Character History:
Being born the eldest son it fell on his shoulders. He would be the heir and the one to look out for his family. When he was younger it wasn’t something he really looked forward to. When he was busy training and learning his role, he did his duty. It wouldn’t be later that he would figure out he was the guardian of his family. That woke him up and excited him all at once. Since then he’s been a pain in making sure his family is taken care of.
When his twin sister’s were born, he wasn’t sure what to make of them. One was quiet which wasn’t bad, but the other one was way too loud. He stayed away as much as possible with the loud one around. It wasn’t easy learning when things were quiet. The other siblings had come along blessedly silent and without too much trouble.
When they were older, he noted that Sophia was harming herself somehow. He had to get her twin involved. Once they found out about the harp though it seemed to help things. He steered clear of her before the harp not caring for her temper.
When he was twenty his father arranged his marriage to Orsola. He wasn’t sure he would like her, but grew to love his wife. It was unexpected, and yet it turned out better than he could have ever expected.
Life seemed to be working out beautifully until tragedy hit. Their father became very ill, and instead of getting better after a long battle passed away. It was his time to become full guardian of his family. He did his best to help his mother when she died. It was a sad time for all. He was there for anyone who wanted to lean on him.
Orsola and Ben tried many times to have children, but it seemed they had trouble producing an heir. He wasn’t sure they ever would until he was 25 and his son was born. He was very happy to have this happen. Things were looking up. It was suggested they not have any more children. He was ready to agree when he found she was pregnant again. He had done his best not to do this. When his daughter Mia was born sadly his wife passed away.
Two years had passed. It wasn’t easy readjusting to life as a widower father and head of his house. He was managing the best he could though. With his music he had grown closer to his sisters. It was nice playing the cittern for his children to calm them or to have Giuliana sing along. He had yet to coax Sophia into playing her harp along with him. He knew it might just be some time before he did get that though. He would bide his time and do his duty even if his children did scare away the help.
Writing Sample:
He sighed wondering what they had done now. He had two children not that old. He had heard the screeching from his office. If anything he loved his children, but they were troublesome enough to make a nun curse. He wished there was some way they had a mother to tend to them instead of having outside help to do so. He was constantly going through the ladies he paid to watch them too.
He sighed and was grateful when the screeching stopped. He thought everything had come back to quiet and normal. He then heard the slamming of the front door. Getting up he went to see where his two rascals were. He would have to take care of them again until he found the replacement, which could take a few days.
