To the northeast resides two kingdoms separated by a large river. The southeastern kingdom is Caesonia, a beautiful country full of diverse, yet easily traversable land. The temperature is rather pleasant through the spring and summer months, with soft spring showers that cause summer to be green and beautiful. Fall and winter are on the colder side with some snowfall, but it’s never terribly unbearable.
The capital of Caesonia is a large city named Sorian which is located at the end of a long Fjord. Within Sorian resides King and Queen Danrose, the richest rulers of the three kingdoms. They are also considered to be the most competitive and are most concerned about their appearance to the other kingdoms. It’s for this reason that they organized a gathering of courts every year during the spring and summer months. They invite all of the nobility of their land along with the nobility of their sister kingdom, Varian.
King Edin Danrose is man raised to want to be the best of the best. Nothing short of perfection. This is what he expected of the children as well. He enjoys having not only his but the names of his children being known to all. His personality could be summed up as arrogant and selfish. He views the impoverished as the country’s laziest and is known to be a believer in negative reinforcement and harsh punishment.
He is more than willing to make moves no one else will as long as the wrongs he commits are buried under the bed. Additionally, Edin enjoys the pleasures of life too much, outwardly having mistresses.
Alibeth, despite the regal and charismatic presence she brings to the public, is rather quiet and submissive. She submits to her husband’s desires and lets him steer the ship. Politically, she will try diplomatic measures before violent ones. This goes for how she viewed the children; she will attempt to convince them to agree before deciding on the punishment, as opposed to her husband. She can be rather kind and motherly, sometimes smothering her offspring with overprotectiveness. She is a rather nervous woman who seems to struggle with secrets on her shoulders.
All of the Kingdom knows Duke Lorenzo of Veirmont lost his wife the year prior. He has laid rather low for some time but whispers say he has started to show his face again. Many credit his recovery to the kindness of the Count. The two seemed to have grown close. Emina had been a beautiful, dark-haired duchess who had fallen for Lorenzo long ago despite his middle-class status. Lorenzo had been a fish out of water in the new title of nobility, but it was a river he had long swam in since birth. Lorenzo was never quite cut out for nobility. After having their family publicly shamed by the King himself at a ball, Emina was said to take her life.
Count Calbert, Earl of Montauppe in Caesonia, is a smooth talker. He seems to be able to charm people with ease without them realizing he is collecting information for ammo. Manipulative, cunning, and scheming, this man views life as a game. Always maintaining a cool and collected demeanor, he is highly regarded and respected. People say he is immensely polite and well-mannered. When seen with his wife and daughter, he is loving and handles them like delicate glass. Behind closed doors, he continues this love and care, treating his wife like his treasure. This behavior isn’t always the same towards those he does not regard highly of. Secretly, he gets a rise out of being in control and utilizing the canards he receives to further his goal.
Kind and well-regarded, the soft-spoken Countess Liliane is beloved. She is angelic in her presence, always seeming to say what one wants to hear. Her opinions and beliefs are a mystery to all as she keeps to herself, but she may know more than she lets on.
However, she is a rather fragile woman, always in ill health. Her one and only pregnancy almost killed her.
