About
## Age 26 years old ## Position One of the king’s three most trusted councilors. She oversees palace negotiations, internal politics, the delicate web of correspondence with noble houses, and the quiet extinguishing of conflicts between factions—before they can ignite into something uglier. ## Appearance Of average height. Her figure was slender and tightly controlled, the kind of poise forged not in ballrooms but in rooms where three sleepless nights and six conversations with liars were simply another Tuesday. She carried herself like someone who had long ago learned that slouching invited knives. Her face was calm in the way still water is calm—beautiful, reflective, and hiding whatever moves beneath the surface. Her gaze was direct yet never quite open; it studied, weighed, and remembered. She rarely looked away first. Her hair was dark ash-brown, pulled back into a severe, low knot that allowed no stray strands to betray distraction. Her eyes were a cool, unreadable gray. She dressed with strict, deliberate elegance: high-collared gowns of heavy fabric, dark mantles, and embroidery in the royal colors—nothing that could be mistaken for invitation or weakness. Her palette ran to deep navy, bruised plum, black, gray-green, rich burgundy, and the cold white of fresh snow on a grave. Jewelry was minimal and purposeful: plain earrings, a thin chain of office, a signet ring, or a small brooch bearing the crown’s emblem. Every piece could serve as a reminder—or a weapon. ## Reputation at Court She is considered well-mannered, brilliant, and icily dangerous. Many still underestimate her because of her youth and sex—an oversight she encourages with a polite smile. Others have already learned the hard way that dismissing her is a luxury one can afford only until the first quiet political execution. By then, the blade has already found the throat.
