Constantina Zenobia Norsoutha

**Constantina Zenobia Norsoutha** (born Eon-U 4SB9,994), birth name **Constantina Elizabeth Carolina Demetria Zenobia August zu Norsoutha-Tomoshima** is an admiral in the Novayan Stellar Commonwealth Navy. Admiral Constantina leads the NSC Military Authority of Borealisopolis, also known as the Borealisopolis Protectorate, and is the most infamous adherent of the Fascist subideology known as Reformed National Socialism. Even though she is ineligible to become Grand Marshal, she is most comfortable with administering Borealisople.

## Biography

Admiral Constantina was born on Eon-U 4SB9,9994 to Spencer Ethan Norsoutha, a father of the cadet branch of the Norsoutha-Tomoshima families and a mother from an upper class military family; both were known for their dubious, questionable activities. During the time she is enrolled in a military academy she got pregnant at the age of 20, which resulted in the abortion of the illegitimate child by her father's orders, in direct contravention of the Comprehensive Anti-Abortion Acts and despite her saying she is willing to take full responsibility. After the abortion, she fled in the dead of night and had not returned for several months; it was during that timespan that she became entranced by the tenets of the Reformed National Socialist ideology, which holds influence over several worlds, residential fleets and residential gigastructures and megastructures as well as elements of the NSC Armed Forces and federal government. As a result, she joined the underground Reformed National Socialist movement and enrolled in a secretly pro-RefNatSoc military academy, graduating four years later and soon joined the NSC Navy.

During her time in the later stage of the five centuries long Novayan-Saiyanese War, Admiral Constantina experimented on how best she would be able to implement her own ideas as a RefNatSocist, culminating in the ambitions of reforming Novaya or, failing that, a small part of it; ideas that corruption, effeminate as well as dubious and questionable leaders, wannabe liberals and bloodthirsty hardliners must be removed and the formation of her clique of like-minded military personnel, civilian officials and other leaders; and the growth of RefNatSoc influence. It is through her influence that a few star systems adopted Reformed National Socialism, which soon spreads to neighboring star systems. Thirty years before the end of the war, an investigation into the RefNatSoc-aligned star systems by the Novayan government discovered the existence of the more insidious fascist subideology itself and discovering that one of the ideology's proponents was Admiral Constantina Zenobia Norsoutha, who disappeared when she was twenty years old. Realizing the harm would be done if removing her would result in an uprising as well as weakening the Novayan war efforts, federal representatives hurried to negotiate with her on what she wanted, even though the likelihood of her accepting their demands to abandon Reformed National Socialism is at an all-time low. She demanded that she be given a star system to administer as well as the investigation into her cadet branch family.

Prior to the arrest of her still-away and unawares family, she and a group of her armed henchmen made a visit to her old home, ransacked and looted it of all valuables minus the evidences and, upon seeing her returning family, had her henchmen take them hostage and give her own parents and hateful siblings a violent beatdown before leaving them alive to be arrested by the Federal Police Service and Federal Intelligence Service. The investigation of her cadet branch family ultimately revealed that it has engaged in outright corruption and graft, power abuses and parliamentary bribery as well as maintaining a large number of hospitals, megacorporations and large businesses that partook in reaping profits from the suffering of others and abortion of stillborn children, leading to a thirty three-years-long investigation and trial.

### Leader of Borealisople and continued involvement

After her two demands were met, Admiral Constantina and her clique moved to the cold world of Borealisopolis, known for the grand majority of its population centers being underdeveloped and the grand token minority being fully developed and ruled by corporate rulers whose monopolist businesses and armies of private military contractors and mercenaries profited from the misery of the underdeveloped locals and natives. Upon arriving, she gave the order to gather an army and fleet and large amount of supplies and equipment to take over Borealisopolis and the rest of the star system. Using her connections in the Reformed National Socialist movement, she gathered a massive military force which she then used to wage war against the corporate dogs, with military strategies, tactics and objectives made beforehand to prevent the corporate rulers' escape.

Upon destroying the corporate military forces and sending the corporate leaders and their lackeys to a maximum security prison with no hopes of them escaping, she and her clique set off to establish military rule over the world and the star system, with the military government consisting of herself at the top of the governmental pyramid as the leader, the military and bureaucrats at the middle as the administrators and security forces tasked with administering and protecting the protectorate, and the native rulers, militias and civilians at the bottom as the self-governing tasked with local administration and security.

## In-game (In-RP)

As the leader of the Military Authority of Borealisopolis, Admiral Constantina has a focus tree consisting of extensive reforms to the world (and in turn the Anoris star system) that favored the civilian sector as well as building up a highly professional though small military to rule over the Anoris star system.

She starts with the Fascist subideology of Reformed National Socialism, which makes her the most disliked across the Novayan Stellar Commonwealth, both in its sphere and inner, middle and outer circles; she was seconded by Admiral Audrey Norsoutha whose fascistic views, while making her hated by said circles, were only powered by her ardent anti-Sith stance, making her only tolerated. However, contrary to what people says about about her, Admiral Constantina is socially progressive and has a "family first" policy, shown in several focii which supported the family as a social unit, banned abortion (due to her finding out that the surgery meant to save her stillborn child was in fact an abortion in disguise) and allowed the use of thaumaturgy to maintain the stillborn's lives), and maintained a "must be approved" divorce system. Some focii also saw her outright banning pregnant women from having drugs, alcohol and other dangerous substances and forbidding them from leaving their homes during their pregnancy. To help maintain the family, Admiral Constantina may also invest in free universal education and free universal healthcare, social safety net, and greater job securities at the cost of proportional GDP costs.

The foreign influence sub-tree contains focii for increasing the influence of Reformed National Socialism to the rest of the Anoris Sector and later the Talakinis Star Region, which would see the abolition of abortion, the implementation of the "family first" social progressive policies, free education and healthcare, greater support for small and medium businesses, as well as professional military and police security. Her security sub-tree focused on updating and upgrading its military and security forces such as developing a military-industrial complex (both orbital, interstellar and planetary), opening up military schools, expanding the local militias and police forces, and building up a reserve force system consisting of local militiamen, police officers and military personnel. Her social development sub-tree focuses on the development of local villages into towns, slow yet methodical introduction of modern para/technology, construction of jails and prisons, hospitals, schools, industries and houses, and eventually create the NetzPAM (German: *Netzwerk des Protektoratsamtes für Militärforschung*, English: *Network of the Protectorate Office for Military Research*), the equivalent to but the most advanced pseudo-successor of the NSC's Network of the Federal Bureau for Military Research, which connects schools and government offices across the Protectorate; NetzPAM's creation and adoption caused a ramification where the NetFBMR would later adapt to NetzPAM and, as a result, allow for the modernization of the NSC Armed Forces.

While Admiral Constantina is a Reformed National Socialist, a focus tree-activated event chain will allow people in exploring her painful past and the reasons why she has adopted Reformed National Socialism as a political ideology in the first place. While the options chosen in the dialogue events doesn't have any effect nor change her ideology, the words spoken to Admiral Constantina is enough to help her get out out of the trauma that defined her past. Though the policies she implemented and she herself remain Reformed National Socialist, the Borealisopolis Protectorate's ideology changed from Fascism (Reformed National Socialism) to Despotism (Military Junta), fully vindicating her of most allegations and accusations. Regardless, this doesn't stop her (and the rest of her government) from calling out and condemning the Western world for all their hypocrisies, especially the USA for having jaded views on free universal healthcare being "a form of communism" and for retaining a pro-abortion stance, which triggered the ire of the Admiral herself.
