Name: ”Darwin Munin”/“Diamond Eyes”
Age: 20
Gender: Male (he/him)
Sexuality: Homosexual
Rank: Royal Manservant (Wellknown Slerosean Thief)
Desired Rank: The Kingdoms’ Greatest Thief
Kingdom: Slerosea + Aibruvia (is often in either place most of the time)
Thoughts On The Kingdom Of Ai6ruvia: It’s a love-hate relationship really. For one, it has better education and is more accepting than the Kingdom of Slerosea, but Diamond can’t live there because of the high taxes. Diamond despises the King especially, yet he can get quite the pretty penny by stealing from those of nobility and entrusted with a great deal of money by the King. He still has a lot of friends in the kingdom, but it’s not enough in his mind.
Appearance: Standing at six feet, Diamond is under the average height due to malnutrition as a child. He has a blocky, square shape to him with lean muscles that strengthen his chest, arms, and legs. With sunburned skin that is covered in dirt and mud, the light freckles that dot his back, shoulders, and face, blend in almost perfectly with his dark honey skin. His left hand is surprisingly big and slightly rough, but his right hand had been cut off for his crimes, leaving only a nub behind. Luckily, he is left-handed, but it doesn’t make it any easier to lose a hand.
Diamond has a sharp jawline and, coincidentally, a diamond shaped head. With faint freckles painting his face on his cheeks, nose, and ears, they appear more prevalent when he is flustered or embarrassed and his face grows a bright red. He has a crooked, sly grin that reflects his dimples. When he laughs or talks, the chip in his front tooth can be seen as well as the rest of his slightly yellowed teeth. He has big ears that are visible through his puffy hair. Speaking of his hair, the mass of uncombed, curly, messy hair on his head is a dark oak wood color that sometimes hangs in his face if he doesn’t pull it back with a tiny black ribbon. It is constantly filled with dried dirt, but he tries to wash it all off in streams whenever he can. Now, the two most noticeable parts of his face include a long scar along his face from a knife slash and his icy blue eyes that sparkle like diamonds. Actually, Diamond’s eyes being the color they were gave him the idea for the name. That and how he has an eye for diamonds.
Most of the clothes he owns— at least the ones that are not his servant uniforms— look to be stolen, not because he’s a thief but because they actually look nice despite the tears and mud. Wearing a black shirt with puffy sleeves, the sleeves cover bandages that start at his elbow and go down to his gloves. When he doesn’t want people to see that he is a convicted thief, he’ll fill his right hand glove with cotton and tie it to the nub on his arm with the bandages to make the illusion of a hand. He’ll wear extremely dark green pants that are large and baggy and seem to absorb any dirt he may pick up. He wears black boots that go up past his ankles and are stuffed with sheep wool. Over top his clothes, he tends to wear a navy blue poncho tied together with a pale blue ribbon. A small hood that shrouds his face is attached with careful and symmetrical stitching patterns along the rim that shows the signs of Lixa’s fine craftsmanship. A pale leather satchel of equipment climbing out of it with rabbit hair adorning the exterior weighs him down slightly as the sash with a brass buckle goes across his chest. Items like lock picks, dust bombs, candles, a bottle of ale, hot Laetis spice pouches, half-eaten stale bread, a small wooden lute with five strings, and three of his knives are stored inside. Diamond carries two other knives as well: one hidden inside his boot and the other in a small pocket inside his pants. Each knife has its own purpose as well. The baselard in his satchel, the first of his knives, is old and rusting, practically more useless than it was originally since baselards are weak and mainly for show. There is also the carving knife he owns, but that’s for wood, not self defense. The other knife he has tucked away in his satchel is a poniard: a knife for stabbing motions that he nabbed off of a guard. The broken sheep shear that he keeps as a blade seems ancient but still glimmers in the light. It might not be made for slashing but it works well as a makeshift knife. The knife he keeps in his boot, an anelace, is not only his favorite, but the best knife he owns. When he is not wearing his iconic blue poncho and other getup, he is forced to wear his tragically bland uniform: white button up shirt with puffy long sleeves as well as tights black pants and shoes. He will wear black gloves, generally not something most other servants wear, and stuffs one glove with straw to make up for his right hand— or lack thereof. It does not look like a normal human hand up close, but from afar it definitely passes as a normal hand. Diamond still tends to keep his hair tied back with his blue ribbon but sometimes he’ll leave it down just to look more fancy in his job.
