[b][color=82ca9d]Personality[/color][/b]: A born clown with an irritating, flippant attitude towards life and others, but one of his greatest traits is his courage, and perseverance. He is often pointed out as cocky and childish, yet also charming. He is loyal to his friends, and family. He is sometimes known to be aggressive, especially when people insulted or attacked those he cares for. He does have a selfish side as he would never risk his life to save anyone else unless the honor/reward outweighed the risk. He has quite the knack for noting minor details in any situations, and figuring out riddles, mysteries, and other such things. He gets carried away with wild theories, and stories. He absolutely does not care what people think of him, therefore his is totally fine with saying exactly what he thinks to anyone, but he also knows to hold his tongue to keep his position. [b][color=82ca9d]History[/color][/b]: Rupert was born at Manderuth Palace in Friesia. He was the eldest son of Prince [url=http://images6.fanpop.com/image/photos/35600000/Game-of-Thrones-game-of-thrones-35694620-332-500.jpg]Warren[/url] of Friesia, and his first wife the duchess [url=http://img3.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20120312014457/merlin1/images/thumb/2/2a/Ygraine04.jpg/500px-Ygraine04.jpg]Christa[/url] of Ebivini. His mother was the favorite cousin of the late King of Indra, so by blood Rupert is 8th in line for the throne. Sadly, his mother died two days after giving birth to his second youngest sister, Lady Annette Oldenburg, when Rupert was only nine years old. His father remarried when Rupert was ten, to a Lady [url=https://s-media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com/736x/7e/92/18/7e92188ef2ef890f5ddd82f4e621d1b0.jpg]Julia[/url]. A rather uptight, and stoic woman. After his father’s remarriage, his new stepmother went on to take control of the household. Ruperts parents had five children toghether but only he and his to youngest sisters, Lady [url=https://s-media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com/736x/37/d6/d2/37d6d20d87a7aa945408ea0a5a959697.jpg]Winifred[/url], and Lady [url=http://i.imgur.com/aipaoKa.png]Annette[/url], survived past infancy. His second wife, Julia, brought her own two children from her previous marriage with her, a sadistic son named [url=http://dudaamorim.com.br/wp-content/uploads/2013/04/tumblr_m70ajmlcqR1qa5f6co1_500.jpg]Trevor[/url], and a spoiled daughter named [url=http://i.imgur.com/pvIK3z5.png]Augusta[/url]. Rupert stepmother had him and his younger sisters sent to live in separate households, ‘for their education, and well-being.’ She would claim to their father, but really she just didn't want his first wife’s children in the picture, and she was not a fan of Indra people in general. So from the age of 10 to 16 Rupert was raised, by his godfather in Ebivini, where he met his younger noble/royal cousins. He and his cousin [url=https://s-media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com/736x/38/a4/42/38a442b835ecc78fc29f1548bd8aece8.jpg]Maverick[/url] a future marquis became best friends in their youth. He received military training, and undertook a grand tour of the five countries spending several months in Escova and Zeelu. He married Lady [url=http://i.imgur.com/olGRIFg.png]Marceline[/url] of Zeelu. Marceline was a beauty, but over-emotional and rather ignorant about the world, she also spoke hardly any of the Indra language. A loveless but beneficial marriage to his native country of Friesia, the match had been personally suggested to Rupert by the King of Friesia. Of course when his uncle [url=http://38.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_me45z2MO0l1rahllk.jpg]King Jerome[/url] of Friesia started his excursions and campaign in Manora, Rupert was right there, leaving his new wife pregnant in Indra. Over the next few years Marceline bore him two children, [url=https://s-media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com/736x/ea/98/b3/ea98b37af5b98e0890fc7f9fb14271ee.jpg]Alaric[/url] and [url=http://i.imgur.com/VmaB9YA.png]Rosalind[/url]. Rupert Returned to Friesia for a short stay, to see his Sister Winifred marry. Finding his wife pregnant, with what could not possibly be his child, as he had been gone for over a year. She was confined to the prison tower, where she was questions and tortured several times until she confessed to her secret love with one of her servants, and that the unborn child was his. She was also questioned, about her two other children's legitimacy, and if they were even Rupert's. And she swore that they were Rupert's children till the very end. The Servant was hanged, and Lady Marceline was proclaimed guilty of adultery, and treason. After Giving birth to a son, she was locked in the tower for three months, and then beheaded for her crimes. The baby boy was sent to a convent, and Rupert's two young children, he sent to live in Indra with their great Aunt Opaline. Rupert's father died from smallpox, while Rupert was in the south fighting alongside his good friend Maverick. With the news of his fathers passing he made his way back to Friesia again, at the age of 26 for the funeral, nd thus he gained his inheritance, becoming the third most wealthiest man in Friesia. He traveled to his estate in Ebivini after his fathers Death and stayed for the next two years, marrying his second wife, [url=https://s-media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com/736x/69/b2/a1/69b2a17b5ca076d368115ddaa10b20db.jpg]Maudde[/url] a wealthy heiress, and only child of Sir Macon the right hand of the king of Indra. Their loved blossomed and, she gave birth to a daughter they named [url=http://i.imgur.com/PuG0dYv.jpg]Lorelei[/url]. Sadly Maudde passed away only three months later from a infection of the lungs. With the death of his second wife, he saw no reason to stay any longer in Indra, while his King campaign in the southern country was still progressing. Leaving baby Lorelei in the care of his sister Winifred and her husband, he left for Manora. Now he his back in Ebivini, his Cousin Maverick the new hand of the king of Indra. Rupert has sent for his children to come back to live in his household. He is on the look out for a new wife, and finding a suitable husband for his youngest sister Annette.
