Queen Charlotte Björk

Queen Charlotte was born Charlotte Maria Eriksson in the average sized city of Johnansburg as the daughter of Duke Aleksander Friedrich Eriksson and Duchess Helga Isabelle Eriksson. She spent most of her early childhood in her family home, especially among her families gardens. She was initially cared for by several different governesses and nannies who taught her much about etiquette and manners. While unable to pick up skills such as knitting and baking, she developed a passion for public speaking and attending to the various needs of her homes servants.

When Charlotte turned 13 she graduated from her life at home to be sent forth to The Royal Academy in the capital city of Truvaria. Accompanied only by a single loyal butler and companion she made her home in the capital. At The Royal Academy she mingled with the other present nobility and even a few members of the extant Royal House of Bjork. When she was sixteen she met and developed an intense rivalry and hatred for Duchess Nadja Akerman which persisted until Nadja's death some years later.

At 18 Charlotte graduated from The Royal Academy as second in her class, the first being her rival Nadja Akerman. Charlotte returned to her family home where her family sought out potential partners of fitting status for her. During this time she participated closely in the matchmaking process and was given a degree of choice unusual for women from aristocratic families. At 21 she was betrothed to then 46 year old King of The Frozen Forest, Alvor of the House of Bjork. The two were married the following year in a grand ceremony at The Royal Palace

As Queen Charlotte had to navigate the intrigue and scandals of the royal court. One of her first acts was purging the royal staff of those she perceived of being disloyal or factionalist-replacing them with those who would be grateful to her and her husband. She developed strong friendships with key powerplayers in the palace, including the head of the Royal Guard, Zakarias Rehn and Defense Minister Samuel Norberg. She spent much of her time administering to her husbands duties internationally and domestically, visiting the colonies on many occasions and pushing for greater accommodations overseas for Frozen Forestrian military personnel.

Charlotte gave birth to a son on March 3rd 1990. The boy was named Ivan and became Crown Prince, first in line for the throne. As was customary Charlotte passed the child on to wet nurses, though would spent much time with her son when not busy with her duties and thus developed a good relation with her young son. On January 14th 1997 Charlotte gave birth to her second child, a daughter whom was named Freja. While much more distant with Freja than she was with Ivan, the girl developed to be quite similar to her mother in her young age both in appearance and personality. On April 20th 1999 Charlotte gave birth to her third and final child, a son who was named Ari.

The birth of Ari was especially difficult for Charlotte and led her to become incredibly sick. While doctors were not able to diagnose her illness, it eventually weakened Charlotte until finally on May 5th, 2000 Charlotte passed away in The Royal Palace.
