Bambi the Elf Prince AU:

Ronno Vanryth is a son of Nimue the chieftess of dark elf and an heir of Vanryth family, the clan known for their war strategies and brute strength. Since younger years, Ronno has already shown pride of his brute strength and his appearance surpassing the standard of dark elf’s beauty as his distaste towards humans were already developing. He was taught by the surrounding that strongest is the one to be the most beautiful or obtain what they want the most, and he took those words in his life.

Unbeknownst to others, Ronno actually saw Bambi prior to Frida’s death. Initially, Ronno mistook Bambi as a beautiful elf girl and was enthralled. Although, he learned that Bambi was a little elf prince, it didn’t deterred the dark elf boy from wanting to befriend the innocent prince. Time passed as when Bambi was still recovering from his mother Frida’s death, he met Ronno who sneered and pointed out the flaw of season prediction the ground troll made. Although he genuinely wanted to befriend Bambi and his friends, his boastful and arrogant persona has left a less than pleasant impression. Ironically, he had given a rather helpful information to beware of humans; humans possess the tools that could trick elves into their traps outside the borders. After that similar incident Bambi nearly suffered but saved by his father, Ronno was approached by the young prince who thanked him for the information. While Ronno claimed he would lead his own kind and have Faline as his future wife, he didn’t entirely antagonized Bambi. But, Ronno was much hostile to Karus the Wood Elf Prince, feeling jealous and often thinks Bambi “favors” him. 

At one occasion, Ronno took form as a deer fawn and went to human borders with fellow dark elves to observe for any threat. When one of the dark elves (in form of deers) go caught in a trap alerting the mortal captors and hunting dogs. As Ronno freed the captive dark elf, he was caught and dragged by human captor, soon to be carried away to be sold as a slave. Angered that dark elves left him behind like cowards, Ronno revealed his true form as dark elf and brutally fought back by killing the dogs and injured the captors, ripping the ear-tag off of his right side of ear, leaving the notch as he returned to the realm. The council of dark elves blamed Ronno for unable to detect danger, due to him being “soften up” to Bambi and claimed him as a disgrace, enraging and scratched the dark elf heir’s pride. Since then, Ronno occasionally berated Bambi’s “unnecessary” compassion, labeling it as weakness when he refused to retort at the elven peers who bullied him, straining their friendship as Ronno stopped visiting the palace. In reality—with his own mother’s support—Ronno was harshly training himself to get back at the council and the cowards, and the humans for humiliating him. When he learned that Karus betrayed Bambi by leaving the court and helped by his parents to be Faline’s suitor, Ronno wasn’t upset that he had another “love rival” for Faline, but was more upset with Karus’ spineless decision.

Ronno’s emotions gotten much conflicted by the time he saw Bambi courting Faline. Decided to confront and see for himself what he himself wanted, he challenged Bambi who had recently defeated Karus days prior. Unlike childhood years, Ronno has proven to be a tougher and stronger opponent than Karus. Yet, during the battle when injuring Bambi in process, the dark elf was hesitant to give a serious or fatal blow. Seeing through his hesitance, Bambi yelled he wants Ronno to take him seriously at battle, provoking him further by asking if he’s afraid. Eventually, Ronno was knocked down, defeated after an intense fight. Despite the Alfheim having a law of executing the defeated for challenging the royal elves’, Bambi spared his life a same manner he did to Karus, adding that he had already forgiven Ronno knowing that he didn’t challenge out of spite. Feeling that he had felt acknowledged and approved, Ronno returned to his domain in content. Shortly, the dark elf heir received a letter sent from the palace, appointing him as the young prince’s favourite (the royal’s close companion/confidant). Even though he knew it means he have to give up his title as heir of Vanryth clan, Ronno didn’t hesitate to leave as he accepted the offer. While dismayed that Karus was also chosen as Bambi’s favourite, Ronno was confident that since Karus and his clan turned their back on Bambi and his father once—causing their political power weakened—he would have a chance to prove his worth. Thumper half-jokingly remarked if Bambi was born a woman, Ronno would have already plot the murder on Karus long ago. 

