History Characters / LongLiveTheQueen

* SailorSenshiSendUp: She's a ButchLesbian AloofAlly with the power to shoot energy blades from her sword, or to shake the world -- all traits taken from [[Franchise/SailorMoon Sailor Uranus]].

* WellDoneSonGuy: If a skilled Elodie manages to talk things out with Briony, she'll learn that she wants to find the lost treasure to get her parents' attention; they've been distant with her for the past few years and don't even let her come home from school. [[spoiler:The reason they're keeping her away from home is to protect her from some disturbing family secrets.]]

* WouldntHurtAChild: [[spoiler:He claims this nearly word-for-word if Elodie questions him about Adair's assassination. Whether or not Talarist is telling the ''truth'' is up for debate, given all the circumstantial evidence showing how much he stands to gain from Adair's death. It also doesn't help his case that this assassination doesn't happen if Talarist is engaged to Elodie.]]

* BigBad: [[spoiler:Lucille wants to eliminate all immediate heirs to the throne and make Charlotte the queen so that they can rule together. Thus, Lucille is responsible for numerous attempts on Elodie's life: the snake in the garden, one of the assassins at the parade, the bandits who attack the carriage, and the poisoned chocolates. Even if Elodie survives all this, if circumstances align, Lucille will poison her to make her barren. Notably, though, Lucille can be confronted halfway through the game, either killed right on the spot or made into an ally (which stops unprovoked attempts on Elodie's life, though she doesn't seem to have given up completely on having Charlotte become queen). If Elodie has recruited Sabine as spy, she can have Lucille (and/or her whole family) assassinated late into the game.]]

* HeroicSacrifice: If Elodie isn't a Lumen and can't find another way to deal with [[spoiler:Togami]], Joslyn will [[spoiler:activate his own Lumen crystal to]] take her place in the duel -- and he will almost always be killed doing so. Even in the rare circumstance he made preparations for the battle and can defeat Togami, he'll be left severely impaired physically and mentally, with memory loss and the risk of people trying to take advantage of him to gain status.

* PuppetKing: He's theoretically the regent king of Nova until Elodie comes of age, but in practice he only really flexes his authority over her to keep her Lumen powers out of her hands and otherwise defers to her in all judgements.
* PushoverParents: Due to being drowned in grief, he lets Elodie do whatever she wants (even become a budding [[TheCaligula Caligula]]). The only exception is his attempts to prevent her from getting her Lumen crystal.

* SinsOfOurFathers: A potential end to her plotline if [[spoiler:Elodie finds out her mother has tried to assassinate her. This can result in Charlotte being banished from Nova or put to the sword along with the entire Mervan ducal family.]]

* SinsOfOurFathers: A potential end to her plotline if [[spoiler:Elodie finds out her mother has tried to assassinate her. This can result in Charlotte being put to the sword along with the entire Mervan ducal family.]]

* PuppetQueen: [[spoiler:Based on Sabine's investigation, it is implied that once Lucille's EvilPlan to elevate Charlotte as Nova's Queen suceeded, Charlotte will be little more than a figurehead for her mother.]]

* YouKilledMyMother: She'll be terrified of and avoid Elodie at a party if the latter accidentally killed Lucille in self-defense (much to Elodie's sadness and regret). The epilogue will have them eventually mend their friendship due to deciphering Lucille's journal proving that her [[BitchInSheepsClothing late mother]] planned not only to kill Elodie, but her husband and Charlotte's father Laurent as well. Unless either of them gets eaten by the kraken, that is.

* AgeGapRomance: [[spoiler:If Elodie knows that Ignatius is single and tries to pursue him, he's quite unsettled at the idea of a girl younger than his own daughter proposing to him (at thirty-eight, he's the oldest of her named prospects). The fact that she's the one who gave him a title means that he doesn't want to reject her openly, and he agrees to spend time with her so long as she doesn't make any advances. Under certain circumstances, he and Elodie actually do end up married, much to Briony's complete disgust. Despite of Briony's disapproval however, their marriage is rather [[MarryForLove a happy and loving one.]]]]

* SorcerousOverlord: A possible ending for Elodie if she's a cruel Lumen. It's especially apparent if she does things like [[spoiler:ritually sacrifice her cousin to a kraken that she summoned with her ''own'' magic]] or crush a commoner rebellion by showing off her magic, potentially burning many citizens.

* HasTwoMommies: [[spoiler:If Briony is alive and her aunt Julianna has married Selene, she'll be adopted as the heir of both Ursul and Julianna's crystal.]]

* FieryRedhead: He's rather infamous among the nobles for his temper, his portrait is perpetually scowling, and his two appearances in-game have him baying for the blood of someone he believes has harmed his family.

* TheRunaway: Unless talked out of it, Briony will ditch her escorts at Sudbury so that she can make a journey into the Old Forest, either running off to an unknown area or stopping temporarily at the castle with Elodie's help. It initially seems like the Attention-Seeking variant, but pulling at just the right thread reveals that it's born from feelings of abandonment from her ParentalNeglect. [[spoiler:It's also horrifically deconstructed: Briony will die in the Old Forest unless Elodie can help her escape, stop her from going, or she got trapped during the civil war. Her death will eventually have devastating effects on her mother and her uncle. There's also the chance that Elodie goes with her and they ''both'' get killed by the monsters.]]

* [[YouKilledMyFather You Killed My Family]]: If [[spoiler:Briony dies at all]] or [[spoiler:Arisse is executed after the civil war]], he will [[spoiler:challenge Elodie to a duel to the death at the tournament, and if this is either avoided or he survives without being jailed, he'll also try to kill her at their wedding if she proposes to him. Kevan will blame Elodie for Briony's death even if she has little to do with her decision to go to the Old Forest, up to and including having ''no idea whatsoever'' where Briony even ran off to.]] Subverted in one case, though: [[spoiler:If Arisse is quietly assassinated, ''Kevan'' isn't the one who realizes Elodie's at fault.]]
