Personality:

 

In contrast to his siblings, the bold Robert and the eccentric Rosalie, Edward is a quiet, sturdy and very dour young boy. He is serious, cold, callous and unemotional in his mannerisms, having been starved of parental attention in his younger years. Every action he takes is calculated and put into place methodically. Rarely rash or brazen, he is a skeptic and puts great effort into being careful. He is extremely ambitious.

 

When he is around his sole friend, Dagmer Valois-Volsung, he is typically far less serious and more malevolent in his actions, being influenced poorly by the older boy into becoming a kind of 'trickster'.

 

Inventory: His silver princely crown and his small and sheathed steel shortsword gifted to him by his favourite uncle, King Peter.

He's quite capable with a sword for his age, and is able to best his far more emotionally-developed brother in a spar.
Flaw(s): Edward, even at the tender age of eleven, has shown worrying signs of manipulative behaviour. He rarely shows genuine regret for his malicious actions and is often extremely cold, callous and distant, except on occasion when conversing with his sister.

History

 

It was a peculiar love affair, one that the masses of both nobility and common men saw as false; a show in order to keep up appearances. Thomas Chivay, the brother of the Grandmaster of the Order of the White Rose, was to wed the daughter of the King of Salvus, Princess Lynesse, a half-elf.

 

Half-elves, or half-castes as they were more informally known, were to most of the Order a symbol of the elven infiltration of good, human society and a corruption of old-fashioned family values. Many believed this 'love' they bore for one another was a fallacy, though none voiced this opinion for fear of heavy-handed reprisal for Marquis Thomas, a man infamous for being harsh upon ne'er-do-wells.

 

The full details of their turbulent if not scandalous relationship would never be released, but Lynesse bore Thomas three children - triplets.

 

Two boys and a girl.

 

Robert was the first out. This slight discrepancy between the second of their release from their mother's womb dictated the future of these two boys. Robert was his father's heir, to inherit all his estates when he was to perish.

 

Edward was the second son and though he did not realize it then or for a number of years, would be forced to content himself with coming second in all aspects of his life.

 

Rosalie was the last - a precious girl possessing of the scarlet hair of her mother. Just like the symbol of the Chivay's blessed order, Rosalie was her father's little white rose.

 

Until the age of four, Edward was raised at the Imperial palace by the Crown Princess, Ari Horen. Occasional visits from his father and his courtiers were the highlights of his stay there, though his mother, quite noticeably, did not ever come. Not even his siblings quite knew why this was, and Edward was none the wiser.

 

Even when he was relocated to the mountain citadel of Ard Kerrack, Edward's father very rarely spent time with him. He was always performing business, he would say, as he secluded himself in his study full of old, leather-bound tomes with hook-nosed Sarkozy, blond-haired Brunswick, or even God's prophet himself, Lucien Ashford. When his father was freed from his duties, he preferred to spend time with his 'eldest' son and heir, Robert. Robert had grown slowly into a bold, urbane boy, conditioned appropriately for the hardships of ruling. Throughout this time, his mother never came home. Every now and again, he would hear the men whispering about her, that she had taken to the bottle, fled to Salvus and not returned to Ard Kerrack for years. Edward didn't want to believe it.

 

In the absence of his father, Edward took some solace in the fact that from the age of five, he was tutored by his father's most learned courtiers. Hadrien de Sarkozy taught him history and languages, Lucien Ashford educated him on the mysteries of the Creator, and his uncle Marquis Peter Chivay attempted to sculpt him into a master fencer. He took to these lessons very eagerly, fervently studying and learning about each subject.

 

Edward was confined to the keep most of the time, sometimes playing or talking with his eccentric sister Rosalie, whose company he genuinely seemed to appreciate in comparison with brazen Robert.

 

His family's trusted servant, Bran Volsung, sent his own second son Dagmer to Ard Kerrack to be raised alongside the Chivay children. Dagmer was a wild, uncouth boy with no care for his own education. Instead of studying like Edward, he preferred to run off and explore, causing mischief among both the soldiers and the populace. His father, Ser Volsung, disappointed with him in light of his other son and heir Balian, had sent him away to the Chivay keep. Dagmer and Edward's situations were in that respect very similar, and they quickly became fast friends. Dagmer proves to this day to be a negative influence on Edward, and together they may sometimes be seen causing trouble around the Empire.

Damn straight.

 

Also you forgot to add that Ed is crippled and a bit slow in the head and in a wheelchair because of his accident involving Dagmer and a certain dare involving a Bell tower, some vines and gravity.

And so he was transported to the UK's parliament, where he aged several decades, took on a new name and became the opposition leader.
