King Knox ▪ 30 ▪ Cis Man ▪ He/Him/His ▪ Vin Zhang ▪ Unaffiliated ▪ Open
Triggers: Execution, Coup, Childhood Trauma, Abuse, Mental Illness, Emotional Cheating
→ Past
Knox never knew his father and having known his mother his entire life, frankly, he couldn't blame the man for leaving. In the best of times, the Duchess was senile. She prattled on and on and forgot to do basic things, like feed her only son. Once, she mistook a pig for him. There were other times when she was much worse, snapping at him for no apparent reason. The Duchess loved him and he loved her, but he essentially had to raise himself.
It was during one of his "hide and seek" sessions as a boy that he found a lost little kitten. Of course, he quickly realized his mistake. She was a shapeshifter. That was how he met Kit. That was how he first fell in love.
Maybe that should have been enough. The two of them grew up together, bonding in a way only two lonely (and traumatized) people could. However, Knox wanted more. So, when the Queen of Hearts asked to marry him, he accepted. Unfortunately, that meant letting the person he loved go.
→ Present
Knox made a name for himself as a wise and kind king. A lovely foil to the queen. He often had to pardon people who angered his wife, making sure they didn't execute everyone in Wonderland. This charm and benevolence was what helped him establish his own power.
Unfortunately, Knox was greedy. He staged a failed coup. Knox was sure the ordeal would end in his death. In a way, it did. Victoria, his ever-intuitive wife, implicated and executed Kit.
Knox, though technically under house arrest, possesses strong levels of magic. So, he often escapes the castle without anyone noticing. He is intent on slowly building his power, one way or another.

Queen Victoria ▪ 25 ▪ Cis Female ▪ She/Her/Hers ▪ Barbie Ferreira ▪ Unaffiliated ▪ Open
Triggers: Beheading, Execution, Coup, Murder, Mental Illness
→ Past
Victoria took after her mother. Psychopathic, conceited, and filled with anger issues. She watched her mother destroy entire kingdoms just because she was bored. Frankly, the former Queen of Hearts was Victoria's hero. She wanted to rule in the same way and she did.
The Kingdom of Hearts had long been a matriarchy, but Victoria still needed a suitable partner. The Duchess frequently droned about her beloved son in that deranged way of hers. However, the second Victoria saw said son, she was smitten. He seemed like a good foil and a worthy future husband. Thankfully, Knox wanted power and quickly agreed to marry her. Unfortunately for her, they did not have the fairytale marriage she desired.
→ Present
Nothing ruins a relationship quite like a coup. Unfortunately, that is exactly what happened between Victoria and Knox. Her beloved husband decided he was done being the second in command and attempted to overthrow her. Though his people were formidable, in the end, she prevailed. Of course, it would have been easy enough to kill him where he stood. Instead, she decided to do something much worse. Victoria claimed the Cheshire Cat, her husband's former lover, was part of the coup and needed to be beheaded.
Though Knox had long tried to convince her there was nothing between them, Victoria always suspected the truth. It was amusing watching her husband try to conceal his sorrow and rage. Unfortunately, the damned cat disappeared before her execution. So, Victoria played a little trick. She grabbed another prisoner and used a bit of magic to make them look like Kit. Then, she made her esteemed husband watch his ex die.
Knox currently remains at her side, basically under house arrest. Though their marriage is essentially over, she enjoys torturing him as he awaits her next decision. Victoria has heard rumblings of the above world and all that chaos sounds, frankly, fascinating. Maybe it's time to plan a trip.
