Christian
one of the heroes of my author's visual novel:Christian is the father of the main character, temporarily occupies the position of emperor (until his son reaches adulthood).
He is not interested in this position, does not like politics and social life, but tries his best for the sake of the memory of the former emperor - his brother, who tragically died on another campaign.
It is unknown where Christian's son came from. He spends all his free time in the laboratory or at the research station, hunched over the next fantastic project (as evidenced by his sophisticated shrimp-like posture).
He has never been seen in the company of ladies, although he catches the unambiguous glances of his young charming assistant…
He sure that it is better to follow the path of dictatorial rule, which his son Rafael does not agree with - but any attempts to challenge his father’s policies end in a harmless but severe punishment for his son.
“Grow up, plant a tree, raise a son and rule the Empire as you wish.”Rafael took some of Christian’s conditions too seriously 🤨
