Apparel & Accessories

Wears his school uniform as expected. Oh, except that he's turned his school jacket into a cape with wolf's fur as shoulder mantles. It's not surprising to see him let part of his button-down lay untucked from his pants. Somehow makes himself look fashionable despite his disheveled appearance.

Personal history

"Why take the world by the horns, when you could just stay away from the horns, you know? I'd much rather lay back and enjoy a a nice, relaxing -- OH SHIT! DOUBLE SIXES! Nice! Roll 'em again, boss!"

Raven was born Feylon Kyraceus Juliaron Buckham, the eldest son to the Lord of Buckham Province. In terms of trauma, he experienced none. His father and mother raised him well, and his father possesses high expectations of him.
 

"Nice to meet you too... but I don't think that's your name, because your name is... IT! You're it!" proclaimed a young Leo Astrid.
"You scoundrel!" shouted back a young Feylon, appalled at the lack of honor in the young Prince Astrid, before giving chase.

 
During his sixth year, Feylon spent time with a young Prince Leo Astrid . It was during this visit that Leo learned of his twin sister's fate and the true origin of the Festival of Lights. Due to a playful bout with Leo and his friend, Grace, Feylon earned the nickname "Robin".
 
At a young age, he met Declan Bransen, the heir of the Bransen family. Much to their families' delight, the boys struck a fast and powerful friendship. To Raven, it's his most important relationship. When he turned 8, his father shipped him off to his Aunts, Petra and Elena, to begin formal combat training. Petra identified early on that he would be resistant most traditional weapons. One evening, Elena brought home a revolver she'd confiscated from work. While she and the family tested it out, Raven fell in love with it. Elena arranged for a master gunman to begin his training.
 
At 11, his father, Kylar , sent him to the Buckham Noble Army to train with them and be a squire of sorts. It didn't take long for Petra to discover his assignment and usurp his placement to her own unit. She taught him the logistics of her command, how to be a leader of soldiers, and tutored him in tactics and strategy. She also procured academic tutors for him and had him instructed in politics, law, history, physics and mathematics, writing and language.
 
At 15, his father informed him that he would be entering one of the academic institutions in the country and that he should research which he'd like to attend. He wrote to Petra and Elena regarding this news, distraught that he would not be returning to their estate or to spend time under their tutelage. In fact, Feylon argued to his father that he would receive no better education than under the guidance of his aunts. Kylar adamantly disagreed, telling Feylon that they'd corrupted him enough. Petra and Elena both submitted writs of recommendation for Feylon to the Golden Academy. His father soon discovered he'd been accepted into the Golden Academy and assumed that Feylon had himself inquired the school to attend.
 
Feylon still has no idea his Aunts arranged for his attendance. He believes his father orchestrated it because the Golden Academy is his father's Alma Mater. Because of this, he resents his presence there.
 
Before his Second semester at the Golden Academy, his mother arranged for his engagement to Lady Harper Marshlyn.

Accomplishments & Achievements

"Dec, my greatest accomplishment's that I was born. And that'll probably be it for me."

Has completed a number of papers while attending the Golden Academy:

An Argument for Parliament

Argues for the establishment of several new ruling organizations.

House of Commons

The ruling legislative branch for the Kingdom, elected by regions within the provinces to represent all its people.

House of Nobles

A ruling legislative branch for the Kingdom, to represent the Nobility, largely presented as a necessity to mitigate noble fears of losing power.

Prime Minister

An elected position that resides at the top of both legislative branches. Agnostic of birth class, this person could be either a Noble or a Commoner, though Feylon surmises it would most often be held by a Commonder, due to the voting power of the Commoner populace.

The Crown: Chaos Masked as Order

An in-depth discussion on the dangers of power held by the crown and the vulnerability the results for all social classes, depending on the mental state and nature of the Monarch.

Argues for a legal limit to the Crown's power, leveraging international historical examples as to why this is a necessity.

Failures & Embarrassments

• Failed out of his first year at the Academy.


• Has done nothing but disappoint his father.

Intellectual Characteristics

Much more intelligent than anyone suspects. Due to his failing grades, his laziness, and lack of motivation, most characterize him as dumb as a doorknob. In reality, his intellect is superior to most in the Kingdom and he's a tactical and strategic ace.

Morality & Philosophy

To most, he seems to not really have any. His vices are many, as he believes life should be enjoyed lest it turn into a chore. But he's passionate about the wrongs of the nobility and believes people should gain rank in society by their accomplishments, not by their blood.
