Additional Description: Optional

Aphelios is a noble and kind stallion that enjoys the presence of others, and while he may not always have a lot to say, he is content with being a good listener. Aphelios can appear rather stoic at times, not wanting to bother others with his own hardships and pain, never wanting to be a burden. When facing danger and injustice, he isn't one to shy away, facing whatever comes his way head first, especially if it's to help or save another. When he's not out showing face and pleasing the crowds, Aphelios is a rather private stallion. He likes the quiet calm and having his own space to recharge his batteries, staying hidden till only when he wants to show himself. Not many get to know him well, the real Aphelios, cause while he is a gentle giant that seems cool, calm and collected. In private he is a lot more joyous, goofy and open, willing to share his thoughts and feelings with those he truly trusts, and a lot more playful and loving in nature.

Aphelios had been born to the late High King and Queen of the East, first born son, elder brother to Alune. His parents and tutors had been preparing him for the role of High King of the East his whole life, and he had taken the idea of his future responsibility with humility. He studied hard and made sure he did his utmost best to impress his parents and his future subjects. This doesn't go to say that the young prince didn't get to go out and have fun with other foals, and has made many friends but only a few close ones. Mnemosyne, Rayne and Oriole were his closest friends, often wandering between each others kingdoms, that all changed when Rayne suddenly refused to leave her own kingdom, suddenly becoming distrusting of others and ultimately the young ones lost contact. Aphelios found out Oriole had been cruel to her and so Leo cut ties with him, not wanting to be associated with such a boy. At the age of 3 years, Aphelios learnt of who he will be marrying, at first he dreaded the idea of not knowing his future bride and not having the chance to meet her. That was until he learnt of her name, only to find out his bride to be is none other than his good friend, Mnemosyne. It had made him happy knowing that his Queen to be is someone he knows and trusted, he now only hoped that love will blossom between them or that they can remain mutual rulers for their people. At the age of four and with the untimely passing of both his parents, Aphelios stepped up to the position he was born and raised for, while taking on the added responsibility of looking after his little sister. Sadly they didn't live to see the day their son would marry, yet Aphelios was still eager to see his new Queen arrive and soon invite their kingdom to their ceremony.
