Name: Dusk Rose Empress
Age: 18 (Actual Age 101)
Gender: Female
CHA: 5
APP: 3

Description: Empress stands at an average human height of 5'7", and is in at least peak physical condition.  Her body is lean and lithe as it has always been, but her recent extensive activity in the field has replaced most of her curves with tight, coiled muscle.  Her feminine secondary sex characteristics are not gone entirely, but they are notably smaller than before (to those who recall she even exists).  Her eyes are still crimson and red, with sparks of activity at the pupils, and her hair is still a light brown, lighter still now from exposure to the sun (along with her notably sun-kissed skin, no tanlines), and is now only shoulder-length and often loose or pulled into a ponytail with bangs.  Still no notable scars or markings, aside from a general look of intensity and something of a room-capturing aura, the air of a leader about her.

Clothing: Though still variable, she seems to look less like an officer in a nameless army than before.  Instead she has shown a preference for clothing influenced by the late Shogunate Era, with more modern boots and gauntlets as well, typidally several belts to hold several blades and a shield she can quickly equip.  That said, her legs are typically obscured by some type of robe or skirt over boots, and her upper body usually is her gauntlets, skintight sleeveless number that does reveal the curves she does have, and occasionally an additional robe over that.

History: Originally born a mere mortal of mortal parents in Lookshy, she was taken to Yu Shan as a teenager for training under other Chosens of Mars.  How fitting it would seem, that Dusk Rose Empress of Lookshy was to be kin to the Maiden of Battles, whom she learned had blessed and locked the fate of Lookshy from any true tampering by anyone other than Mars herself.  As she came to interact with both 'Faction's during her training, her memory of the 7th Legion would always be at the forefront of her mind, she'd remember how proud they were, how strong they were, how Mars must be so proud to see them.  As she learned the true history of Creation unedited by the hands of the Bronze Faction, she came to learn just how much the Realm had fallen, how decadent and weak the Dynasts had become, and how foolish the Bronze Faction was in trying to maintain their status quo, purely out of fear of no longer having control, a fear of change.  No, Creation could be better than that, Yu Shan could be better than that, and most importantly the Dragonbloods had so much more that they could be, those fools of Dynasts settling for a life of weakness and decadence when they could be great warriors, guardians, defenders... all things that ran in their blood and that they were born to do.

Empress eventually exalted, and through the Crimson Panoply of Victory she received further training and worked to get a relatively permanent placement in Lookshy, her home, where her parents had long ago died and even longer had forgotten they had even had a daughter to begin with, along with the rest of Creation.  She worked to steadily bolster the forces as a drillmaster or force commander over the years, occasionally aided by Gold Faction members whom - while she didn't necessarily buy into their views - she knew to be looking at the betterment of creation, much like she, and as such found some solace in working with similarly focused minds.  Now comes the present day where she's taken to leaving from Lookshy proper to explore the surrounding area, seeking some more challenge herself to sate her conflict and 'game' urges...
