Phaedra Amestris [Character Lore]

Added 2022-07-29 17:01:02 +0000 UTC

Phaedra Amestris is a Velantian councillor. Her family fled to Velantis shortly after the Imperial annexation of Nemain, using their connections to ensnare a position of wealth and power in their new home. House Amestris eventually became the governors of Ithyria District, which is home to both the Velantian arts and entertainment boroughs and Eidranian City. House Amestris is notoriously devout, following the practices of the Meissandic faith and regularly commissioning religious artworks across the city.

After becoming the head of House Amestris several decades ago, Phaedra used her influence to gain favour with the Meissandium. She manipulated events to ensure her nephew was elected to the position of Ithyria’s meissant and a contender for the position of High Meissant. She is also a staunch patron of the arts and regularly hosts salons to display the talents of her favourite performers, entertainers, musicians and artists to the wealthy elite.

Though outwardly she presents herself as the perfect Arathian aristocrat, she does not hold the Arathian Empire in high regard. She remembers the Lotharic city-states as they were before their Imperial annexation and knows the toll the war took on the region.
