Queen Mother of Mordale, Lillian Beaumont Moretherial was born in 1183 (56), in Britegate, Mordale. A quant castle too small to be labeled on the map but big enough for her family to be respected. Lillian Beaumont is a strict and cunning half-elf, even though a wrong move for her will break her neck she is surprisingly graceful (for a 56-year-old royal).

## Background

Lillian was born to Gregor Beaumont, the well-respected doctor who served in the Centrelands for a short-while and Marie Britespire, the second heir to Britegate after her elder sister Maggie. Britegate was a picturesque town with a well defended and highly funded castle, so Lillian was brought up as relative royalty.

Although Lillian was brought up 'relative royalty', she would have to work a lot harder to gain the respect of Mordale.​ In 1196, when Lillian was 13 her mother pulled off one of the most politically advantageous marriages she could have possibly 'given' Lillian. She was to be married off to the King of Mordale, 42-year-old Leonard Moretherial. Leonard's old wife, Katherine Bones died after choking on some undercooked chicken (ironically the bones). Lillian was smart, she knew that she couldn't allow herself to be vulnerable, especially considering there was a widely known theory that Kath was murdered because she was unable to produce kin. Lillian would not make the same mistake. ​In that same year (1196), they have their first child together, named Paula Moretherial is born. In 1200, Lillian produces Leonard's first son, his heir to the throne, Winchester Moretherial.​ In 1202, Lillian produced a back-up heir, a second son, Draigo, Draigo Moretherial.​ In 1212, when Paula Moretherial was 16, Lillian's efforts to prolong her daughter's betrothal were cut short when her husband Leonard promised Borron of house Helter, that his son, Rodger (19) could marry her. Paula however revealed to her father that she had married in secret, to James of House Warner, brother of Lord Tomland of House Warner. Leonard desperately tried to renegotiate with House Helter but eventually they had had enough and stormed the castle, killed James Warner and kidnapped, raped and murdered Paula Moretherial.​ In utter bereavement and disbelief at what Leonard had allowed to happen to her daughter, she poisoned him discretely in 1213.  In 1213, her eldest son Winchester Moretherial is crowned King of Mordale.​Winchester remains king for 5 years until 1218, when he hangs a priest who confesses that he raped and brutalised his daughter. The church, furious at what Winchester has done, spy on him for months and find conclusive evidence that he is in a homosexual relationship with an advisor (Shaun Aaron). One morning, the church arrives at Aaron's home finds Winchester laying with Aaron and arrests them both, not before killing Shaun Aaron, however. The church overpowered Mordale's efforts to stop them and they exciled Winchester for life, harbouring a hatred for the church, within Lillian.​ Finally her youngest child, Draigo Moretherial was crowned king in 1218 and has been King ever since.

## Campaign

#### Session 1:

Lillian was called to attendance by her son, Draigo Moretherial when the Pontifex Maximus, Nelson Driscol arrived. However, unknown to both Lillian and Draigo, Driscol was actually arriving with an arrest warrent for Lillian. Due to her anti-religious activities she's been investigated and it was found that she had poisioned her husband, the ex-King, King Leonard of Mordale. Lillian is arrested under the charges of high-treason and anti-religious activity. However, Draigo swiftly kills the Pontifex and his guards, stopping the arrest. Realising that he will be dethroned, Draigo places the mantal of blame upon Lillian and her bodyguard, Ezra Calahan (*Chris*). He helps smuggle them both out of the city and sends them to Dunn Keep where Draigo's personal friend 'Lord Simon Dunn' would shelter them. After very little discussion Lillian and Ezra arrive in Dunn Keep under the attendance of Lord Simon of Dunn Keep.

Ezra is however shafted with the responsibility of helping end a rebelion that is going on the area, Lillian feels the need to join him on his venture. They kill the rebels with the help of Baelor Thrygon (*Heath*) & Warren Painter who were employed by the King to end the rebelion. They are also joined by Mildew McNaughton (*Todd*), Lady of Dunn Keep who is being made to fight the rebelion as a punishment from her father, Simon. Similarly, they meet Siphos Crain (*Paul*) who was caught doing 'anti-religious activities' (magic) and has also been forced to help fight the rebels in return for his innoncence. They defeat the rebels and Lillian levels up to Level 2.

#### Session 2:

However after ending the minor rebelion they discover a murder caused by what they quickly find out is werewolf and feel a sense of duty to investigate. Eventually Siphos Crain admits that he is on a quest to find a series of books that contain dark magic that if they enter the wrong hands will destroy the world. Lillian and the rest of the party agree to join Siphos on his adventure and help him collect the books.

Lillian and the party then on their journey come across a series of undead creatures and during the fight Lillian sprain's her ancle and has to miss a full (irl) session. She does also level up to level 3 and she actually kills a creature.

#### Session 4:

Lillian, fully healed from her ancle injury comes back and her and the party head to the city of Leviathan because Baelor Thrygon has recieved a summons from the King. She learns that they also found out that one of the books is definately in Joiners Keep. Lillian and the party meet Warren Painter's wife, Julia Dane-Painter, and his children and she stays at the Painter's residence with Mildew McNaughton whilst Baelor, Ezra, Siphos, Warren and Baelor's squire, Jamie Plankton go visit the King. Mildew and Lillian wait for a while but then suspect something might have gone wrong and go the King's palace to see from a-far, the new pontifex Maximus, Malcolm Fame leaving the building. Realising that that must mean trouble they sneak into the palace and free the rest of the party from their prison (to find that Alastar Eustace had already done it). Lillian flashes and kills a guard. Then Lillian is charged with collecting Chester from the Painter's household for a plan of Baelors. After Baelor's plan goes well they set off to go to Joiner's Keep.
