The Key of Envy Description

Trained by TimberWolf (timberwolfcanada@hotmail.com)



Name: Benjamin

Age: 26

Appearance: Benjamin has wide violet eyes, which seem to take up most of his slender, youthful face. He has a smooth, honeyed skin tone with a smattering of pale, barely visible freckles over the bridge of his nose. He has small, almost delicate features. His hair is long, mid-back in length. Primarily indigo in colour, it ranges under the sunlight from the deepest royal blue, to a bright shining violet. Physically, Benjamin has a slender, long limbed body, pre-pubescent in appearance, including having no body hair at all.

Distinguishing Features/Markings: Benjamin has been surgically altered. Upon his arrival at the Palace, his testicles were removed, in order that he would retain his beautiful, youthful appearance. Benjamin's people come from a small, isolated country, Wakdlsern. After puberty, the men tend to grow very stocky and heavily muscled. They develop a hunched back and very prominent forehead ridges, and become very hirsute. Benjamin will never attain that adult male appearance. He also has no body adornments, no piercings, no tattoos, as these are signs of adulthood among his people.

Clothes: Unless he is with a Master, Benjamin is not permitted clothing. Too often in the past he has erupted into a jealous rage, comparing his own attire to other, more elaborately decorated Keys and ending up tearing his entire wardrobe to shreds. When Benjamin is entertaining a Master, it is left to that Master's discretion whether or not he will be clothed.

Personality: Benjamin's demeanour tends to swing between two extremes. Quiet, somewhat sad contemplation, and wild, jealous rages, tantrums basically. He has never really adjusted to his new life at the Palace, and tends to dwell on all he's lost, rather than anything he may have gained. He's also developed a deeply ingrained sense of inadequacy. Though his physical form is the ideal of many of the Masters who come to the Palace seeking a Key, he continually compares himself to the tall, well-muscled men who enter his room, knowing he will never be like them.

History: Before his life at the Palace, Benjamin was Heir to the Throne of Wakdlsern. Then his Mother, the Queen remarried to the Royal High Advisor, who orchestrated an elaborate plot to see Benjamin kidnapped and sold to the Palace, to ensure his own rule and succession. With Benjamin gone, the High Advisor's own children will be the new Heirs. At the moment that Benjamin was altered, it became too late for thoughts of rescue and return. Even if Benjamin were ever found, altered as he is to be a perpetual child, he cannot rule, nor is he capable any longer of producing an Heir of his own. The Royal High Advisor would rule in his stead.

Environment: Benjamin's room is small, tower room, and relatively unadorned. The Palace staff has learned that any breakables left in his room will get broken; it is only a matter of time.

He has a large bed, which takes up half of the floor space itself, and a small table, with two sturdy chairs. There is also a pair of wrought iron doors, leading out onto a small balcony, completely enclosed with wrought iron bars. The balcony actually extends into a part of the Lust Key's aviary. Benjamin spends much of his free time on that balcony, wistfully watching Caleb and his birds in their relative freedom of flight.
