Elizabeth, Princess of Castlebourne and Duchess of Howe

**Elizabeth, Princess of Castlebourne and Duchess of Howe** (Elizabeth Victoria Alexandrina Bridget) is the second-born child of King Philip IV and Queen Mary. She is fifth in the line of succession to the Iredale throne behind her sister, Eleanor I, and her 4 children. She is a part of the Perlsea royal family due to her marriage to Ben, Prince of Castlebourne, first born son of King Stephen of Perlsea, and first in line to the throne.

## Early Life

Elizabeth was born the second-born child of the then Duke and Duchess of Howe. Like all of the royal children, no one really knows what the Princess looks like as royal tradition dictates that the children won't be seen publicly till they start taking on more royal duties.

## Throughout the Story

Elizabeth decides to go to the University of Iredale and be a normal person before she decides to become a full-fledged member of the royal family, despite the protests from her eldest sister and her parents.

While there she meets Ben in class and the two hit it off. As Iredale is isolated from the rest of the world, she has no idea that Ben is actually a Prince of Perlsea and second in line to his own throne as the prince decided to attend Iredale University for the country's isolation.

When Elizabeth tries to cut ties with him, Ben is hurt and upset again thinking his highly-publicized life is what drove someone away from his life again. However, chaos ensues when Ben finds out the real reason she tried avoiding him - she's a royal too!

## Physical Appearance

Elizabeth is a petite girl with Strawberry Blonde hair and the same sharp features of the rest of her family. She and her family look so much alike that she feared when her sister decided to come out to the public eye, her cover would be blown as well.

## Issue

 Princess Penelope of Castlebourne

## Titles and Styles

Since she was born the daughter or granddaughter of the Sovereign King she has the style of "Princess" in front of her name. Before being given the Duchy at the age of 10, she was known by her father's land designation following her name, so her name when she was born was *"Princess Elizabeth of Howe"* as the daughter of the Duke of Howe.

Because of the adoption of absolute primogeniture in the Kingdom of Iredale, Elizabeth did not lose her place in the line of succession when her brother Prince Henry was born.

With her marriage to Ben, Prince of Castlebourne of the Perlsea Royal Family, her titles merged with his. For a time she was known as *The Duchess of Oceanview and Howe*. In the Perlsea media, she is now usually only referred to as *The Princess of Castlebourne* while the Iredale media usually refers to the Princess by her Iredale title, *The Duchess of Howe*.
