'''Princess Anne Caroline''' was born on the 5th of Horen’s calling of the year 1789 of the First Age. Five years prior to her birth, her paternal grandmother Anne I and her paternal grandfather, [[Joseph II, Holy Orenian Emperor|Joseph II]] have ascended to the throne.  
+
'''Philip Michael''' was born the first child and heir-apparent of Viscount Simon Casimir and his wife, Princess Anne Caroline Novellen, on the first of Tobias' Bounty, 1809 (the equivalent of Second Era 13). Via his mother, he is a grandson of [[Prince Philip, Duke of Crestfall| Emperor Philip II]], which elevated his status as an heir and marriageable bachelor for the duration of his teenage years.
−
Anne and the late Empress are said to have shared a close bond, from Anne Caroline’s birth to [[Anne I, Holy Orenian Empress|Anne I’s]] death. The princess shared a lot of her late grandmother’s features, starting from the typical Novellen nose to the unique shade of red hair.
 
  
−
In her early childhood, the young imperial was often seen following around multiple people she deemed important, one of them being the Empress herself, her father and multiple [[Imperial State Army]] soldiers. She reportedly was close to her older and younger sister, the Princesses Josephine Augusta of Crestfall and Helen Antonia of Crestfall.

From birth, Philip was blessed with a curiosity in all matters of history, battle and law beyond his ken, and was complimented as a prodigy-to-be by many a person who met him. Thus, his parents assigned him with various tutors upon his 5th birthday, leading to the development of a sharp wit and intelligence in the boy. However, his interests were not singularly on education, as he longed to be like the great militant men he'd read about in the scrolls padding the Imperial Helen Antonia Library, a place he frequented. His role models included Emperors [[Aurelius I, Emperor of Man|Aurelius]] and [[Peter III, Holy Orenian Emperor|Peter III]]. This dream of his came to fruition when his parents announced that near the end of his 12th year he'd be boarded off to the [[Providence|Capital of the Empire]] to join the Imperial State Army, where he'd be assigned immediately as a Cadet due to his noble birth. His entrance to Providence was a shining light for the boy as he quickly created a bounty of close friendships with his fellow youths by attending many balls and congregations. At one such ball, he'd acquaint himself with the Holy Dame of the Church, Helena Novellen, who he would come to greatly admire, eventually asking to be placed under her as a squire. The man had successfully become Holy Knight in the proceedings years, and married outstandingly to the then Madame of Savoie, Claude. He briefly held the title of Viscount Provins, before abdicating all of his titles and taking on the vestments of God. Little is known further in his life, except notes of recorded history.

Her education was overseen by multiple court tutors - though one has been recorded to say that the princess was a rather slow and stubborn student. According to multiple sources, she would much rather spend her free time painting and climbing rooftops. Nevertheless, through hard work and dedication, she later became a licensed medic at the age of sixteen summers.

Philip Michael Pruvia, or simply Philip, was the third Viscount of Provins as firstborn son to Viscount Simon. He was an ensign in the Imperial State Army and a ward to Holy Dame Helena Novellen, becoming a Holy Knight after the end of the wardship. After his father's denouncement in 1838 after he was suspected of harboring relations to the Azdrazi, Philip became Viscount of Provins, abdicating 6 years later unto his daughter to become a member of the priesthood. The remaining years of his life were not of huge note, except for him founding the Orenian Coterie, which later evolved in the Adriatic Court, a fundamental institution of Royal Oren.

Early years

Philip Michael was born the first child and heir-apparent of Viscount Simon Casimir and his wife, Princess Anne Caroline Novellen, on the first of Tobias' Bounty, 1809 (the equivalent of Second Era 13). Via his mother, he is a grandson of Emperor Philip II, which elevated his status as an heir and marriageable bachelor for the duration of his teenage years.

Philip as Heir to Provins, c.1825.

From birth, Philip was blessed with a curiosity in all matters of history, battle and law beyond his ken, and was complimented as a prodigy-to-be by many a person who met him. Thus, his parents assigned him with various tutors upon his 5th birthday, leading to the development of a sharp wit and intelligence in the boy. However, his interests were not singularly on education, as he longed to be like the great militant men he'd read about in the scrolls padding the Imperial Helen Antonia Library, a place he frequented. His role models included Emperors Aurelius and Peter III. This dream of his came to fruition when his parents announced that near the end of his 12th year he'd be boarded off to the Capital of the Empire to join the Imperial State Army, where he'd be assigned immediately as a Cadet due to his noble birth. His entrance to Providence was a shining light for the boy as he quickly created a bounty of close friendships with his fellow youths by attending many balls and congregations.

He briefly held the title of Viscount Provins, before abdicating all of his titles and taking on the vestments of God. Little is known further in his life, except notes of recorded history.

Military Career

Philip Michael enlisted into the Imperial State Army near the end of the Tenth Nordling War. Due to his most noble lineage the boy started as a Cadet, before quickly being promoted to Ensign, leading to his induction into the fourth brigade. He in concurrent abdicated his title, and asked to be freed from the Imperial State Army, ending his military career.
