The Emperor wants Bastian to be married, and asap, so that the Princess gives up and gets married to the prince he's long had arranged for her like she is supposed to. The Emperor will do just about anything to prevent a replay of his sister, Helen's, fate, and is asshole enough to force the people involved. She has got it bad, and has kept up her fanatic devotion for 6 years. She sends him perfumed letters via secret carrier. She clips his newspaper photos to sleep with at night and cries over them being fated. This young and silly princess is set to marry soon, but she has got one Texas-sized celebrity crush on Bastian which has her imperial parents nervous. His fanbase also includes the current Emperor's daughter, Princess Isabelle. Just as soon as her divorce goes through, she has some plans for him. She appreciates his looks, his low cunning, and what she could do with his celebrity status. Daughter of the wealthiest aristocrat in the country, Countess Sandrine is whip-smart, cutting, and wants Bastian. He has a few, dedicated fans, though, including the cunning Sandrine. Though he is rich from his naval successes, (If he has riches from his antique dealer grandpa, he's hiding the bulk of it, or it's not enough to compare with the riches his father built out of it) most of the parents of those aristocratic maidens still second guess marrying their girls to him, due to his 'muddied' bloodline, ties to a former 'antiques dealer', and his unfavored status in his own family as not-the-heir. Problem 1, too handsome for his own good.īastian has managed to achieve dramatic celebrity success in the navy and is chased after by many a swooning, young, idiot, girl. He attended the most elite academy where he made oodles of connections, and then enlisted in the navy as an officer. Though Daddy Klausitz got his way: Bastian essentially disappeared from his life for the remainder of Bastian's childhood, allowing him to live an idyllic life with his newer and improved family.īastian managed to survive his childhood and thrive. Maria went behind her brother's back and contacted Bastian's maternal family, the Illis's, who swooped in and took the boy to live with them. He was saved from the ocean by his paternal aunt Maria. Young Bastian soon found himself the target of a few "accidents" and nearly died being thrown from horse and into the sea to drown as a 12 year old boy. If only he didn't have that pesky first son of his! He immediately married a 'suitable' aristocratic 2nd wife, Theodora, to erase his coarse, commoner 1st wife, and had the 2nd son he always wanted, with a pure, noble bloodline: Franz. With his commoner wife dead, Jeff Klausitz found himself in possession of a sprawling estate, a booming business, and flush with enough money to keep it going, so he turns his eyes towards getting himself and the Klausitz name into the aristocracy. He also picked up the former estates of fallen aristocrats creating a new family seat, and place to launch the Klausitz family into the aristocracy.īastian's mother was killed off to look like an accident. Jeff then jumped on the capitalist bandwagon, investing in railroads and becoming a wildly successful Robber Baron. Jeff Klausitz, of a cultured and well-off merchant family targeted this slum man's daughter and charmed her into marrying him. Bastian's maternal grandfather, of the Illis family, was a money lender and 'antiques dealer' (wink wink) in the slums, and became rich from it.
