## History

### Early Life

Tula was born into a family heavily focused on military career and history. Generations of generations served Poseidonis as soldiers, some of them in higher ranks, others in the lower ones. As the only daughter of her parents, Tula’s mother Lianna followed in that line and became a soldier, a palace guard to be more precise. She worked close to the king and not too rarely spent hours with him and others in one room, eventually attracting each other’s attention. While Orvax was already king and married to Queen Atlanna, he and Lianna started a momentary affair which led to her getting pregnant with his child. Tula. The affair was ended immediately, Lianna demoted and sent to patrol and guard the outer borders of Poseidonis, as far away from the king as she could be until she gave birth to her daughter.

Tula grew up having a happy childhood and enjoyed day after day even without a father figure in her life. Her mother picked up her work as a soldier after her daughter was old enough to go to school. From a young age on Tula got taught and trained the military way. There was no question she would follow in her mother’s footsteps and become a soldier one day. She was her idol, the person she looked up to, and so was it that her whole life got flipped upside down just a couple days after her 13th birthday. On a day off, Lianna wanted to take her daughter to a secret place, far away from Poseidonis, and way closer to the surface than she had ever been. On the way the two encountered a group of heavily armed individuals, looking much like Atlanteans but with less skillful movement in the water. Humans. While her mother faced them with friendly intentions, the humans, led by a man wearing a high-tech suit, immediately attacked her. Lianna, bearing no weaponry that day, was outnumbered and murdered in cold blood while she sacrificed herself so her daughter could escape. Tula did as her mother told her and fled the scene in horror, not turning around once.

When she arrived at the palace completely distraught she was urged to bring the news forth to the king. After hearing about the incident and remembering the name Lianna after Tula told him the name of her mother, Orvax, who was considered to be more cold-hearted than anything else, decided to take the young orphan in and let her live at the palace. Not among the royals, but the guards and soldiers. She mourned the death of her mother for a long time, but the day came where this sadness eventually turned into hate. Hate for the surface dwellers, for the surface in general. Among the royal family no one truly acknowledged her completely, apart from one member who started to care for her more than anyone else. Prince Orm quickly gained her trust and the two half siblings formed a tight bond over time. Tula looked up to her big brother who, like their father, was considered a cruel man. Though, not once to her. She looked past his outward appearance and got to know the real person behind the cold hearted facade.

She trained harder than before and the older she got, the better her skill set got too. I’m fact Tula was far more skilled and hard-working than anyone else in her training group which eventually came to the attention of Poseidonis' best soldiers. The Drift. An elite team of Atlantean black ops specialists regarded as the best warriors of Atlantis. Proving her prowess, Tula was then taken in and trained privately for the purpose of becoming one of them, which she eventually did at the age of 19. Around the same time, Y'Mera Xebella, Princess of Xebel, joined the palace as an ambassador of the Kingdom of Xebel to King Orvax’s court. The two women got along pretty well and formed a friendship that blossomed even more over time. Tula did not only follow in her mother’s footsteps, she went even beyond what anyone in her family on the maternal side had ever accomplished. She got promoted to the Commander of the Drift at the age of 21. From then on she led the special unit, loyal to her king until the day he went missing, and further on. Her disdain for the surface never alleviated, if anything it only got worse.
