literature, archery, equestrian and so many more subjects than she could possibly imagined. It left her with less time to spend with her father and siblings. Her brothers did not receive the same education as her and her sisters, seeing much less of them. In the time she had, Lixue would sneak over to see the palace gardeners who taught her about how to care for flowers. It took quite some time before her mother caught wind of her escapades, punishing the servants for speaking casually to a princess and increasing Lixue's workload. Lixue was twelve when the first assassination attempt happened. She had been travelling to the summer palace in a carriage with her oldest brother and sister, fourteen and seventeen, when an opposing political faction of violent individuals attacked there caravan. While they had been aiming for the carriage of the empress and emperor who were actually in the back, they ended up attacking Lixue's carriage. The guardsmen were highly outnumbered and before reinforcements had arrived, they managed to fatally wound her brother and permanently scar her sister -both protecting her from death.

Empress Fen-fang was enraged by the attack, growing more harsh as a ruler towards her people and increasingly paranoid. Lixue grieved for a long time over the loss of her siblings but being thrust forward as the next crown princess didn't allow her to fully comprehend the loss. When she was fifteen, her mother began to change; her actions became less refined and more violent, she started to see things that were not real and go into ranting fits, talking to nobody but herself. She began to lose sleep due to unexplained anxiety and paranoia that she was going to be killed. Lixue watched in horror the slow mental and physical decline of her mother. Doctors could not explain what was happening to her and tried many medications to try and cure her madness. It took months before one doctor figured out she had Jimsonweed poisoning. An investigation found that one of her consorts had been slipping the plant into her tea for quite a while; he was swiftly executed but not before the damage had been done. Empress Fen-fang was unable to be cured thus she passed away when Lixue was seventeen. Becoming the 88th empress as a teenager was difficult; she had to fight to be taken seriously by her competition and reverse the damage her mother had left behind. She was twenty when another attempt on her life was made, an assassin sneaking into the palace and attempting to shoot her with poisonous needles. The attempt failed.

Her response to the attempt earned her title, Empress of Beauty and Blood, by launching what was called The Spider Lily Purge. Soldiers were sent throughout the kingdom to execute Lixue's strongest opposition, there family members and any who followed them. It was a violent and bloody political decision that ultimately paid off for her. Many of her enemies were not good people that preyed on the weak so commoners found her actions to be helpful while noble families and officials saw her as barbaric for it. Being so young and making such choices solidified her position on the throne where she has remained. Shortly after her 28th birthday, an invitation arrived to a courting event in the kingdom of Alor, far across the land and ocean. It had confused her so she asked her father about it; he had apparently been acquainted with the king before he fell ill thus they received an invitation that was originally meant for her long dead older sister. Lixue knows she is not getting any younger so decided to accept the invite and began making plans for travel since it would take nearly five months to get to Alor.

relationships
Lixue is unfamiliar with most royals of other countries since very few -if any- visit her empire. The customs of Xīnghóng can be very off putting to most. However, due to the courting event, she had some agents gather intel on who would be at the event so she wouldn't be surprised and could plan ahead on how to interact with them. She was surprised to see Natalia Deliora on the list of invited since she had met the woman before. Natalia was a well respected researcher that had visited her empire. Lixue was a little hesitant towards the woman but eventually found her to be charming and valuable intellectual; she had been the first person given permission to explore the complex tombs of previous empress'. Natalia was gifted a golden Zan (hairpin) when she left as means of giving her access into the empire if she chose to come back again.

her homeland
Place of Origin
Xīnghóng Empire

Also known as The Scarlet Empire, it is a land to the far east of the world. It is surrounded on all sides by the perilous Yīng mountain range that has prevented invasion from most other countries for years but has also isolated them from most of the world. Huì pass is the only way into the empire, a long and treacherous path through the mountains. The weather tends to be more humid with a plethora of lakes and rivers across the land; summers are very hot while winters are mild with little snow. There thriving economy comes from the exportation of goods, particularly the high amounts of rice and iron they provide to other countries; they also export jade, amethyst and peridot in high quantities. They are also known for having a large and powerful navy force, dissuading attacks from countries via the sea.

