Alana Viorel

Alana Viorel, also known as "Alana the Arcane" and "Princess of Runes", was the second Queen of Azure. She was succeeded by her eldest son, Aamir.

Appearance
Alana was a beautiful woman, with stark white hair, which she often kept short, and blue eyes. She had a similar tanned skin with silvery gold freckles, though slightly fairer than her mother. She was said to have a softness that her mother didn't have.

Personality
Alana was a smart and talented woman, with a subtle charm to her. While she had the same ambition as her mother, she did not have as much political resolve. She was said to have been kinder, but also less steadfast as a ruler.

Early Life
Alana was born in 2 AE to Queen Athena Viorel and an unknown partner.

At some point in her adolescence, Alana studied under the Seros Insitute, following after her mother's footsteps as a powerful archmage and arcane artificer.

Reign
Alana ascended the Azure throne in 6 AE, at the age of 59. While she may was said to have originally wanted the throne, she lost much of her political will and drive during her reign, as she was often compared to her mother, who she often struggled to impress. She was supposedly more interested in arcane study than ruling the kingdom, often leaving her work to her advisors and council.

After pressure from her advisors to create an heir, she married long term research partner, Magister Malcom Dovah. The couple had two sons, Aamir and Axon.

Death
Athena died of an arcane incident in 99 AE at the age of 93, somewhere in the Seros Institute. Many attribute her death as a cautionary tale of reaching too far, though it is largely unknown what she was working on in her last project. While her death has been attributed to be an accident, there are a few who believe that it was the work of an arcane rival.

Legacy
Alana Viorel is remembered as a decent queen, though she was often left in the shadow of her mother. She is better remembered for her many arcane projects and research in the Seros Institute.

She had two sons, Aarmir in 70 AE and Axon in 73 AE, both of which would later take up the throne.

Athena Viorel
Alana is Athena's only child and heir. She was said to have lived in her mother's shadow her whole life.

Malcom Dovah
Malcom was a close friend, research partner, and later husband of Alana Viorel. The two supposedly had a healthy working relationship, with only small tastes of romance, but they were better friends more than anything.

Aamir Viorel
Alana had a good enough relationship with her children, though she wasn't overly motherly towards them. Alana tried to prepare Aamir to rule as best she can.

Axon Viorel
Alana had a good enough relationship with her children, though she wasn't overly motherly towards them. Alana believed in preparing both her children to rule, thus treated Axon as if he would become an heir as well.

Abilities
Alana, like her mother, was an exceptionally powerful mage and sorcerer.

Influence
As Monarch of Azure, Alana was one of the most powerful people in Auros. She also had a strong influence in the Seros Insitute.
