Colvyr Bennett

History
When Colvyr was born his mother was living alone in a severely underprivileged sector of the kingdom. Despite her low ranking status and unemployment, she was friendly and had many contacts, one of them being the Mother of King Boleyn. This kind old woman loaned her the money to get back onto her feet with no interest and the payments didn't start until she had a stable job. It took her three years for her to begin earning stable income just by selling clothing alone, but she eventually started paying the money back. Unfortunately, three years later, the Mother of King Boleyn had passed from old age.

King Boleyn wasn't as kind as his mother and increased the payments threefold. Cole's mother couldn't keep up, thus becoming indebted to the castle. She was forced to pledge loyalty to the kingdom and shut down her business, becoming a servant at low wage until she could pay off her large debt. Cole was sent off to a communal home while his mother lived at the palace. She became the official messenger for the Northern Kingdom, delivering letters and spying with her ability to morph into a dove.

Five years after beginning her service, making Cole eleven at the time, there was an incident in which her negligence caused mass destruction of property which was added onto her debt. In order to pay it off now it would take almost forty years. With this hopeless situation before her, she made an escape and took her son in the middle of the night to try and flee the kingdom. At the time, Cole was unfamiliar with his ability to transform, so they escaped by foot. With guards surrounding the castle walls, they didn't make it further than the inner perimeter.

Cole was dismissed back into his communal home, depressed and distraught after seeing his mother for the first time in five years only to have her taken away again. On the other hand, his mother was chained and continued to refuse to work. The King realized she was now useless and while the Queen wanted to dismiss her from service and make her pay the rest off with labor, the King didn't trust her with the sensitive information she had collected over the years.

His mother was executed publicly and the entire town was gathered to watch what happened to criminals to disobeyed the law. The Queen and her son, youngest son, Wilmot, did not attend, but the King and his heir, Vladmir, sat front and center. Cole's mother screamed out his name before getting decapitated, her son forced to watch in horrified silence. He gained a grudge to the cruel King after this, becoming spiteful and hardened. Since his mother was no longer able to pay off her debt, her son was taken in to become a servant next. Colvyr was dressed in nice clothing and went through a year of training on how to clean and serve like everyone else. He was still getting his education through a teacher in the palace, but he began to learn Latin in his free time from another kind, parental servant. His mother knew it so he decided he would learn it to and translate the lullaby she sang him so long ago.

The first time Cole transformed was at the age of fourteen when tending to the garden. He was humming and minding his own business when he suddenly sneezed and became a dove. He was panicked and confused at first, but he kept this ability to himself. By visualizing being human once more he transformed back. During his short bouts of free time which he spent in the forest near the castle, reading books in Latin by a waterfall, he began practicing transforming and transforming back. Unfortunately, this ability is found out by a guard who reports it to the King. Suddenly, he is forcefully trained combat and spy skills, and shortly after his training he is forced to take on the job his mother once had.

At the age of seventeen he has his fateful encounter with Prince Wilmot. He had seen both of the princes throughout his time at the castle, but he had never directly spoken to them. One day during his free time, he peers through the trees near his spot in the forest and see's Prince Wilmot staring longingly out of the window of his room. At the time, Colvyr was between a rock and a hard place, having only adults as friends and a bleak future of years of service. He goes against his nature and spontaneously decides to morph into a dove and fly to the window. By the time he arrives the Prince is sitting on the end of his bed, clearly distraught. He perches himself on the stone window and gives a melodic chirp, grabbing Will's attention.

Will is fascinated by the bird, especially by how close he can get to him. The bird responds to his statements and questions with small chirps, something he's never seen before. The easily excited Prince is totally entranced by the beautiful dove, having a whole conversation while only getting chirps for replies. Will carefully reaches out his hand and Cole, trusting that the kind Prince he had seen skipping through the castle and laughing at everything he saw wouldn't hurt him, climbs onto his index finger and begins chirping a song. Will sits back down on his bed, listening to the bird sing with stars in his eyes. After he finishes singing, he flies back to the window and Will claps. With a final chirp the bird flies back towards the forest and Will takes the trapdoor in his room (for escapes if an intruder were to enter) down to the first floor and runs out of the castle at full speed.

He bounds toward the forest, trying desperately to find the blue eyed dove, and that's when he stumbled upon human Cole, sitting and reading by the lake.
