Euergetes Ptolemaios
Kleronomos Basileios
Background:
Euergetes is a sickly and poorly grown youth. He is small and his muscles have grown so little there is little power in his sword strike or spear throw. The Gods did not gift him great wisdom either, though that's not to say he is dumb. He knows how to read and write and is competent in mathematics and logistics, though he does not excel in any of these. In battle it is unknown how he will cope, but he is tactically aware.
His greatest gift is a silver tongue, one that can win the hearts of man and woman alike. This has helped in his selfish womanising through the major cities he has visited with his father, even at such a young age. His relationship with his father is strained at times, due to him not agreeing with many of the decisions he makes, though he is steadfastly loyal and would never think of going against the Basileus' words.
Secondary Characters:
