Crown Prince Arkyn

Crown Prince Arkyn is the second son and fifth child of King Arta Sitheil and Queen Sabriye. He will remain the Crown Prince until King Arta Dochas marries and has a male heir. 18 years old, he remains in the capital under heavy guard for the duration of the Coronation Procession, in case something should happen to his brother. He is the favorite royal child of much of the populace, and there is a famous tale of him at 6 years old standing up to his father to spare the life of a thief who tried to steal from a royal caravan. There are mutterings now and again about how having him as a king would mean much lower taxes, but he's offended enough nobles and diplomats that he only has the support of the populace. He is not yet betrothed.

Personality

Arkyn is publically considered the kindest of his siblings, which is partially responsible for his popularity. He's also well known to be incredibly bold and opinionated, and not afraid to state his opinion loudly. This wins him the people, but loses him the nobility and anyone else he's offended recently.
