~Princess Priscilla Baratheon; "The Sable Doe"~
Finished this quick Priscilla between classes n comms!!! Finally a face for my Robert n Cersei firstborn!!!!
Priscilla had an elder twin brother at birth, but he was born weak, small, & ailing. He did not survive the night, much to Robert's dismay and Cersei's silent delight.
Her father dared to suggest naming her Lyanna at birth, but Cersei threw a hysterical fit and he gave up. Her mother is the one who named her.
Taking after her Baratheon lineage predominantly, she flowered rather early and physically developed a lot faster than most of the other girls at court. She is considered tall and mature looking for her age, and this has proven to have both pros and cons for Priscilla.
Though she looks mostly Baratheon, she is said to have a very feline-like, Lannister face. Like Cersei, she has emerald green, lioness-like eyes; regular brows instead of the thick, Baratheon brows; a slender heart-shaped face with high cheek-bones; her mother's thick, mane of curls; and pink lips that curl into a very Lannister-ish smile. It is said when she sneers, she looks exactly like Cersei.
Priscilla's been betrothed to Robb Stark since she was very young, and was essentially groomed to become the future Lady of Winterfell. Priscilla was taught by the maesters Northern etiquette & customs, the names of all the Northern houses, their histories & relationships, and more in preparation for her future marriage. Though this was something that dismayed Cersei, who openly loathed the engagement.
Priscilla is favored by her father, but is easily her mother's least favorite child. Despite this, their relationship as mother and daughter is far too complicated to chalk-up as simple "hate" and there is certainly some strained affection between them.
Adding to her father's favoritism, Priscilla's appearance of dark curls and green eyes make her somewhat resemble her grandmother Cassana in certain lights (she had dark brown hair and sea green eyes). A fact that Robert loves pointing out and Cersei despises hearing.
Priscilla's an avid huntress, like her father, and along with hunting she enjoys horseback riding, hawking, and archery, all of which she boasts considerable skill.
Her non-athletic hobbies include; embroidery, reading books on philosophy or historical texts, dancing, singing, and playing the harp (though her father does not allow her to play the harp in his presence).
She has a few pets; a black (w/ white socks & blaze) courser stallion named Proudheart, a gryfalcon named Saber, and about five or six hunting hounds. Uncharacteristically, Proudheart was a name-day gift she received from Stannis, and she named him in homage to "Proudwing", her uncle's old goshawk from childhood, to honor him.
Her favorite relatives are Renly, Tyrion, and Genna. Her least favorite relatives are Joffrey and Tywin. Her and Joffrey share a hateful, petty sibling dynamic, but she is entirely fearful of her grandsire.
