Can't believe how much of a struggle it was to get this out, but here's the Belian prince's SU. If anybody would like to discuss any possible supports feel free to message me.
Race: Human
Age: 15
Class: Pupil
Appearance:
Felix is unmistakably his mother's son, sharing the same loose-curled, raven-colored hair and piercing violet eyes iconic of the Empress. Unlike his mother, though, Felix wears his hair to only about chin-length. Despite his rare appearances out in the sun without his hood, his skin appears a lightly sun-kissed bronze. Felix's face is still extremely youthful due to his young age, barely displaying any typical masculine features other than the general shape of his face. As for his build, he isn't particularly impressive. He's only 5' 7" and is neither lanky nor athletic, instead falling into some fleshy middle ground only inhabitable by those dedicated to magic. However, the recent increase in his activities has resulted in a subtle hint of muscularity.
Felix's wardrobe is rather peculiar. As many a mage, Felix wears a traditional hooded tunic, pants, and cape, though his is much more practical. Both his tunic and pants are unremarkably grey, save for the small amount of purple trim around the face of the hood. The cape isn't as large as most, only barely reaching his shoulders when flayed out. The underside of the cape is a golden yellow, while the outside of the cape is purple. All of his pupil clothes help promote versatility and mobility. In addition to his pupil clothing, Felix wears a vest, which is the same shade of purple as his cape, for carrying trinkets and other valuables. Finally, a golden belt keeps his clothing in place and his grey shoes are trimmed with a similar golden color as his belt.
Inventory:
Thunder
Black Tome
Allegiance: Belial Empire
Personality:
One would never be able to distinguish Felix as the heir apparent to the Belial Empire by his personality. He displays very little ties to the Empire, specifically the council, due to a personal dislike towards many of the nobles. And although he does truly care for his mother, he feels no obligation to seek her approval. That does not mean he isn't interested in succeeding her, though. Felix does indeed have plans to rule Belial and, if he has his way, the entirety of Vojun. Thanks to his tactical mind and manipulative hands, Felix has a dangerously strong chance of accomplishing his goals. Nothing will prevent Felix from attempting to succeed in his plight either, whether it is conventional morality, a rival nation, or any other perceived obstacle. With that said, though, Felix is still rather unpredictable.
Very few aren't surprised at any odd behavior or action done by Felix, and even fewer actually expect him to do these odd incidences. It isn't unheard of him to make a complete 180 degree flip on a situation with little to no warning at all. Some say it's his wild card mentality, which has him often exploring unconventional approaches to gain a new outlook or improve upon his perspective. Others simply say he's as insane as his mother. His behavior is only made harder to guess since he almost never indicates any specific emotion, instead displaying a façade of nothingness. Felix's hard to read emotions have led many within the nobility to ponder his intentions, but only a few close confidants understand the true reason behind his calmness.
Not a single living soul ever knows what's going on in Felix's head, and for good reason. He's troubled by the thoughts of spirits, something he was told was linked to dark magic. The constant pestering and berating of voices has hardened Felix's ability to think, enabling him to remain collective in even the most distracting of situations. Occasionally, he even gains insight from the voices, learning of things that should otherwise be unknown to the world. These spirits have offered him even more knowledge, but at a price that he is unready to pay. Even still, the information gained has become a subject of motivation for his future plans.
History:
Never knowing his father, Felix's parentage is an enigma. His mother, Arya, was never documented as ever being in any relationship. There were no lovers, no princes, no political engagements. Rumors spread across Belial as to whom the possible father could be, but only outrageous stories surfaced. One such story implied that Felix was sired by something otherworldly, spirits to be precise. The rumor became somewhat pronounced due to the shamanistic nature of the Empress, but the Empress' allies quickly eliminated the rumor to prevent paranoia. These rumors persisted well after Felix was born, exemplified during his early childhood, which ultimately led to his apprenticeship to a retired sage.
Felix was unusual in that he rarely behaved like a child. He never pouted or threw any fits of rage, rarely cried as an infant, and spent more time in books than questioning his surroundings. It was clear to everyone that Felix's mental state was abnormal. Due to Felix's peculiarity, Tommen Aster, an ex-councilor on the council of seven, became interested in the boy. Eventually, Tommen approached Arya about apprenticing Felix, to which she agreed.
After Tommen received Arya's approval, he brought Felix into his care to learn the ways of sage. Felix was only six at the time, but he would spend the next eight years learning from the retired sage. At first, he was unable to understand the concepts of magic, but as he studied, magic came to him with increasing ease. Even so, Felix's magic was not anything considered strong, especially not for his lineage. Tommen sensed that there was a reason behind Felix's weak abilities, since it was unheard of for someone to be so adapt at learning magic and yet so weak. Unable to find a solution or cause to the aforementioned problem, Tommen shifted Felix's studies. Felix began to learn more about strategy and magic as a whole, all in an effort to prepare him should he not be a traditional mage. Like his previous studies, he quickly caught on and excelled in his application of the new knowledge. Tommen was truly surprised by Felix's progress. This would lead him to inquire Felix about his ability to learn such advanced material so easily. Felix simply explained that there were voices that aided him. Realizing the potential danger of what Felix had revealed, Tommen informed Arya of Felix's association with spirits. She dismissed his concerns and canceled Felix's apprenticeship, implying that she had already known.
Now free of his structured learning environment, Felix was guided by his own interest to learn. He focused on three primary subjects including anima magic, dark magic, and Vojun's history, all of which were suggested to him by the spirits. Three years passed by, and in that time his cunning had developed tremendously. The ancient strategies employed by various kingdoms among the annals of time had conveyed to Felix a most wicked path to war. Unfortunately, Felix's studies were cut short by his mother and the council of seven.
Empress Arya had proposed for Felix to take a position among the council of seven, though the council objected. She then suggested a trial to prove Felix's worth, to which the council agreed. She furthered the movement by allowing the council to decide on the trial's task. They decided that Felix would be given a band of soldiers, of which he or Arya could select, to take a region on Aecilia's borders. With no choice in the matter, Felix accepted his fate. He went through a rigorous selection process and, with a few choice additions by Arya, had his regiment march towards the objective. Now, Felix and his troops are warring on the brink of Aecilia, pressing to succeed in Felix's mission, both the one given to him by his mother and his personal one.
There are many anecdotes that can be found within Felix's past, such as his experiences with his ward, but for now they shall remain unknown.
Support: TBA (C)
Elswin (C): Felix developed a friendly rivalry with Elswin during a squad training exercise. They were leading opposing teams, and even though they served on different sides, they both recognized each other's talents.
Anastasia (D): Felix and Anastasia have only met once, specifically during one of Belial's political galas. Their meeting was far from the basic meet and greet that normally occurred at such events. No, it was a meeting where they discovered that their objectives were beneficial to one another, and that they would be more likely to achieve their goals with cooperation. Still relative strangers, they danced around each other in a dangerous tango, both trying to get what they wanted from the other. Being new allies, there is room for growth and discovery. Each person's knowledge of the other is vague, but their desires share a common trajectory that propels them forward together.
