Occupation
● Prince: In many circles, being the second Prince means one is more of an auxiliary Prince meant to step in only if the first falters. Thus we are trained just as well as the first, but under the assumption we will be kings of another land at best. But mother does not believe in the hierarchy of age, so all of us have an equal likelihood of attaining the throne, technically. However, the candidates truly are lackluster.
● Casanova: My true calling, I suppose. It is my duty to enthrall people into giving me what I want. I do this not just for carnal pleasure, but also as a way to dig up information on people. Many a juicy secret have I heard in the bed chambers of another.
Hobbies
● Combat Training: I never really have to battle, after all, no one would dare risk annoying my mother, but all the same I enjoy a good scuffle every now and then. I've picked up a few different fighting styles over the years, and am quite deadly.
● Sewing: Not exactly something I advertise, but yes I can sew. I learned that if you want something done right, you must do it yourself, and I don't trust others to carry out my vision.
● Philology: Philology is the study of words (not to be confused with etymology which is the study of the origins of words.) I am fascinated by the evolution of words, how their denotations can vary so greatly with their connotations, notions expressed in another language by a single word, and how the mere sound of words can elicit different sensations. I have taken to studying these qualities albeit in an informal manner.
The Personal Things
▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃
Personality ● If I were trying to sell myself, I would say that I am dashing, handsome, charismatic, attentive to my lover, independent, and fierce. That is all true, more or less, but it is a positive spin for everything. Frankly, I'm a libertine who enjoys all of life's indulgences, enjoys a good fight every now and again, and has a flair for the dramatic. I love fashion and refuse to look anything other than my best. I come off as a bit effeminate, and when combined with my pansexuality, somehow has given everyone the impression that I'm gay. I don't mind, it makes people much more likely to leave me alone with young women... I suppose another trait of note is that I absolutely despise work and have no interest in making significant efforts. I am not, however, lazy. If I've a goal in mind, I will see it through to the end even if it takes a bit of scheming and finagling on my part.

Strengths
● Blood Magic: I have inherited Mother's blood magic capabilities. I am decidedly not as proficient as her, but I am a superior to many.
● Man of Many Faces: Yes, I am Prince Naji, but if the need arise I can be many more than just him. I have a handful of different identities I use here and there, all tailored to specific desires. And of course I would hardly object to adding another.
● Gorgeous: What is there to say? I am very handsome and everyone knows it. Good looks can get you very far, especially when your methods include getting to know people. Suitors are more than willing to give me whatever I want if it means I shall continue to grace them with my company.
Weaknesses
● Noncommittal: Swearing to one person or thing for an entire lifetime sounds inordinately foolish and dull, and I have no intentions of falling into that trap. Consequently I tend to rove from lover to lover, never stick to a project long enough to see it through, and am not always a loyal ally.
● No Friends, Only Allies: I have heard the term "friend" tossed around, and I know what it means in theory, but it practice I don't buy it. Everyone is just a pawn in someone else's machinations, and to believe that someone will aid you just because they like you is folly. No, I know those who aid me either have some angle they are working or they are appeasing me so I don't do something to them.
● Overconfident: Some would say that my assurance of my capabilities is a bit too high. Obviously they do not know me well enough. If it suits my fancy I will get whatever done no problem.

Biography
● I am the second son of the rulers of Bormiel, born just a little over a year after my older brother. I recall pieces of my younger days, but nothing of great interest. Though I suppose my father's death was a highlight. Frankly I remember little of him, mostly I remember hearing the rumors of my mother killing him. At the time I thought it preposterous, but as I grew more wise to the world and its political life, I came to realize those rumors were probably partially true. The error was in the fact that others believed she killed him for his predilection for men. No, I realized he had simply ceased to be useful. It was a harsh reality, but I took the lesson to heart and began to focus on how to maintain my usefulness (though I suppose I needn't worry overly much with mother, for some strange reason she seems to genuinely hold affection for all of her children.) Another lesson I learned from a young age was that people could be made pliable with the right motivation. With my nanny I would employ my childish cuteness to make her do what I wanted. With my siblings I could barter favors or threaten to tell on them, both with overwhelming success odds. And once I became a teenager, I found I could use my charm, my title, and my body to sway others my age. Title alone seemed to work on most adults. The further I delved into these dalliances, the more thrilling and rewarding it became, and soon it became a passion. Not only could I have some fun, but I could gather intel and potential blackmail all at the same time!
At some point a rumor began that I was gay, and while it wasn't true, I heartily welcomed it: who was going to be extra protective of their daughters, wives, etc. when they were in the company of someone who supposedly had no sensual interest in them at all. None of the women ever outed me as then they would have to admit that they knew this because they had had a dalliance with me. Every now and then I would be less subtle when flirting with a man, thus reaffirming the rumor. I suppose this could make me the black sheep of the family, but with all of the intel I have given to Mother, I believe I am a tolerated sheep at least. Occasionally there are some side effects from one of my romances, but that just means we have a new agent in different houses. Sometimes there are individuals who just need to be gone. If they are in positions of power I will fight them only in the case of a legal duel, otherwise there are a few assassins I prefer; and if the person is of a low station, well I just dispatch them quickly and quietly. I truly am both a lover and a fighter.
