William Daniel Stryker
[/center]Father of Nicholas and Lily Stryker. Husband to Charlotte Stryker. Preferred to be called Daniel. A nobleman born on the Isle of Myth. There was not anything that Daniel was not privileged to and yet Daniel worked hard his whole life to earn the title his father passed to him as well as rise through the ranks of the military. He even passed the tradition of noble marriage when he met and fell in love with a castle servant, Charlotte Swan. Daniel's life was ended along with his wife's in a carriage that was racing along the road, tipped and fell down the mountain side. Not even the driver made it out alive.
Charlotte Swan Stryker
[/center]At seventeen she settled into a Kingdom as a servant. There she met, fell in love with, and married William Daniel Stryker. A year later, while racing home from a celebration, Charlotte birthed their first child, a son they named Nicholas. Ten years would pass in blissful peace for the family when Charlotte would bring into the world, her second child, a girl they named Lilly. Unknown to even Daniel, Charlotte carried with her royal blood and this was event on the cusp of her death, for Nicholas and Lily found out their mother was in fact, or had been, heir to the Athelia thorn of which she was born and with her death, this now meant, if Nicholas wanted it, he would be King of Athelia with Lily as princess.
Lily Stryker
[/center]Lily was a kind and gentle soul and the apple of her families eye. Especially her brother who adored her above all others. She was the prime example of a lady, always prime and proper and never had she showed a dislike for her status as a noblewoman, or a nobleman's daughter. Soft spoken, gentle and kind, she was intelligent and beautiful but when her fathers old crappy friend asked for her hand in marriage and her father accepted, Lily ran away. Suffering a head injury, her memory was lost and a nasty noble used her as his daughter to try and further his advances in his own Kingdom when Lily landed there sans any memory. It wasn't until her wedding day that things took a turn, Nicholas showed up and with his face, she remembered. Her wedding was called off and she left with her brother for the land of their mothers lineage. Athelia. There she was as much a beloved princess as she was a noblewoman in Myth until during the war that ravaged Athelia brought with it an unknown and unnamed illness that took her life.
Jadrien Stryker is the son of Nicholas Stryker and his beloved late wife, So'ren Athquia Stryker. He was born in the lands of his fathers and his grandmother, the Kingdom of Athelia where his father ruled for a short time. All of his five years though he has traveled with his father from place to place listening to fairytales of his father and forever wandering if those tales were of his fathers life. The tales he loved the most were of the mother he never got to know. Even now the ten year old wears about his neck a gold chain and his mothers wedding ring.
Gemma Stryker[/center]
New family member. When Jadrien was found in a workhouse in London, he would not leave Gemma behind. When the child arrived with Jadrien back to Skye. Nicholas remembered the mother she had lost as one of the ladies of his court. A wealth of knowledge and a bright child. Nicholas and Shaden love and admire this little girl as if she were their own.
Solara and Luna Stryker
It would be a long story to explain the twins conception and birth. It was an infidelity...but that does not mean Nicholas loves his daughters any less, even his wife Shaden who forgave him his sin, loves the twin girls who are as different as night and day.
Scottland Stryker
A second son for Nicholas and a first child for the couple. He is a beloved newborn son his wife never thought they would have and the blessing Nicholas has prayed for to unite them since meeting his wife.
