۞ History:
Prince Edward
۞ Personality:
Edward has a high self-esteem and an ego that is almost as large as life itself. He comes across as a bit naive, a little pompous and certainly not without some flair and elegance depicting his royal background. He's proud of his heritage and doesn't mind telling a story or two when anyone asks. He doesn't like to give unsolicited advice and prefers to let people handle their own problems which can be a bit selfish but the way he sees it people grow better that way.
He's a bit innocent to the ways of the modern world and has a lot of curiosity to match. He doesn't mind a good challenge and he's not lazy but rather shows a more proactive side when he's faced with adversity. He can be warm and caring when he's not thinking beyond himself and he can be giving and loyal to anyone that he cares about. His loyalty, once gained, is unwavering and without a second thought. Generally, when he calls someone friend the title is well deserved.
Edward's athleticism is pretty evident and he's not afraid to take a risk or two. He's an avid troll hunter with a flair for the dramatic. He smiles a lot and seems content with doing anything that feeds his ego, which is just about anything. Don't ask him to pick up a broom though. He might think it's a training tool.
Naturally curious and inquisitive, Edward could seem somewhat as a simpleton in a more complex world. His willingness to understand things could be misinterpreted as somewhat irritating. He can learn quickly and he's willing to try new things as long as it keeps his interest. Edward has this inability to stay interested for long if the subject doesn't hold his complete attention. A scientist he is not nor will he ever make a good one. Academics or anything academic tires him out too quickly and he'll make it known.
A man of action, Edward prefers any outdoor related activity, especially the kind that allows him to show off a little, or a lot depending on if he's good at it. Since he loves attention and being the best at anything that makes him known, he tends to gravitate toward those activities that allows him to have bragging rights.
Which brings up another point to his personality, he's not a true braggart, but he loves to tell stories. He has a short attention span when it comes to long-winded lectures or events that forces him to sit for a long period of time. He's not too big into super serious matters or problem solving if he can help it. Although, he will listen if the subject interests him.
He's kind-hearted man with a huge ego. Part of this was covered before, but one of the biggest things about him is his ego. He's seen as confident and willing to lend a hand if there is trouble. He almost comes across as the goofy super-hero with a stance to go along with it. He loves life and being out in the thick of things, but there are times that he has learned to take the backseat and let others take a stand while he supports them and cheers them on. This especially happens when Giselle took on his step-mother in her dragon form.
Edward's belief in true love's kiss is a part of his culture and how life goes in his world. He loves, he laughs and he loves to laugh. Anything overcomplicated or too complex, he tries to put it together the way he sees it. Modern technology goes over his head but it doesn't stop him from trying to figure it out and often times when he finds a solution he's very pleased with himself. It's pretty similar to a kid figuring how something works and showing them to mom and dad in the same sense.
He loves to sing. Especially when he feels the need, he will sing and there's hardly any avoiding it. He often does things much to the embarrassment of others since he often lives "in the moment". He will do things that a lot of men his age will never do, which is quite a bit. A rock concert to him would be boring to him since in his mind, he would take the term very literally. "Why would anyone want to sit and listen to rocks?" It would be a very interesting time having a conversation with him about music. To him, they are two very different things and he takes lyrics very personally. This was how he was raised to believe that music is the language of the heart and it should be from the heart.
۞ Magical Powers, Skills, and Weapons:
Edward has no magical powers. He carries a rapier at his side and knows how to use it well. He wouldn't know how to use a gun or any other projectile weapon other than perhaps a cross bow or a long bow.
۞ Other Abilities:
Edward speaks the King's English, (or more commonly known as formal American English)
He's a hunter, a fencer and he knows about forest lore. Anything from a fairy-tale, he knows at least a little something about. Trolls are his area of expertise along with gnomes, fairies, sprites and elves.
Edward has a very nice baritone singing voice and he's not afraid to use it. Anytime, anywhere, he'll sing when he feels the urge to and sometimes embarrass people by proxy.
۞ Journal Sample:
[Edward's gloved hands hold up the magic mirror as he speaks through it as if it were just any other day. His smile is bright and his hair is perfectly combed.]
Yes, I'm supposed to address all you peasants in a day's greeting. Well, I'm giving my greeting in my utmost best. Good morning, everyone. It is I, Prince Edward of Andalasia and this morning, the birds are singing, the trolls are milling about and we mustn't allow those foul creatures near our home, yes? Yes. So, I propose we gather our best to chase them back into to woods from whence they came! Who's with me?
[No response except for a cricket which makes Edward look around to find the tiny creature. After several minutes, he returns back to the mirror and still no response.]
Well, little cricket, it's just you and me.
[He smiles again and runs off with the cricket screeching in protest.]
۞ Third Person Sample:
The clopping of hooves on the stone paved road that lead to his home was eerily quite this day after chasing trolls all day. He didn't have much to do this evening save for a few lectures on how true love's kiss was a thing of the past and not something worth saving himself for, he shuddered to think about what his step mother would tell him about tonight. It was the same old thing over and over again.
Still, he had a dream and he still longed for that one special maiden to share his love's song. He hardly found it worth trying to tell his step mother these things. He dismounted Destiny the moment he reached the stables as the hands began to rush around to take care of their beloved prince's steed.
"I'll see you tomorrow, Destiny." He smiled and pat the side of his white horse and friend.
He stepped away from the stables with his hand on the hilt of his sword toward the castle. The white marble halls echoed his footfalls. They seemed oppressively empty when normally there were people milling about through their coming and going that he wasn't sure what was happening. Music filtered through that forced Edward to stop and tilt his head in a questioning glance. Had he forgotten an event? Normally he was on top of these things.
He hurried through the halls still wearing his slightly soiled outer regalia that he didn't think to change out into his more formal attire. Through the gold embossed wooden carved doors, a grand ball was thrown yet he didn't know about any of this.
"What is going on here?" He said to a passing servant.
The servant simply smiled and continued on his way with the tray of refreshments. Edward stepped into the ballroom filled with different courtiers from other kingdoms, brightly colored regalia and many potential suitors, his stepmother sat at the throne with a bored expression on her face. It wasn't until she saw her stepson that she brightened, or at least managed a fake smile.
She made her announcement that her son had arrived and the crowd of dancers stopped to part the way for Edward. He did his customary bow and smile with a stride through the room. Then the announcement came that he would have to choose a bride. Edward's shoulders sank slightly with a roll to his eyes. "I don't want any of them. My heart longs to be joined in song and none of them hold a candle to my heart's song."
He wasn't rude yet he was tired of being forced into a marriage that he wouldn't be happy in and with that, and after spending several songs with his toes being stepped on in the process, he excused himself from the ball to return to his room. With a sigh, he gazed out his window and leaned forward on the sill.
"When will I ever find my one true love? Week after week I spend my nights with strangers that I don't feel that special connection with. Yes, they're all pretty, but I don't feel anything with them." He sighed as a falling star caught his attention. He puffed his chest and straightened his back. "That's it! I'll have to go out and find my heart's song myself! But first, I need my sleep. A prince can't go out in the worlds without the proper rest."
It didn't take him long to bathe, dress for the night and sleep until the song birds woke him from his slumber the following morning.

Which is your favorite rule?: OOC and IC are not the same thing. There have been more than one game that I have encountered where the players took things way too seriously about events in the game and bled their own opinions into their character. It becomes uncomfortable after a while and yeah, it eventually effects game play for everyone and not just the players that were affected.
Do you have any questions?: I don't have any at this time but when I do, you'll be the first to know.
