Jeanne Frith Lamdugard

The personal emblem of Jeanne Frith Lamdugard.

**Jeanne Frith Lamdugard** is the current *Brant Þeódcwén*, or High Queen in the Gothic tongue, of noble Questoris Imperialis House Lamdugard. Born in the year 998 of millennium forty one upon the planet of Magna Curia Jeanne became a sworn member of the Order of The Eternal Emperor from a young age, as her mother was the *Grant Maistrece* of the order at the time of her birth. However, at the time of her mothers passing at the hands of a Chaos Warlord Titan Jeanne ascended to command the Order that had been founded by her ancestors all those millennium ago. However, even as *Grant Maistrece* of the ORder Jeanne still stands the *Brant Þeódcwén* of her house and first and foremost an Imperial Knight in service to the Emperor.

## History

Brant Þeódcwén Jeanne Frith Lamdugard currently lives upon the planet of Magna Curia, the same planet that saw her birth one hundred and thirteen years ago. Born to the last Brant Þeódcwén Jeanne's life was comfortable if intense. Like any other Imperial Knight Pilot Jeanne's childhood was full of lessons, training, and drills. However, as the Grant Maistrece of the Order of The Eternal Emperor Jeanne's childhood was also full of intense tuition regarding how to lead the order, get the best from it's members and ensure that the order remained for another ten millenium

This meant the young girl didn't get to make many friends but the few she did make were loyal to a fault and Jeanne was incredibly protective of them. While she was meant to be a symbol of the order collaborative nature there was few occasions where the girl got into a fight with her peers. Every time this happened it was due to Jeanne protecting her friends. Moreover, at that young age Jeanne had received more training then her peers so the fights were quickly over.

However, at the age of twenty six Jeanne truly joined her families ranks. It was at this age that Jeanne was bestowed Caeruleus Angelus, her Imperial Knight armour, and it was at this age that Jeanne truly became a Knight of the Imperium and of the Order. She lead units of her family into battle, her fought alongside knights from the Order and she saw the beauty of the Emperor's Imperium.

For thirty five years Jeanne fought as a member of the Eternal Emperor, under the command of her mother and as an oath bound knight of the Order. However, in Jeanne's fifty fifth year Jeanne's mother was cut down on the field of battle by a Chaos Warlord Titan. The queen died there on the blood soaked field of battle and thus the title passed down to Jeanne. So Jeanne ascended from an oath bound knight of the order to the Brant Þeódcwén at its head.

As the Brant Þeódcwén Jeanne has made many changes to the Order. While, over the years, the order has been becoming more and more of a collaborative, protective, aid giving order Jeanne has given it a titanic push in that direction. It was she who implemented the order's laws, it was she who started to actively reach out to Knightly houses and it was she who made the order a unified force to be rezoned with.

These days Jeanne is still an active member of the Order. She can be found in the battlefield, involved in training and even aiding in reclaiming Knight Worlds from the dark forces that may hold them. The future of Jeanne, the order and her house is known only to the Emperor...and Jeanne is looking forward to seeing where it may lead her

## Appearance

Standing at five food six inches in height Jeanne is a woman in possession of a slender, and well muscled, physique. Most of her one hundred and thirty two pounds of weight come from her trained muscles, as she is tonned and possessing of little fat. The vast majority of Jeanne's muscle mass is focused around her core, and her legs...the build only achievable by the pilot of an Imperial Knight.

Her bright white hair falls to her shoulders in straight strands. Jeanne has chosen to wear it pulled over her head, so as to fall completely on the right side of her face. The hair is thick, well tended and well looked after. Moreover, it's colour stands in stark contrast to her warm, somewhat dark brown skin. Her skin is well cared for but over the years has gained a number of wrinkles at the corners of her eyes, at the corners of her mouth and across the brow of her head. Jeanne also possesses a number of small scars smattered across her body; A small one on her right cheek, one on her right bicep, one on her throat, and on the left side of her head, the side with her hair pulled away.

Jeanne's armour is always well cared for; polished, oiled and any damage quickly repaired. She wears her armour, complete with her weapons, the vast majority of the time. However, when she makes the decision to doff her armour she can be found wearing an ankle length green sleeveless dress edged in dark purple, a pink under tunic, a wide brown leather belt, heeled leather boots, a white wimple and her glasses. However, even when wearing these Jeanne wears a thin hidden armour under her clothes, and her pistol in an ankle holster.

Jeanne's knight is a unique construction known as a Del'acier-class Knight Vistemur Imperial Knight. The knight marches to war with a Acheron-Pattern Flame Cannon on the right arm and a Castigator Bolt Cannon on the left. The knight is known as Caeruleus Angelus and its livery has been carefully by Jeanne. Each colour holds a meaning and its positioning carefully chosen. The blue body of the knight represents her loyalty to her house, the Order and the Imperium along with her faith in the same. The purple of her command throne signifies her moderation of action and her sovereignty with her house. The green and maroon of her gorget was chosen to signify her loyalty and her fortitude and martial skill. The knight holds a number of other colours dotted over its armour, each with a meaning, and between the knights legs hangs Jeanne's personal banner. The banner holds her full house crest, her personal emblem and a number of her most prestigious honours.

## Personality

Jeanne is a caring, almost motherly, woman. She will protect the members of her house, her order, and those she cares about with everything she can give. The woman has been found, on multiple occasions, wandering the corridors of The Titan ensuring all is going well, everyone is happy, and quickly quashing any confrontations.

However, to say that Jeanne is caring isn't to say is is unwilling to fight if the needs arises. She will fight tooth and nail to protect those she cares about, having even done that multiple times in the past. Moreover, she has physically intervened in a number of fights within The titan, even having to fight herself to break them up. Although her guards, her officers or other members of the Order often operate on her behalf she has, in the past, had to throw fists with a, soon to be, ex-member of the Order. The is mainly when the member instigates a fight, is caught breaking the Laws and refusing to atone, or even dishonouring other members, the Order, or the staff and then getting aggressive when confronted. On a small number of cases Jeanne has beaten down an ex-member before throwing them, and their guard, off the planet. On a tiny number of occasions she has even had to ban a household all together.

## Abilities and Traits

Jeanne is a somewhat skilled markswoman. Specialising in the use of smaller pistols she is able to fire while at a full sprint while still maintaining accuracy. She is also able to make use of rifles and other firearms but prefers a pistol for personal reasons. However, when it comes to unarmoured combat Jeanne isn't the most skilled, easily over powered by many people. It's for this reason that she prefers to talk someone down so she is able to get in close before finishing the fight in one strike or one shot.

It is for this reason that Jeanne is quite the skilled diplomat. As the head of House Lamdugard and Order of The Eternal Emperor she has to be able to placate people through nothing more than her words but also able to convince people to take up arms when the need arises. She has been trained to do this from the first moment she could speak and accompanied her parents on many a diplomatic mission before going on her first solo one.

When it comes to piloting her Knight Armour Jeanne is a true force to be reckoned with. Knowing the armours limits, the machine spirits will and the capabilities of the system Jeanne is able to push the construction right to the limit...a hair's width away from falling apart around her. She is able to do things with her armour that seem impossible for such a titanic construction.

Jeanne, through her House, has close connections with the Adeptus Mechanicus, specifically the Forge World of Del'acier and the Tech-Priests that reside there. She has a tiny amount of Adeptus Mechanicus training herself, just enough to be able to maintain her armour without the constant need for a Tech-Priest to watch over her shoulder.
