Project Synopsis
“Heavy Is The Crown” is a story of two friends and the worst event that could befall them, becoming strangers. Once thick as thieves, with dreams and aspirations, they are shattered by the onset of war. Upon its conclusion, the two returned home, unharmed but not unchanged. No longer satisfied with the state of their childhood home, they set about to fix it. Roman, a soldier at heart, tried to fix it in the way he had learned abroad. But when that failed, Roman was driven to exile, and Jude tried his way. And he was successful where Roman failed but his hold on the city was fragile. So, he made a harsh choice, which lead to harsher choices, which lead to a conclusion he could not avoid. But when Roman hears of his friend’s choices, he realizes that he might be the only one to stop the madness.

Character 1
Jude Angelo
Age
mid 20's
Gender
Male
Description
Jude Angelo was a man who would never back down to anyone. He had dreams of government but that was long before the bombs dropped. All his time at war just fueled his need for power, causing him to swear he’d never cause such atrocities. He is ambitious, brash, and needs control like man needs oxygen.
Character 2
Ash
Age
mid 20's
Gender
Female
Description
Ash was a fighter. Point blank and period. Trained as a martial artist and known across town for it, Ash did not wait for a war to start to go fight. Once the war had started, she had already solidified her legend as a ruthless killer. Ash is unapologetically ruthless, forever devoted and at her core, a realist, unswayed by the fragility of human emotion.
