Arianette is extremely intelligent and educated, making her quite unusual for a woman. She's quick witted and has a sharp tongue, and she's not afraid to do whatever it takes to get what she wants. She's widely regarded as 'too smart for a woman', but no one would say that to her face for fear of what she would do to them.

History:
Childhood: Arianette was born to loving parents who pushed their daughter to succeed. She grew up taking numerous lessons, playing in the gardens, and watching her father rule over his duchy. In time, her mother became pregnant again, although both mother and child died during childbirth. After that incident, her father was never the same.
Teen years: Without the love of her mother, Arianette's father turned to drinking and gambling, leaving the house empty except for Arianette and the servants most of the time. She spent a lot of time alone, reading books and studying. She saw less and less of her father until one day her was found hanging from a noose in his study. Cold and resentful against both her father and the unborn child that had caused all of this, Arianette became the sole inheritor of her family's wealth.
Adulthood: Unmarried but influential, Arianette now has the title of Countess. She came to court in order to pursue the Prince and the status that she could gain from marrying him. She has no need for the money, but she seeks companionship in order to escape the lonely fortress that she has built around herself.

History
Childhood:
Addison does not know who her parents are. She and her twin brother, Charles, were abandoned as a child and an old woman found them and adopted her. This woman was poor but made sure Addie and Charlie had a very charming childhood. Although they could not have all their wants met, they were always loved.
Teen years:
Addie's adopted mother died when she was 12, leaving her and her brother to fend for themselves. They began to make music together in order to make money. She was found by a wealthy man who told her that he would give her room and board if they would sing to him every night. She agreed. While living with him, he started to get a little too close for comfort. He started inappropriately touching her and she could not say no, or she would lose her home. One night, he raped her and Addison became pregnant with his child. Charles was outraged when he found out. Addison believed that he had fallen in love with her and wanted him to care for the baby as his father. Charles knew that this was not the case and made them run away from the man's house. Addie knew that she would be looked down upon if she was a teenage mother, so she passed the baby off as her brothers.

History
Childhood:
Adrienne grew up in a very political household, and she retained everything she heard. She grew up wealthy but with the constant reminder that good times never lasted. Adrienne always strove to be the smartest in the room and her parents encouraged that. Since Adrienne was firstborn but not male, she could not inherit the title of her father, the duke, without marrying a duke. So Adrienne set her sights on the prince Caspian. She didn't want to rule so much as make sure France was the best it could be. She truly believed she would be a great queen.
Teen years:
Adrienne always had a small crush on Caspian, and Osiris's rebellion hurt her heart, for the people of France and for Caspian. When Adrienne found out Caspian was hosting a court she signed up immediately in hopes she might fulfill her dream.
