András never took his heritage seriously, at least not as seriously as he was urged. Third in line, youngest and most easily ignored, the youth kept to himself. Given wonderful tutors and all the desires a child could want, he found himself looking for more - to things he couldn't have. Finding joy in sneaking off, teasing the help, and often walking the grounds with a group of stable boys he befriended, overall, he had an educated and carefree childhood. Except... when his father was around.
In his youngest days, Andráska tried to be just like his older brother, but their differences were obvious even at their age. Where Alis was capable of controlling his emotions and his focus, András could not. His father often separated the two, eager to fawn over the first born and isolate the last. With Alistair the favorite and Zvezdana, their father's secret play thing, this left Andráska to just... be there.
And so he craved attention. Andráska began to act out in small ways, slowly picking up in intensity over the years. Their father continued to degrade him with cruel words and occasionally a strong hand, and thus the relationship stagnated and then declined. Compassionate and hopeful, András held out hope for longer than most have, but eventually it began to die, along with his self esteem.
Things changed little as he grew up, the beatings worsened and his isolation from his family grew. Kaleb Venora doted on the first born, leaving András feeling like a hurricane child, and his sister became distant, reserved and strange. Never taking to his studies nearly as passionately as Zvezdana, the energy in their home shifted. Secrets permeated the air, and the tense atmosphere nearly suffocated Andráska. He avoided and often skipped his etiquette classes all together, rolled his eyes at his mother's disapproval, and spent more time outside where he felt at peace. Being a noble felt like a chore, although he enjoyed the attention and the things money could buy, he always felt happiest when he was free. Now, after the near collapse of his house and the unsure future of Rynmere, the fate of Venora rests in his hands.
