A foolhardy and charismatic lover boy who finds himself head over heels for every girl he meets, and his affections are often welcomed. The only thing he loves more than women is money. However, he makes all his money through schemes and scams, so he will either have a small fortune or not a penny to his name. He does not support the current King, and he’s very vocal about it, often arranging protests and lively discussions that could put his safety in danger.
