25 Years old

Celine was born to the king and queen of the Rotha Kingdom. She is the middle child of the legitimate children of the King and Queen. She has an older brother named Abbott, who is childish, ambitious, and selfish, and a younger sister named Marie, who is bubbly, warm, and arrogant. There is also a fourth half sibling named Cain, whom lives at the castle as well but with a lower status. She was originally raised to become a proper lady and previously believed that her fate would lie in marrying a Prince of another kingdom. However, as Celine grew older she developed a strong interest for military skill and strategy. Seeing her natural talents, her father allowed her to partake in some of the meetings with generals. As she grew and learned more, Celine pretty much managed over the military with very little help from her father. She earned a great deal of respect and favor from many. Her older brother, Abbott, is next in line for the throne but many generals and nobles that are invested in the Kingdom’s military believe he is unfit for the position and wish for Celine to take full control of the kingdom. Most, however, are sticklers for tradition and know that the throne is Abbott’s birth right and not Celine’s.

Celine is a balance between a proper court lady and a military expert. She carries herself with an air of elegance and command. She is reserved and cold making it hard for most people to get close to her, especially since she is very picky with who she places her trust in. Most of the time she buries emotions away and keeps her feelings hidden from the rest of the world. Celine rarely relaxes or jokes around, almost always being serious.

When it comes to fighting, she can be quite ruthless to her opponents. If she is dragged into a fight, Celine focuses on winning not sparing enemies or finding peace. However, this is mainly because she usually tries to avoids fights to begin with but finds that some fights can’t be avoided. She’s very calculating and strategic by nature. Celine never jumps into a situation without thinking it over. She despises surprises but has a knack for ‘rolling with the punches’ since she’s likely already thought of a similar scenario in her head.

Celine is an intimidating figure as she is not only a princess but also has a head of military with a less than inviting aura. Despite her rough edges, Celine is very caring and protective of the people and things she holds dear. She cares deeply for her kingdom and the people in it, feeling like she must be the one who protects them if her brother will be the one who leads them. Celine is humble and doesn’t put herself on any high up pedestal but is still aware of the power she has and what she is capable of.

Cain was born from an affair that happened between the King of Rotha and a servant. The two had practically known each other since childhood since the servant, Cain’s mother, came from a long like of loyal servants. They were fairly close despite being of very different social classes. They weren’t quite in love but the King did lust for the servant. His advances were accepted one night and nine months later, Cain was born. The King knew it was his son but the Queen threatened the safety of the servant and her child if he chose to completely accept Cain as a son. So Cain was raised in the castle like the son of a nobleman but kept at a distance from the royal family. Despite having luxuries, Cain still finds that many of the higher class see him no different than a peasant.

Cain grew up with the King’s pity, the Queen’s hatred, and his mother’s love. He wasn’t well liked and didn’t have many friends as he grew up. Noble children were told to avoid him and servant children often weren’t allowed to get very close to him as they were considered of a lower status than him. Despite these social restrictions, Cain managed to somehow remain kind and friendly. He tries his best to get along with most people but understands that not everyone is going to like him, something he learned at an early age.

Though he is kind, he is not naive. Cain is sharp and quite intelligent, though it might not be very obvious when you first meet him. He can usually tell when someone is trying to trick or lie to him. He’s also a bit of a bookworm and has read a great deal of novels, mostly being fiction as he finds non-fiction dull. Due to this, Cain is quite creative and imaginative, unlike the majority of his kingdom. Some say he has his head constantly in the clouds and believe him to be an air-head.

Cain isn’t as positive as one might think though. He’s actually quite pessimistic, usually finding that worse outcomes are more common than positive. He knows that life isn’t like his books and knows happy endings don’t exist.

He can also be quite sarcastic and snarky. Cain usually makes side comments when he finds himself irritated with others. He often does this and avoids getting into fights but if the other person is hot-headed enough, his comments could just as easily start one.

- Creativity (Usually providing answers that think outside the box... Almost never practical or logical)

- Animals (Extremely good with animals. They usually love him)

- Negotiating/Compromise (Very open to settling things peacefully. Able to give and take)

- Combat (0 Experience besides a few bar fights)

- Animals (May not think as clearly if an animal’s life is at risk)

- Navigating (Terrible sense of direction)
