Yours is a story of delicacy.

Strong isn't necessarily the first-word people would use to describe you. Even as a young girl, you've always been a fragile soul, always being attracted to the more feminine things in life.

And because you've had a strong love for all things traditionally feminine, it's led to those around you underestimating your abilities.

For under your soft exterior lies a wickedly intelligent schemer with a talent for strategy. All your life, you've dealt with the condescension from others, particularly from men in power, and it's only by the grace of God that your title as princess stops you from exacting your rage.

What most don't remember is that the Nightshade is as deadly as it is beautiful.

Yours is a story of vanity.

There are many ways to describe you, the most notable being the following; a glutton for the lavish, a self-centred brat, and what is perhaps your most favourite attribution, a spoiled .

You've never felt the need to keep your ego in check, priding yourself on being the most important man in the room at any given time. This instilled confidence comes from years of your parents buying your love through luxurious gifs and your wrapping them around your little pink finger.

Manipulation is the name of the game, and you have the highest score. But you know your worth, you desire- no, you deserve- much more; simpling painting the town red is no longer enough and you've set your eyes on the grand prize.

After all, you've always been treated with the best, so you always want the best.

And how much better could it get than to marry a princess?

Yours is a story of unattainment.

It seems that no matter how hard you try, life just always seems to find a way to screw you over.

Whether it's losing by one point in a game of football, or not getting the girl in university in lieu of your rival. You're never quite good looking enough, not quite smart enough, and while nobody else seems to notice- you do. Your inadequecy in life has led to an unspoken jealousy and rage towards your community.

But none of that matters for the thing you desire most in this world - the heiress.

Your love for her has burned for decades but never has she looked your way; to her, you have always been the steadfast friend, the readily available shoulder to cry on.

But you will be damned if you let her fall for the enemy.

You'll do whatever it takes to make sure she notices you... And not him.

Yours is a story of frivolity.

And how it puts you in a position that none would expect.

Working for the royal family has been a tradition for the women in your family, it's not necessarily a legacy nor sworn duty but it's an easy enough job with a good enough pay. And besides, it allows you to do what you do best.

Gossip.

Aside from your position on the employment latter, you're known for your lively dispostion and flirtatious attitude to any and everything that walks; you've made yourself a name for being an excellent secret keeper, a makeshift detective when the latest rumours of a fling between a knight and a butler are flying, and a chronic conversationalist.

You know the people and the castle better than anybody, including the royal family, and it's no surprise that you've overheard confidential exchanges not meant for prying ears. You've held your tongue though, unless you've found it necessary, and now you've begun to hear troubling whispers, but do they really mean anything? Only time will tell.

XOXO.

Yours is a story of dignity.

Unofficially, you're one of the most powerful men in Verona. You hold no noble titles, no deeds to vast acres of land, your fortune is relatively modest, but you possess the one thing that matters; respect.

You have served as co-commander of the the Veronian army for years, alongside your brother-on-arms, bloodhound, and by the gods, have you left your mark in the history books.

Even now, battle-worn and weary from the heavy weight of duty upon your shoulders, you are a formidable force of nature; likened to a hurricane in the heat of battle. Some say that you are the heart of the kingdom itself, a small but integral piece of the soul of Verona. However, serving so many years does not come without its burden.

You've taken on a vow of passiveness, refusing to take part in anything more than training the future soldiers of Verona.

But who's to say that the man, the kingdom, will survive this oncoming threat? Is it time to pick up your sword once more and fight for the city you've dedicated your blood too?

Yours is a story of redemption.

You've been a wildcard all your life, and it's lead to less than stellar decisions in the past. What those mistakes are? Well, you don't particularly like to talk about it. But, it's done and dusted at the end of the day, and what's important is who you are today. You've buried that part of yourself long ago, and it will never see the light of day.

Today, you are a respected leader of the Verona community. You may not be as popular as your aragorn-esque partner, The Storm, but those in Verona know to think twice before crossing you.

But the past has a tricky habit of coming back up at the most inopportune times.

You'd never betray your brothers, you'd never betray your city, but if the letters, the photographs, that arrive at your home in the dead of the night are any indication, it's that somebody is trying to worm their way into controlling you.

Yours is a story of honour.

Or maybe of your abrasive nature?

Whatever it is, you play the part of the gruff, traditional lord so well that nobody would be able to tell that you're a family man at heart.

