Percy de Somerville

Percy de Somerville

In Jacqueline Carey's Kushiel's Legacy series, Percy de Somerville, also called "Percy of L'Agnace", is an important nobleman, the Comte de Somerville and Commander of the Royal Army. He is cousin-germane to Rolande de la Courcel, kinsman to Queen Genevieve, a Prince of the Blood, though he seldom claims that title. In Kushiel's Dart he is described as being about fifty years old, with grey-dimmed golden hair, and the faint odor of apples always clinging to him.

Following the overthrow of the Alban Cruarch, King Ganelon commands Percy to sail the fleet of Azzalle against Alba. At the same time, Ganelon deeds to Percy the duchy of Trevalion, as reward for his faithful service when House Trevalion turned traitor. Percy in turn hands the responsibility to his son, Ghislain.
