Prince Regal starts as Verity's ambitious supporting brother, his sturdy frame and Farseer looks masking ruthless hunger for the throne. Wasting to a gaunt shadow from excessive Skilling—bone-aches, poor appetite—he briefly regains vitality through marriage, only to slapped by Verity and end as trilogy's chief antagonist, his Skill-ravaged body fleeing into exile amid rock dust and betrayal. His arc from princely rival to usurping king defines the Farseer court's poisonous core.
Description
A young adult man with fine brown hair, carefully arranged in curls, and beardless cheeks. His jaw, eyelid fold, and lower lip bear the Farseer family resemblance; his features are described as fine and aristocratic. He favors lavish, richly cut clothing in bright colors, including scarlet and gold, with lace, silk, rings, earrings, and other ornament. His eyes are described as dark. His expression often turns sullen or venomous.
