===War===
Queen Roxanne II debuted in "Suddenly the Skies Darkened" during a summit between leaders of the Summer Sun alliance. After the abrogation of the Harmony Crown in 709, Felexa reluctantly joined its ally Capricon in war against the Granite Bloc. Troops became depleted in Capricon, and the leaders of Capricon, Felexa, Vulpus, and Cervidium agreed to conscript soldiers from their new ally Gallix. However, this broke an agreement that citizens of Gallix would not be conscripted. King Poultrus III attempted to thwart the draft by sending his soldiers to Leprolia in defection. The Vixen Queen and Stag of Cervidium learned of the plot and invaded Gallix. Though Roxanne disapproved of her alliance's actions and had personal reservations about the eventual execution of Poultrus, she remained silent. She would later justify to her mother that the war was requiring everyone to do what was necessary for the survival of their own species. Roxanne ordered the visiting Petukinau family to return to Gallix, facing certain death. Roxanne's mother Jacquetta Lazoy and brother Lionel Lazoy secretly spirited the family out of Felexa. Unfortunately, they were killed upon arrival in Leprolia. 
By 712, Felexa was facing fire from the Granite Bloc and aggravation from the Summer Sun, who perceived Felexa as another weak link in their alliance. In "Infamy," Roxanne realized that both her mother and brother were violating Summer Sun terms and ordered them to watch themselves. Madonna Jacquetta Lazoy and Prince Lionel Lazoy agreed to take a respite from Talonclaw while Roxanne herself visited troops in northern Felexa. She did not report this movement to the Summer Sun, a move that would save her life. Days later, Talonclaw Castle fell siege to Summer Sun forces turning on Felexa. The betrayal was premeditated but unknown to Felexa. Roxanne's family escaped into Leprolia while Roxanne herself was ferried into occupied Capricon. All members of the Lazoy family, with the exception of Roxanne's husband Giulio Lazoy, were granted exile in Canis. She immediately defected to the Granite Bloc and shared all information she knew with Bentley Connelly. Roxanne became a Queen-in-Exile. 
In "Something Wicked," Roxanne and her family were informed of "something wicked" being conducted in Talonclaw Castle. She was still unaware of her husband's situation, and had not heard from him in the six years since they fled Felexa. Roxanne later served as a bridesmaid at the first interspecies marriage ordained in Canis. 
Roxanne joined Bentley in hosting the 719 Granite Bloc summit in "Two Moths Drawn to the Flame." With nothing to rule over in exile, she had mostly become an advisor to Bentley and other Granite Bloc rulers. When the 720 Cervidian edict about BioFreaks was released in "Requiem Aeternum," Roxanne was skeptical of the veracity. She later received firsthand proof when Sophie Riffick fled to Canis. Sophie, a fellow cat and BioFreak with the ability to control sleep, explained to Roxanne and Bentley her plight. Roxanne learned that her husband, Giulio Lazoy, had died two years prior in the experiments. Roxanne personally took on the responsibility of Sophie's safety and exile. 
Roxanne learned in "No Matter What" of the 723 assassination of Octavio VI, which shocked her. Further troubles plagued her in 725 ("Pro Patria Mori") when members of her extended family were executed on live television and Felexa was absorbed into the Union of Cervidian Centralized States (UCCS). 
The Lazoys left Canis on November 3, 725, in "Bless My Homeland," heading south into enemy territory. The passengers passed through former Felexa along the way, an emotional experience for Roxanne as their former Queen. The group reached the Vulpus Dam on November 11, where they mounted their escape. Unfortunately, the group was attacked by foxes led by the Vixen Queen. Roxanne was shot by foxes, and later died in the destruction of the Dam. Her entire family died alongside her, ending the Lazoy dynasty and leaving no heirs to Felexa. 
==Character==
===Namesake===
Roxanne's name was chosen because of the perceived great quantity of pink cats in Toontown named Roxy or Roxie. 
Her surname is based on the Italian House of Savoy, which ruled unified Italy until the monarchy's dissolution in the 20th century.
==Trivia==
*Roxanne and her family were chosen to perish due to the list of heirs left by Maximilian Walters in Contact not having cats on it.
