Eva Bellambi

The 2nd Duchess of Loch Avie, Lady of Skye, and Lady Chief of Clan Bellambi
The Granddaughter of the Duke of Carntaigh and cousin to Her Grace, Gabrielle Riel, and distantly related to Edward Pearse, Earl of Primbroke. Her parents were The Duke and Duchess of Loch Avie, His Grace, James Fraser Bellambi and Her Grace, Claire Randall Bellambi.
Her Grace was trained in weapons use and intelligence skills by her father as she was his only heir. An apt student, she continued her training even as she began her formal education abroad. Upon returning to the Duchy, Lady Eva polished her leadership skills under the watchful eyes of both parents and began to learn the family's whisky distilling processes. Her mother further instructed her in the healing arts, which has been something that the women of the clan have long practiced. 
Her Grace now makes her primary residence on the Isle of Skye, Winterfell Anodyne, in her paternal grandmother's ancient clan home. The Duchess remains an estate manager for all of Caledon and is active with the civic and social responsibilities of the Independent State.
Her Grace established the Order of the Red Rose at Beltane with three Knights inducted into the order: Sir Telemachus Dean, Sir Adso Krogstad, and Sir ZenMondo Wormser. She also sponsors the First Caledon Lancers - Loch Avie's Own and the Loch Avie Academy of Arms. Colonel Exrex Somme and Colonel Hotspur O'Toole of the Lancers are members of her clan and court. Sir Telemachus Dean heads the Academy of Arms; Diamanda Gustafson was its first champion. Her Grace is head of Caledon MI-5, which was created during the Neualtenburg War in order to coordinate military and intelligence efforts.
A resident and aristocrat of Caledon since June of 2006, she is a founder of the Moors and one of the founding members of the Royal Society for the Advancement of Knowledge in the Natural Sciences with The Honourable Lady Kate Nicholas and Sir Adso Krogstad.
Her Grace has been an active participant in the Second Life Relay for Life events since her arrival on the grid, and established several events to support that cause, including the first multi-sim cooperative arms tournament, The Tournament for Life. In 2008, along with Seneschal Serra Anansi, she hosted the very successful First Annual Boobie Ball to raise monies for the RL, Susan G. Koman Foundation, which support breast cancer research. Her Grace has also been a part of the Social Season Planning Committee of Caledon and an active member of the CaleCon Planning Committee.
