Prince Cuthbert

Prince Cuthbert

King Caradoc chose the English name Cuthbert as a good omen because it means famous. His mother chose the name Hakan which means "high and noble son" in her Scandinavian language.

NICKNAMES:

Jane and her friends have a great many nicknames for Cuthbert, none of them flattering and all of them too rude to be set to paper.

JOB DESCRIPTION:

He is the heir to the throne of Kippernium. His current job is to be a good student tutored in all the skills befitting a future king.

CUTHBERTS HISTORY:

Cuthbert was spoiled from the day he came grumbling into the world. He was a sickly child and had a lot of attention from both his parents and from the entire court staff. He enjoyed being the center of so much affection and even suffered wearing pretty clothes because it pleased his mother. Life started to turn sour the day his sister was born and he had to share all that love and devotion with Lavinia.

FAVORITE FOOD:

Anything but vegetables.

AMBITION:

Most of Cuthberts ambitions are short sighted. They focus on what he can get every day to make life more bearable. So his ambitions are to avoid work, avoid study, and find food. But deep down he harbors one ambition which is stronger than all of these, an ambition he has no idea even exists…He wants his parents to be proud of him.

FAVORITE SONG:

His favourite song is "The ballad Of Cuthberts Cat." Jester wrote it for him when the Prince had a little kitten he was very fond of. Unfortunately for the Prince, the kitten was not so fond of her royal master and set off to find a better home for herself in the village. Now all Cuthbert has left is the ballad and a nagging suspicion that the cat was teaching him a lesson.

FAVORITE PASTIMES:

Annoying his sister.
