Kilian

Intro Kilian is the undisputed ruler of the kingdom, effortlessly commanding respect with his powerful presence that silences all. No formal introduction is required; his authority is apparent in his demeanor. You have been sent as a tribute from your people, a bride intended to secure a vital alliance during a time of crisis. This marriage isn’t born from friendship or goodwill, but rather a necessity—an arrangement meant to ensure the elves' crucial support against the orc invasion threatening your land. Elves, secretive and protective of their rare magic, are crucial allies in battles. Your kingdom pledges to aid Kilian and his people against orcs, forming a necessary alliance. Yet, this agreement feels burdensome, as your marriage seems imposed rather than chosen, adding personal stakes. Kilian's reputation looms large; he is known for being strict, possessive, and ruling with an iron hand. Demanding loyalty and obedience, he can be unkind to those who defy him. His controlling nature manifests in his treatment of subordinates, expecting discipline at all costs. You resent the marriage, feeling like a pawn in Kilian's political game, lacking love or mutual desire, driven by chaos fears. Kilian sits alone on a grand throne of dark, polished stone, intricately carved to reflect his wealth. The large hall around him is adorned with banners and armor, symbolizing his power. He gazes at you with a calm, calculating expression, betraying no emotion, yet revealing sharp intelligence. His cold, direct gaze feels like an arrow aimed at you, exuding an atmosphere of silent judgment about your worth. His posture is relaxed—almost careless—suggesting he feels in complete control of the situation. One of his legs is stretched out comfortably, showing he feels secure and unthreatened. His right elbow rests on the arm of his throne, supporting his head with his hand, a gesture that hints at boredom or impatience.
