Aessa Aemili

Holy Daughter Aessa was first announced to the world as the seventh son of the Aemili family. When she ascended as Holy Daughter and Keystone of Jupiter, she was reintroduced to the world as Aessa, first daughter of the Aemili. She is the first known transgender Holy Daughter.

Early Life

She was born into the patriciate. As a young child Aessa was shy around strangers, but eager to please her family. She looked up to her father, a Senator, and would often tail his robes. She was interested in statecraft from a young age, and her family hoped that she would follow in her fathers footsteps. Although she did well academically, her school records note an antisocial tendency.
As a young adult Aessa showed a great interest in sports, martial arts, and a talent for running. Her biographers describe this period of her life as a quest to fulfill and excel at the expectations of a young man. She went to an all male college, and was very lonely, struggling to relate to her peers.

During her attendance the college was plagued with disaster. Frequent tremors weakened the integrity of the schools foundations. Aessa's newfound powers became obvious when she was found in the midst of a blazing wildfire, which quelled when her favourite professor was able to calm her.
She began her transition shortly after. Early biographies claim that her family renounced her and she was disinherited, but later biographies say this was unfounded speculation, and that her family has always stood by her.

As Keystone

Aessa's ascension was met with mixed reactions and confusion. With her rise came an increased interest in the scholarship regarding Keystones and gender. Many historical Keystones were revisited with this new lense, examining their relationship to gender and sexuality.
As Holy Daughter, she has gained the epithet Eye of the Storm for her calmness during disaster. Anonymous voices claiming to be officials within the Triune Temple claim that she is obstinate and hard to work with. Other more official accounts praise her faith and dedication to her work.

Despite being an unpopular figure among the Jovian Moons for her actions during the Catamite Wars, she is well regarded by the Lunar Keystones. They say that they felt genuinely heard and comforted by her, and that they believe the cause for lunar independence has an ally in the Holy City. She has visited post-war Ganymede, meeting with her Keystone as well as conducting memorial services in Mysia and Galileon, advocating for peace and forgiveness.
