== Biography ==
Katkin Rain was born in Misthaven around 200 AD. She was born into the wealthy Rain family. During her childhood she would always spend her afternoons playing and relaxing in Lake Alistor. Though she loved her family, she felt like she wasn't getting anywhere being stuck inside her own home. 
Around the age of 15 she fled home with no notice and sailed off to find her calling. She would spend three years on the high seas. She would visit many different free islands, and meet new people. During her journey, she met Vargis, a lone merchant who is only a few years older than her. Both became friends rather quickly and start a relationship shortly thereafter. Though the relationship was short lived due to Katkin believing it was not hr time yet, but promised that she would always keep in touch and visit him over the years.
When Katkin turned 18, she landed onto the Country of Misbah by accident. Katkin was later accepted into the Empire's Navy. With experience on the high seas for several years during her trek to find herself, she was able to command a ship with her own crew. With the Empire already having such a strong grip on Aurelia, Katkin was able to invade cities, islands, and coastal towns to strengthen fear about the Empire's navy force. During her adventures on the high seas, she stumbles upon Vargis' ship within Empire waters. She finds out that Vargis lives in Nazareth and remains a merchant and loves his life as it is. Both rekindle their relationship while she stays in Nazareth with him for several months. During this time, Katkin got pregnant with their daughter. She contacted the Empress and notified her that she will be on leave for sometime.
Several years pass by, Katkin and Vargis both continue their lives on the sea, their daughter, Sylvia, disapproves of the ocean blue and sometimes asks to stay at home to play with friends. Katkin says that Nazareth is dangerous out at night. Refuses her daughter to go out until she realized that she's treating her daughter how she was being treated as a child too. She allows her freedom, but to return home with a curfew. 
At the age of 25, Katkin and Vargis both split up after Vargis struggles with alcohol and a failing business knowing the Empire closed off shipping routes to the Country of Misbah. Katkin leaves her daughter behind and promises that she'll return to see her soon. After saying her goodbyes, she promptly travelled to the capital to retake her position. Empress Vanessa Hart accepts and allows her back inside the Navy. Over the course of 11 years, Katkin rose up to the top and now controls a navy fleet of 3,000 ships on her command. This fleet has stirred up fear all across Aurelia, and many denizens of Aurelia have abandoned coastal towns so they don't get killed by invasions by the sea. During this time, she sailed to Castillion to talk to Lord Tarron privately about an event that took place 4 years ago. He confirms her thoughts and asks her to keep quiet saying: "She's our future. Please, they are trying to find her and kill her." Knowing this information, she tries to help Tarron in anyway she can. Sometimes asking to see his daughter to try and get her to trust Katkin. She denies out of fear that they might be watching. During her stay both Tarron and Katkin became good friends. Tarron welcomes Katkin into his family home anytime she visits.
Sometime around March 236 AD, during the Invasion of Castillion, Katkin was invited to a meeting with Lord Tarron and other ambassadors by Empress Hart. Accepting the invitation, she sails back to Misbah and in about a few days time, arrives and settles down. During the meeting she notices small details that feel off. She questions why she was invited, and why she's here if everyone else is an ambassador of a country. No response was given. She tries to talk to Tarron, but Skye Hart cuts her off. Noticing that is a hint, she quickly gets out of the building, avoiding any guards along the way. Knowing that Tarron was just killed and believes that they are after his daughter. She abandons her postion and quickly runs to Vargis for help. 
Vargis, who hasn't seen or heard from Katkin for over 11 years, isn't too pleased with her presence. He asks why she has returned. After several hours of pleading for help, Vargis agrees to help her, but will never side with her because of who she's helping.
