Tiffany Canalopin

Tiffany Canalopin, known as "The Last Dragon", is the Duchess of Greater Nidaros. Having been a key figure in the Drakeslands, as the former and last leader of Regnum Drakaes, and the Drakaen Consortium, and after having played an important role in the Kingdom of Nidaros. Having started out in New Awm, where she led a rebellion against a tyrannical monarch, she grew to taking over the Drakaen empire, and at the cusp of its fall, where she did her best to maintain the brittle and ruined nation, until she at long last dissolved it.

''"They wanted freedom, and I would oblige. I knew they would look upon my decision with kindness or they would call me weak, too weak to do what needed to be done, but in truth it was spite. I could have sided with either Jorvick or New Haven-Puerto Amarillo, hell i could've summoned my grandfather's forces from Preyllea, and filled Drakaen fields with blood. For if I called they would answer. But no, there would be no blood spilt on my behest." -'' Fall of Drakaes, Tiffany Canalopin

Early Life
Not much is known of Tiffany's early life, for she is seldom to speak of it, though she has shared that she is not a normal human, and due to her father Violet, whom was a spirit, Tiffany herself is part spirit, though its not from her father she has an aura of unending youth. Tiffany never knew her mother, and any attempts to get more info on her was met with reluctance from her father.

The descripitions Tiffany has given of her homeplace is that it is a far away land, a dark city, with unusually tall buildings all surrounding a large spire at its center. It to her accord was a city of the corrupt with dark clouds and darker minds. Tiffany herself has said that her status was one of higher nobility, and that she was well groomed to that lavish lifestyle.

Arrival in Rathnir
When asked how she and her father arrived in Rathnir, the answer has never really been clear. All she could remember was a bright light, and a fall. The sailors of New Awm found her and her father on the beach, wet and covered in what they described as red slime. The pair was brought up to the city itself, and once they came to their senses were struck by the strange beauty of the floating city.

It did not take long for the pair to become useful, as the small nation was in a diplomatic crisis with their neighbors. With their help the dire situation was calmed somewhat, however the nation seemed to be in great instability because of its leader. Whom seemed more tyrant than leader. And so, as quickly as they had come and become useful, they now found themself conspiring with many of the higher ups to overthrow the tyrants and for a republic to take its place.

Due to her hot blooded nature, Tiffany quickly became a figurehead for the revolutionary movement, for daring to stand up to the tyranical king. She was also the one who fashioned a flag of their defiance against the dictator.

All were not as it seemed though, as Tiffany and her father learnt there was bigger plot than the one they were apart of, many of the nobles of New Awm whom had been plotting to overthrow the ruler, had plans to instead put in place his son as the new ruler. It became a game of cloak and dagger, misinformation and misleading. The now significantly smaller plot to get rid of the monarchy all together vs the larger plot to just replace one dictator with another.

Eventually the revolution did succeed however, and inplace of the dictator, was a democratically elected council, who together ran the nation. Tiffany herself became the most popular of the elected council. Thus New Awm found itself in a long period of peace, and growth. Something the small nation who had been on the brink of extermination time and time again needed.

The Great Expedition
It was during this period of peace and growth, that the tales of the great expedition became more popular. A large exodus that had happened some time ago, of a nation quite different, and not restricted to one floating island. It was a resurgent of the romantic tales of discovery and establishing something more for yourself that caught Tiffany's interest, as she wished for more in life than New Awm could offer.

Not long after she had resigned from her position within New Awm, and said goodbye to her father, before she booked passage across the sea.
