Prince Caspian Dubois

Born second to the throne, Caspian was never meant to rule. His elder brother, Prince Adrien embodied everything a prince should be… golden, fearless, adored.

Two years older than Caspian, Prince Adrien died in a “hunting accident” five years prior. (would now be 30 years old ... died at 25). His death set the kingdom’s tension aflame and forced Caspian into the role of heir.

Caspian, quieter and more introspective, was educated and trained as the Second Son, he lived comfortably in that shadow until Adrien’s death shattered the kingdom’s illusion of stability. Suddenly, Caspian was heir apparent.

The accident… if it was one… left him haunted. His father grew colder, the court more vicious, and Caspian himself more guarded.

Rumors of poison, jealousy, and betrayal whispered through the corridors of Château des Arbres Noirs, and the prince learned quickly that truth was a luxury few could afford.

In the years since, Caspian has worn the crown’s weight like a chain. He fulfills every duty expected of him… signing decrees, attending councils, courting the noblewoman chosen for him… but behind his calm exterior festers quiet rebellion. He dreams of escape, of a life unmeasured by lineage and law.

When he meets her… a commoner... she doesn’t belong…. something within him stirs. For the first time in years, Caspian feels alive, not as a prince or a son, but as a man.
