Character Profile
Appearance
Ragnar stands tall at a powerful 6'0, although most people assume he's taller, and he weighs around 197lbs. His build is proportional to his height and weight, and most of his height comes from his legs. He has long legs, however, he also has a medium-length waist as well. It is also clear that he is athletic, as he spent most of his childhood sword fighting and training with the soldiers. Although he does not have as much free time, he still trains and runs to remain in shape He has a solid yet not bulky frame, as he is built for explosiveness and stamina, with powerful shoulders and chest. Yet, his strongest muscles are around his forearms, built from years of swordfighting for his wrists and core for grip strength, powerful wrist-flick based moves, and core stability. His lower body is not as powerful, but he always tries to work on them as well to maintain proportionality and good balance for agility. He is ambidextrous, however more often writes with his right hand.
Ragnar has slightly curly jet black hair that he keeps styled in a lower taper fade, with short, smooth sides that fade near the ears and neck, and also has thick curls left a little longer at the top. When he is in public, he keeps it very neat and put together. However, when he is in the privacy of his own home, it is often messy from running his hand through it a lot. His eyes are a striking ice blue that are reminiscent of the winter sky, and when he is angry or intimidating, they are cold; almost cutting blue like frozen steel. However, on the very rare occasion, when he is truly happy or showing his softer size, those ice blue eyes seem to soften to a more gentle blue that brightens. Most often they have this playful gleam in his eyes. That paired with his charming smile has swooned many women and the media many times. Ragnar's skin is a fair olive-tone, slightly earthy sun-warmed from many summers spent on the beach. He also seems to be evenly tanned across his entire body, possibly from nude sunbathing. He prefers to remain almost clean-shaven, most often sporting a shadow of a stubble, just enough to add definition to his face.
One of the most distinguishing features of Ragnar are the freckles on his face, which are hard to see unless the sun hits them just right. The freckles are lightly smattered across his cheekbones and he also sports a slight dimple in his right cheek when he is genuinely smiling. Ragnar has a fair share of scars across his body, most of them from years of sword fighting. There is one on his jaw from a fight gone too far, a thin scar that stretches from under his jaw towards his chin. There are also a lot of other smaller scars from years playing outside as a child. Some from being thrown from a horse or from doing the stupid, but fun things as a child while playing outside.
He is always found wearing a silver necklace with a small silver cross on it, which is a family heirloom that he is incredibly fond of. In royal/formal events/occasions he is most often found in a suit. Typically a black or grey one, as he prefers dark colors over bright colors. Occasionally one can find him in different colors of suits, but most often in black. They are typically dark-colored tailored, slim-fit suits with a white dress shirt. He keeps the suit jacket unbuttoned most of the time, and leaves the first few buttons of the white dress shirt unbuttoned to reveal a little bit of his muscled chest. He also wears incredibly nice dress shoes as well, typically black or brown, whatever color best pairs with his suit. Whenever he is not in the suit jacket, he rolls the sleeves of the dress shirt up to reveal his forearms.
Whenever he is in privacy, he likes casual wear. Usually just a t-shirt with some sweats or joggers. Whenever he has to go to a formal event, but isn't required to wear a suit, he opts for nice denim jeans paired with a nice shirt like a tailored button up shirt. Sometimes he doesn’t bother with keeping his hair neat, as it is often windblown.
Tonal/Voice
Ragnar's voice is slightly deep with a tint of smoothness and richness. Most of the time, he can be quite calm and authoritative when speaking. However, he does like to play around. He is often sarcastic and teasing, causing a slight lift to his voice. Furthermore, whenever he is excited, he can talk quite fast. His voice deepens when he is angry.
Personality
As a royal with a lot of expectations, Ragnar has three distinct personalities. His royal one, he is always quite calm and collected, and is very hard to rattle. People often work very hard to rattle him, however, that has never worked. In terms of keeping himself and his family life very secret, he is very professional, thoughtful, and careful about that. However, there is a little bit of a rebellious side that shines. Therefore, he is not always as polite and respectful as he should be. In fact, he can be quite playful and sarcastic, he likes to play tricks and mess with people as well.
Ragnar has what others have called his “rebellious” side, where he does everything he can within reason to fight against the strict royal expectations set upon him. He is quite sarcastic, and can say things he probably shouldn’t. He will play tricks and pranks, and has a bad habit of slipping away from his guards if he can. He can be considered bubbly and sunshine in this persona, but it is mostly a shield to protect himself and to give himself as much freedom as he can take. This has become his primary one, and has become even more prominent following the sudden shift within his family. His older brother is not a reliable future king (not because he is a bad person or sketchy), and so his father has turned his attention onto him.
Ragnar does have a softer side, however, one that the public never gets to see as they are like vultures. This side is usually only for close friends and family, however has become pretty dormant, and this side of him makes him seem much more approachable and likable. He is loyal to a fault to those that he loves and is incredibly protective over them. Even though his relationship with his father is strained (due to royal pressures), he still is fiercely protective and loyal to his entire family and loves them deeply. He may argue and fight, and say things about his father, but deep down there are very few things he wouldn’t do for his father.