When Faline’s foster brother Gobo was revealed to be alive and returned, Ronno was seen with disapproval when Gobo explained how he survived; he was rescued and cared by humans that lived in a local village just outside of their realm. When the half-human half-elf suggested there should be a peace between their realms and humans’, Ronno rebuffed that idea as not only that would break the peace within their realm, it would also expose themselves to the humans who would not hesitate to use or harm them for their selfish gain, adding that if all humans are good, the one responsible for Bambi’s mother’s dead should have grovel and atone for what he did, conflicting Bambi whether he should trust humans or not. During Bambi’s coming of age ceremony, it was revealed that Ronno’s position as young prince’s favorite had made all dark elves fear/respect him as proper future leader of their kind. However, the ceremony was interrupted when the human landlord and his troops trespassed their realm. When Bambi has given his full permission to dispatch all armies of their realms to defend, Ronno eagerly ordered the dark elves to “erase” the entire threat, killing or severely injuring human soldiers with his strength. When one human soldier abducted and attempted to rape his cousin Rolla, Ronno beheaded the soldier before getting her to safety. He was later seen with Karus when Bambi stopped the human lord from killing his father Albrénean and assisted him away. 

While the United Regions of Forrest was restoring, Ronno’s strained relationship with Vanryth clan was recovering; Rolla no longer fears her older cousin as they became close enough to share their secrets and private thoughts they never told others before. Although his prideful persona and distaste for humans remain the same, he and Bambi’s friends are tolerant with one another. Eventually, his mother Nimue is considering of abdicating her chief status to Ronno who had already prove himself as what the Dark Elves must be.

Spin-Off “Perri and Annerle” AU:

In the spin-off, Ronno was seen with Karus in Bambi’s crowning ceremony as new Great Prince. He also has his fairy servant Mirro who has unrequited love for Perri, the fairy girl who later works for Bambi. Ronno’s cousin Rolla became a mother of two children; Boso and Lana. According to Bambi, Rolla’s husband was unfaithful man and as for his punishment in adultery, Ronno personally executed him. Even though many elven women desires to wed him, he rejected them all and continued becoming the new Great Prince’s favourite and help his cousin raising her children. He was seen amused when his nephew Boso developing a crush on Gurri, Bambi’ and Faline’s daughter. Much to his further amusement, his niece Lana harbors a crush on Bambi and Faline’s son Geno. 

In Annerle’s adventures at the realm with Perri’s assistance, the human girl stayed in Bambi’s palace, much to Ronno’s distaste. Annerle ventures the lifestyle of palace while working as Bambi’s servant alongside Perri, learned that Karus and Ronno are the highest-rank of council members, thanks to their status as the new Great Prince’s favourites. When Annerle asked what “favourite” is, Perri and Porro explained in concise details that they are Bambi’s close companions in politics and social affairs. Being a smart and perceptive girl, when Annerle encounters Ronno who was upset with Karus upstaging him at the court, she qualms his anger by saying she have heard of past between him, Karus and Bambi; adding that she prefers Ronno to be Bambi’s sole favourite instead of Karus who “betrayed” the prince big time. Satisfied with her supportive words, Ronno’s previous distaste for the human girl washed away and became relaxed around her. Mirro proudly pointed out that Ronno is a perfect model as what the dark elf should be; proud, strong and mighty, downgrading Karus for letting his trivial emotions to break the vow to support Bambi over Faline during their youth. 

At one point, Bambi and his friends watch Annerle’s drawings of her home, town, school, family and friends, realizing it has been centuries since the last time humans trespassed their realm. When Bambi curiously asked Annerle how does her time of humans find love, Karus and Ronno were flummoxed and turned their face away. Although, they were fascinated how human societies nowadays no longer have “conditions” or “limitations” in relationship. Ronno’s mother Nimue amusingly reminisced that when he was little, he mistook Bambi as a girl and wanted to know the family she came from so he’d ask for her hand officially, embarrassing Ronno as Perri and Annerle were seen giggling at the image of young Ronno’s antics, understanding his jealous tendencies around Karus. Later, when Faline asked Annerle how she thought of elven acquaintances, she analyzed that Karus is trying to redeem the years of betrayal and his brain is helpful in diplomacy, while Ronno is much ambitious and could be dangerous, but can be in great advantages when he uses for the good of the realm and safety of Bambi. When Annerle added that Bambi might be aware of these points, Faline confirmed that he does.

