Jade: 1. She didn't come from a militant family. Joining the army made her the black sheep - something that made her want to be all the more determined to do her best. 2. When Greavheart left the army, she also left - for a while. It was only realising that she was happiest (as much as she could be) in the army that she returned and strove to get to the highest position possible - to prove to him and to her that not everyone dies in the army. 3. As Queen (Lady?) Jade, her temper gets into some messes - behind doors. In front of people, she is the image of calm, the image of cool and detached monarchy. Behind doors, she's just as violent, loud, and passionate that she was during the war. Graveheart plays a heavy part in internal diplomacy.
Graveheart: 1. He and Mica were raised by their mother - his dad was killed in a mining accident. It's why both he and Mica sought out another path, both out of sadness and a hope that they wouldn't die like their dad did. When Mica died, he went to mining, because he realised that everyone would die no matter what - he might as well do what he knew the best. 2. Jade was his OTL. He never dated after he left the army, never even slept with anyone else. Although he assumed that they would never date again, he didn't want to date anyone else either - although he was asked several times. 3. Graveheart meant it when he declared himself content with being the leader of the Alliance, and just that. He never strives to be ruler and enjoys not only helping Jade out, but loves the challenge of balancing the five planets' peace. For the first time, he's proud of what he does, because for once, there is no death directly related to it.
