This is a general overview of the characters within the tale of Akagami no Shirayukihime containing links to individual character pages for those characters which possess them. In general there are far more male characters, (named, unnamed and even filling in the background) than females with male characters prominent enough to be given a name and/or title numbering at 60 while there are only 18 such women in the tale. Families consist mostly of men with mothers, wives, grandmothers and aunts not clearly depicted, mentioned or named except in the case of Haruto Wistaria. While there are at least seven acknowledged sets of siblings no family has more than one daughter, while several have multiple sons. Elderly women in particular don't seem to exist in this world while there are elderly men to spare, and strangely whatever medical cause might be at the root of this is not addressed despite the main character being a woman who acts as a doctor. Despite this disparity in numbers women in Clarines enjoy more freedom than most women in the time period the work draws most heavily from as they often hold prominent positions, become scholars and inherit lands and titles in their own right. Noble ladies may also become knights and swordsmen, though this is less common and frequently commented on when it occurs. Women and commoners on the other side of the border with Tanbarun have fewer rights.
Main Characters[]
The story is centered on the protagonist Shirayuki, with her love interest Prince Zen Wistaria of Clarines acting as deuteragonist. Zen's aides Mitsuhide Rouen and Kiki Seiran along with the reformed former mercenary and assassin Obi round out the five main characters. Zen, Kiki and Mitsuhide first met Shirayuki shortly after she crossed Clarines' eastern border while fleeing from Tanbarun. Zen was traveling incognito at the time which allowed him and Shirayuki to begin their friendship without the influence and interference of his title. Obi entered the picture a couple of months later under the employ of Marquis Haruka, who had hired him to prevent Shirayuki from continuing to meet with the prince. After being caught Obi handed himself over to Zen as he was intrigued by both Zen and Shirayuki and their unconventional relationship and stubbornness.
