Aurelia Ma'Rhegar

Aurelia Quis Ma'Rhegar, also known as Atrostia Quis Ma'Rhegar "The Tyrant" during her rule of Oasis, is the daughter of King Ma'Rhegar and was the ruler of the fortified city of Oasis during her youth when her father passed away. Over the course of many years, she started gathering explorers to lead expeditions to the unknown lands of the world. Her most successful expedition was the founding of a new continent known as Pryyance and establishing a small foothold on the new territory.

Background
"As I stand on top of my unfinished tower, I can see my whole city on fire.. Death and destruction have now destroyed Oasis. I can feel the power I have longed searched for. My tower may be unfinished, but it has achieved its goal: rival the Iron City walls and be taller than Harte City's steel towers. My mind is racing with a thousand thoughts. As I see my city fall within my grasps, I can end it all here and now. But, I will not. I will get my revenge. I will get back at the one who turned against me. I will get you, Skye. Mark my words; You will feel your life leave your body by my own hands. You made me murder my race, ancestors for your selfish goals and I fell for that. I cannot take back what I have done for you but justice will be served for me and you. As long as you perish, I will leave with no regrets."

- Aurelia's remark to Skye's betrayal

Aurelia's mother died giving birth to her. A tragedy which her father, King Ma'Rhegar blamed his daughter for.

Aurelia is mocked for being born a child with dwarfism, called derisive names such as "Midget" and "Halfling", which she tries to embrace to keep her self esteem up. Had an infant with dwarfism like Aurelia been born a commoner, she'd have been left in the woods to die; luckily, her birthright with the Ma'Rhegar name afforded her significant wealth and power. Shortly after her father's death, Aurelia changed her name to Atrostia to shy away from her birthname her father cursed her for.

The Enlightened Genocide
Over the course of 15 years after her father' death. Aurelia has led several expeditions to explore the far reaches of the world. Discovering new continents and lands to make peace with other tribes. At home in Oasis, while planning out a new led expedition into the new frontier known as Pryyance, she had an audience with Skye Hart, the ruler of the Heretic Empire. Skye has mentioned that she would like her help to achieve world peace amongst the other kingdoms of Aurelia. Skye mentions that her race alone has been trying to stop this task and asks Aurelia to help Skye calm down her relatives and ancestors. Unbeknownst to Aurelia, Skye has been mass killing Enlightened for several years now, and is now helping her without knowing Skye's true goal.

Aurelia notices that her ancestors and relatives are afraid of Skye and believe that something terrible is actually happening. Aurelia calms them down and tells them not to worry, saying that Skye is here to help us all. After speaking with some Enlightened in different camps, Aurelia managed to calm them down to a point where they won't cause any problems. Only for Skye to come in a kill them when Aurelia leaves for good.

The Oasis Civil War
The several citizens of Oasis sees what's going on and demands her to stop. This conflict sparks a shift within the citizens. Half believe this to be cruel and unjust while the other half sees is as comeuppance for the Enlightened's past failures. This sparks the Oasis Civil War an Aurelia cannot help stop it herself. She asks Skye for assistance only for Skye to fuel the fire more by stating that Aurelia has murdered her relatives alone. Skye arrests Aurelia for genocide and tosses her in an undisclosed prison far off in the West. Aurelia was betrayed by her ally in more ways than one and vows to get revenge one day, cursing the Hart name before being "forgotten".

Imprisonment within Barthos
Roughly 3 years go by. After being arrested by Skye Hart, she was tossed into the deepest cell in Barthos for her "crimes" against the Enlightened race. For these 3 years, people believed that Aurelia was executed and buried in an unmarked shallow grave. Aurelia has spent day after day groveling in her anger against the one who betrayed her. Ever since Aurelia was imprisoned, she has never seen a face ever again.
