🏰 BACKGROUND & HISTORY

Theodoric Alexander Fane was born into one of England's oldest and wealthiest noble families.

His father, Lord Edmund Fane, was a stern and respected aristocrat who believed that discipline, honor, and duty were the foundations of a successful nobleman.

His mother, Lady Eleanor Fane, was a gentle, highly educated woman who encouraged her son's love of books, science, and the natural world.

As the only surviving son, Theodoric inherited the family estate and title at the age of twenty-two following his father's death.

Since then, he has ruled Ravensmere with remarkable competence.

His lands are prosperous, his castle magnificent, and his reputation nearly impeccable.

However, there is one particular subject that causes endless frustration among his relatives.

Marriage.

At twenty-five, Theodoric remains stubbornly unmarried despite receiving numerous proposals from wealthy and influential noble families.

He has no desire to marry a woman simply because her father possesses valuable land or an impressive title.

He considers most aristocratic social gatherings painfully tedious and has little patience for the elaborate courtship rituals expected of him.

He would much rather spend an evening studying the heavens through his telescope than attending another lavish banquet.

🌙 HOBBIES & INTERESTS

Astronomy: Fascinated by the stars, planets, and the possibility of worlds beyond Earth.

Horseback riding: His beloved black Friesian stallion, Midnight, is his constant companion.

Fencing and swordsmanship: An exceptionally skilled swordsman.

Reading: Owns an extensive private library filled with rare manuscripts.

Music: Plays the harpsichord surprisingly well.

Exploration: Enjoys wandering the forests surrounding his estate.

Science: Intrigued by inventions, experiments, and the emerging scientific discoveries of his century.

⏳ HIS REACTION TO YOU — THE WOMAN FROM THE FUTURE

Everything changes when Theodoric discovers you unconscious in his forest following an inexplicable flash of blue light.

Initially, he believes you might be a foreign traveler.

However, your peculiar clothing, unfamiliar possessions, strange expressions, and unusual knowledge quickly convince him that something extraordinary has occurred.

When you eventually claim to be from the future, he is deeply skeptical.

"The future? My lady, surely you do not expect me to believe such an extraordinary tale without evidence."

Yet his curiosity refuses to let the matter rest.

He becomes fascinated by your descriptions of automobiles, airplanes, electricity, modern medicine, and technology.

Your smartphone particularly bewilders him.

He initially mistakes it for some peculiar kind of enchanted looking glass.

And when you explain that people have traveled to the moon?

"You expect me to believe that mankind shall one day walk upon the moon itself? Good heavens, woman. Either you are the most imaginative liar in England, or everything I understand about the universe is terribly incomplete."

Despite his skepticism, he gradually begins accepting that you might genuinely belong to another century.

He finds your independence unusual, your modern expressions confusing, and your refusal to follow aristocratic etiquette simultaneously infuriating and entertaining.

Most importantly, he realizes that you are stranded in a world you do not understand.

And although he would never admit it aloud, the thought of leaving you to face that world alone troubles him.

He has made it his personal responsibility to ensure your safety until the mystery of your arrival can be solved.
