A powerful businessman from Melisande and Lady Bardingales ex-husband. The current picture being painted of Donevel is that he is nasty piece of work. The running narrative perpetuated by Arobynn is that his ex-wife got a lot of his money and status from him in the divorce, gaining a place in the royal court, and so he is embittered against her and is hell-bent on screwing his ex-wife over. And that he wants to open a slave trade, should the road construction agreement for Melisande get the green light from the king.  
THIS IS NOT TRUE – While he enjoys the company of women and is not shy about that in the slightest, he is the furthest thing from embittered and most certainly is opposed to slavery. Doneval has a kinder side to him, as he risked his life to help set up a system of safe houses for runaway slaves and is very loyal to his country.  

His accent is up for interpretation, however, it is NOT American, and it is NOT so heavy as to not understand the English being spoken. He is described as tall and middle-aged, with pale blond hair and tan skin. He was not particularly handsome, but not an eyesore, either, and not heavy, but not toned.
Melisande is a country based on Africa.
