​
Henry II
(This role has been precast)
Male, late 40s–50s. King of England. Vigorous, domineering, witty, and manipulative. Still strong and commanding, though aging. Loves both power and his family in his own twisted way.
Eleanor of Aquitaine
(This role has been precast)
Female, mid-50s–60s. Queen of England, currently imprisoned but released for Christmas. Intelligent, regal, and sharp-tongued. Fierce rival and sometime partner to Henry. Cunning and politically shrewd.
Richard the Lionheart
Male, mid-20s - 30s. Eldest surviving son of Henry and Eleanor. Soldierly, disciplined, and hot-tempered. A proven warrior with a strong sense of duty, though emotionally complex.
Geoffrey
Male, early–mid 20s. Middle son. Schemer and strategist, bitter about being overlooked. Highly intelligent, sarcastic, and manipulative—perhaps the most dangerous of Henry’s sons.
John
Male, late teens-mid-20s. Youngest son. Spoiled, immature, petulant, and somewhat foolish, though Henry dotes on him. The weakest of the three brothers but still a player in the struggle for succession.
Philip II (King of France)
Male, late teens–early 20s. King of France. Young, ambitious, and politically astute beyond his years. Wary of Henry but determined to assert himself as a ruler.
Alais Capet
Female, late teens–early 20s. French princess betrothed to Richard but Henry’s mistress. Kind-hearted and naïve, yet capable of honesty that cuts through the family’s games. Torn between love and political necessity.​