Personality: Diamond is a bit of a cocky bastard but is also charismatic and caring. While he can be a bit bold and cautious with who he considers a friend, he is also uncareful and sometimes cynical of the world around him.
Diamond’s overconfidence stems from the need to make a show of everything. If he gains people’s attention and gives them someone to look up to, he gives them hope, smiles, and something to look forward to. Plus, his cockiness only grows with each successful raid. Of course, that all fades away in an instant when he is giving some of the goods he owns to others. He’ll pay for their food, donate to others, and repay any life debts he may own to someone. He’ll often be found doing just about anything to make others happy and for that reason and his friendly nature, he has made close friends with people in all corners of Tetra. Diamond’s charisma and charm also may turn things into being more than friendly as he can be a bit of a flirt and a tease, gaining some extra charm in knowing how to please anyone from his experience working at a brothel as a kid. These two sides of him, his thieving and his giving personas, might appear to be different sides of a coin, but they are both one in the same. His more theatrical and eccentric characteristics and more soft and caring merge together to form someone who loves to piss off and annoy the prideful rich but is willing to do anything to make the poor and less fortunate smile.
While Diamond tends to be lazy and lax, Diamond may or may not have a bit of a quick temper when it comes to the topic of commoners, thieves, as well as the knights and lords. Diamond is extremely touchy about all of those topics. Recklessly throwing himself into any scenario and thinking more with his heart than his head can put one at a disadvantage especially. Despite his reckless tendencies and short temper on certain topics, he is often not the first to throw a punch mainly because he tends to be the one to push his enemy into striking first with his unending taunting and cruel remarks. Diamond’s short temper is also paired with his unrelenting stubbornness. Once he has his mind set on something, he will put his foot down and never let a single soul push his opinion one way or the other. This also helps to lead him into more arguments and disagreements. Though, because of his friendly nature, he tends to resolve arguments later or pull people into his way of thinking. When he isn’t getting flustered over certain situations, he is far too lazy, lounging around without a care in the world despite present dangers. In all, despite Diamond’s lax nature, he tends to be triggered by certain topics and his recklessness tends to show through.
Diamond might have his flaws, a ton of them really, but he still strives to do good, even if it means stealing entire homes for those he cares about. He doesn’t like depending on his friends though. Even those he’s known for a long amount of time, he will still be hesitant to ask anything of them. Diamond does want to do good, but he is also struggling at even doing okay.

Backstory: Here’s the brief of it: born in Aibruvia, Diamond was chucked to the streets as just a little boy and forced to fend for himself. He did his best to survive by stealing, entirely oblivious to the fact that there was a prominent and well loved orphanage a few cities over where he could have had a much better life. A knight caught him stealing apples from a fruit seller and whether she was corrupt with malice or whether the harm she caused was purely accidental, Diamond’s hand was cut clean off. Terrified, the boy ran and ran and ran, over the frozen fjord, through frosted forests, and all the way to the cold Kingdom of Slerosea. Cold, bleeding, and scared, a friendly sheep farmer took him in and Diamond has lived there happily ever since.

Name: Phoebe “Little Knight” Scutum Windsor
Age: 8
Gender: Female
Sexuality: Undecided
Rank: Fourth Princess
Desired Rank: Ruler of the World
Kingdom: Aibruvia
Thoughts On The Kingdom Of Aibruvia: She loves it! Why would she not? Everyone loves her and she loves everyone so this must mean that everyone loves Aibruvia, right?
Appearance: Phoebe looks terribly like her father, especially after the “Scissors Incident” where she attempted to cut her own hair. She is short, is square, and has olive skin tone with the height of just a little under her sister at 4 ft 1. Because of her short height, she will often ask— or demand— for others to lift her up or frustratedly run away before returning with manic laughter and a stool hoisted above her head. Speaking of being able to lift stools above her head, Phoebe does appear to have some muscle which is quite surprising to some, but for those who know her best, with all the running, jumping, climbing, and stabbing that she does, it is to be expected of the tiny knight. Phoebe, of course, as the rambunctious knight she is, has a few scars littered on her little body. One scar on her rosy knees she earned while supposedly defending the Kingdom from a big rock monster, another on her palm when, supposedly, a talking assassin sword came to life to attack her, and one more on the back of her head when she had slipped while playing in the stream and hit her head on a rock that could have killed her if she had not been found sooner.
Phoebe’s tiny face is round and often covered in mud or scratches, bandages or dirt while her eyes are remarkably bright blue, so blue, in fact, that she used to think that someone spilled paint in her eyes when she was younger which was why she did not have “really, really pretty eyes” like her siblings; however, she knows better now and likes to boast that she has “dragon scale eyes.” Her hair, while having a bit of red coloration in it, is mostly dark like her father’s and, after the “Scissors Incident,” is cut short with shorter sides and a longer top. Due to lack of gel, Phoebe is unable to slick her hair back like her father so instead her fluffy hair tends to spike up as if it is constantly statically charged.
This little knight wears only what any good knight would wear. While she is occasionally forced to wear puffy princess dresses— or “bleh clothes” as she would call it— Little Knight Phoebe will never be far from her wooden sword, forged with dragon scales and sharpened with druid magic, and her red cape, sewn with the utmost care and destroyed with the utmost carelessness. The blood red cape used to drag along the ground like a long flowing dress with each strand perfectly together with an intricate fashion, but now the color has drained and the cape is much shorter from tear and what appears to be burn marks from her time in a brief pyromaniac phase (which she quickly got out of after someonenearly burned the curtains in her room). When she has the freedom to pick her own clothes, everyone is often appalled by her fashion sense with bright pink tops and yellow polka dotted pants. This is often why she instead lets her maid pick out clothes for her like a simple green dress or a blue top and baggy pants; although the knight, while around the castle that is, refuses to listen to her maid on the topic of shoes. She will always wear her tiny black boots for traveling outside but will choose to go barefoot around the palace, her little feet making a “platplatplatplat” sound as she runs rampant through the echoing halls of the castle.
Personality: With unstoppable stubbornness and unwavering determination, Phoebe is not the girl to take no for an answer and treats it more like a question. “No, it’s not safe to do that,” often turns into, “Is it safe to do that?” and to which the answer is always, “yes,” in her optimistic and juvenile mind. She has this aura of immeasurable confidence that mirrors her father yet she has no doubt in her mind that this can lead to trouble such as the time she tried to see if she could survive jumping from her window if she did a superhero landing. She, luckily, did survive, but not without quite a few bumps, bruises, and scratches. This chaotic ball of energy is to be kept on a tight leash, not because she misbehaves for she is often very good at listening to instructions, but because she often thinks of something to do and does it without hesitation. It is because people often attempt to limit her “adventurous, knightly spirit” that she tries to sneak off and avoid being seen by her guard and maiden in order to experience life to the fullest by eating moss, jumping off tall things, and practicing using her sword on trees.
A big piece of her personality is her creative mind, able to fabricate wonderful stories that can often relate to knights and dragons, beasts and fiends. Because of her creative mind, she acts like a sponge to anything others say from stories to random details. This makes her easily tempted and bribed into silence by someone offering to tell her a story. She is still very stubborn despite this and if someone is offering to tell her a story while she is trying to do something she really wants to do, then she will often ignore their request. This can be problematic especially when attempting to convince the little knight that maybe climbing the tallest trees or rolling down hills is not safe.
Phoebe may be very determined and imaginative, but she is also protective and honest to those she cares about. While she will sometimes lie to her father, maid, or guard in order to sneak off somewhere, she is always truthful to her sister and in almost every other situation. She likes to be honest because the one thing she remembers of her mom is getting scolded for lying. When Phoebe is not being overly blunt, she can often be seen attempting to protect others from harm, always making sure they are safe. While most may call Phoebe clingy for literally clinging onto her guard or maid, Phoebe often does this as a means to bring them away from danger. Even though her guard is perfectly capable of taking care of themself, she can often be seen entering rooms first to check if they are clear for them. Phoebe’s protectiveness reaches a spike whenever Sybil is involved, going out of her way to ensure her sister is happy and safe before anything else.

Affiliations: TBD
Name: Rainier Atwater
Age: 23
Gender: Male
Sexuality: Pansexaul
Rank: Prince of Wrales
Desired Rank: King of Aibruvia
Kingdom: Wrales
Thoughts On The Kingdom Of Aibruvia: Rainier loves the kingdom from what little he has seen. The spectacular sights, stunning shores, and amazing hospitality. With such a strong military presence and unending opportunity, Rainier thinks it is near perfect. Except for the leadership that is.
