Some Canon Characters

[FaerieDust]

ROYALTY

[/SIZE]

Queen Emme

Fidelity, Strength, Power

[/color]

Queen Emme is the widow of King Aeron. While it is unknown if she loved the king, as he was gone to crusades in the south for near 11 years (though this is up to you if she did or not) she was loyal to him until the end and continues to be loyal to his house, and their children. She is as fierce as the gryphon that symbolizes the Farseeker House and will do anything to protect her brood and ensure they stay on the throne. Her secret though? She is not of royal or noble blood. She is actually the daughter of a shepherd and a fairy. No one outside her immediate family but Aeron knew this, not even her children. She does have fairy influence, but she is not adept at magic herself. With some fairy intervention, she met Aeron in the forest, who fell in love her on a hunt and immediately married her. The Kingdom believes her to be some long forgotten Lord's daughter. Age 40

Crown Prince Alexander

Valor and Honor in All Things[/color]

The Eldest son of Aeron and Emme, and the one most like Aeron, in image and personality. Great things are expected of the young Prince, who will be crowned King upon his marriage. While he may be a good and honorable king, he does not exactly fit the image of the knight of courtly love, so flirtatious and scandalously forbidden.

Prince Charlemagne

Fidelity, Strength, Power [/color]
Charlemagne probably never had an awkward day in his life. Unlike his older brother, he has always been beautiful, graceful, and witty. Everyone thinks that Charlemagne is the older son, and every once in a while the thought that he should be heir over Alex invades his mind. And unlike Alexander, he gets to participate in jousts and sword competitions. Charlemagne is fond of women, really fond of women, and charming them in his bed chambers happens to be his favorite past-time next to fighting. Age 21
Taken[/b]

Princess Catherine

Love Rises Above All [/color]
Catherine is the picture of a smart princess. She enjoys balls and jousts, and most importantly, poetry. She has high standards for men because of her reading, and believes the only man who is capable of holding her affections is her betrothed, Prince Eryk of Herrsland, who must be gallant and brave and perfect. She's fashionable, witty, and the envy of all the girls at court. Age 19


Prince Constantine

Valor and Honor in All Things[/color]

Sort of brash and eager to please. He loves an adventure and is quite enthusiastic and passionate in all things. You'd think that missing a gaming night or a hunt would be the end of the world. Age 18
(suggested playby: Bradley James)


Princess Gwynedd of Tavish

"A Known Enemy is Better than a Sly Friend"[/color]

Gwynedd is the elder daughter of King Odo and Queen Maeve. At her demand, she was trained in the sword, axe and bow. She is fierce, strong, and a warrior. Her father plans to send her to tempt one of the Alvernonian Princes, but she is certain she is only going as a body guard for her sweet, docile sister. Age 21
(Suggested playby: Lindsay Lohan)


Princess Igraine of Tavish

"Nothing is Stronger than Blood Ties and Tradition"[/color]

The youngest daughter of King Odo, pretty and delicate. She could not be more different than her sister if she could try. She is sweet and agreeable, and stays away from swords and fighting. Ever the lady, charming and innocent, she dreams of uniting her house with the House of Farseeker, and ultimately become Queen of Alvernon, saving her family from a potentially dangerous war. Age 18
(Suggested Playby: Sophie Turner)



Prince Rhodri of Tavish

Nothing is Stronger than Blood Ties and Tradition

The eldest son of King Odo and Queen Maeve of Tavish, and his charm and ability to work with all of the bickering clans of Tavish has earned him the special title of "Beloved Heir of Tavish." In a diplomatic move, he asked his father to send him to Alvernon for their Summer Solstice festival with his sisters and his fiance, the lovely Isolde MacFoley. It's Rhodri's hope that he can strike a friendship with Alexander, and perhaps match the young prince up with one of his sisters. Age 29

NOBILITY

Duke Kenn

"Everyman is the guardian of his own honor."

Kenn is the Duke of High Keep, a very old and noble house. It is the northern most castle/fortress in Alvernon where the mountains start. There are some reports of dragon sitings here, and occasionally a missing maiden or two. Kenn and his daughter Mirryn are mostly at the White Palace of Alvernon, at the court of Queen Emme. He is a widower, and there is some pressure for him to remarry a young woman and try for a son. For more information, please see Mirryn Delmoor's profile.

.

Elizabeth Samme

"I will make myself a queen."

Clever and cunning, she thinks herself smarter than Victoria, and probably is. Victoria isn't exactly dumb, but Elizabeth secretly thinks Victoria is more of a twit than baby Bella. Therefore, Elizabeth things of herself the most worthy of Prince Alexander's love. The mere mention of foreign princesses makes her sneer and ruins her day. Elizabeth isn't happy unless she's the center of attention in some way, and gets off on belittling the servants. She's power hungry, that's for sure. Age 20
(suggested playby: Lucy Hale)

.