You and your wife are a perfect juxtaposition of each other; where she exudes kindness and can be read like an open book, you reject any form of socialibility and value you privacy over all. The only thing that you'll allow others to see is the love you have for your wife.

But while your loyalty ultimately lies with her, you are a devoted follower of the Capulet reign. Like many of your fellow noblemen, you're not blind to the unease rippling through the city. Something is happening, and your intuition is that things will get much, much worse before they get better.

You just pray that, with whatever may happen, you will be able to protect your beloved to your dying breath.

Yours is a story of family.

And where your loyalties truly lie. You come from a smaller branch of the Montague family, one that never left Verona all those centuries ago, one where dealings in the criminal world weren't so overt.

You've never held any interest in joining the family business, no matter how loyal you may be to your kin, making you somewhat of a black sheep. But for all intents and purposes, you cared little about what was thought of you, preferring to sequester yourself away and hone your talents under the tutelage of your non-montague mother.

Your precarious position in the family was finally taken away from you when you announced your marriage to a capulet. It did not matter that your to-be husband had only the sparest drops of capulet blood running through his veins, he was the enemy and now so were you.

But after all these years, you've recieved the call to return home once and for all; the chance to be reintergrated just for your loyalty. So now you have a choice ahead of you.

Do you return to the past to reunite with your old family? Or look to the future with your new one?

Yours is a story of steadfastness.

Even in the face of mockery, you've stood fast with your morals, your confidence never wavering despite the humiliating fall from grace that has plagued your house for over a decade.

Even when the ladies of the court whisper behind their bejewelled fans about how, yet again, you've attended a gala without your husband by your side, you've never given them the time of day.

You know who you are, you know what you deserve.

It was only a matter of time before you would claw your way back to the top. After all, you have no intention of letting a little family tragedy be the downfall of the Verona Marquis. The only question is, how are you going to reclaim the glory of your house?

Yours is a story of atrophy.

It wasn't enough, never enough, not for her, not for you.

But you took it too far, didn't you?

You never meant for this to happen and, over a decade later, you're still dealing with the consequences of your actions. It was supposed to be the first step towards greatness but instead, it's all fallen apart. You spiralled, badly, you reclused yourself from your duties and your family, leaving it all to your wife to handle.

But while she scrambled to keep the household from falling into complete disarray, you let yourself fall into a dark place.

Yours is a story of competition.

And how it almost tore your family apart. You're the younger of two, with a rather significant age gap between you. Your older sibling was the definition of golden child, excelling at all areas in their life while you just.. existed. Your parents enjoyed pitting the two of you against each other, and although your sibling saw their poisonous ways, you fell victim to their ploys.

But try as you might, you could never quite catch up. Over time, as you matured, you came to realise that your competitive streak was unhealthy and after some much needed soul searching, fuelled your outspoken nature into the most unlikely of careers: politics.

You're by the far the most charismatic of the lot, able to sugar coat even the most unpleasant topics to keep the public on the royals side.

Living the life of a public figure doesn't quite have the same rush of thrill that working on the stock market did but the work is no less rewarding; at least now you have a chance of turning to your parents and throwing their condescension in their faces.

But the subtle rise in crime across the city hasn't gone unnoticed by you, and it's the perfect topic for your next campaign. The problem is, how will the mafia react to having their cover ousted by a vivacious spokesperson?

Yours is a story of judgement.

Life has not been kind to you. Born in the West End of Verona felt like fate had pondered your existence before tossing it into the garbage. You lacked any sort of real role models in your life, your parents certainly didn't give a , and most of the inhabitants in West End ended up on the streets or a part of some small time crime group just to get by.

And for a while there, you were heading down the same path. You got into some tough times, borrowed a little too much money here, bad-mouthed a few guys too much there, all of it dragging you down further into the desparate underworld of survival.

It was, perhaps, sheer luck when a heist gone wrong landed you in front of the commanders of the Veronian army.

But what you had originally thought was an interrogation quickly turned into something more. Despite your touch exterior, you knew deep down that you had a compassionate heart, and the two men before you saw the same.

They extended their hands, offering you a chance to leave behind West End for a life of respect and honour, a real life, they said. Why follow the brambled path of self destruction when you could take the opportunity to be better?

Suffice to say, you've never looked back once.