The empire has a long history of being a matriarchy, ruled by an empress, and having a matrilineal inheritance. Quite opposite to the western countries, men are traditionally lesser than woman and face inequality throughout society. Most men excluding the emperor and highest officials, have no political power (unable to vote) and are expected to be subservient to there wives. They tend to have jobs in medicine, the arts or small business owners; most can learn archery but not swordsmanship and have the option to join the military but it is not required from them. Unmarried men cannot approach unmarried women; women are expected to start a courtship and provide for there husbands. Men are considered adults at twenty. Once married, many stay home to raise the children while there wives work.

On the other hand, women are held to unreasonably high expectations of providing for there husbands and children. They are able to vote, own property, run a business, etc. Every woman excluding the royal family has to serve a mandatory military service of one year at sixteen while it is optional for men. It is frowned upon for a woman to not know swordsmanship since it is seen as a form of protection for her family. They pass along there property and fortune to there daughters. The death of a noble family is a saying used to describe mothers that only have sons and there is a high stigma of women birthing a son first, seen as a sign of misfortune. Women are adults at eighteen. There is much less push for them to marry young as compared to men.

The empire follows a caste system, often referred to as The Huāyuán, that separates people based on merits and honor, not wealth. It is represented by circle of rings that steadily trail outward. The center circle Liánhuā, contains the Empress as she is the highest and most supreme power in the empire. The next ring is Huābàn which has the royal family and government officials. Next is Gàn where honorable spiritualists, people of the military, artists and surprisingly, farmers take precedence. After them is Yèzi, a faction of high-ranking families, merchants, artisans, business owners and laborers. The final ring Gēn contains criminals and fallen nobles with no merits or honor to there name.

1.
She was gifted a gorgeous Eastern Imperial Eagle when she ascended the throne from her father. She named the large bird Zhìzhě or Sage for it's beautiful green eyes and sharp intellect. The bird is more of an independent pet that is always nearby though you may not always see it.

2.
Lixue's mother tongue is Mandarin, particularly a dialect belonging only to the royal family. She has learned how to speak English, Japanese, Korean, Italian, German, Spanish and French throughout her education as well; her French and Spanish are her weakest two so she struggles a bit to make those out.

Update: Both Ruggie and Renita are finished, Dimitri will be done at some point tomorrow!

98128f0c3b445ea8709c907af8bb7c51.gif

Name: Rupert “Ruggie” Veldera
Title/Job: Jester
Gender: Male
Age: 26
Sexuality: Demisexual/romantic

Personality: Ruggie likes to think of himself as an honest man, even if it means telling a fraction of the truth. The funniest jokes are told with a grain of truth, after all. It’s what’s kept him in his position for so long. Being an entertainer has made him a bit of a people pleaser, he absolutely can’t stand to see someone upset. He does worry about coming off as overbearing and will absolutely back off if you tell him to. Boundaries are important, no matter status. He’s incredibly thoughtful with his material and spends hours writing and rewriting jokes. Despite being taken as anything but serious, he’s good for giving mostly unbiased advice. It normally comes at a price, he knows the worth of his skills. Typically it’s just an extra roll at dinner or a shared glass of wine. Despite being surrounded by people who live lavish lives, money and power mean very little to him. He’s seen the predicaments being king can get people in and it doesn’t seem worth the trouble. Enough resources to keep going and good company are plenty for him.

History: Ruggie grew up with his parents at the edge of a relatively large town. He played ball with other kids, looked out for those younger than him, and enjoyed a relatively peaceful existence. At least, that’s what he thought. As he grew and watched his parents interact, he realized their marriage was a loveless one. Even more disheartening, he realized that seemed to be completely normal. He assumed that emptiness would never escalate to something more until his childhood home mysteriously burnt down with what was thought to be his parents inside. Unbeknownst to anyone else, he’d seen his mother fleeing while everyone else occupied themselves with stopping the blaze from spreading. Ruggie, age 15 at the time, had gained enough life experience to realize what was going on. The second body they found in the charred remains of his home were in fact a woman’s, one who had chosen the wrong married man to make friends with. Ruggie had been working as an apprentice to a carpenter, though finding his true calling continued to elude him with every occupation he tried to master. His first introduction to the royal court had been as an assistant to a band at a party. While he himself wasn’t performing, he managed to make quite the impression telling jokes and socializing. He was surprised to find himself with both a job and a new sense of satisfaction with life.

