DKing: Frederic Gaspard Henri Philippe Robert (24)
DQueen: Ysabel Araceli Luisa Xiomara (17)
From the Royal House of: Whitelake
In the Kingdom of: Legato
Frederic became king suddenly at the rather young age of 24, after his father (a healthy, fairly young man of 48) was killed in a hunting accident. As Crown Prince, he found himself on the throne with no warning, and was pressured into a quick marriage in order to produce an heir as soon as possible. He had been betrothed for some time to Ysabel's sister Estela (who was 3 years Ysabel's senior), but Estela had been ill for some time and in the interest of expediency it was decided that Frederic would simply marry Ysabel instead. It would allow for the same political alliance while also allowing the new king to have a queen sooner.
Ysabel is a bit resentful about the marriage, as she had originally been betrothed to a childhood friend of hers and, while she wasn't in love with him, didn't think it so bad to be married to a friend. She had only met Frederic once, years before their marriage, and she had never spoken to him, so she was in effect marrying a stranger. However, she was raised to be dutiful and obedient, so she gets along well with her husband despite her resentment.
