Leen

Leen is the only daughter of King Roland. She was born in a time of rising tension concerning Lamb Shank in the North, and was eight when the War began. Her mother died before she was of age to remember her, and her father was too busy dealing with political business and the the threat Lamb Shank posed.

She is kindly and generally of sweet temperament - the only people she really seems to get mad at are people who have done something clearly evil in her sight, and Enzi. She dislikes arguments and will often over-simplify or ignore important matters in favour of peaceful relations. This said, she has a strong moral centre and a very low tolerance of wrong-doing, and surprises people with her heavy-handed and almost harsh reactions to bad behaviour - from petulance to evil. Moral relativism is almost unknown to her.

Having lacked sufficient parental guidence (being brought up by a faceless army of nannies), and due to the boyfriend-stealing of Cynthia (see below), Leen has developed a serious fear of being left alone. It's nothing pathological, but it grips her quite strongly.

She enjoys sport and physical activity, especially archery, a fact that does not impress her father, but which he has not had time to address. This sportsmanship is not tomboyness, but it has resulted in her becoming quite strong. Fearing that her strength makes her look unfeminine, as well as being quite modest, Leen dresses almost exclusively in conservative bell-dresses, even when they are inconvenient. She also takes great pride in her hair.

While being respectful, polite and well-versed in social graces, she lacks experience with people, and is often a tad naive through inexperience. This has been because of a native modesty holding her back from extravagant social activity, as well as a sheltered existance.

She is very skilled in politics.
