## Prince Charming

Handsome, kind, generous, a man loved by all the people in his kingdom. Gideon has had a rough adjustment to being suddenly expected to rule in his father's agonizing abscence. Used to leading parades, making inspiring speeches, and leading his men in the fights on the borders of Kissash, he hasn't taken well to the bureaucracy and boring meetings of the political aspects of rule. He means well and has been trained his whole life for this moment, but he still yearns to shed the yoke of the nobility's whims and needs to return to a life of adventure and gallantry. He looks towards the party as friends, while maybe not close ones, for he knows that as common folk and everymen, they are the ones he should seek approval from. He also knows that he will owe them a great deal of gratitude should they succeed in their overarching task. If he was to be the only catalyst in breaking his father's curse he would surely perish.

## The Apple Fell Not Far

Gideon was born to his father King Aelen and his 3rd wife Saria on the morning of the Eleventh of Triiro. He was rasied in accordance with all royal children, given nothing but the best tutors and trainers for his entire life, well cared for by the best nannies and stewards, fed nothing but the best cultivated diets by the most renowned chefs cooking with the best ingredients. Gideon was a naturally intelligent and charismatic lad even at a young age, but took especially well to lessons of combat and tactics, his interest clearly developing for the gallant heroes of yore, a more classic depiction of a Prince Charming from fairy tales, the knight in shining armor. King Aelen initially disapproved of his son's seeming neglect in the more academic studies, but realized that he is what the kingdom needed. Molded into a headstrong personality and diplomatic force, Gideon spent many of his years traveling about the Free Realms as the face of the kingdom.

## Grim Tidings

As Gideon's father became more obviously cursed, Gideon was forced to spend more time in court at home. Now that his father's Fate is almost sealed, Gideon has been forced to hang the golden armor up and don the royal robes to sit glumly on the throne and listen to the same tired arguments and speeches for hours on end. The news that his father stood no chance of being released from his tortuous existence without a ritual that would be highly lethal to him made things no better, as it meant that until an alternative was uncovered, he would be stuck to the throne for the foreseeable future. Gone were his days of front line leadership and daring heroics, of traveling about the seas and plains of his kingdom greeting local peasants and nobles equally, no more would he bed pretty women. He was finally expected to act like a proper king.

## The Wildfire Company

The Wildfire Company's entrance into his life marked a fortuitous day. Not only was there a glimmer of hope for the first time in years, but now he had comrades once again. While perhaps overly trusting of the band of renegades and misfits, they were what he missed most in his life, brave souls who spoke their minds and didn't bend down to lick his boots at every instance. Rough and tumble men and women who did what they felt they had to do and didn't let red tape get in their way. So when Gyliad came under siege by demonic hordes in early Corter of 395, he finally got to spread his wings again and lead them through the city on a crusade for the first time in too long.
