==Personality==
In the beginning of the game, Kiefer has been described with "having a taste for wine, women, and adventure". He hates being in the castle all the time so he and the hero like to go off and explore the [[Shrine of Mysteries|forbidden ruins]] on the island. In contrast, he seems to resent his position as Prince, a feeling that puts him at odds with [[King Donald|his father]]. He can come off as snobbish at times, like in [[Ballymolloy]], he introduces his friends as lackeys. However, he does have a sense of duty when he tells the Hero that they should find the Green Gem to heal [[Hanlon]].

==Synopsis==
==Appearances==
==={{DQ7}}===
The game begins with the Hero and Kiefer exploring the underground cave in the [[Shrine of Mysteries]]. He tells the Hero to call it a day. The next day, Kiefer steals the Sunstone, a ring that belonged to his mother, and a scroll from the royal library. It shows a picture of a man with a scepter. Kiefer interprets it to be the same as a statue in the Ruins. He tries putting the Sunstone on the statue but nothing happens. Frustrated, he leaves the scroll with the Hero who takes it to the Sage at the Cliff. The Sage interprets it and tells them that in order to open the ruins the Chosen One must pray before the statue.
