THE R'UNORIAN EMPRESS KIRVOSA FLAMESEER |
(1625-) Current Empress of
the independent Kingdom Of
R'unor, R'marath Tribe. Daughter of Empress Fyra Flameseer
(1593-1640), married to the famous
R'unorian-Orcish
Admiral Mulgarth. Mother of Tyra and Gulara Flameseer.
Born in the imperial palace in the mid-spring of the year
1625 according to
the Santharian
Calender, Kirvosa grew up as
the sole daughter to a rapidly ageing Empress.
Since birth she was taught the ways of the
Imperial
Court - primarily how not to get in trouble
with the organizations of the real power, the
Librarians Guild
and the Guards
Council. In general she lived a life of privilege,
getting the finest imported wine, the best cloth, the plumpest pit worms always
on the table. Kirvosa finally became dissatisfied
with all the wealth and power and began
to try her hand at weapon smithing and clockwork
when she was still a young girl. This eventually
lead to an unfortunate accident when she was sixteen.
Unfortunately the specifics of the accident
are a carefully guarded family secret, as it was rather
embarrasing and shed a weird light on the imperial family.
However, it is an
undeniable fact that the accident did lead to the loss of her right hand,
which in turn led to one of Kirvosa's
most distinctive features, the clockwork bladed claw that
now sits where her right hand once had been.
Unfortunatly disaster struck once
again soon after this incident in the form of
Kirvosa's mother's death.
Kirvosa, still in her youth, took the throne
reluctantly at the age of 17 and has "ruled"
since then in an amazingly generous and carring manner.
Kirvosa also developped to a woman with beauty beyond
comparison. Her skin is the darkest shade of black, her pale redish hair flows
off the back of her shoulders and even drags a few feet behind her because of
its length. It is said that her emerald green eyes could melt the heart of any
suitor. Why she chose to wed the battle scared Mulgrath - who seems to smell
perpetually of old fish and cheep alcohol - is one of her greatest mysteries.
(She insists that he has a wonderful personality, although he rarely speaks, so
no-one can confirm if she's really telling the truth.)
Kirvosa is also known as one of the most open and socially
involved Empresses in recent
R'unorian history. Attending everything from
the wedding of prominent
R'unorian citizens to joining the festivities
at the feast of R'lia held in the early spring.
Thus it is no surprise
that her wedding was slightly less traditional than usual:
Having completely thrown out the
traditional crimson robe, Kirvosa
attended wearing only a pair of fine silver earrings.
Not to metion that the wedding was held not within the
imperial palace but in the market square. Kirvosa also
broke with another R'unorian
tradition when she simply decided to relocate the
throne room, moving it from it's
location deep within the heavily fortified central
spire to a more accessible location where she
now uses to speak with the people of the city
and the kingdom on a more regular basis.
Kirvosa has just recently
given birth to twin girls last spring.
They are both healthy and resemble their
mother greatly (well,
at least except for the extra body
hair and the predatory teeth that is...).
The twins are named Tyra and Gulara.
