Full Name:
~ Zira Ela Lucius ~
Age: 20 years
Gender: Female
Role: Suitor
...
Appearance:
(credit belongs to Hera_ on Picrew)
Born the eldest daughter to a ruling family from Hatilly with an elder brother set to take over for their father, Zira has been frail since birth. Yet she radiates beauty and elegance, at her shorter stature of 5'1" in perfect posture and refinement. She often needs extra to retain her feminity, so she weighs 115 lbs, making her far slimmer than her age. She appears to be very much the dainty and delicate flower she was raised to be.
Her appearance seems to be crafted by the gods, with soft delicate pale skin as flawless as porcelain. Soft bright blue eyes like the clearest water, high cheekbones, and a defined jaw. Perfectly soft plump lips often with a layer of subtle gloss, matching the gentle rosiness that covers her cheeks. A beauty mark below her right eye stands out on her pale skin, her only flaw a scar cutting down her cheek to her jaw from a bandit attack that took her mother's life when she was 12. However, Zira hides dark lines that etch across her back, a reminder of the harshness of her step mother.
Ms. Lucius has a very unusual hair color, inherited from her grandmother through her mother. As white as fresh snow, her long silky hair has a slight wave to it. Often left down in gentle waves over her shoulders and down, coming to rest at the small of her back. She takes great care to keep it from looking unkempt, despite the small strands that hang around her face almost framing it. The white compliments her light skin, making the supple pinks and reds of her blush/lips and faint makeup show just that extra bit more.

~
Despite her relitively pampered upbringing Zira is a gentle soul, being soft-spoken and kind. There isn't a mean bone in her body. She would sooner help someone than watch them suffer, regardless of station and social status. Zira is often quiet and keeps to herself, minding her own space. Being thoughtful of other's comfort, often before her own. She is afraid of violence due to past trauma, and will hide or run should a fight break out. Also being likely to pass out at the sight of someone's death.
Zira is a big animal lover, be it big or small, she loves them all. Horses and hunting dogs are some of her more prominent preferences. She'd often be caught sitting in the stables reading or singing to one or several horses, her father saw no harm in it so he instead fostered her love of animals. She preferred to read her books while accompanied by a horse or her favorite k-9.
.
She is easily discouraged by comments about her lack of ability, often shutting down almost entirely. Despite her extensive education and intelligence, she doesn't like to argue with people, feeling overwhelmed by the action. Never having used her beauty or brains in self-interest, but rather to help or aid others. Provided she gets the nerve to speak up that is.
Zira is abhorred to do as her father commands, yet doesn't have the will to fight back. She dislikes the idea of being used as a tool or object sent to marry some man she doesn't know, yet she isn't oblivious to the implications. While she attends as her father instructed, Zira aims more to ensure the safety of her people and those she cares for. She has no interest in being her father's puppet for his own gain, and hopes that the royal heirs will understand her in that regard.
.
A special passion of hers however is singing, after her mother Zira doesn't do so very often unless she's alone. Those who have heard her voice would describe it as hauntingly beautiful, etherial like that of a siren.
This is paried with her love of playing the piano, which she'll willingly do around others. Although it might take a little convincing, with skilled hands she plays beautifully.

Strengths:
Intellectual;_ Zira possesses a brilliant mind with a stagering potental, her ability to analyze and plan makes her a valuable asset or a formidable adversary.
Loyalty;_ Along with her trust comes loyalty, while she isn't loyal to everyone she trusts. But those she is loyal to, it is to a fault. Even to her own detriment.
Patience;_ schooled to not be hasty Zira is a very patient and forgiving person, if anything she'd rather take her time with most things regardless.
Weaknesses:
Sensitive;_ Being an emotional person she is often vulnerable to emotional manipulation. Despite her patience Zira often struggling against choosing between her feelings and her mind, even taking small things to heart.
Slow to Trust;_ Though she might give everyone a certain level of trust, her complete trust is something that is difficult to earn. But once it's earned, she doesn't question and will trust completly.
Susceptible to Over-Exertion;_ While she might be healthy, Zira has a weaker constitution, specially in hotter climates. This tends to lead to a high risk of over exerting herself during the warmer months.
Affiliations:
Crush: Open
Significant Other: TBD
Elder Brother[Marcus]; her relationship with her brother is somewhat strained, being exempt from their father's cruelty Zira envies that he got a loving father. While she knows it isn't his fault, Marc still sin't someone she feels expescially close with. She cares about him to an extent, but is their father's son and often acts much too like him for her likely.
Father[Aldius]; to put it simply her relationship with her father is strained at best. The man regularly haunts her nightmares after everything he's done, having used regular beatings to instill his teachings. Zira dislikes him fiercly, having been forced to bear the scars from his dislike for her softness. Her mother had been the only relief she got, but when they lost her the beatings got worse. He is by far Zira's least favorite person.
Cousin[Carter]; Zira only knows her cousin from when they were younger, until he left for knight training and enlisted into the palace guard. She's proud of him, seeing Carter as sort of the brother she never had. He was one of the few that would look out for her and often stood up to her father when he got aggressive, even if that earned him more than a few beatings of his own. She's looking forward to being able to see him again after all these years.
Varik; a man she remembers from her childhood, after having met him a few times when visiting her cousin at his training. She saw him a trustworthy enough that when Carter left she would sit in silence with him when she hid away from her father. Zira knows he went off to tounaments, but is unaware of him having joined the royal guard.

