Spencer Wellesley

Spencer Wellesley is a notable resident on the Island of Keymon. Through the paternal line of Grand Duke Bryce Leigh VIII, who reigned from 2338 to 2356, his family has claimed the Ducal Throne since Grand Duke Gui Leigh was overthrown by a pseudo-republican movement 2655. Wellesley inherited the family's claim to the title Prince of Maddog and Earl of Karzon when his father died in 2808.

Adolescence
Wellesley was born to an affluent family with strong political connections in Keymon and Dolgaria. Because he was the heir apparent to the family's legacy and disputed claim to the Ducal Throne, Wellesley's childhood was very protected. He was tutored by his father, Robert Wellesley, until he enrolled in a public college to read political science and philosophy in 2801. Wellesley graduated with two master's degrees in seven years and decided on a career in the Naval Service. When his father died in 2808, he inherited the disputed claims and returned home to assume the role of family patriarch. Wellesley became a Maritime Surface Officer and was commissioned an Acting Sub-Lieutenant in November.
