Character Name: Prince Hans of the Southern Isles
Canon Name: Frozen
Brief History:
Prince Hans is the villain--oops, I mean he's the very nice, super kind and totally-not-suspicious Prince from Disney's newest animated world-sweeping animated movie, Frozen. He's the youngest of thirteen and harbors a huge inferiority complex that he uses to justify his attempt to usurp the Arendelle throne. To this end, he pretends to be nice, caring and personable. Using lies and his impeccable mirroring skills, he charms naive, young, Anna, and nearly kills older sister Elsa (after fooling her into thinking she'd killed Anna with her powers.) Um, he's a bad guy... once the gloves are off. Otherwise you'd really never know it. Unless you're rude to him first, that is.

AU Ideas: Hans is going to be in the Swords of the Savior. His family is very affluent and very wealthy, with his father on the Council, and his oldest brother close behind. He'll still have the twelve older brothers, each with something that has earned them claim to fame before Hans was could so much as speak. While his brothers range from total douchebags to kinder guys who actually help out around the city, neither of them has the time or energy to pay Hans any attention, so despite living at home, Hans is, essentially, alone.

But that's okay! He likes it that way. It makes it easier to be nice to absolutely everyone and make allies he can use to improve his reputation. Like Luke, for example, who he's taken on as his sort-of protege after their moms hung out one time and Suzanne noticed that Luke wanted Hans to teach him how to use a sword.

Looking For: People who know of his family, the Westergards, so they can be like "Oh! You're such-and-such's brother, aren't you?" so that Hans can glower internally and smile. Characters who want to be friends with him! Or who know that he's nice/kind/helpful/smart. Pre-established CR would be great. Nobles (for Hans to befriend and hate internally,) and common folk (for Hans to befriend and look down on internally,) and really, anyone! Hans is a super nice guy as long as you want him to be. If you antagonize him, he'll antagonize right back, so if anyone wants negative CR, that's always available too.

Anything else?: If anyone wants to have their heart broken, then Hans is your guy. He'll be the best boyfriend you've ever had, right up until things get serious. Then he'll bow out and move on with his life.

Don't you want this to happen to you???

Haruka is a noble who hates "popular" men, is effortlessly good at everything, and is universally sighed-after by the female population.

I feel some incredibly entertaining negative CR coming on.

Oh my goodness do I sense a rival of sorts? ...In that Hans will consider her a rival internally and get really frustrated when he can't properly "woo" her.

I hope Haruka hates Hans. That would be great.

Haruka doesn't have to know Hans is secretly a jerk to hate Hans. Haruka will hate Hans for being smooth, and good with the ladies, and generally GOD WHAT AN INCREDIBLY CLOYING GUY HOW CAN ANYONE STAND THAT (then she turns around and calls a cute girl "kitten"). There's a double standard here.

Which will only be further pounded in if he attempts to hit on her, so by all means, go for it!

Haruka pls. Hans is clearly doing this out of the kindness of his heart. DON'T HATE CAUSE HE'S STEPPING IN ON YOUR GAME

He's gonna do it and be super sweet and awkward and charming, I hope you're ready

...how tall is Hans? Haruka is pushing six feet since she's older in BNW than in canon.

Is she taller than he is.

Oh my god she MIGHT BE.... Hans' height isn't like, official but he's only about half a foot taller than Anna? so maaaybe six feet at most. Assuming Anna is 5'6"~5'5"

DISNEY PRINCE HEIGHT IS USUALLY 6 FEET, BUT I'm willing to believe he's like 5'10" that seems more legit. HE'S... PETITE.

This is going to be so beautiful. ~~also if he hits on michiru he has an enemy for life, so~~

~~You know he's gonna hit on Michiru, that's pretty much a given~~

~~keep your dirty hans off that perfect human being you scumbag~~

xcuse you I haven't done anything wrong yet there's no reason for dis hate

r u a hater, haruka

if you're within a yard of michiru you better believe you did something wrong

also i'm the only one who can work a cravat what do you think you're trying to pull

don't get stingy with the hot girls, gurl, that ain't nice

W O W hell no, I'm rockin a pink ascot that's totally not the same thing and 10 times cooler anyway /z-snap

So should we say they know of each other in passing prior to really getting under each other's skin at the upcoming part---i mean, at some point? Haruka kept too much to herself growing up for anything too pre-established, I think

Yeeeeah, that works! I actually scrounged up my app specifically in time so I could make it to the party HOW DID YOU KNOW

They could sorta know about each other, having maybe shared pleasantries but not much more and then, well, party.

I WILL SEE YOU THERE THEN you know, in the corner with more women than yours

no biggie

CURSES LOUDLY

I mean uh, no, he'll smile and be civil and nice and wow gosh you sure are beautiful /bats eyelashes

~~A MILLION WEEDLE CRAWLING DOWN HER SPINE~~

ARE YOU A BELOSSOM BECAUSE YOU'RE BE-UTIFUL.

AND ALSO THE SUN SPARKLES IN YOUR EYES.

wow that was legitimately horrible

i am so late but shhhhh

If Hans' Dad is part of the Council and such, I feel like sometime Arietta and Hans probably would have met since she was basically tamed by the people in the church and etc etc. If not Hans, then maybe she knows one of his brothers. arietta seems to be attached and enjoy the company of hearts of gold who are actually jerks so either works.

nnnnever too late shhhh

it'd actually be funny if she knew one of Hans' brothers and admired him but was like "oh, it's just Hans." that's some CR I'd totally love.

tho if she wants to be attached to Hans we should totally go for it. Hans is already play Master ~~Van~~ for Luke so the more children who think he's really nice, the better

maybe she's closer to one of Hans brothers because he actually helped her ~education~ a tad bit and likes Hans because she can go pester him about his brother. just like this guy isn't as special so i can totally get on his nerves.

Ohhh that sounds really cute, yeah. Baby bro Hans getting jealous as usual, probably like "ugh this girl gets more attention from them than I do" but of course he plays nice and takes all her pestering like the good guy he is

yeah hans how much of a fail are you when a wild little girl can get your brothers attention and you can't. ~~that icon makes me think that he's mentally saying he will cut you imo~~ But awesome, Hans will be Arietta's go-to man.

xcuse you, those brothers ignore him on purpose they're all big meanies ~~I love every one of his smiling icons because once you know, it's like "wow ur planning on killing me aren't u"~~ you can count on sort of!big bro Hans to keep an eye out for you, Arietta