Appearance: Standing at roughly six foot two, much taller than his twin sister, Rainier looks often very intimidating and very masculine when he does not have a warm smile on his features. With wide shoulders and smaller hips, he is exactly the form that many elite swimmers take on with well defined muscles along his whole body. His skin is a lighter shade of espresso and is often warm and smooth to the touch, somehow never being cold nor rough even after having spent time in freezing temperatures or using a sword to the point where most peoples’ skin would be filled with blisters. Rainier only has a few, faint scars on his body, but the only one that is truly present without someone being forced to squint and analyze him is the small one on his knee he earned from quite the embarrassing story. Rainier does also have a few tattoos on his body although they are mostly small. On the left side of his neck, a small black and white rose blooms but is no bigger than the circle one can make with their pinkie and thumb. Printed on his wrist is the moon’s phases and on his heels is a small heart. Although, he does have a much more elaborate tattoo on his upper back. The black and white tattoo is of a crescent moon with jewels dripping and hanging down from it as clouds hover under it and cover the moon ever so slightly. Stars that look like the jewels surround the moon in a hypnotizing circle while the clouds rain down even more of these dark, tear-shaped gems.
Unlike his sister, Rainier tends to keep his hair short and well kept despite his hair’s attempts to do otherwise. His black hair (that he always argues is just a really dark brown) is shaved down at the sides with his hair curling and framing one side of his face and the other, despite his best efforts to keep the right side of his hair tucked behind his ear, will often fall forward and in his face if he tries to read. Although his hair is mostly plain black, he does have a few lighter highlights as well as the tips of his hair being a much lighter brown. He has narrow eyes that are a soft hazel color with green swirls and a warm tone with understanding and patience in them. Because of the dark eyeshadow and dark green eyeliner, most people find him rather intimidating if he ever gets lost in thought, but his eyes always seem to sparkle when he is smiling and instantly becomes much more approachable. He has no freckles to speak of, but he does have quite a few beauty marks. One dark circle under his left eye, one behind his right ear, one on the back of his neck, and several on his hands are often the only ones visible on the skin he does reveal, but there are quite a few in other places as well. He has a small polite smile, but when he laughs his whole face seems to light up and glow, his laughter instantly beckons for others to laugh with him.
Rainier’s clothes are often elaborate and intricate unless he is doing a much less formal activity such as fencing, archery, or simply going on long walks. He’ll wear black suits with dark green vests underneath and a green folded napkin in his chest pocket. He generally hates to wear these clothes as he finds them restricting especially when he wears a tie. Despite how much he hates them, he wears them most often because that’s just what he has been taught to do; however, he will always express himself by wearing silver jewelry to balance out his lack of true choice in clothing. He’ll were long chain necklaces when he isn’t forced to wear a tie, chain rings and thick bracelets when he isn’t forced to wear black gloves, and will always wear silver stud earrings, one that is just a simple stud and the other that is a downward facing dagger, and chain earrings which connect his ear lobe to the sides of his ears and that dangle a star on his right ear and a crescent on his left.
Personality: Rainier is quiet and reserved for the most part, seemingly sticking to himself unless someone begins conversation with him. Contrary to how he appears, he is rather chatty once he is engaged in a conversation. Despite his brooding nature and dark clothes, he acts rather happy and bubbly whenever anyone speaks with him. Rainier will tend to be a bit awkward with his words at first but will always be polite and seemingly genuine. Rainier seems to always be overly optimistic and see the positive side of any situation. However, he recognizes the negatives and the faults of a bad scenario despite his focus on the positive and will always do his best to fix it. For example, if a friend loses their wallet, Rainier will say that this gives them a good opportunity to not only buy a new, better wallet but hopefully someone deserving of the money in the wallet will find it. In the future, he will make sure his friend either keeps their wallet in a purse or on a strap around their wrist. Despite his uptight and gloomy looks, Rainier is often laid back and cheerful, teasing his friends and sister and often being very relaxed and clear headed even when in stressful situations. Although he might be more lax than most royal people his age, he still likes activity. When trying to get to know a new person, he’ll suggest a swim, to train with them, or just to take a stroll or hike along the shoreside or to a new location. While Rainier has a lot of positive qualities, he does have quite a few negative aspects to him. He often is very controlling of others and wanting order as he finds disorder to be problematic and to be dangerous at times. He also can be over protective of others and, despite his genuine love and care for the individual, he can use his manipulation tactics to gain “control” over them and to instruct them to do things according to his “plan.” Although this sounds cruel, Rainier does it with their best intentions at heart with the genuine belief that he can protect and aid them better this way. He doesn’t like to do it and it does make him feel guilty, but if it helps to aid whatever plan he has made in his mind at that time, he generally sees it as worth the pain and guilt.
