Physical Description
Identifying Characteristics
The way he wears his hair is always distinguishing in comparison to other world leaders. His hair is normally tied in a braid, except for one lock of hair which is tucked behind his ear and over his shoulder.
Along with this, his clothing is also distinguishable, with it being a mix of masculine and feminine clothing, creating a style that only he can seemingly pull off.
Apparel & Accessories
The clothing he wears is an "odd mix" of what is traditionally feminine and masculine. He wears a corset over a somewhat loose shirt, moderately tight pants, and sometimes wears a suit vest over it.
Specialized Equipment
He, along eith his sisters, each use their own magical weapon. He uses what's called the Twin Daggers of Jardos, which is a pair of daggers that can fuse together into a longer, two-handed weapon. He's also refered to as a skilled archer, having a custom bow that very few also know how to use.
Mental characteristics
Gender Identity
He think of gender as a form of presentation and expression of one’s self, which allows him to be fine with him not presenting in a manner that would be considered “masculine”, as expected by people of more elden beliefs. He thinks of himself as a man, but the way he presents himself is more along the lines of ambigu (am-big-gyou), or neutral.
Sexuality
He sees sexuality as normal no matter what it is, except when it comes to him. He doesn’t care that he’s gay and everyone who knows doesn’t see it as an issue, but he has a nagging feeling that there’s something wrong with him, even if plenty of people of all genders and sexualities get married in Argyrosa.
Education
He was educated as a royal, and he took an interest in law and linguistics, learning as much as he can about other languages, how they're related, and what connection they have. With the law, he has studied Argyran law closly, looking for caveats and loopholes that might need amending if they are severe enough. As part of normal Argyran regulations, he was taught both the Argyran and Solistek languages. He also wanted fo learn another languague, so he started learning Sylvan on the side, practicing with his teacher, a native Sylvan.
Mental Trauma
When he was four, his mother, Queen Agrina, passed after giving birth to his youngest sister, Lyra. He loved his mother dearly, and he never truly moved on, even if the memories he has of her are minimal. As he grew he decided to grow his hair out, a way to remember his mother. That was how he lived, him, his father, and his sisters. Until he was seventeen.
At the age of seventeen, he wasn’t even an adult according to Argyran law. But it was at a banquet between nations. A time of peace, socialization, and little argument. There would always be some argument. There was talking everywhere and it overwhelmed him.
Personality Characteristics
Likes & Dislikes
He likes his family and anything that relates to his kingdom or culture, whether it be learning more about his culture or helping his kingdom. He also has a few close friends which he cares for a lot. He will do almost anything to protect any of these. He does have some other "likes", which include ignoring his problems, archery, being with his family, being alone, succeeding at something he wanted to, and reading alone.
He dislikes a lot, as well. He hates people who try to harm his people, kingdom, and family. He hates fsiling at anything he wants to be good at. He dislikes people who doubt him because he isn't as vocal as some other world leaders or because he's the youngest current leader. He also dislikes dealing with his mental heath, being told he can't do something, reminders of his issues (especially from his family), and seeing those he cares about being hurt.
Social
Family Ties
He is a member of the Argyran royal family, currently the King of Argyrosa. His living family consists of his sisters, his aunt, the queen of Belgora, and his two cousins, the heirs of Belgora. His other family (the dead relatives) are his father, the former Argyran King Erastan, his mother, the former Argyran Queen Agrina, and other relatives who died before he could meet them.
Social Aptitude
He is called shy and introverted, making it difficult to speak during meetings with other kingdoms, but when speaking to the Argyran people, he speaks in a manner that conveys his sincerity and care towards his home and the people he is responsible for keeping out of ruin.
Mannerisms
When he was younger, he didn't enjoy being forced to talk, and that didn't change very much as he got older, but he learned that there were some situations where he had to talk, and accommodated his actions to fit the requirements he felt the need to fill. He understood that there were certain expectations of him as a king, and he wants to present himself in his most perfect form, even if he has no way of knowing what that is.
He never fully understood human emotion, but he understood that certain emotions garnered certain reaction from others, and he learned about the way he should act through observing. Observing what the person likes and dislikes (for the purpose of comfort if he is required to do so), and how others are reacting to them. With closer circles, such as his family or friends, these observations are learned more naturally and subconsciously, not requiring him to actively make note of their mannerisms.
Hobbies & Pets
He had always enjoyed learning new things, and if ever asked about spefic hobbies, he will most likely say archery, swordfighting, and reading. He tends to keep it vague because he doesn't want to stray away from the conversation topic, which mostly doesn't include the hobbies of the speakers.
Speech
When talking to his peers, elders, or people of similar status he speaks in a respectful, humble, and formal tone. Along with this, his voice remains monotonous, often making it seem as if he doesn’t care or is uninterested, even if the opposite is the case. When talking to a closer circle, he talks in a manner that is more friendly and approachable, but remains humble and shows more care for those who are closer to him.
In conversation, he likes to keep his phrases short, not wanting to take more space than he felt like he already was by simply listening to the other person or people.
