Athena Viorel

Athena Viorel, also known as "Athena the Merciless" and "Queen of Runes", was the first Queen of Azure. She was a member of the infamous adventuring group, Guardians of Celeste, who put an end the War of Dragons and united the Celeste Empire. By swearing allegiance to Valor I, she started the Azure Monarchy.

Appearance
Athena was a striking woman, whose piercing blue eyes could send terror straight to a person's soul. She had lightly tanned skin, silvery gold freckles, and long white hair. In battle, she would often bring out a pair of bright silvery gold wings.

Personality
Athena was a highly intelligent woman who knew how to be charming when she needed to be. She was often seen as serious, independent, and confident, demanding respect wherever she went. She supposedly feared nothing and had a temper that was known by all her foes. She did not hesitate to destroy any person who stood in her way. According to historians, the only people she ever showed softness to was with the other Guardians, and later on, her own daughter.

Early Life
Athena was supposedly born in -83 AE (Y. 7099) to two powerful archmages. Sometime in her early adulthood, she became a member of the prominent magic guild Acera, later aiding the sky kingdoms in their war against the dragons.

War of Dragons
At some point, during the War of Dragons, Athena met her lifelong friends and fellow adventurers, the Guardians of Celeste.

She played a vital role in the War, becoming one of the most feared war mages in the sky kingdoms. She helped Valor defeat the last of the ancient dragons in Y.7182 (0 AE).

Reign
She was supposedly as terrifying a ruler as she was a mage. She established many brilliant policies during her reign, but had little tolerance for incompetence among her staff. She was also especially brutal towards insurgents and rebels.