Name: Renita Hazelia
Title/Job: First Mate on the Kraken’s Fury
Gender: Female
Age: 20
Sexuality: Pansexual/romantic

Personality: Renita is headstrong and confident, she has to be to make a good first mate. While the power and respect will always belong ultimately to Marya, she’s earned a fair bit of her own acting in their captain’s absence. Strategy is far from her strong suit, but quick wit resides among her greatest talents. She’s a survivalist all in all, having spent much of her young life pulling scraps together and making everything they might need herself. She never makes threats she can’t follow through on, especially in the name of her found family. She’s also an amazing storyteller, mostly due to an incredibly active imagination. She honors every member of their crew with a tale of their most impressive feat. Despite being the right hand woman to the captain, she tends to be everyone’s confidant. The key to being a good leader, at least in her experience, is to know your people and understand that the respect is mutual. Anything someone brings to her, at least that isn’t too serious, stays between them. Her trust is earned through actions and there is no greater show of trust than spilling secrets together. She’s a team player, always striving for the least casualties and the best possible outcome. That just means she has to be incredibly over prepared for the worst outcomes. She tends to be a busybody, if she isn’t actively doing something it drives her nuts. She’ll settle down and relax after some rum, but even then she at least has to be humming a tune to feel at ease.

History: Renita grew up in a port town with her mother. Her father disappeared when she was young, though she still keeps a few memories of him with a locket he gifted her mother with when they first began courting one another. They didn’t have much growing up, but they were happy enough just being together. In hindsight, Renita’s glad she cherished that time with her mother in the moment. A few months before her 13th birthday, her mother’s health began to decline rapidly. She couldn’t work anymore and stayed home while Renita went out and did odd jobs at the dock. Loading, unloading, tying down the ships to port, even patching the sailors’ clothes became a regular source of income. Anything too expensive, she made by hand, and she took the best care of her mother that she could. All of the bed rest bought her mother almost a year of extra time with her, and that goodbye was the hardest one she’s ever had to say. At age 14, she met Marya while sewing patches in her captain’s pants. The two became fast friends, sharing their dreams. A life on the sea sounded wonderful, getting to see the world and live as she pleased had always been tempting. With a bit of extra convincing from her newfound companion, she felt that her mother would’ve wanted her to leave and find her own happiness where ghosts couldn’t hold her down. She’s followed Marya ever since, living on in memory of her mother.

Faceclaim: Tati Gabrielle

smile-benjamin.gif

Name: Dimitri Nathair
Title/Job: Scholar/Tutor
Gender: Male
Age: 27
Sexuality: Pansexual/romantic

Personality: Dimitri is a bit on the quiet side, preferring to listen and gather information from a distance. Once you get him talking though? He’s got plenty of philosophy to share and ideas he’s been dying to run by people. He tends to be a bit idealistic, trying to see the best in people despite the truth of the world. Learning and teaching are his passions, he wouldn’t be a tutor otherwise. Naturally, his line of work has made him pretty good with kids and still acts young enough that his older pupils feel comfortable sharing their struggles with him. He’s incredibly patient and rarely raises his voice unless you’ve really managed to anger him. Usually he’s level headed enough to leave a situation and let things simmer down, especially when it comes to anyone of higher standing. The last thing he needs is to have his hard earned reputation ruined by a silly argument. Despite being more of the “booksmart” type, he’s fairly skilled with a dagger and can defend himself as needed. He has a very limited social battery and will usually break away from crowds every so often to compose himself. As someone who values his peace and quiet, it can be a little overwhelming.

History: Dimitri’s parents weren’t exactly nobles, but they did own a plot of land that produced a decent amount of crops and animal products. While his days were usually spent helping them tend the fields or take care of the animals, he spent every spare moment he had with the limited library his parents kept. What he couldn’t find out in books, he’d try to find out elsewhere. On their trips into the town’s market, he’d do his best to find the right people to take his questions to while his parents handled their business. As he grew and learned to save money where he could find it, so did his collection of books. When the time came for him to seek apprenticeship, he turned to the local scholar. The elderly man shared what resources he had, only furthering DImitri’s curiosity and thirst for knowledge. Eventually, the man passed and had named him his prodigy. Unlike his teacher, he left his doors wide open so anyone in town could come to seek answers with him. Of course, this didn’t do so well for business. He found himself living off what little people had to donate until word of his teaching prowess spread. Soon, he was offered jobs teaching the sons and, occasionally, daughters of nobility. He left his own apprentices in charge of maintaining his position during his absences until he finally felt one of them was ready to replace him. No longer tied to a local position, he began taking jobs further and further from home. Getting to travel and to teach? What more could he ever ask for.

