Atia Fahrington

Atia Amalia Major, simply known as Atia Fahrington, called Atia the Elder (35 AK - present) is a Yutemond philosopher, historian, biographer, essayist and socialite. She is known primarily for her Dubious Lives, a series of biographies of illustrious Yutemond people and foreigners in the mid-later century, during reigns of Maria I and Julieanna I . She published the Atiliana, (a collection of essays and speeches).
She is the daughter of Atia Amalia, a Yutemond stateswoman from the House of Fahrington and her husband, Prince Lucien Korlat. For this reason she is occassionally called Imperial Madame.
== History ==
=== Early life ===
Atia Amalia Major, simply called Atia the Elder (to distinguish her from her younger sister) was born to Atia Amalia, who served as the Imperial marshal of the Imperial guard and (according to Atia), spent most of her time in Lewen (according to speculations), to be with her cousin Richard Fahrington. Her father was Lucien Korlat, the younger son of Empress Maria the Red.
Atia Amalia married Lucien Korlat, a son of Empress Maria I. Together, they had four daughters, and a son, Davos. It is assumed and believed by some that Atia spent most of her governorship in the county of Fairward in Lewen, instead of settling in Feilerion with her husband and children; this was possibly due to a mild-relationship with Faustina, the Countess of Fairward - though other sources speculate she was having an affair with Richard Fahrington, her own cousin.
It is probable that Atia was born in Fairward during one of her mother's long-term visits in Lewen or that she was born in the capital, but either way she was introduced to the the highest of society due to her status as a prince's daughter. The family moved indefinately to the region of Feilerion (prior to Amalia's assignment as governor from 65 AK - 66 AK), after her mother's execution in 66 AK, she was brought to the capital city.
== As a socialiate ==
Atia is recorded as a renowned socialite, a party girl, an elitist, very wealthy and a historian as well as Lucien's favourite child (according to her).
Atia started off as a socialite who drew expensive pieces of art for royalty and other nobles. By the time she was in her early teens, Atia was painting portraits professionally. 
In 40 AK, she was made a member of the Imperial painting academy. Her studio's reputation saw a meteoric rise, and her renown spread outside of Yutemond. By the 40s AK, she had painted portraits which included Faustina, Countess Fairward (one of her mother's favourites at court), Marcus Clovius Septimius (a conncubine of Julieanna the Gruesome), and among many others. In 72 AK, she received her first royal commission, to paint the portrait of the Crown Princess Jahzara (daughter of Julieanna I).
In 67 AK, Empress Julieanna ordered that Louise Fahrington squeeze breast milk in front of a crowd to compliment the illustrious Fahrington dynasty, if she had intended for first state citizen Richard to marry her brother, Lucien. According to Atia herself, she made fun of Consort Fahrington's breast size calling them "small tiddies."
