DQueen: Maddalena Ginevra Theodora Renata Rose, Her Royal Highness Queen Maddalena (21)
DConsort: Henry Luca Tomasso Edmund, His Royal Highness King Consort Henry (20)
Of the Royal House of Damrys, in the queendom of Camora.
No man has sat on the throne of Camora in generations. The legendary Queen Renata, who was hailed as queen over all after her armies defeated invaders and united all Camora, declared that her people should be ruled as a mother rules her children--with compassion, love, and rationality. For women, as wisdom of the time said, were calmer, more rational, and less warlike. So Renata set up her daughter to rule after her, and there have been fewer than ten ruling kings in all the history of Camora. Though of course it is no longer believed that men are generally less rational or more warlike than women, there has been one other very good reason to keep women in power: it can always be certain that a woman's children are her own, and therefore an heir of royal blood can always be proven. Therefore, daughters have always been treasures in the eyes of Camoran rulers.
Maddalena has been destined to rule since her birth. She is the granddaughter of Queen Rose, her eldest grandchild and daughter of Princess Ginevra, the former heir. Ginevra was set to take the throne upon her mother's death, but fate decided differently. When Maddalena was fourteen, her mother was thrown from her horse. While she survived, the accident crippled her. After it became clear that Ginevra would never be able to walk again, she made the decision to give up her birthright in favor of her daughter. Maddalena has been raised to rule since birth, so when her grandmother died when she was a few months from her twenty-first birthday, she felt prepared. Though she could not take the throne until she turned twenty-one and came of age, the last six months were still full of preparations. Her very first order of business was to marry. She and Lord Henry Wen had spent their summers together since they were babies, as the Wen family was possibly the second-most important in Camora, and the two had loved one another since she was fourteen. Her parents and his encouraged their relationship and betrothed them to one another when Henry turned thirteen. Preparations for their wedding were already underway when Queen Rose died, and only three months after her funeral their wedding was held. Only a few months later, in a week-long celebration, Maddalena turned twenty-one and was crowned Queen. She is excited and happy to take the throne and is sure that with her parents, siblings, and husband behind her she will be a great queen.
