Esperia

A female human noble with regal bearing, Queen Dernatha has once golden hair now streaked with silver, styled in intricate braids adorned with gilded trinkets. Her sharp, piercing blue eyes have a calculating gleam, and her pale, almost sallow skin reflects her time spent in dimly lit halls. She wears luxurious robes of deep crimson and gold, embroidered with symbols of wealth and power, and a heavy, ornate crown that sits comfortably atop her head.

Ruthlessly ambitious and cunning, Queen Dernatha is willing to make any sacrifice, including her people’s well-being, to increase her wealth and power. She has little patience for weakness or sentimentality and surrounds herself with advisors and knights who share her merciless drive for profit. Despite her greed, she is a shrewd leader, fully aware of how to maintain her control over Siderion and its resources. She can be charming when it suits her needs, but her true nature is one of cold calculation and unyielding determination.

Queen Dernatha of Siderion is a powerful and morally bankrupt ruler whose insatiable hunger for wealth has led her to forge questionable alliances, particularly with the Golden Country. Under her reign, Siderion has devolved into a grueling mining operation, extracting precious metals that fuel the realms. Despite the harsh conditions, workers are compensated better than most, though this hardly makes up for the brutal nature of their labor. The Knights of Sunrise enforce her rule, declaring any metals not sourced from Siderion as contraband, solidifying her iron grip on the economy.
