Lucian Aegaea

## Background

Lucian was born a spellcaster, inheriting his mother Caroline's affinity to fire magic. Unlike his siblings who did not inherit her fire affinity, Lucian did. Because of this Queen Caroline was hoping that Lucian could succeed her as the next Fire Elemental Sage. As a young child, Lucian showed great affinity toward fire magic, and was proficient and quick learner in the magical arts. Lucian's parents held high expectations of him as the future King of Welig Kreke and potential Elemental sage.

However, Lucian gave up both his birth right as future King of Welig Kreke and magical powers to become a merfolk, for love.

## Description

Prince Lucian is exceptionally gifted in music. Because of his troubled childhood, music was his companion. Songs in the minor keys touch his soul the most because they carry a sense of melancholy and sadness with them. When he plays music, that is when he feels that he is free. Lucian understands his responsibility as heir to the throne and is well-behaved, refined and responsible. However, inside, Lucian feels suffocated and truly wishes to be free.

## History

### Spellcaster

As a Spellcaster Lucian inherited the Ancient bloodline from Caroline and her Fire affinity. Because of this, Caroline had high hopes that he will be the future Fire Elemental as he showed at an early age that he was the most promising out of his three siblings.

Lucian had two familiars, a snub nose bat which he named Rou, and a dragon named Sephira. Lucian achieved the Virtuoso rank during his teens. By the time he was 21, he was a Sage rank equivalent, only that he was not officially conferred a title as he was supposed to succeed Caroline as the Fire Elemental Sage.

At 21 years old Lucian started official duties as crown prince of Welig Kreke. He performed various duties for the State, as the representative of his father, King Julian. He was also a very strong magician, utilizing his immense powers - a trait only he has among his siblings because of his ancient bloodline - to help with dealing with disasters and all.

By the time he was 21, it had been 4 years since he last saw or spoke to Xenia. And he had also become more disciplined and mature, putting his desire and feelings for Xenia behind. He loved his country and his people, and continuously told himself that he had a duty as Crown Prince to take care of his people.

## Relationships

### Caroline

* As her firstborn, Lucian inherited Caroline’s ancient spellcaster bloodline and elemental affinity. At age 14 his magical powers manifested. Caroline loves her Lucian dearly, however, Caroline is often strict with him. As Lucian is her eldest son, Caroline has always placed high hopes and expectations on Lucian. She personally guided him in his childhood and he is particularly close to her. She entrusts her two younger children to him as he is the eldest.
	+ Caroline hopes that Lucian will be the most skilled, wise and great king and spellcaster.
	+ Caroline was disappointed to find out that Lucian had fallen in love with the mermaid princess because love between spellcasters and mermaids are forbidden - because children born from such a union are monstrosities that disrupt the world and cannot be born

### Xenia

On his 16th birthday, Lucian met Xenia. He fell in love with her almost instantly. It was her singing that drew him to her, as he was walking along the shore. He did not know she was a mermaid. They met once every month, because Lucian has his responsibilities. Every 15th day of the month, Lucian would go down to the beach to watch the full moon with Xenia. Xenia tells him a lot of things about the ocean, about mermaids that live in Atlantis, and all that. But of course, she tells him it is all a myth. And Lucian does think so too.

Lucian has not confessed his feelings to Xenia, but does so in secret through the songs he dedicates for her. He names his songs after the ocean: Ocean’s blessing, Siren’s call and Siren’s Blessing

On Lucian’s 17st birthday, Xenia tells him that she is in love with him. Shocked and happy, Lucian kisses her, returning her love. Xenia reveals to Lucian that she is a mermaid, and her transformation both awes and shocks Lucian. He wants to be with her, more than anything. And he too has come to love the vast blue ocean with a horizon that never ends. Lucian asks Xenia to be his queen.

However, Xenia rejects Lucian as she is already Queen of Atlantis. Her duty to the merfolk and her underwater kingdom must come first. She invites Lucian to join her as king of Atlantis instead, revealing that he can become one of them - the merfolk. She tells him that the ocean is free, and wild, and vast. And his wish for freedom will be fulfilled.

However, Lucian apologizes and tells Xenia that like how she has a duty to her people, he has too. (the photos of them hugging). He realises that they cannot be together apologizes. Xenia tries to hold him back, however, he lets go.

Both their hearts were broken. And Lucian dedicates a song to express himself. On the month after his birthday, Lucian does not go to see Xenia. Instead, he looks at the moon through his window, thinking of her

A few years later, Lucian married Xenia.

### Maureen Moyer

One of Lucian’s many Ex-girlfriends. After Lucian’s initial break up with Xenia, he sought love from elsewhere. He flirted and got into fleeting relationships with a number of girls, to try to get over his feelings for Xenia. He did make out with various women, but he never could bring himself to have sex with any of them. He would usually feel disgusted after they reach the making out stage, and then he would loathe himself and end the relationship
