Queen Jalenna Seraphyne uth Valderos I
Sovereign Queen of the Kingdom of Valderia, Her Lands and Subjects
Her Gracious Majesty Jalenna Seraphyne uth Valderos (a.k.a. the Sovereign Queen of Valderia)
"We welcome you, as one welcomes a fierce storm after a drought. With gladness at the necessity of your tidings, yet apprehension at what your coming must unleash." - Queen Jalenna, meeting the party.Beautiful, graceful and supremely intelligent, the young Queen of Valderia seems a perfect sovereign for her elegant realm. Born into her power and raised from her first moments of consciousness for the role she now occupies since the tragic deaths of her royal parents, she has shrugged off numerous amorous and ambitious suitors and thwarted every challenger to her destiny throughout her young life. Now that she has at last ascended the throne, though many chortle at her youth and the naivete that must surely come with it, others observe that she has already proved a competent and charismatic ruler.
Physical Description
Facial Features
Jalenna has large, brilliant blue eyes and a fine-boned facial structure. There is a slight sharpness to her features that can leave her expressions somewhat vulpine when she is not wearing her usual soft, winning smile.
Identifying Characteristics
Jalenna is generally soft-spoken and demure but can raise her voice to a surprisingly powerful volume when she deigns to appear commanding.
Apparel & Accessories
The Queen keeps immaculate personal cleanliness and enjoys frequent baths, particularly noteworthy among the aristocratic class of Valderia with their wont for smothering poor hygeine in layers of perfume. Jalenna dons elaborate garb only for ceremonial occasion, preferring gowns of expensive but tasteful restraint - and surreptitious mobility - whenever she is taking part in daily activities, habits which have inspired much imitation at Court in the times both leading up to and following on from her coronation. Her signiature scent is a subtle lilac and jasmine perfume which accents her general persona of a light, airy and pure individual.
Personality Characteristics
Motivation
To maintain her sovereign rule of Valderia and upkeep its power and prosperity
Savvies & Ineptitudes
The young Queen was born and raised into the genteel but cutthroat world of the Valderian royal court, and seems remarkably adept at weaving her way unscathed through the tangle of intrigue and scandal that drives the Capital gossip.
Her considerable personal charisma and ability to engage frankly and intelligently with any individual on any level of society with which she meets have won her the adoration of many of her people prior to her ascension to the throne.
Time alone will now tell if she is as an adept at ruling as a sovereign as she was in playing the perfect princess-in-waiting.
Likes & Dislikes
The Queen is said to be very fond of exotic fruits and salads, which are brought to her from all corners of the earth. She is restrained in her eating habits, however, in particular comparison to her father King Thomais uth Valderos IV, who was renowned for his culinary gusto.
She is fond of her jester, Raggletag, a strange individual who is rarely far from her side. She has been known to employ his antics to disarm and distract unwanted petitioners, or in rare cases even to undermine or humiliate those who seek to publically challenge her when she has the fool in her presence.
Virtues & Personality perks
The Queen is courteous, charming, and disarmingly beautiful. She appears genuine in her concern for the welfare and well-being of Valderian citizenry and for the prosperity of Valderia as a whole. Despite her high breeding she thinks little of acting as 'the people's queen', interacting with and listening to even the lowliest of her subjects should they find their way to her royal presence. She is fully capable, however, of bringing the full weight of her royal authority to bear, generally when faced with another figure of importance acting arrogantly or presumptively in her presence.
Vices & Personality flaws
Jalenna's apparent weakness is her youth and inexperience in ruling so powerful a kingdom as Valderia. Despite her portentous birthright and all of her upbringing pointing her to this moment, she is nonetheless a young woman surrounded by a nest of hidden enemies and dubious allies.
It appears she is aware of her vulnerabilities, and, if there are further chinks in her armour, she cannily keeps them close to her chest.
Personality Quirks
The Queen's dainty, ladylike giggle and heart-rending sigh are well-known to those who have met her, and sung of with longing affection by bards across the Kingdom. Canny observers note that she is apt to wield such mannerisms to deflect amorous attention or attempts to bait her into political intrigue and that they may be more of a well-honed tool at her disposal than any form of unconscious tic.
Social
Social Aptitude
Extremely charismatic, confident and courteous, adept at speaking publicly and navigating social scenarios.
Speech
She speaks multiple languages fluently. Her natural accent is a High Court Valderian, with all proper intonations, as respects a member of the Royal Lineage.
