Rayan

His Royal Highess Rayan of Farhaan is the second eldest prince of Farhaan's royal family. He lives in the Farhaan palace with his king brother, Tashri.

## Appearance

Rayan is a slight, slender, and rather pretty male. He has dark brown, almost black, wavy hair that reaches just below his shoulders, with a braid on the left side. His ears are large and his tail is long and thin. He wears lots of jewelry both on his ears and other places. His eyes hold a blank, glazed stare since he is completely blind. His face is soft, and his expression seems to be emotionless most of the time. His skin is a olive brown.

## Personality

Almost seen as emotionless and aloof, inside Rayan is very expressive and emotional. Though he doesn't show it on the outside, he is passionate. Even though he can't see, he is proud of who he is and his lineage, not letting much stop him from living his life. Towards his advisor, Marsi, he is affectionate and even a little clingy. His voice is quiet and sweet, though quite monotone.

### Skills

Though he is blind, he is very smart and does very well at mind games. He is also musically talented, and is particularly well-versed in both string and wood instruments.

## History

He was the second born of the Farhaan royal family, right after his brother Tashri. At first he was in line to be king, however it was soon discovered as a baby that he was blind from birth and was taken out of the line of succession. He grew up rather sheltered, being mostly confined to his room or the palace walls since he wasn't seen as independent enough to leave. As a teenager at sixteen, there was an armed attack from the Order Of The Obsidian Moon and one of their members, Marsi was caught by royal guards. Instead of being locked away or executed, Marsi was instead appointed as Rayan's official advisor and assistant. Rayan quickly grew attached to Marsi over the years and even developed romantic feelings for him.

One year, Marsi had mysteriously disappeared from the palace. With no way of knowing where Marsi had gone, Rayan waited. After months of waiting, he had heard news of Marsi's potential death. His father, the only king of Farhaan was also sick with a fatal illness and had passed away not too long after. Grief stricken and upset, Rayan shut himself away. This opened up an opportunity for his older brother Tashri to talk to him and get closer to him, the two of them being estranged since they were children. The two of them became closer of time, until Rayan heard news of a new assistant being hired for him. Not knowing who it was when introduced and not hearing the voice of this mysterious assistant at first, he was confused. It was then the assistant revealed himself to be Marsi, having feigned his death so he could leave the order without risking his or Rayan's life. It was also revealed that Marsi left in the first place because he received a secret threat from the order on Rayan's life, and in order to protect him he agreed to come back and work for the order for a while.

## Relationships

### Marsi

His most closest friend and now lover, Marsi is the only person Rayan can talk to about his feelings and worries. Rayan adores Marsi, and often accompanies him on official business. Marsi is Rayan's assistant, helping lead him around places he is unfamiliar with. They are often found with Rayan holding Marsi's elbow as they stroll around the courtyard of the palace and hallways. In the present, Rayan and Marsi are in the beginnings of a tentative relationship after many years of pining from the both of them. Though they can never truly reveal their relationship to Rayan's brother due to Marsi being not only a criminal, but also not apart of the royal family, they stay close and in love behind closed doors.

### Tashri

Rayan truly doesn't know very much about his older brother, but in recent times they have become more closer. Tashri has opened up to Rayan, and Rayan has opened up to him. His brother expressed his guilt for how his parents neglected Rayan, and how he will strive to be a better brother and king for him.
