August Remorse

**August Remorse** (12 August, 1961 – 12 August 1996) was a female politician, who had ancestral ties to the House of Hohenzollern as a direct descendant; thus making her related to the last rulers of the German Empire during WWI. A Corthian-British-Canadian politician, with strong German ancestry, she was a brilliant woman; during her lifetime, she led the Nationalist Party during the early stages of the **Era of the Two Sisters**, her name became known in every Household across the Republic of Corthe Star. The first cousin of Margaret Hohenzollern, August was a motivating speaker and was often greeted with cheers from waving crowds of people; she is said to be the greatest politician of the early parts of the **Era of the Two Sisters**. She died during the Third August Revolution in 12 August, 1996 due to having her drink poisoned by a group of vengeful Monarchists who desired to revert the Republic back to a Monarchical Government; the people responsible for her death were captured, put on trial, and then executed.

## Appearance

August was a middle-aged woman with white hair that is usually pinned up, a petite build and acid-green eyes. She typically dressed in a white dress-shirt, black dress pants, and a black dress jacket; she also wears black slacks as her choice of footwear. Around her forehead rested a circlet with a stone engraved with the Celtic runes for Strength and Honor. She was also rather short for her actual age of 35, standing at a mere 4`11".

## Personality

Perhaps the most famous Politician of the early years of the **Era of the Two Sisters**, August was described in life as a powerful motivational speaker; she also displayed shrewdness and occasionally callousness when dealing with the Monarchists who plagued the country in the early 1990`s. Eagle-eyed, sharp, and observant, she was one of the most shrewd politicians during the early stages of the current era; in fact, her position as Head of the Nationalist Party is proof of this. She held a strong loyalty towards the Republic and the countless innocents who were living in the Republic at the time of her tenure as Head of the Nationalist Party; she held a innate love for the Bagpipes, even endorsing a theater trope who played them for her, the Nationalist Party, as well as the President, Vice-President, and the Presidential Family.
