**Prince Drayven Alder** (***DREY-VahN Al - der***) is the heir to the Kingdom of Alder and the firstborn son of King Alphonse Alder. As such, he has been groomed from a very young age for leadership. He is a very well-read and well-spoken intellectual (much to his father's dismay) with quick-wit and charismatic air. He seems greatly concerned with the recent governing of his subjects and is at odds end with his father, who has grown ever increasingly paranoid and bitter towards him.

Often he is seen as an object of adoration by some subjects, he is also seen as a goal to be conquered by the noble houses of Alder. Steeped since a young age in politics, he has grown a resolve against those who seek to use and abuse him. Though his current situation with the necromancer Valmont is unlike any others.

## Biography

Prince Drayven is the firstborn son of the royal family of Alder, a patriarchal society in which the eldest son is to inherit the throne after the pass or resignation of the father.

As an infant and young child, he was somewhat small and frail for his age. As such, his father Alphonse took great care to pamper and protect him at all costs. He had a number of wet-nurses and specifically arranged playmates.

However, much of his childhood was spent being groomed and tempered into an idealistically strong leader. He received the best possible formal education, exceeding in every academic pursuit. So much so, his teachers and scholars took a keen interest in him. However, Alphonse did not like this academic agenda being pushed and would often switch up scholars he felt suited his desires.

Even though he grew up in the lap of luxury and was given every possible thing he could want or need, his childhood was immensely controlled.

At some point Alphonse and Drayven grew quite distant, with Alphonse later openly being hostile towards Drayven, often unprompted.
