Empress Azena Caspary, First of her name, Ruler of the Caspary Empire, Champion of Khabris
Empress Azena Caspary
The immortal founder and sole Empress of the Caspary Empire, Azena Caspary rose from humble origins as a farmer’s daughter during the devastation of the Rampage of the Behemoths. Chosen as the champion of Khabris god of Darkness and Death, she endured the destruction of the old world, united the scattered survivors, and built Eldermere City, birthing the Caspary Empire. Her immortality ensures she rules eternally, though heirs from the Mordoom family act as contingency rulers should her mind ever falter.
