I'm sending to you, for whenever you're in the mood to do another design game, my special little boy Dante~
There's not a lot of world building on my blog for this so I'll give you more of a rundown than before. His family basically owns an independent city state that is stuck between two much larger countries that really would love to go to war against each other but can't because the only way to get to each other's countries is through the city state. They are constantly trying to interfere to topple Dante's family from power so that they can gain control of this strategically important region.
His family is able to maintain control of the area because they have a lot of very powerful magic thanks to one of their ancestors doing some very questionable shit that has become a genetic curse on the family (meaning they are Very Slightly Not Human). But even though every member of the family has this magic it's still a curse that causes a lot of problems, and most of them will go through a specific surgery to get rid of it. They have strong general magic but specifically strong magic that has to do with sight (seeing the past and future, scrying long distances, and so on, which is how they keep an eye on both of their neighbors)
Naturally some of the family still has to keep it in order to retain control of the city state, and Dante is the current iteration. Due to his responsibilities and the consequences of this family curse he doesn't really get out much and he doesn't have a lot of friends. In general Dante is intelligent, gentle, and soft spoken. Since he is the one currently in this important position that takes up most of his time, he's held at a distance from his family and everyone else. He doesn't generally make a lot of demands on others but he struggles sometimes with loneliness. Hence when people do visit him he tends to get really excitable and he can be clingy with certain people.
He's actually an old middle school RP character of mine that I resurrected because I've always loved him so much hahaha

Okay but first of all, I love love love that you’ve kept him for so long — I’m actually resurrecting an old old WIP from middle school (albeit with major improvements to the plot and characters), so I’m always tickled when I see other folks doing the same. It’s like you’re showing me the ratty old teddy bear who’s sort of falling apart because it’s been loved for so long and I’m honored.
Now back to the Boy lmao
I LOVE SWEET SHY UPPER CLASS MAGE BOYS ugh i wanna wrap him in a blanket and give him soup. the picrew i wanted to use for this one (because it was GORGEOUS) has vanished, BUT this one is still alive and it worked out better because he's precious:
did i go standard mysterious and slightly introverted fantasy prince/noble? yes. yes i did.
thoughts? 🖤💜
