Charles Rex Posted July 15, 2015 Author Share Posted July 15, 2015 Edward de Courtenay Full Name: Edward de Courtenay Nationality: English Title: Earl of Avon (courtesy) Estate Name: Age: 28 Gender: Male Eye Color: Hazel Hair Color: Dark Brown Marital Status: Single Residence in London: Avon Place at St. James Square Personality & Physical Attributes Edward is tall, standing at 6’1 and blessed with classically handsome looks. His dark hair naturally hangs down to his shoulders. With hooded hazel eyes, a fine aquiline nose and thin lips he often looks serious. Personality Edward is generally rather serious and brooding. A stoic individual, more likely to observe from the sidelines with hands clasped behind his back then leading everyone else in merriment. Background With his father, the Marquess of Sherborne, gravely ill, Edward expects to inherit his title in the near future. His two younger siblings, Alice and Francis, have now joined him at court. Francis, over a horrible scandal, married his cousin Sophie Blount, the sister of Charles Blount. Edward has need of a wife to ensure his succession. At the beginning of 1676 he was promoted to the of Master of the King's Horse in the Privy Council. Edward is a renowned art collector and rumour has it his recent rise has much to do with his tireless work towards seeing the lost art collection of Charles I once more gathered together for Charles II. With such an avid interest in art it naturally follows that he is close friends with the famed artist Peter Lely. Residence When in London, Edward resides with his sister Alice in Avon Place located on St. James Square. His younger brother Francis has moved into an independent townhouse with his wife. Cousin of Charles Blount. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
