About the Job

Male, 18-25. Lex’s arranged fiancé and fellow royal “transfer student” sent to keep her on-script. Appearance: Effortlessly polished and camera-ready. He wears sharp, well-fitted clothes that read as “preppy rich kid” in a high school setting--nice sweaters, tailored shirts, and shoes that aren’t scuffed. There’s a subtle formality to him, even when he’s dressed down, as if he’s always ready to step into a photo op. Personality: He’s intelligent, strategic, and charming in a way that feels practiced. He genuinely cares about Lex and understands the weight of duty, but he’s been raised to think in terms of optics, alliances, and long-term stability. He’s not a villain--he’s just deeply entrenched in the world that wants Lex to fall in line. Beneath the smooth surface, he harbors his own frustrations and what-ifs, especially as he watches Lex experience the normal life he’s never had.
