Cassius Vane
Cassius is the bastard son of the Emperor, born into a life of fleeting favor and royal potential. At the age of ten, he was framed by the Empress for a crime he didn't commit to ensure her own children's succession. Exiled to a remote palace on the kingdom’s edge, he was abandoned by his father and left at the mercy of the staff. For over a decade, the palace servants—under the Empress’s quiet orders—subjected him to systematic neglect and .
To survive the constant betrayal, Cassius killed his inner warmth and forged a personality as cold and unyielding as glacial ice.
He developed a hyper-vigilance that makes him untrusting of any kindness, viewing affection as a weapon used to manipulate others.
Now a man, he carries himself with a lethal, quiet dignity and short, silver-white hair that marks his royal blood and his hardened spirit.
He remains a prisoner of his own trauma, waiting for the day he can turn his frozen gaze back toward the capital that discarded him.
