[quote=@Summers] Nice! I might add some other characters later, but I'm cool with just Hawke for right now. I also left his dislike for the princess as vague until we get one. Once we get one, hopefully her player and I could discuss it out. [/quote] I mean obviously this is dependent on the player of the princess, but a possible reason for the dislike relates to Hawke's usage of "black magic". The princess rules over the sorcerers and sorceresses, presumably the most powerful magic users in the land, and a desire to annex them under his control to gain access to those magics works as a basic initial reason for his interest. From there interpersonal issues between the two can be expanded upon by the players. Maybe he proposed in such a way that was more command than question and she took offense, maybe he gave her an ultimatum, I dunno. Just tossing a few ideas around.
