Personality:[/size][/font] Though Cornelius is a Prince he doesn't always act like it having many a time gallivanted off at night or when he was supposed to be attending some event with his parents. He doesn't dislike being a Prince but just doesn't like to be restrained which it can feel like sometimes when you have princely duties to attend to. He is an adventurous fellow always flying of on his trust stead Buzzby when he gets a chance to escape and he will fly around the area's surrounding his land meeting new people and making knew friends along the way. He still does this but maybe not as much now that he has his dearest Thumblina to come home to as ever since her first saw her their was an instant connection between them that is still there to this very day.
Despite his adventurous and slightly rebel side Cornelius is also a person who loved to help others as he help his dearest Thumblina when she was taken away and kidnapped. This has got him into a fair few scrapes in his time, ones he shouldn't be getting into as a Prince but he still does anyway to help those people who need it. Even though he is royalty among the faeries of the veil he only acts like a Prince when he wants to not caring for people to bow to him and treat him and differently than they would any other normal person. He does not which to get preferential treatment just because of his status as he is happy to talk with his people as if he was one of them and not their superior.

He is taller for a faerie and is in a good physical shape from the swordplay that he practices.

History: [/font]Prince Cornelius was born to the king and queen of the faeries of the veil. He was their only child and so had many duties to do as the sole heir to the throne. When he was younger he was an adventurous little boy always roaming around the veil of the faeries sometimes causing havoc by flying into things he shouldn't though he didn't know what he was doing being at a young age at the time. Most people because of this didn't mind as boy would be boys and do silly things from time to time. But as Cornelius grew older he still went off on his adventures even when he was tasked with his duties as a Prince to attend certain balls and events at his parents side. Instead he preferred to zoom of on his trusty bumblebee Buzzby and explore the world around him.
It was during one of these trips that he met Thumblina. He had been flying about one night when he heard her singing and so flew over to the window sill to listen. He went in and at first she was startled by him but eventually they got over the awkward first meeting and began talking. They began talking and he convinced her to go for a ride with him on his bumblebee. At first was she nervous but he promised what he would never let her fall. They went out on a rather romantic moonlit flight gliding over lakes and dancing upon flowers. When he returned her back to the window sill she gave him a string of forget-me-knots and he told her that he would never be able to forget her.
When he went home his parents asked him where he had been and he told them all about Thumblina and so he decided that he would return to he the next night and bring her to meet his parents. But when he did so he found that she was not their and had been kidnapped. He set out upon a search to find he not caring where he has to go or what he has to do to rescue her. Though as he searches winter is fast approaching making his task harder and harder as the season draws in. Though one cold and unforgiving day a gust of wind knocks him off Buzzby and into a pond where he is frozen almost instantly and becomes trapped within he ice. Cornelius remained trapped there most of the winter until three little bugs discover him under the ice. They managed to free the block that he was trapped in and melt the ice over a fire in order to free him.
Once free from the ice he thanked the little bugs before continuing his search to find his beloved Thumblina. He finds her in a patch of weeds still touched by the frost of the winter but as they are reunited Spring seems to come at once as Thumblina become a faerie herself and so he takes her back to his parents and they get married sometime later. Cornelius has now been living with her happily in the veil of the faeries, still going off on his adventures but also sometimes taking her with him too.

Role-play Example:
At first Laurence hadn't been really planning on attending the Halloween Ball on the premise that he hadn't got a date. Any girl he though to ask about he guessed would already have a date so he hadn't really tried. Sure he had attended events with a date before but usually the date had been his sister, who now was old enough to find her own dates and not rely on attending with her brother. She still got him to come as she promised she would have a dance or two with him there and would even help him with his costume. So Laurence eventually gave in as like he always did when it came to Beatrice. Also he had best go and keep an eye on her anyway as if their father found out Laurence let her go on her own with a date well he didn't know what would happen and didn't want to find out.
So he was kept in the dark about his costume until the very night of the ball when his sister handed him a pair of navy gym shorts and a blue cape. This puzzled Laurence greatly as he had no idea what kind of costume it was as currently it looked like some lame superhero.
"Err... I think you've forgotten some of the costume Bea?" Laurence told his sister who was digging through her bag looking for something. "I don't even have a shirt here are you sure the professor's will approve of this?"
"Shirt? you don't need a shirt when you’re the King of the Sea's, my lord Poseidon, you just need this."
It was then that Beatrice pulled out a tube of blue body paint and Laurence started to regret letting her choose his costume. Before he knew it he was stood it the common room, in a dark corner of the common room stood in shorts and a cape while his sister smothered his torso, legs and arms in blue body paint. It was clear Beatrice was enjoying herself as she made her brother look like the biggest fool in school. "Don't you think that's enough or I'll look more like a smurf than the king of the sea."
"Stop whining and be thankful I didn't make you a smurf, now stand still!"
At this Laurence did as he was told until she was satisfied with the blueness of her brother. The next five minutes she spent fiddling with his cape adding charms to it to make it shimmer like the sea as he walked. Laurence would have been happy for it just to be blue but his ever perfectionist sister did have to add all these finishing touches. After making his hair even more messy than usual so it gave it a 'seaweedy' look as she called it Laurence's outfit was almost complete.
Ok now there is just one last thing... Beatrice declared as she went to pull something out from where she had been hiding it. No king of the sea costume is complete with a trident!"
And with that she handed him the trident and took a picture before he had chance to get away. Then she made an excuse about having to go fix her hair before meeting her date outside so she left Laurence alone with his blueness. Sighing he decided he beast make his public appearance in the hall sooner than later and get the humiliation of his costume over and done with so he could try and enjoy the rest of the night. So exiting the common room his cape blowing behind him Laurence made his way to the Great hall his sandals padding against the cobbled floor of the dungeon. Thankfully his sister had given in and let him wear some sort of shoes as she had really wanted him to go bare foot. But he didn't want to run the risk of standing on something that had fallen off somebodies costume so it was for the best really.
Arriving at the hall Laurence was relieved to find that nobody at first decided to walk up to him and openly mock his costume. Maybe it was the trident as he could try and 'skewer' them upon it. Though he believed it was only made of plastic so would probably only leave a small scratch or bruise at most. So he slipped in as subtly as possible it was when you when painted blue and wearing nothing but shorts and a cape with a giant three prong fork in your hand.
