A noblewoman warrior from the Imperial Province of the Northern Marches during the early years of the Third War of the Power.

A noble from Cairie -which was originally a march created for the settlement of grey elfs-, often their bloodlines had much elven blood.

The Imperial Province of the Northern Marches was formed officially at the 2501 a.a.H (after the apparition of Humanity), when the northern marches of Huncle of old -Argia, Haut, Passage, Cairie, Goelathia, Vin, Lysandria and Haven-Morrow- were integrated into the Holy Sargonic Empire .

The northern marches -once the wild northern border of the Five Kingdoms of the Northwest- under imperial influence will see the arrival of numerous settlers, the reclamation of lands from forests and swamps, the foundation of cities and villages, finally taming the Wilderness .

The Imperial Province enjoyed prosperity, becoming rich and populous lands, that enjoyed the boost of the incorporation into the province of former surface holds of the dwarves of Helmed, lands who would largely settled by humans, but still remaining many dwarf settlements that thrived with the commercial exchange.

Dwarf forges, grey elven magic academies, rich mines of iron and wool will fuel the trade, and the shipyards of the coast would build ships for all the Empire.

The name of the Northern Marches became just an historic legacy, for it was no longer a frontier of mankind, and became ruled by a single governor, with his power granted by the Emperor.

But this prosperity and peace will come to a sudden, screeching end, as in the south -in the five kingdoms-, the fracture between the Emperor and the Archbishop of Karentia broke, sending the empire into turmoil and disarray in the Sargonic Religious Wars at the 2586 a.a.H.

The powerful Archbishop of Haven-Morrow and Goelathia sided with the church of Karentia, while Cairie, Vin and Helmed with the numerous non-human population sided with the Emperor and his religious reforms: the other old marches were divided, and war erupted between the factions.

Divided and weakened, the Emperor Don Camilo VIII the Apostate brought from across the frigid northern seas the Sukkes, first as mercenaries to serve his cause: but the northern barbarians from Hieyoks seized Navatiak for themselves at the 2588, and the following year marched down into the Northern Marches, fighting Imperials and Karentians factions alike.

After the initial pillaging and ravaging, the Sukkeses barbarians seized the imperial province and after defeating the Apostate Emperor in battle they proclaimed they own Sukkes Empire.

While they claimed to be an empire and where able to defeat the Apostate, the Karentians and the invasion of the Caliphate of the Orange Sun of Blazakhov, tribal divisions were strong among the Sukkes, and they failed to set institutions and organisation, often relying only in existing, weakened Holy Sargonic Institutions for tax collection: as well, despite the immigration of settlers from Hieyoks, they were chronically short of manpower, and a small minority over their northern Weseuros subjects, failing to legitimise their rule, depending only on their military might.
Overextended, they will clash with Gorbegea at the 2620 a.a.H in the Gorbegea-Sukkes War, and later faced the invasion of Ne'Sargonics in the War of Sargos , at the 2624.
Defeated by the Gorbegeos in the south at the 2625, soon they were as well forced out of the Five Kingdoms, retreating to the Northern Marches: there, they will try a last stand in the Battle of the Argian Fields, at the 2629. The Ne'Sargonic -aided by a large revolt of them weseurian subjects of the Sukkes- will prevail. There, died the sukkes chieftain Sturmt Starkbein, resulting in the final collapse of the Sukkes Empire.
But the Northern Marches didn't had time to recover from these wars, when began the Third War of the Power (2633-2675), which turned the Northern marches once more time on a battlefield:

After taking Navatiak, the Dark Legions of Demons marched over the Northern Marches and into Huncle in the 2636-2638 offensive.
Imperial forces would fight back in the 2641, expelling the Dark Legion from Huncle, and in the next years advanced, forcing the Dark Legion back from most of the Northern Marches.
At the 2644, with news of a large Nortendi revolt in Hieyokscream, the Imperial forces crossed the Dargoina Mountains, but the promised massive revolt never happened, having to do a hastily retreat before the fall of winter.
After this, the Northern Marches and the Sargonic Empire will be caught in a thug of war that will last until the end of the war, with the Sargonic marching northwards, then to be pushed to the south by the Dark Legion offensive, and then repeat: a large scale bloodbath, without tangible results: However, by the 2665s, the weakening of the Empire was beginning to show, and the demonic offensives of the 2670s weren’t countered anymore by Imperial offensives in retaliation. By the 2675, the end of the war, most of Huncle had fallen, and the Holy Sargonic Empire was making plans to completely abandon it, along with most of La Cruz.
