Claude is a former crown prince and the half-brother of Prince Cedric. He's known as the reincarnation of a demon king—marked by distinctive red eyes and overwhelming power that makes him legendary among monsters, who treat him with reverence. His emotional state literally affects the world around him; his moods can shift the weather or cause flowers to wilt and bloom at will.
Growing up, Claude survived multiple assassination attempts, though the monsters who loved him always intervened to protect him. But when he turned 10, the royal family forced him to abdicate from the line of succession. The court feared his power too much, and persecution from those threatened by him left no real choice. He was exiled from the royal castle to an abandoned one, effectively removed from court life and the kingdom's center of power.