NICKNAME
n/a

AGE
twenty-three

DATE OF BIRTH
03/19

GENDER
male

SEXUALITY
pansexual

OCCUPATION
N/A

ROLE
prince

Virtues: Confidence, Courage, Loyalty, Patience, Trust, Self-discipline
Vices: Erratic, Envy, Rashness, Short-Sightedness, Crabbiness, Avarice

Likes: Rainy days, long conversations, new discoveries, creativity, small animals, smiles, laughter
Dislikes: Meaningless combat, laziness, Prejudice, Total silence, greed, winter, basic people

Main Strength(s): One of the main strengths that Harry possesses is his ability to hold a conversation. This isn't to be confused with basic day-to-day conversion or side talk, but deep conversations that are often favored in decision-making processes. You can safely assume that he has an intelligent way with words and, more often than not, is able to slip out of a difficult situation without the need for any physical combat or harsh disagreements. Although true, this can often turn into a downside when in situations where he would need to suppress his speech or not be in a leadership position. This is also a downside when it becomes a boastful move more so than a needed one.
-----
Main Weakness(es): His main weakness is that he can be seen as someone who flies through life too fast. More specifically, Harry is one who cannot stay in a current situation or spot in his life for too long, it is harder for him to be satisfied with what he has. He always has the need to learn more, know more, and see more. It is easy to interpret this as a strength, and in honesty, it can very well be that in a lot of circumstances, but when it comes to relationships (not just romantically, but friendships and family as well) it can seem like an endless battle to keep his attention and to keep up with him in general. This can very easily become his inevitable downfall.
-----
Mental Ailments: Harry does not have any known mental ailments
-----
Fear(s): Ask him if he has any fears and he would quick-wittedly tell you that he has plenty, but constantly tries his best to face them. This is true, however, Harry is the type of individual who would constantly anchor their deepest fear at the bottom of an ocean and forget about it. He isn't afraid to live nor die, and he isn't afraid to take risky chances even if it's almost certain to end fatally. He is afraid that he'll reach the hard end of not having any more of a mountain to climb. At the very top, would he still long for more or would he feel like he finally got all that he wanted? At that point, would death be the only answer that would finally free him?

Personality


Bold, defiant, and determent are just a few words to explain the vibrant personality that Harry possesses. He knows that he has an intelligent mind and uses it to his advantage every chance he gets. Among his friends and family, Harry is known as someone who is always kicked into overdrive and loves every moment of it. In addition, he will never be seen standing on the sidelines or not standing up for what he believes in. Headstrong with the pre-mentality to persevere and thrive no matter what the situation may be. Defending his loved ones comes naturally to him, and he will never let you down if you are on his side. However, Harry often forgets to take the feelings or lives of others into account when he is trying to advance or better himself (not to be confused with ending up getting someone killed, but more-so like changing this one thing without asking someone else or without thinking about how the other will feel). To those on the outside, words such as "self-fish" or "egotistical" could be thrown around carelessly. For those that know him, they will say that he tries to build a better legacy for everyone who is in his life. Unfortunately, he overestimates situations a lot and sometimes makes matters worse than better even if it is with good intentions. Although true, he is not afraid to admit his mistakes and slip-ups.

For his enemies, he keeps a close eye on them. He hounds over knowing their every move depending on how and why they became foes. Harry is above getting pay back the original way and rather destroy the competition in the long run if he can. If not then, if within good reasoning, he is prepared to go face to face argumentatively. Unless it is something serious, Harry does not hold grudges against anyone. With that being said, he also does not forget any encounters and will most likely avoid that individual unless it is necessary not to.