Full Name:
~ Carter X. Tulatan ~
Age: 24
Gender: Male
Role: Royal Guard
Appearance:
(image credit belong to @mogagit on Picrew)
Carter is the spitting image of his father, with short fluffy chocolate-colored hair that rests just shy of his shoulders at full length. Dark golden eyes with a coldness that melts when looking at those he cares for. His sharper facial features lend well to the rugged appearance against the youthfulness of his age.
With broad shoulders and a sturdy build, Carter's strength is easy to see in his well-muscled frame. Standing 6'7" and 260 lbs. the man is a veritable giant. Yet he carries himself with an air of elegance and grace, coming from a noble heritage has its perks for this knight. His voice is not quite as deep as some would expect, yet his tone is pleasant to the ear without sounding too young.
Carter is rarely seen without his sword, and more often than not in his armor. When he is it is often simple clothes in darker colors. He bears a number of scars each with their own story, the obvious ones being a cut over his brow and at the corner of his chin. Others are scattered over his back and arms, with one larger jagged one that crosses his chest.
Voice Claim: Henry Cavill (particularly from his role as Geralt)
Personality:
Hard Working || Helpful || Good Listener || Stoic || Observant || Sturdy || Reliable || Routined || Authoritative || Can be flirty || Courteous || Polite || Open Minded || Resolute || Caring //Civil until you cross a line, then ruthless & cold
A well-trained noble knight through and through, Carter is well-mannered and practical. Always doing his utmost to protect and look out for others. He likes to be the person others can depend on, whether just for a shoulder to lean on or as a protector. Yet he understands that sometimes everyone needs a break from the seriousness, cracking light-hearted jokes and the occasional flirt with pretty ladies. He knows how to be playful when it's called for, and when to be dead serious in crisis. He is a tempered blade, skilled at whatever he sets his mind to do.
However, Carter has a heart of gold. He was the type to lend food to the starving or his cloak to the cold. He knows there is only so much he can do, but will do anything he can to help when needed. Regardless of the task and of difficulty, Carter throws himself headlong into things. Sure he plans ahead, yet he commits himself fully to that plan.
Among his fellow knights, Carter is strict and a stikler for the rules/code of being a knight. The man has a hard time keeping quiet when he sees someone stepping out of line or doing something "stupid". Carter can sometimes be blinded by his sense of rightousness, often leading him to form grudges or being minipulated into prosecuting the wrong person.
Strengths:
Patience;_ Carter is probably one of the most patience people you'll meet, always willing to stay calm until the situation has been resolved.
Endurance;_ The man is vertually inexhuastable, able to march for miles without rest, even able to withstand heavier weights to support others.
Unforgiving;_ Not one to forgive and forget, Carter can hold one heck of a grudge. Once someone wrongs him in any way, Carter is sure to remember that blunder and will never trust that individual ever again.
Weaknesses:
Intellectual;_ Carter isn't exactly the smartest person, while he isn't stupid by any measure, he does tend to miss small things that are clearverly hidden behind sweet words and closed doors.
Loyalty;_ While most would consider this a strength it isn't ecactly that way for Carter, while it can be sometimes. But being loyal to a fault comes at a price, being vulnerable to missinformation and being caught up in someone else's devious plot.
Stubborn;_ the term 'stubborn as a mule' is often a way used to characterize Carter, once his mind is set the man is vertually impossible to move. While he can be convinced with ample proof and time, Carter is hardpressed to change his mind on many things.
Affiliations:
Father; officaly his father is a noble from House Tula, a man he respects and values in his older age. Unoffically his biological father is actually The brother of the ruler of Hatilly, a man he has little knowlege of other than his affair with Carter's mother is what produced him.
Mother: a woman he respects to an extent, while she is his mother and he loves her, Carter finds it hard to completely have faith in her after the discovery that he was the product of an affair, something he abhors.
Sister: he is aware of his younger sister, she was but a child when he enlisted in training to be a knight. Carter isn't sure what became of her, last her'd heard she'd been sent off somewhere for schooling and had yet to return home. They aren't close, but he would feel obligated to help her if she came asking.
Cousin[Zira]; his dear cousin is someone he is fiercly protective of, almost akin to a sister, having been witness to the harsh treatment from her father Carter would often stand up for her. He knows she isn't a fighter and deserves to be protected, he felt bad having to leave her alone when he left for training, and it tore him up inside when he learned of her mother's passing. Carter had almost risked suffering severe punishment for abandoning his training, having been very tempted to rush back home and wisk Zira away from harm. (He is unaware of her arrival to the palace).
Varik; a man he trained with in his youth and has a decent amount of respect for his skills, perhaps even go so far as to say he trusts him. Carter doesn't always totally agree with him, but Varik is quite possibly the only person he'd trust with his cousin's safety as the only person he deems capable enough. After spending the last few years in the royal guard together he acknowleges his skill and trusts his judegment, likely the one person he is okay with working in a team with as they don't often butt heads.
