OC POST! mentions Physical && Emotional abuse. Doesn’t go too in depth but still.
Ok. so. I talked about Daniel Rothschild V before. Just an intro for him, so in this post I’ll go into detail about his lore:
Starting things off with the way he was born; there was a high chance of both him and his mother dying during the delivery, and with Daniel lllV not wanting to risk losing his wife and third son, he decided to not only use machinery to pry open his wife’s womb, but also to fuse his son with metals and shit to keep him alive since even if he lived through the birthing process he’d still be extremely sickly and miserable.
Milana Rothschild hated this. The son she hoped would be of her own flesh and blood is now cold and metal. Hard, instead of soft baby skin. This made her look at Daniel V with disgust and anger, but mostly because she couldn’t take her anger out on her husband. As he grew, her hatred towards him grew stronger. Any chance she could, she beat and berated him, belittled his achievements, and even caused most of his siblings to hate him as well.
Daniel V was the underground’s darling for quite some time despite most of his family hating and being jealous of him, with him helping the cure for cancer, being the top of his class in anything he involved himself in, improving the relations between neighboring nations, and simply being eye candy for his kingdom and the rest of the underground. Did you know he was considered to be the most beautiful man during his reign? I don’t think he’s been dethroned.
All these things to be proud of, but the one thing he hasn’t been able to accomplish is to make his mother proud. Even though she starved him, beat on him, and has told him time and time again that she’d rather kill herself than live and see him. He still wants her affection. Whether he wants to admit it to anyone or not. Originally, he was not meant to be King, as the crown was going to his older sister, Kaja (also referred to as K.A.T.), who stepped down. She said she needed better control of her emotions, and being under pressure would not help.
You see, Kaja’s mood is affected by the mood and subconscious emotions of others. The royal court is a judgmental and corrupt place, which would only cause her to trigger her calamity. And kill everything in sight.
She also passed down her role as the control of fate to Daniel as well, because she felt like he was more ready than she was. He was not. definitely not.
Part two… coming soon…
