You are not a prince; you are Colonel Mustard's illegitimate son. Your mother was a member of a king’s harem, but Mustard abandoned her. She was executed when their infidelity was discovered. You spent your childhood as a street rat and hate the Colonel with a passion, though he has no idea that you are related. Although engaged to Countess Emerald, you are secretly carrying on a torrid affair with Miss Scarlet. In fact, on the night of the murder, the two of you had a hasty but passionate rendezvous out in the barn. You have told her about your hatred of Mustard – but not why you hate him. She still thinks that you are a prince.
