Origin

Crowned under a violet eclipse and cloaked in inherited mystery, Empress Lupus Erytheme of House Erytheme rules over Lupéra, the shifting desert world where sandstorms and secrets both run deep. Her reign is marked by magnificence and volatility, as unpredictable as the twin moons Nephritus and Pleuritus that orbit her throneworld.

Born with a malar mark upon her face and a mind sharp enough to outmaneuver planetary councils, Lupus Erytheme rose swiftly through the ranks of the Lupérian dynasts. But it was not her birthright alone that solidified her power, it was her ability to withstand systemic collapse, to flare and fall, and rise again with greater force.

Her moods wax and wane like the moons above, and her judgment, while often brilliant, can turn in an instant. Some in the galaxy call her merciful, others merciless. Both are right. 

The Council of Remission maintains uneasy diplomatic ties with her, knowing that she has the potential to destabilize entire regions or unify them in remission.

Her past with the enigmatic Pred Ni Song is layered: once adversaries, perhaps something more, now cautious allies. The scars of war have not softened her; they’ve sharpened her resolve to never again be underestimated.
