Meet Pandion Alexander, the younger brother of Peregrine, the heir to their father's throne. Like Peregrine, Pandion is well-bred, well-educated and an excellent warrior. Both of them are arrogant, are quick-to-anger, extremely confident and have fragile, over-inflated ego's. But while Peregrine has a heart of gold under his egocentric exterior. Peregrine does the right thing in the end and doesn't have the heart to crush spiders under the heel of his boot. Pandion, on the other hand, sees his brother's soft-hearted interior as his weakness and has the trait of unbridled cruelty. Pandion sees his merciless ways as the difference between him getting the throne and Peregrine getting it. Pandion is addicted to power and loves being in charge and having authority, having fought for attention his entire life.
After months of careful planning, Pandion slaughtered their father, King Falcon in his bed and Pandion went after Peregrine next, but his brother was too quick and the two fought in his bed chambers. Peregrine knocked Pandion's sword out of his hand and used a pair of fire tongs to brand his Peregrine on his left shoulder. When he called in the guards, Peregrine managed to jump out of the window and jump into the moat and sneak of the castle premises, but Pandion had him captured and arrested in hours, as well as framing him for the murder of their father. He had his execution ordered, but unknown to him, their mother switched Peregrine with another man and sent him to Riasglach, and the innocent man died in his stead. This is still unknown to Pandion, who was crowned King of Eacharnach.
He tried to kill their other brother, Kestrel, but the boy was able to escape and hasn't been heard from since. He has allowed their sister, Trochilinae, under close watch and is in the process of marrying her off to the highest bidder. He had always been the favorite child of their mother, Danainae, who aided him in the murder of his father. She had never loved Falcon, even though she had only been the daughter of a knight and not royalty herself. He had fallen in love with her and demanded that they be married. She had a lover of her own, but Falcon had him murdered so he could have the beautiful Danainae and she didn't fall in love until her son Pandion was a teenager and they began their incestuous relationship. She is now pregnant with his child and the blame has fallen on Peregrine, and Pandion has propagated the rumor that Peregrine is the "Oedipus Prince" -- as local legend has it that he killed his father while he was the lover of his mother, while really Pandion did these things.
AGE: 18-20 PLAY-BY: I would prefer Alex Pettyfer, but if you have someone else in mind, go ahead and run him by me (Peregrine's PB is Aaron Tveit, for reference). He should be a little bit bigger, physically, than his brother and have more "conventional" sex appeal than Peregrine does. RELATIONSHIPS: Peregrine and Pandion have a complicated relationship, mostly rooted in jealousy, and a lifetime of quarreling. They are very similar in personality, and thus, they have been in constant competition. Pandion has an even younger brother, Kestrel and a sister, Trochilinae, whom he sees as little more than a pawn. He also has a brother, Aves, who died before he was born. It is up to you whether or not Pandion actually loves his mother, uses her for sex or continues his incestuous relationship with her so he can reap the political benefits. Pandion is probably NOT faithful to Danainae. IMPORTANT INFO: Pandion does not see himself as evil and he believes that he is in the right and that he ridding Eacharnach of the misguided rule of his father and is doing this for his people. His middle name is Haliaetus (Pandion Haliaetus is "Osprey" because Falcon had a thing for naming his sons bird-related names).

Very interested... I'd love to pick him up! Hopefully I'm not too bad for the role but I understand if you want someone else to play him I don't what it is about hot English villains that I like... must be the accent.