However, Ronno could be proven to be much composed than his younger years, especially when it comes to scheming. When he saw angry Mirro expressing hate towards Porro, Ronno knew his servant was upset Porro is courting Perri, the fairy girl he harbored unrequited love towards. Ronno comforted, saying that while he failed his own love life somehow, he chose to be the favourite and climb the way to gain more trust as he is now. When asked by Mirror what he meant, Ronno grinned and revealed Lukas Grassi who was revealed to be alive as werewolf; discovering the dying Lukas who was to be killed by his abusive stepfather, Ronno knocked the older man unconscious and healed Lukas, full aware of the werewolf boy and Annerle’s love. The dark elf remarked Lukas that he saved his life and need to give him something in exchange; Lukas will stay in Alfheim as appointed painter. Witnessing the reunion between Annerle and Lukas, Ronno was grinning as his “selfless” actions granted him more recognition from the new Great Prince. When Karus confronted him about having Lukas Grassi permanently living in their realm, Ronno points out the boy is no longer a human, granting him a right to reside and work as palace painter. Then, he warned Karus to know his place as he may have been in the court by help of his “royal mummy and daddy”, but he himself worked on his own as the favourite. As Karus left fuming, Ronno gave Lukas a discreet nod, a reminder of the deal, musing the life of mortals come and go, but elves’ are forever, implying the expansion of Ronno’s role as possible villain.

Bambi the Elf Prince AU:

Bambi Álvaldur is a young, gracefully built, beautiful Light-Nature elf prince of Alfheim in the United Regions of Forrest Kingdom. The only heir of the Great Prince Albrénean and his wife Frida, his birth was celebrated by not only the Alfheim, but also other regions’ magical creatures in the kingdom. Raised by his mother Frida and nanny Mena with their guidance and nurturing care, he shared most of his childhood with his best friends, Thumper the Dwarf, Flower the fairy, and Faline the nature elf girl who developed a crush on him at first sight.

In the Winter, Frida took her son to the borders where they could enjoy a picnic day without prying eyes, but was targeted by slave captor, a human, who attempted to take both of them to sell them as valuable slaves to human nobles. However, Frida had her son run away and risked her life, the gunshot alarmed the elven soldiers forcing the human to return to human realm, leaving Bambi motherless. Too young to understand the death, Bambi was informed by his father Albrénean that his mother can’t be with them anymore as the young prince was to be raised by the Great Prince. Despite not having much interaction, Bambi was determined to be approved by his father as proper heir. Recovering from mother’s death, Bambi encountered two elf boys; Ronno and Karus. Ronno wanted to befriend Bambi and his friends, but his arrogant and boastful persona has left a less than pleasant impression. Meanwhile, Karus was introduced to Bambi by his father as the Wood Elf prince would be helpful with his future. While Ronno claimed he will lead the dark elves and would have Faline as future mother to his offsprings, he didn’t antagonize Bambi much as Karus helps Bambi with his lessons and training. Despite the personality differences, they shared good friendship while maintaining his routines as the heir to Alfheim throne.

However, by coming of age, Bambi was confused and hurt when his friendship with Karus and Ronno ended; Ronno occasionally berates and taunts Bambi’s compassion for weakness as Karus became cold towards him, essentially quitting as Bambi’s supporter while being helped by his parents to be Faline’s suitor. However, Bambi never shown resentment towards Faline. Realizing Faline had her eyes only on him as she remained loyal to him just as Thumper and Flower are, Bambi starts reciprocating her love. Soon, Bambi was approached respectively by Karus and Ronno who challenged him for Faline’s hand and he agreed. Bambi admitted that while he admired their strength, he didn’t want to be treated as a person who needs to be protected as he wanted both of them to take him seriously when they were hesitant to land a serious/fatal blow on him. Eventually, Bambi won each fight he had against them. According to the law, whoever questioned future heir’s right to the throne lost from battle was to be executed. But, Bambi spared their lives, claiming that would be waste of their potential for the good of kingdom and knew that they never went against him with full hate.

In coming of age ceremony of Bambi, it was interrupted when he was informed that human landlord and his troops were approaching their realm. With the human landlord and his troop approaching, Gobo—who had positive view of humans during his childhood—decided to go to them and negotiate in peace as everyone else attempted to stop him. The tragedy strikes when the landlord killed Gobo, signaling his troop to mercilessly chase after all magical beings for his conquest. Alarmed but calm, Bambi dispatched all strong army of elves, orcs, and other magical beings to fight back while protecting Faline from human soldiers. Taken by the ethereal beauty of the young elf prince, the landlord injured Bambi with the firearm. However, despite the injury, Bambi continued to lead his people and others to safety as his father went to fight against the landlord, whom he recognized as the man who murdered Bambi’s mother. Searching for his father, he, Thumper, Flower, and others saw Albrénean cornered and had his spear broken by the landlord. With a bow and arrow tossed by Thumper, Bambi aimed at the landlord and fired as the arrow hit right into the corrupted human lord’s eye, preventing him from killing the Great Prince. As Karus and Ronno took Albrénean away, Bambi watched the human lord fall off from his horse and cries in pain. Instead of finishing him off, Bambi coldly turned away leaving the human’s fate unknown (but permanently disabled and traumatized once returning to human realm).