Victoria Samme

"And he will be mine."

Apart of the trio of Samme Sisters, she is seen around the White Castle as part of the Queen's Ladies (her ladies-in-waiting). She and her sister Elizabeth each plan to snag one of the royal princes. Her hobbies include riding, plotting her engagement to Alexander or Charlemagne, and bossing 'silly little Bella' around. Age 18
(suggested playby: Troian Bellisario)



Isobel (Bella) Samme

"I will carve away my own future."

The "little" sister. She is constantly bossed around by her mother and two sisters, not even called by her real name, but "Bella" a name she considers "babyish." She is kind, and sweet, and often sings when she is alone. She is hardly ever seen outside of her sister's company. She dreams of some better life, but is certain it shall not come til her sisters are married off. Age 17
(suggested playby: Selena Gomez)

Isolde MacFoley

"To love is to be strong."

She is the betrothed of the Beloved Prince Rhodri, and is accompanying him and his sisters to Alvernon. She is quiet and reserved, sweet, and many sing of her beauty. She is a good speaker, and is fond of reading. She rides, and is a skilled hunter, though she does not plan to let the menfolk of Alvernon know that, she plans to show them women of Tavish are every bit as gentle, sweet, and polite as the women of Alvernon.

PEASANTRY

Harlow the Butcher

"Uh... I'm the butcher?"

He might be the brightest man in the village, but he is certainly no idiot. He's a no-nonsense kind of man who makes a decent living and is good at what he does. His wife and child succumbed to a plague many years ago. Age 39

Elizabeth the Baker

[/color]

"If you aren't paying for anything, get out of my kitchen!"[/center]
A fiery widow who is making it on her own. Her husband died over 10 years ago in the Crusades not long after their wedding, and she never remarried. She and Harlow are constantly arguing, then make up in the Pub and are the best of friends. The next day, arguing again. Age 34

Dannil the Candleman

[/color]

"Can I interest you in...-enter rip off item here-" [/center]

He has known Harlow for years, and is actually a cousin of his, that cousin who hangs around that you don't really like but put up with him cause he's family and you have to. He's a wheeler and a dealer, and not only does he sell candles, but he also comes across curious items he sells out of the back room. Just don't ask where they came from. His wife cannot hear, which is probably a good thing, Dannil talks enough for the both of them. They have 6 children. All of whom he happily escapes to the pub from, following Harlow and Elizabeth. Age 45

Sean Everton aka Wolf of the Wood

“Live with courage.”

He’s a bit wild and as such his friends call him the wolf. They’ve long said he’s been raised by wolves so it’s no wonder he is one. His manners don’t improve upon this one bit. No one knows where Sean came from but he and Henry ran into each other just after Henry entered the wood himself. Since then, they have stuck together. Age:30

[/i]

Johna Shield aka John of the Wood

“I always find my way, taking the long way around.”

- Pronounced John-ah, (former blacksmith) Known as Little John to the others cause she's younger and smaller. Ran to the safety of the woods when she could no longer afford to pay taxe on her workshop and home. Being a woman and a blacksmith no one would buy goods off of her. She has a large chip on her shoulder and prefers to be treated like a man. Age:25

[/i]

Benjamin Carver aka Ben of the Wood

“The truth will set you free, but first it will make you miserable”

(Former Carpenter Apprentice) Adopted son of a Carpenter who was unable to have children. He ran away from home as a child because he was being sentenced to have one of his hands chopped off, not only because he was a thief but because he’d lied about it. Actually he’s a pathological liar so the rest of them know anything he says is partially untrue although there is always that sliver of truth in everything he says too. Age:26

MAGIC FOLK

The Sorceress Queen Meidweyn

Who says girls are made of everything nice?

[/color]
Meidweyn (made-win) is the evil queen in Eshti' or the Dark Forest. Her castle is deep within, the exact place is unknown to man. They say other kingdoms were swallowed up by the Eshti', if not by her, than her mother before her, and there castles covered in vines sometimes found, but none of these belong to the witch Meidweyn. She delights in the suffering of others, and does most of her business in secrecy. Her name is known, but she has never been known to visit any of the current reigning courts.

Merlynn

The World is Not Safe

[/color]
Merlynn is the daughter of Meidweyn and the King Leone of Herrsland, though she does not know who her father is. Her mother has kept that a secret, and Merlynn's curiosity has focused on it, though she knows better than to push her mother. She knows some magic, though not even a 1oth of what her mother knows, but it's to be expected from her young age. She does not have the ambition of her mother, and wants to see the world instead of being locked up in some tower. She was born with hair as black as night and skin as white as snow. Her eyes are blue and lips often colored red. She suspects though, that her mother has some plans for her, since Meidweyn is suddenly coaching her in Alvernon history and region. Age 16 (almost 17)