Love interests for Harry come often due to his status, but he doesn't indulge or give into them as much as one may think. It is not that he ignores them, but he often finds those interests boring or so dull that he wouldn't be able to last much if he were to go after them. When in relationships, his partner will quickly realize how much his time is divided between his desires and other projects he decides to work on. They will often feel like whenever they are at an amazing place with him, Harry will long for something higher or more excited than what he has. Most noticeably with him is his ability to be unpredictable and spontaneous, often paired with his need for adventure. He has a tendency to take off somewhere but would always let his partner know before he does (even if it's literally before he does). The most important takeaway from this is that one of his core morals is loyalty and honesty above all else. When he runs off in the middle of the night, he is not running off in the middle of the night to cheat or dishonor his relationship.

History

Harry was born into royalty within France, which surprisingly he spends the least amount of time in. His parents will constantly tell him that he needed to be at home more, to which he does try his best to until he gets bored again and runs off. That's how Harry was, even as a little child he would run off into the woods by himself. Of course, as all little children do, he got into danger more times than he could remember. In an effort to stop his little feet from taking off so often, his father decided to gift him literature that when counted, added up to more pages than any of their ages put together. Now, this was supposed to be a way to keep Harry inside for as long as possible... but what should have been read within a month was finished within a week. That was where his love for reading and writing came from, and he hadn't put down a pen since.

He wasn't the only child, Harry had a younger sister as well that he frequently got in trouble with. Although they were born at different times, it was like the two of them were glued together perfectly. The troubling thing is, when you have two headstrong children who beat to their own drums, well it would eventually pay its own price.

The two of them always had devious plans between the two, one of which happened more recently than others even though they were told not to. The battling grounds were never a place for children, but Harry and his sister always hid away in their usual spot. For the most part that was true, except this time felt particularly off (as Harry would put it if you asked him). That day he repeatedly told her that he did not want to do their daily routine, but he was never the person that would be satisfied with her going alone. The only problem is that she was already halfway there and Harry lagged behind. It was no big deal though, the two of them always ran off ahead to check the area for any grown-ups that would catch them. The sound of clanking got louder for him as he got closer to their spot, that was before shouting and the sounds of running followed immediately after.

It was a tragedy that Harry witnessed firsthand at such a young age. Ask him about it and he laughs it off, saying it was a blur even though it has played vividly in his head for many years. Within the few months, after it happened, his father had made it known repeatedly that they were supposed to be together and that they didn't need to be over there in the first place. By now he has apologized for it, but Harry believes that deep down his father will never forgive him for it.

People always tend to ask him why he can't stay in one place or why does, it is because he refuses to suffer the same fate. Living and dying in the same place without an ounce of impact on the world? Harry would disagree.

Bonus: Harry started his larger adventures on his own right after his sister was laid to rest. He couldn't get the gruesome images out of his head and the smell of her was so bad that he threw up repeatedly. So instead of wallowing in self-pity, he took initiative.

    hair

    luca has naturally wavy hair that grows rather quickly so he likes to keep them short. it is very soft to the touch and can get very unruly in the mornings. in the sunlight, his tresses are pretty shades of oak, mahogany and tawny interwoven together with ebony strands but in the shadows, it looks either dark brown or black. a small braid is interwoven near his left ear, decorated with several silver ornaments.

    eyes

    oh, how a man can have such beautiful eyes is unclear but luca unquestionably holds oceans in his vision. each eye is a vibrant shade of ocean blue overlapping with aegean and emerald; a ring of cobalt surrounds his irises, flecks of fern green completing the intricate orbs. luca can often make people hesitate or look twice due to his majestic gaze. for him, he hates his eyes and wishes they were different.

    body type

    not too tall and not too small, luca is just average. he has a rectangular shaped frame where his shoulders and hips are in line with each other. his shoulders and arms have some muscle build-up due to his occupation but otherwise he is kind equally built with some baby fat around his hips and face still. he has told his hands are pretty once or twice but otherwise he finds himself unassuming or interesting.

    body mods

    he has single lobe piercings on his ears, adorned with a precious pair of obelisk earrings that glow in the dark since they are made from luminescent sapphires.

    body style

    luca works with birds all day, birds with very sharp talons and beaks which has given him a habit of being bundled and layered up for safety. due to that logic, tightly-fitted leather gauntlets starting at his wrist and ending over his elbows are rarely take off. fingerless leather gloves are also found on his hands as well. since leather cannot be dyed, luca sews dark green linen over it that he changes every so often. he likes to be comfortable more than anything and has a large assortment of hooded cloaks. very rarely won't find him bundled up in a cloak.

