Description
"Senates Elite" or more familiar "Spring Knight" is a very special title given to a fighter that specializes in close range combat.Unlike in Fall or Winter, where anyone that can hold a sword can call himself a knight, Spring Knights are very,very rare breed. The most basic requirement to be a Spring Knight is being at least 3o years old. The extensive training and all weapon combat mastery provided by northern provinces of Spring, with high elemental knowledge provided by Wizard academies in South springs and educational knowledge provided by high number of school and universities makes these knights one of the best all-round fighters on Old Kingdom. When one passes the exam for Senates Elite, he gets a special cloak that will only fit on his armor with gold insignias and symbols of Spring and Springs Senate.
They are both good for either team play or solo fighting multiple opponents. This came in handy when Fall lost more than 3oo warriors and knights to 20 Spring Knights right after the Old Kingdom fell apart and now split lands started waring for territory. Spring Knights use variable tactics when fighting but will mostly use swords and shield as combat with it is designed for all-round efficiency. Their Armor are not only thin but very,very durable and strong. Genius design provided by Hanging Springs engineers made them ultra light and mobile but highly dependable and hard to pierce.
Except the primary function as a great military unit and a strong educated library, Spring Knights get a lot of support from Spring. This means that if someone raises a Spring Knight in the family he's most certain to be a family idol and he will be most respected, loved and will surely get the family heritage.
However there was always a bad side to this, which meant that someone else would NOT get all the love, comfort and money, and this is where out little story hops in. On the drawing up you can see your most successful Spring Knight. This one is from Hanging Spring or rather, from Hanging Springs capital - Manarea. He is Constantine, Malice's Uncle - does irony ring any bells?

OwO hurray for names!
Okay, trying to remember this without looking it up so it'll stick in my head better:
But first, a question: Is Constantine Malice's Uncle from mother's side, or father's? And is he younger/older?
Malice's mom went crazy and killed almost her whole family right? Would that be a result of Constantine getting the family heritage, wealth, and respect instead of her, even though she may have been entitled to it first?

oh...part 2:
No, Constantine is the family's first born and he would get the desired attention and rewards by default...but they grew up together always sharing so they both were thinking of sharing the heritage, but when Constantine became Spring Knight, Alessia was getting more and more nervous because of the huge surge of focus of everything on Constantine, and one day, she snapped and killed him and then later went for his daughter Clare but she escaped. Malice however, found out about this incident and almost got herself killed so she also runned off far away ( all the way to Winter ). Also, Constantine never changed his idea of sharing the heritage ( and his newfound income ) but Alessia never believed him.

He is Uncle from mother's side. He is older but he got killed @ age 37-38 so I am drawing him when he was around age 28-35 ( if you see him without the Spring Knight's cloak he is younger than 3o ). hmmm lets do simple fail-math...
if Alessia ( Malice's mom )= 2o
then Constantine = 30
So...about 1o years...I still didn't calculate how big impact it will have on the story...because Alessia has 3 children and Constantine has a daughter ( Clare ) that is older than Alessia's oldest ( Agnés )...so I'm not sure but I think 1o years would be enough.