Ragnar is much more emotionally vulnerable and is more likely to express himself when this softer side is visible. His facial expressions and eyes are often much kinder and softer when this soft side of him shows. His smile and laughter becomes more common and more genuine.. He is very family-oriented and is considered quite nurturing and compassionate. Although he does still struggle to express himself fully, he is more likely to only to those he considers close friends and family. His love language is touch, which is ironic since he usually hates physical contact with people who are not his family. The last romantic relationship he was in, he was very touchy, not in a sexual way. He just liked holding hands, resting a hand on the knee, cuddling, things like that.
Overall, Ragnar is very resilient and persistent and does not give up easily. He is also uncanningly intelligent and strategic, a very beneficial trait as a royal. He is also very observant and his instincts are highly developed. Ragnar has incredible leadership skills, which has been showcased as Prince, despite his rebellious nature.
Weaknesses and Flaws
Ragnar also has his fair share of weaknesses and flaws. He is a bad overthinker and can drown in it. Ragnar worries about future as he does not know where it is going and it often stresses him out way too much. He also has a bad habit of bottling things up, and over certain things, finds it that it is very hard for him to open up emotionally. It is one reason that he has that “rebellious” personality that he keeps as his most featured one. He hates opening up, so he uses sarcasm and jokes to protect himself.
Ragnar also suffers from severe anxiety, that he has learned how to manage and hide. One of his biggest problems is the stress and pressure his father is putting onto him. He worries about what the nobles of his kingdom and royals of other kingdoms think. He knows that they will tear him apart for any mistake that he makes, and that pushes him to work hard. He sets unnaturally high standards for himself, and beats himself up when he is unable to achieve them. Whenever he suffers from anxiety and is out of the eyes of the public, he spirals. However, when in public, it is much harder to tell if he is having an anxiety attack. But key tells are his posture, he gets a little tenser. And his eyes almost seem to get colder, he keeps a hand in his pocket so that he can fidget with his hand and people can't notice. He also has a bad habit of isolating himself, especially during emotional turmoil. He is scared of losing people, which is why his close friends and family group is so small. He doesn't want to form emotional connections and risk losing somebody else.
Strengths
Ragnar's strengths involve mental resilience. Even though he can spiral and struggles with perfectionism and anxiety, he never lets it slow him down for long. He just bottles it up, shoves it away, and keeps on going. Which is not the healthiest method, however it has worked. In public, he can handle the pressure and criticism thrown at him, and it is incredibly hard to unnerve him.
Relationships
William Redmond
Father. Alive. William and Ragnar have a very interesting relationship. Deep down, the two hold a powerful love for each other. For most of his life, William and Ragnar actually got along fantasticly. However, recently, since William has turned to try to groom Ragnar as the future king, things have become strained.
Isla Redmond
Mother. Alive. Isla and Ragnar are pretty close, they have a typical mother-son bond. They love each other fiercely, and Ragnar is incredibly protective over his mother.
Henry Redmond
Older Brother. Alive. Henry and Ragnar's relationship is very strained at the moment. Henry is an incredible person, and Ragnar and him are the best of friends. They were always beside each other in their childhoods. However, recently, Henry has been refusing the role of future King. Henry no longer wants the burden and is doing everything he can to get out of it. Thus, the pressure is starting to turn onto Ragnar, who also does not want it. Leading to fights between the brothers.
Miscellaneous
Talents/Special Skills
Athlete: Despite the sudden pressure to become King, Ragnar still sword fights, trains with the soldiers, and runs when he can. It is a stress relief for him, so whenever he has free time, he does it as often as he can. Thus he is in pretty good shape.
Master Illusionist: Ragnar possesses an incredible sleight-of-hand, misdirection, and sense trickery. It is his most common way to play tricks and pranks on people.
Swordsman: Ragnar has been sword fighting since he was young, and though he never officially joined the army. He has many skills that a soldier has and trained alongside them for years.
Strengths
Confidence: He carries himself with a certain confidence that keeps him ahead. Although his confidence can get the better of him sometimes, he uses it to deal with nobles who try to undermine him at every step.
Loyalty: His loyalty is unwavering, making Ragnar a steadfast and trustworthy companion. There isn't anything that Ragnar wouldn't do for his close friends and family, and those he trusts.
Patience: Despite Ragnar’s interesting personality, one thing that always shines through is his patience. For most situations, he can be quite patient.
Weaknesses
Stubborn: His stubborn nature can be both a blessing and a curse. It fuels his determination, yet it can also hinder him from considering alternative perspectives sometimes. It can impede his growth and limit his ability to collaborate sometimes.
Introvert: He has been used far too many times just because he is a Prince, and thus his ability to free trust or want to make friends has lessened. Therefore, he kind of just stays to himself. Which is not all too helpful for important connections a King might need.
Quick Thinking: Although he is usually patient, sometimes his quick thinking can serve him well, however sometimes can cause hasty decisions. These usually come out the most in his personal life and can result in regrets or unintended consequences.
Organization/Perfectionist: He likes to be well organized and perfect, however, these can cause him incredible stress and anxiety.
