Nearly one hundred years before, he was (in his words) a 'pretty prince' caring for nothing but adventuring and rescuing fair maidens. But he rankled one too many evil hags. One night he was transformed through magic, the work of the hag's terrible cruelty and cunning, into a ferocious beast, an obscene parody of his original form, and he found himself trapped on an enchanted isle, the former Isle of the Forest.

  • Nearly one hundred years before, he was (in his words) a 'pretty prince' caring for nothing but adventuring and rescuing fair maidens. But he rankled one too many evil hags. One night he was transformed through magic, the work of the hag's terrible cruelty and cunning, into a ferocious beast, an obscene parody of his original form, and he found himself trapped on an enchanted isle, the former Isle of the Forest. She created for him a castle to live in, and setup three magical barriers to prevent him from leaving the island. In time his prison became his sanctuary, keeping people out as much as it kept him from leaving the island. The sorceress left him only one way out, as her final bitter joke, the spell could only be broken by the true love of a maiden, who would have to share his castle, and his life willingly. Alexander finds Cocteau (a.k.a. Beast) a love named Beauty. Cocteau was returned to his human form, pleasing of face and gentle of demeanor. The two live in a great chateau, spending near all their time together, a reaction perhaps to their prior situation of pain and shame and loneliness.
