Princess Violante: The Iron Blossom of Dreadmoor

Violante is the personification of a velvet glove hiding a spiked iron gauntlet. While her physical appearance suggests the archetypal "fairytale princess," her spirit is forged in the darkest corners of Dreadmoor’s political and physical dungeons.

Full Title: Her Royal Highness, Princess Violante of Dreadmoor (Later: Queen Violante the Merciless)

Age: 20 (at the start of her ascension)

• Physical Appearance: Disarmingly beautiful. She possesses pristine blonde hair often styled in elaborate, sharp braids and piercing sapphire-blue eyes that never seem to blink. She favors high-collared silks in deep crimsons and blacks—colors that hide the stains of her "hobbies."

• Core Philosophy: "The world is divided into two types of people: those who serve, and those who are dead."
