Emperor: Gareth Calloway Isidore III (23)
Emperess: Tabitha Sophronia Wisteria Elspeth Apolline (17)
From the Royal House of Kasai
In the Empire of Trillium
As oldest nephew to the emperor of Trillium, Gareth Calloway Isidore III was accustomed to living a truly charmed life. He was rich, famous, and powerful (not to mention handsome), but the young man didn't have even an ounce of the responsibilities heaped on his four cousins, who were all in line ahead of him to assume the throne after the emperor's demise. Gareth never expected for a moment that he would be called upon to govern his planet and spent most of his days drinking and partying his way through the capitol, constantly ending up in tabloids and police blotters alike.
All that came to a sudden, explosive end when the royal family perished in a terrorist bombing at a diplomatic dinner. Investigators suspected rebels from on-world, possibly financed by the nearby planet of Abraxas, which was constantly after Trillium's rich deposits of fuel and precious metals. An invasion seemed imminent. But Gareth had a hard time wrapping his head around anything but the fact that he was now expected to not only take over as head of the government, but also to get married.
In order to secure an alliance with the world of Lynam, Gareth's advisors arranged for him to marry the oldest daughter of the secretary of defense. Tabitha was... young. Just seventeen. And she seemed just as wary of the match as Gareth was, but both were repeatedly assured that it was their duty to wed and lead Trillium through its difficult time.
(I'm going for a kind of future/scifi thing. hope that works.)