psyche









elias exist between the planes of good and bad. he is both and neither at that same time. but, that is what happens to a man who has had to sacrifice some of his humanity in order to survive and fulfill the duties he has bound himself to. he does not always enjoy doing so, but if he deems it necessary, well, then it is a necessity. though he can certainly be ruthless, violent and extraordinarily cunning, he can also be charismatic and appears to be relatively easy-going under the public eye. he has a witty tongue and enjoys messing with others. he enjoys a little bit of humor and adventure, you know? at the same time, the young man knows when to be serious.

elias has proven himself to be a devoted individual. he is a man of his word, though he can be crafty when it comes to making promises. even so, he is a person with a lot of secrets much like alizeh. but unlike his adoptive sister, he might be willing to do anything to keep some of those secrets. as one can imagine, trust does not come easy to someone like him.

there is a lot to unpack with someone like elias, but, perhaps, that is just what makes him an interesting individual.

virtues: devoted, witty, easy-going, open-minded, brave, charismatic, realistic, strategic
vices: ruthless, cunning, manipulative, distrustful, unpredictable, violent






likes

teasing others, swordsmanship, adrenaline rushes, exercising, dark humor and humor in general, alcoholic beverages, adventure, being surprised, rain, sparing






dislikes

betrayal, anyone who tries to harm alizeh, being ignored, being constrained, sickly sweet desserts, boredom, playing by the rules, keeping his mouth shut sometimes






fears

failing to protect his loved ones, returning home, that he is tainted by his past and that he will end up alone because of it

history









elias kaya was not born with such a name. like alizeh, he once went by a different identity--elias velasco. the velasco family was a highly influential family within the kingdom of safran and was deeply devoted to the royal family. his mother had been a lady-in-waiting to the former queen before her marriage to his father. so, it was naturally assumed that elias would be given a trusted position within the kingdom when he came of age.

as his parents spent a lot of time at court, elias grew up mostly within the grand palace's walls. like most children of nobility, he had access to some of the best tutors in the kingdom. while he did attend his studies as a child per his parent's influence, he was more drawn to the art of war, and though his parents were reluctant to allow their only son to participate in such, they gave in to his desire.

at the age of seventeen, elias was appointed as crown princess alizeh's personal guard. though he was young, the king and queen were highly impressed by his skill in the art of battle, and because of their close bond with his parents, he was found to be the most suitable candidate for the job.

when rebels stormed the palace when he was nineteen, the young guard was the one to save the young princess and help her escape to alor. like his companion, he had lost his family that night. though he had wanted to save them too, he had to make a choice and, well, the oath that he had made when he had become alizeh's personal guard had won.

after their escape, the two had little to no money on their hands. so, the two of them sold whatever they had on them in favor of basic needs and changed their names. they vowed to never speak of their former identities. for years, elias took on multiple jobs in order to keep them afloat, but sometimes it was only enough to meet the very basics.

when alizeh decided to take a job as a servant at the palace, the former lord managed to secure a position as a guard in order to stay close to her.

This is just a short bio for now until I am able to fill it out completely!

Genevieve's parents were poor and saw their opportunity of having several children as a way to make a profit. Gene, being the youngest, watch all of her siblings go until it was down to her. Forced into a lifestyle she didn't like, Gen decided to take matters into her own hands and escape the grasps of the people her parents sold her to. The first several times she escaped, she would get caught and be brought back within minutes of being out until she got wiser with her efforts. Her soon-to-be "husband" decided it was best if Gen had been locked up, which didn't go so well for him as Gene developed a plan that successfully ended in the death of the man and her parents. She did not do this alone though, yet such a past like this is never spoken about. She will either tell you her fantasy story of perfect parents who died of illness or that she was raised by travelers.

Her choice to become a bounty hunter fell in line perfectly with her trying to also get away from her painful past. It had taken her a few years to not be actively on the run, but she knows that there are people still out there looking for her. Because of how frequent bounties move about and travel around, it was the easiest and most undercover thing Gene could have picked up at the time, and so she took it. Was it her first choice? Of course not, her first choice would have been to let her parents have it right then and there if she knew of her capabilities. Almost any job could have been safer and far less enemy-making, but staying in one place for too long was never her thing to begin with.
