Queen of Thieves

When she began bringing together the various groups of people who were living on the fringes, the Lord Commander Gerhard Lang called her "a queen of thieves and cretins". She liked it so much she adopted it as her moniker. The Queen of Thieves has formed a coalition from the displaced and unwanted and shaped them into one of the five major powers in Drakkenheim.
Some groups she made deals with, others she won over through force of personality, or convinced them to follow her cause. They are displaced peasants, mercenaries left over from the civil war, and others who live on the edges of society. Yes, some of them are thieves and brigands as her detractors like to claim, but most are honest folk driven to extremes to keep themselves and their families alive. To all of them she offers safety and comradery. And the hope of one day living in a better world where there are no nobles, and common folk can live in peace.
