Thorax Carcassonne
Lefty Brennenberg's Betrothed
Thorax Carcassonne is the woman who was betrothed to Lefty in the land they both came from. The Carcassonne family, lesser nobility, is a family of scheming warriors and politicians. They were assassins for generations. Thorax's promising to Lefty was almost entirely a political arrangement for power; Lefty would not ever be in the position to take the throne, but marrying in promised a future where the Carcassonne clan could maneuver to be on the throne.
There are two ways that Thorax could have viewed this that I've already thought of, but you don't have to use either of them. The first is that she did genuinely come to care for Lefty, but was aware of family loyalty, and so was conflicted--
Because the plan was to get in, have a litter, and then assassinate members of the Brennenburg family. Once Lefty was higher in the chain of inheritance, they would have died as well, leaving Carcassonne blood well in the running for rulership.
The other idea I had is where Thorax viewed Lefty as burdensome and stupid, and was planning to have a singular litter before killing them herself.
Its possible for them to eventually develop an actual romance here on Ardent, but back before they simply didn't have the time.
If you're interested, please reply with a personality writeup and describe to me Thorax's view on the relationship.
The concept of an incredibly slow burn is very appealing to me, especially because Lefty was slated for assassination-- but now, without those politician motivations, that doesn't need to happen. Thorax can be open to an actual relationship.
Please note this doesn't have to be a romance plot. They can wind up enemies or friends-- i just would like to see this character taken.
Thorax may be female or nonbinary, but may not be male identifying or Lefty would have refused the betrothal.
