History: A second generation queen, Erastasia, Era to those close to her, was trained from the moment she could pick up a sword how to fight for herself and her kingdom. Her mother, Queen Elziba's own precarious position as queen reinforced the fact that Era not only needed to be able to protect herself, but she needed to learn how to rule through both fear and respect. Generals, combat trainers, and warriors throughout the world were brought to teach the princess everything she would need to learn to not only successfully rule her own kingdom, to ensure the lands and people continued to thrive without outside threats.

By the age of thirty, Era was being sent off to patrol the borders with the other warriors, learning firsthand the threats her people faced and how to effectively deal with them. She was not treated like the future queen of Arlondore, but as any other soldier who needed to work their way through the ranks. She struggled as any young one would while trying to make a name for themselves, yet Era never became discouraged. She learned from her every mistake, disciplining herself harsher than any of her superiors could.

By the age of forty she was leading her own squadron. By the time she was nearing her 100th birthday, Era had risen to the position of general, managed to drive out all enemies that attempted to encroach on her kingdom, and even managed to win her first major skirmish which resulted in the take over of a large expanse of land that would connect Arlondore to the oceans.

At the age of 137, Era took the throne, succeeding her mother who ended her thousand year rule once she felt confident enough to hand the crown over to her daughter. Her first hundred years on the throne were a lesson in balance. Like her mother, Era used fear as a tool only when necessary. She was fair and just until the moment she was not. Era was smart enough to know who to make an example of and who to give enough rope to allow them to hand themselves. Within the first century of her rule, Era managed to clear out the court entirely and create a court of her own, not filled with males who deemed her a figurehead and balked at her authority.

While Era would have been content to simply rule over her own people and do whatever was in her power to better their lives, there were always forces working against her. From enemies pushing their luck, to nobles who were growing anxious by the young queens visions of the future. Erastasia wasn't content with the status quo. She wanted a future where her people could grow, thrive, and advance.

Era created a new branch of her court, a group that was entirely devoted to technological advancements within the kingdom. She sent delegates to neighboring countries, offering trade and an exchanging of ideas. As Arlondore's technology began to grow, so did its enemies. Soon Arlondore's military was surrounding its borders with Era making her rounds frequently to ensure no one managed to breach into their lands. Gradually, it became too much to sit around and wait for attacks. Rather than remain sitting ducks, Era took the fight to those who brought it to her doorstep.

Her first assault was small, yet successful. With only a small group of five soldiers, Era infiltrated the castle of her first target, assassinating the king and taking complete control of the kingdom in the span of five hours. She hoped that the quick, relatively bloodless coup would serve as a warning to those who attempted to challenge Arlondore. Instead, Era inadvertently planted the seeds of her own future demise without even realizing it.

A little under two years into her rule, Arlondore is at a tipping point. The people are thriving as Era intended, but there were still those who harbored resentment over the young queen and her visions of progress. There are those within her own castle plotting, waiting for the moment the warrior queen lowers her guard so that they can strike.
