== Biography ==
=== Life in Marle ===
Capucine de Loupe-Néri was born 1496 AtS to House de Loupe-Néri while on the road in the Principality of Marle. She was the youngest of four siblings and yet another gift from Schieff to her fathers. Her early childhood was quite similar to those of her siblings. She was educated in culture, writing, etiquette and matters of state. 
As she aged, however, it quickly became apparent that Capucine had little interest in these matters. Luckily, she was gifted with a strong body and was soon able to overpower even her older brothers. Noticing her martial talents, her fathers decided to send her to be educated at the court of Duke Reginald of Luria, a close friend of Théodore de Loupe-Néri's. At an age of only six years, in the year 1502 AtS, Capucine left her family to travel to the Duchy of Lauria within the Longoine Kingdom. Though she was only meant to stay there for a few years, Capucine would never return to her home.
=== Life in Lauria ===
Arriving in Ducal Luria, Capucine settled in under the wing of Reginald of Luria, who's own daughter, Cassida of Luria was just born two years earlier. Though the niceties and formalities of nobility last for a while, soon the two began to grow closer, acting more like father and child. Being the elder of two girls, she received much more attention than she ever did from her blood parents.
As Cassida grew older, she too joined Capucine's education. The two grew to become friends and regarded each other as sisters. Though the stronger Capucine specialized more towards tactics and fighting and the far weaker and smaller Cassida enjoyed the study of grand strategy, the two were inseparable.
By her sixteenth birthday in the year 1512 AtS the repeated calls of her father's to return home had caused the friendship between Théodore, her biological father, and Reginald, who she considers her real father, to break down. Though Reginald promised Capucine he would not force her to return home, the incident became a minor diplomatic incident and King Robrec of Chesterfield, the king of the Longoine Kingdom got involved. Cassida and Capucine feared for the worst and in secret, in the ducal stables of Luria, the two entered into a blood pact and swore to forever be bound as sisters. Eventually, Capucine was permitted to stay for another six years, by which point Reginald would be legally required to return Capucine even against her wishes, a promise to be enforced by King Robrec.
=== The Laurian Wars ===
Yet fate would twist again in 1520 AtS when Reginald succumbed to wounds suffered during a duel of honour. Capucine's sister Cassida ascended as Duchess. Capucine aided her during the Laurian War of Rights as an advisor and officer. When the Laurian Wars broke out and her family sent a final order for her to return home, Capucine decided to fully abandon her house and stay with Cassida.
After the Coronation of Cassida as empress of the newly founded Empire of Lauria, Capucine was appointed as the Captain-General of the Imperial Honour Guard, tasked with protecting her life.
