Name: Duncan De Reimer (will be referred to as Alasdair De Reimer going into part 2)
Age: 28
Gender: Male
Position: Joint Second in command of the De Reimer family/Head adviser/High King of Formaroth
Personality: Those who know Duncan claim he has two different persona's: The one he shows to the world and his true personality. When in public Duncan acts in a very formal and polite manner winning over both nobles and common men alike. He is often viewed by others as being a charming man who's confidence always makes you think he is three steps ahead of you.
His true personality is far more calm and laidback, often making witty and sarcastic remarks to the person he is conversing with. However Duncan will only act this way with people he trusts and considering that he is slow to trust anyone, there are very few people who are familiar with his true personality.
Duncan is also very ambitious and eager to secure power for his family. To this end he is more than willing to manipulate others and scheme behind their back. In the end Duncan's primary motivation is the good of House De Reimer and as a result he is fiercely loyal to his family. Because of this Duncan is easily enraged when someone insults his family's name. Though his true loyalty is to his family, Duncan does generally care about the people under his rule and tries his best to help the people of Nyhem.
Though Duncan is just as able as his siblings to make brutal and even ruthless discussion to the benefit of his family, he is somewhat more remorsefully about it. Unlike his siblings Duncan will try to find other alternatives to immoral actions, though not at the expense of his families benefit. He is not unnecessarily cruel and takes no delight in the pain or suffering of the innocent. However when faced with a enemy whom he believes has wronged either him or house De Reimer Duncan can be extremely brutal and even somewhat sadistic in his treatment of them, though this has happened on very few occasions.
Before the event of the Remmonnet-Manshrew civil war Duncan was considered to be more kind and idealistic, however due to unknown events Duncan has grown colder over the years.
After the death of his close friend and brief lover Aurelia Vyncetta Duncan has become less trusting of people he does not know.
Weaknesses: Physically frail: Duncan is weaker in strength than most other people. May believe this to be linked with his sickly childhood and as a result he never got a chance to strengthen his muscles. Duncan's physical weakness can be easily exploited in a fight (or other situations).
Can be easily angered: Like his siblings Duncan can be easily angered when his family name is insulted. Though he can keep his temper well hidden it can still cause him to act rash.
Untrustworthy: Due to his reputation as the snake a fair number of people label Duncan as untrustworthy. His cunning and sly nature does not help him to get rid of this label.
Slow to trust: Ever since the Manshrew-Remonnet civil war Duncan has been slow to trust people.
Poor Military leader: Duncan skills at military leadership are laughable to say the least. When it comes to leading an army Duncan has very little idea about what commands to give.
Alcoholic: Though far from a heavy alcoholic, since he became king Duncan has certainly started to drink more than he used to. As of yet it has not started to effect his duties as King, but the quantity of which he drinks is increasing noticeably.
Appearance: Tall, shoulder length dark brown hair, skinny, pale skinned, Short well trimmed beard
Picture of De Reimer siblings:
Skills: Master negotiator, Master politician, Master manipulator, Expert Ruler, Adept strategist, Adept economist, Aprentice swordsman
Background: After the De Reimer family won the civil war, Duncan De Reimer served under King Helyot Remonnet within the King’s Council. He served as the master of law for two years before King Helyot Remonnet was killed during the war against House Manshrew. Once King John Remonnet was made king, Duncan managed to use his skills in cunning and manipulation to become the head advisor of the King. Once King Remonnet passed away Duncan, being the head advisor, became the default ruler of Formaroth. He currently resides in Nyhem. The common people have given the De Reimer siblings nick-names based of their reputation, Duncan's being 'The Snake'.
Duncan currently has a small force of around a 100 Cawanor soldiers guarding him at Nyhem. They are led by general Alenius. Alenius was originally a Nyhem street urchin whom was taken in by Duncan and trained as a military commander. She is extremely loyal to Duncan for saving her from a life of poverty.
