Raedra Obarskyr

Queen of Cormyr Raedra Obarskyr

The current monarch is Queen Raedra Obarskyr, who served as regent for her wounded brother Baerovus after the death of both her father and grandfather during the war with Sembia and Shade. She was crowned after Baerovus abdicated the throne in 1486 DR. Raedra is a war hero, having slain the Purple Dragon Reborn (which was, in truth, an enormous shadowborn wyvern ensorcelled by the Shadovar to appear as the dragon Thauglor) and broken the siege of Suzail. Raedra is unmarried, following the execution of her first husband, Lindon Huntcrown, who was spying on the crown on behalf of Shar. She nearly married a scion of House Crownsilver, but dissolved her engagement shortly after taking the throne. Her position as monarch is made tenuous by the fact that she is unmarried and has yet to produce any heirs, and she has gained a reputation of being very cold and calculating.

Quotes & Catchphrases
Royal Decree of Queen Raedra:   “Any person able to march and carry a weapon who comes to the Royal Court, beginning tomorrow, may swear their oath of fealty. If you do not have arms and armor, they will be given. You will ride the Way of the Manticore, scattering the Shadovar raiders and escorting refugees from their predations back to Suzail. You will be paid as Purple Dragons are paid, your families will be granted the same benefits in the event of your death. When the Shadovar threat is routed, your farms and your villages will be the first that the Crown sees to, and the powers of the war wizards will be given to your aid… Whichever noble family does not do their duty to Cormyr in the efforts of our defense shall have their lands seized by the Crown. And those of the common class who take up arms, despite never having sworn oaths to do so, will be allotted a portion of those lands as reward. The finest farm and pasturelands in Cormyr. You will have earned them… These are dark times. But they are not our darkest, and it is within our power to bring back the light. It is Cormyr who stopped the Tuigan Horde. It is Cormyr who halted the Shoon Imperium. We have weathered goblins and elves, orcs and pirates, dragons and the Blue Fire. And we have never fallen, we have never surrendered.”