With aquatic elves and other water beings putting out the fire, Bambi partook in restoring the destroyed prefectures and bring the life back in the kingdom with help of his betrothed Faline, his friends, proving himself as a rightful next Elf Great Prince of the United Regions of Forrest. Although he had negative memories of humans since childhood, he have been notified the humans from local human village close to the border have been defending their realm and paid respect to Frida’s resting place. With a grateful smile and overcoming the long years of fury towards human, he knew not all humans are evil and decided to contact the said village’s kind and wise Elder.

Spin-Off “Perri and Annerle” AU:

Setting after the event of “Bambi the Elf Prince” AU, Bambi appear as newly crowned Great Prince as his father decided to abdicate the throne to his son. The main character, Perri the fairy girl was present in the blessing ceremony of Bambi and Faline’s children Geno and Gurri’s birth, with her mother among the magical citizens. As a friend of Flower, Perri accompanied him and his wife Petunia to deliver the flower gifts to the new Great Prince. Noticing the strange but welcoming scent of human from Perri, Bambi has taken an interest as he privately asked her if she had met a human. Perri confessed she actually become friends with the sweet human girl named Annerle who saved Perri’s mother. Soon, Perri has become a lady-in-waiting as her former playdate Porro became a palace cook.

Later, when Annerle accidentally transported into the realm where United Regions of Forrest is, Perri quickly led Annerle to the palace introducing her to Bambi. It was revealed that Annerle have been believed in the existence of many magical beings, due to her grandparents telling stories about them. Although Ronno was openly disagreeing, Bambi and Faline decided to let Annerle stay in the palace and often visit as long as she doesn’t tell other humans about their world, which Annerle promises. 

Bambi realized that it has been centuries in human world since the great fire and defeat of the human lord, and how the human world has changed, by Annerle’s modern clothes contrasting to the humans he have encountered. Noticing Perri pondering about love, Bambi initiated the conversation for his fairy friend by asking Annerle how does her world’s humans love, flustering Perri, Porro, and Mirro. Unaware of flummoxed looks on Karus and Ronno’s expression, Annerle simply replied while there are some cases people find love through conditions of wealth, status and looks, many humans just falls in love regardless of who they are, adding that even humans of same genders can get married, much to Bambi’s fascination and Perri’s curiosity. When Annerle asked the same question, Bambi replied that while genders didn’t matter, his world is repressive in relationship when it comes to interracial ones and the relationship between magical beings and humans were hostile, in which Annerle understands. Occasionally, Bambi watches the friendship between Perri and Annerle grew, even listening to Annerle’s venting about her crush Lukas Grassi, the art student of same age.

When Annerle visits again, Bambi noticed her grief-stricken state. Being perceptive yet calm, Bambi asked if it was about Lukas. When she was silent, he assumed correctly that something unkind has happened to him. In which, Annerle tearfully told him Lukas was killed by his abusive stepfather Ludwig week ago and refused to move on. Feeling the same grief he once felt by his mother’s death, Bambi comforted her as his father Albrénean encouraged her to always remember Lukas as he is always in a special place in Annerle’s heart. When being discouraged to avenge Lukas, Annerle asked Bambi how did he handle his grief. Bambi answered that time heals as he wasn’t alone, decided to love the ones who stayed with him, even if some of them once hurt or betrayed him. His words struck in Perri’s heart, made her realize that she loves Porro; the one whom she spent most of her life bonding, fighting, reconciling and shared their pain with.

In the end, during the wedding between Perri and Porro, Bambi was one of the guests as he gave both of them a marital blessing. Noticing a familiar young man, Bambi led him to Annerle, who was shocked to see the man; it was Lukas, who was believed to be dead. It was revealed that Lukas had to live a secret life as a werewolf in a form of conditional spell when he wanted to escape poverty by becoming a successful artist. When Annerle and Lukas happily reunited, Bambi smiled and left with his family, resuming to his duty as the Great Prince with content.
