Adrian Ulpius-Tarpeius, Duke of Haenna, EAA MCC OC (Flavius Ulpius Anicius Hadrianus Iason Alexander; b. 30 July 1996) is Latin noble, peer and member of the Latin Armed Forces. He is the fourth child of former Latin Consul, Maria Tarpeia and Christopher Ulpius, Duke of Vindobona.

Adrian was a member of court at the Palace of Augustus in Castellum throughout the reign of Jason VI Augustus. During the 2016 succession crisis, Adrian remained in Castellum and was pressed into military service in support of the coup attempt led by Prince Michael of Latium. Adrian earned the derogatory sobriquet "Kinslayer" for betraying and killing his cousin Prince Michael of Latium to end the 2016 succession crisis. He was later pardoned by Emperor Constantine XX.

Adrian inherited the Dukedom of Haenna from his elder brother George, whom died without issue in December 2016. Adrian recently inherited a share of father's holdings and familial controlling stake in ULArgentaria, which his uncle currently serves as CEO. He is the great-grandson of Emperor Constantine XIX of Latium.

Education

Adrian was born on 30 July 1996 at Sancta Maria National Hospital in Castellum ab Alba to Duke Christopher of Vindobona and Duchess Maria. Adrian is the fourth child and third in line to his father's titles. He has three older siblings, Theodora, Justin and George; and one younger sibling, Helena. Adrian was primary raised in Castellum, having been born during his mother's tenure as a Senator. Unlike his older siblings who attended St. Michael's for primary and secondary school, Adrian only attended through primary school and was later sent to St. Pelagius boarding school in nearby Colonia Augusta for secondary school. Following his graduation, he enlisted in the Latin military and was enrolled as a cadet at Olympia Military Academy with the hope of joining the Legionary Arcanii or the Praetorian's ESA.
