Family background: Jeanne was the youngest child of Alexandre and Louise de Caulmont, the Count and Countess of Sudme. She had two older brothers, Thomas born in 1101 and Gilles born in 1104. . The Caulmonts were a close family, but they were also very ambitious. Once it became clear that the King was interested in young Jeanne, Alexandre used that to his advantage. When Jeanne became Queen, she convinced her husband to appoint her brother’s to positions of power and to arrange advantageous marriages for her female relations.
Goals: Jeanne wants to give the King his true and lawful heir, which she eventually does. She wants her child to grow up and become a great ruler.
Emotional status: Jeanne can be calm and serene. She almost never yells, but because of some darkness in her past, she hides part of herself.
Extra detail-fill in as needed- Jeanne is close to her Gilles, but she is closer to her female cousins. She showered them with gifts and money in the form of pensions when she became Queen.
