Lady Alessandra comes from the world of Greyhawk, a world far from Ghemjana. She made her way to Ghemjana via a Spelljammer ship, just in time to see the Empire of the Elves collapse.
From there, she worked as a mage and adventurer for a while, until she and her companions led a rebellion against the former Tyrant of Yynaria and set herself up as a benevolent dictator of the city.
She formed the Tri-Cities alliance with the other two pyramid cities, creating a powerful and profitable conglomerate.
