Prince Christopher is third in line for the throne, allowing him a bit of leeway when it comes to responsibilities, but he still takes his position very seriously. He's always eager to learn new things, which comes in handy when he's tasked with joining an expedition into the Woods. Though he doesn't initially understand the poor's grievances with his family, he eventually does and tries to better their relationship. Much more interested in books than in the Woods, he has very little in the way of survival skills, being a scholar as opposed to a warrior like Gabriel or a leader like Cordelia. He cares very deeply for his friends and family, going as far as to trade his ability to feel emotional satisfaction to save the life of his younger sister Eleanor. This sacrifice alters his emotional state, leading him to be much colder and more closed off than before.
Stands very stiff and still, resting expression is a slightly concerned frown.
Alchemy, memorization, very fast reader.
To protect his younger siblings
Reading up on history to find out as much as he can about his kingdom's past, attempting alchemy and general experiments involving faery magic, reading in general.
Stubborn, rude, brash, reckless, cold, closed-off, overly serious. Seems emotionless.
Against the fae, believing them to be the root of all of his kingdom's problems. Much less anti-fae than Gabriel, however, and eventually comes around.
Sold his heart to the Fae, and is trapped in a state where he can only feel negative and neutral emotions.
Christopher is the middle child of King Phillip and Queen Julia Norwood, and initially takes his position very seriously until he realizes how corrupt the kingdom has become. When his sister Eleanor Norwood is poisoned by a courtier, he embarks on a journey to the faery realm with his herald and closest friend Arthur Nest, where the then-19 year old prince sells his heart to the Fae. Christopher returns to the palace and distances himself from his family and friends out of fear, and begins to practice alchemy to recapture some of that faery magic.

His sword, although he usually tries to diffuse situations verbally
Prince of Alchester, alchemist.
Not too heavily involved in court politics of his own will, he believes that one must be able to truly care to be in a political office. Less anti-Fae than his father and his brother Gabriel Norwood.
