Appearance:

---

Old with dark brown greying hair and dark eyes, despite his age Victor is an imposing man with a clear air of authority when he both speaks and walks. An averagely tall man standing at the height of six feet, and a physique honed by the military drills and expeditions he takes part in; the King is healthy and always fit for battle. It is often said that the king rarely smiles, and it's not far from the truth. His expression is often devoid of emotion and his voice equally lacking in cadence,  and the smile that he so rarely allows himself to show is saved for the privilege of his family.

A royal of the highest decree, Victor is often found either adorned in his armour or his various wardrobe of well made silks with an accompaniment of several royal jewels. However some of the more common colours he wears are golds, reds, blacks, whites and blues. As a proud man Victor does not attempt to hide the importance of his status and expects a high level of respect.

Personality:

---

"Power is the privilege of those who take the opportunity to grab it." An opportunist through and through, Victor is a meticulous man with a very calculated way of approaching both political and social situations with the people around him. On the surface a respectful individual with a strong sense of moral conduct, Victor hides his boiling desire to conquer the realm with a sharp tongue and wit that only lowers in the company of the people who he loves, his family. Often too busy with paperwork and potential plans to attend to them, Victor struggles with the desires and tribulations of his wife and children. And despite his best efforts to support their every want or need, the King has been unable to give the time to truly understand them and therefore often manipulates them without realising.

[break]



Manipulative and driven by the seductive force of power the world has to hold, he will stop at nothing to achieve his goals. He is adamant that his legacy will be the greatest rise the world has ever known, he seeks to further his empire and prove the superiority of humanity. It is his destiny to cleanse the world and build a better paradise for his people, even if he has to destroy it.

History:

---

Not the original heir to the throne, it was only through the death of his elder brother that Victor obtained the throne. Through an unfortunate series of circumstances, a large herd of bulls came charging at them and by saving Victor, his broth Michael was run over and trampled into the ground. Alas, the royal family was in disarray over their star boy whose strength and kindness were admired in comparison to Victor's cunning. Power over Michael was something Victor had always sought out for, and although he didn't want his brother dead he was also not as distraught by his passing. Now the next heir, it was Victor who became groomed to become king. Time and time again his parents had tried to instil the same sentimental ideals in regard making decisions, but Victor's mind was far more logical.

Utilizing his mind, Victor went through the military and received special training to become an officer among the ranks. Those who did not respect the prince were quick to learn their place until they were settled and become a powerful unit within the armed forces. Alongside his men he studied for years in the subjects of tactical warfare, survival, weapon training and even the importance of moral, delegating and good leadership. And found that by pretending he cared meant the men fought harder and thus began the beginning of his facade.

Victor was married when he was still a prince, at the age of twenty, to his wife; whom he has cherished loved and adored since the first day that he met her, despite their differences. It wasn't until he was thirty that an illness took his father and he finally became King. Over the years Victor and his wife had three children. Two boys and a girl whom together they have raised to carry on the legacy of their family. For the last twenty nine years the king has reigned with a careful eye, watchful of his battle plans and the neighbouring enemies that sought to attack him. To this day he remains vigilant and unforgiving for the damage that was done to his people, his family, his friends and longs for the day to drag the other races into the dirt.

Miscellaneous:

---

Established Relationships:

[break]

[break]

Rhiannon Dufour: His only daughter, Rhianon is both a problem and treasure to him. Much like her mother, Victor doesn't know how to approach Rhiannon and their conversations often end up in heated discussion or he dismisses her. Disappointed in her behaviour for what she has become, Victor does very little in the way of being overly emotive with her. While he wishes the best for his little girl and will give her whatever she wants, as a future leader of the people she is expected to take certain duties on board that in his eyes she neglects.

[break]

[break]

The Queen: The King doesn't truly understand his wife and not through lack of trying. The Queen is everything that he is not and therefore he cannot begin to fathom what might be going on in her beautiful head. However, he does adore her and takes the time to heed her counsel in the time they get to spend together. What time Victor does get away from his work, he dedicates to her or his first son.

[break]

[break]

The Royal Heir: As the King it is Victor's responsibility to lead as an example and show his son how to run the Kingdom when he is to one day rule over the realms of humanity. Victor takes what time he can to spend time with his son, to teach him the tactics of warfare and the ins and outs of politics. While Victor perceives his son to be naive, he is willing to forgive this fact as the boy is young and has a lot to learn.

[break]

[break]

The Young Prince: With little time Victor scarcely has the opportunity to interact with his son for long periods of time, but as probably one of the more desiring of his sons Victor sees the boy from time to time anyway to negotiate whether or not he can have the thing he is asking for. Where his mother may initially say no, Victor is often too preoccupied to care about the decision and lets him have whatever he wants, just like he would extend to his sister if she chose to behave. Victor takes pride in the young prince and will even occasionally take the boy on a trip or a family holiday.

[break]

Weapon Training: Favoured: Two Long Swords. Secondary: Sword and Shield. Third: Spear.

[break]Weapon(s): Preferred: Two especially crafted long swords made from the finest steel Victor could get his hands on.

[break]More Often Used: The Military don't like their king to go unprotected. Therefore it is often requested that the king use a sword and board rather than his preferred choice in weapon when fighting.
