A, F, Z, and E for the OC alphabet soup ask game.

( @angsty-prompt-hole )

Thanks for the ask, @angsty-prompt-hole! ♥️ Since I don't have an OC whose name begins with an F, I chose the letter that follows it.

ARLEN IUSCORA

He is the son of King Kyllen and Princess (consort) Avalynn and the younger sibling of Rosalie, but he never got to meet his family since his kingdom was taken over by another, leading to the deaths of his father and sister. He was separated from his mother for his safety, but she died before the two could reunite.

Arlen became a ward of House Garnett, where he met his best friend Isladine, and his identity was kept a secret until he was of age.

He has an undiagnosed heart condition that didn't cause him issues until he was older. In the history books, he has the shortest reign and lifespan of any king, dying at the age of twenty-four to a heart attack about six years after he reclaimed the throne.

ELISVEN SKYLARK

She is the last of six children total born to King Talieisin and Queen Vietna, and she is the twin sister of Aeris. Being born a woman, she was excluded from the line of succession and therefore was never expected to become the monarch.

Elisven is curious by nature and yearns to learn what her brothers are taught, but growing up she was only educated in "accomplishments" such as singing and playing instruments. Her brother Aeris luckily let her in on what he was learning, and she even got a seat in his classes for a time, taking notes for him when his arm was broken.

She becomes the first queen regnant in her kingdom's history, but this doesn't come to her easy.

GARETH ASTRA

He is the oldest brother of Kaylien (Radan's mother). Although he's more of a minor character in the story, he's one of my favorites.

Gareth was dutiful, and he was also loving and devoted towards his family, especially his younger siblings. He was rather protective of them, but never in an overbearing sort of way.

He was the rock of the family, and Kaylien's biggest supporter and confidant. She was utterly distraught upon learning of his death.

ZENOBIA

She was one of the archangels originating from either the first or second age (not quite sure yet, but she's older than most of those around during Guinevere's origin life).

One of the greatest archangels in history, she surpassed nearly all others in terms of power and beauty. She was an exemplary fighter, though this did not come to her naturally.

She is one of the few archangels to ever consider having a romantic relationship with a mortal, and she had many lovers throughout her lifetime, including the founder of the ancient House Harper.

Send me a letter of the alphabet A-Z, and if I have an OC starting with that letter, I’ll tell about them.

Thanks for the ask, @noblebs! ♥️

66%. If your character had to choose one friend they've valued over all others, who would it be?

Arlen would choose Isladine over everyone else. The two have always been there for each other since childhood, and he couldn't imagine his life without her.

Thanks for the ask, @howdywrites! ♥️

68%. How many places has your character lived in? What stands out most about those places to them?

Arlen has lived in various different places throughout his life. First, he was the ward of House Garnett during his childhood. Their estate is the only place he has ever truly considered home, as it holds plenty of fond memories. What stands out the most is the old oak tree around the back of the property. He and Isladine spent most of their summers sitting underneath that tree.

Then he stayed in Ganaeshia for a time, mostly at his aunt Marian's estate, but also at the castle. He enjoyed spending time with his aunt, as she was one of the few connections he had left to his family, especially his mother. I'm still developing this part of his life, so I'm not sure what might stand out to him the most in these locations.

Lastly, he lived in his family's castle back in Fayburn once the throne was reclaimed. He disliked living there as it felt empty compared to the other places he stayed. Arlen enjoyed hiding away in the library whenever he had free time. What stood out the most was the books in the library, as some are the only copies in existence.
