Alexandria J. Ranale

Alexandria Ranale is the last known member of the House Ranale and is the sole heir/leader of said family. While she works as the Royal Advisor of the Zuntae Royal Family, she is a mortician at heart and has spent many a time with corpses.

Appearance
Alexandria Ranale is a 5'6" human. She has long, relatively straight brown hair with bangs that cover her forehead. Her right eye is a golden yellow, while her left is shining silver, both of which are the only thing you can see when looking at her. He clothing consists of a leather apron over a one-piece dress without sleeves that reach past her knees; this dress also has a high collar to hide her mouth and act as a 'mask.' she wears black boots that cover the rest of the way, and she wears brown leather gloves to keep her hands clean.

On her left shoulder, she has a tattoo of the Morticians guild she used to be a part of, and other than her magic necromancy book, it is the only thing left to remind her of her father.

Personality
Alexandria is generally seen as a quiet person who likes to work in her mortuary preparing bodies and reading her books, but this isn't always the case, especially with key members of Voastralis. She can get excited, however, with topics she finds fascinating or even about how cool Morgrivaine Zuntae is for taking her with him after her father died.

You might expect that she would be very secluded from other members in Voastralis, but she often can be seen conversing with other members. While she is familiar with other members associated with the Crown of Voastralis, the same can't be said about other people. She will typically reply to strangers with strings of nodding rather than talking to them directly. She most certainly always prefers another close companion around her when speaking with strangers.

Being a mortician who grew up alone, for the most part, also has its quirks. She is fascinated with the deceased's bodies and puts them, as she puts it, "To rest for all eternity feeling all nice inside." If there is anything she could go on about for hours at a time, it's embalming practices and how nice it is to fix them up for their funeral.

Parents
Born to parents Calarus B. Ranale and Clairabelle F. Ranale, Alexandria has only known her father, a mortician for the crown. Her mother has been absent ever since she can remember, with only a name to know. Alexandria doesn't know how to feel about her mother and most likely never will unless something happens to bring them together.

Alexandria's father raised her by himself and tried to meet both goals of being a mother and father figure. He wasn't very good at it, but he tried his best. He kept her close and out of trouble and even taught Alexandria all he knew. He was a mortician and a necromancer, with his writings stored within his book known as the Fer Nochius Requiem. The necromancy described was imperfect, but there are side effects to bringing someone back to life. This did not stop him from documenting his findings in his book; now, those teachings lay in the hands of Calarus' daughter, Alexandria.

Childhood
Alexandria was born on an island chain nation called Dularia in the Upper Adalia region, better known as the main island in the chain.

Alexandria's childhood was monotonous; her father didn't know how to raise her when he was working, so at around age three, he decided to start taking her to his work and teach her to be a mortician. Ever since that day, she'd worked around the clock with her father in the mortuary. Did this affect her mental state? Maybe, but "Doing a job is doing a job, so don't fret over the specifics." that is what her father always said. As she got older, she would help her father out more and more, learning new practices and finding out her father was on the search for immortality using his book that Alexandria only got to read every once in a while.

Since she was always working in the mortuary, Alexandria didn't have many friends or a social life outside the royal palace where she and her father worked. Alexandria's father had also paid tutors to help with her education while she was with him. The tutors he hired taught her basic mathematics, the liberal arts, the sciences (mainly chemistry for mortuary practices), the basic history of the island chain where she lived, and some introduction to how the current government in Dularia worked.

Everything went as usual for years until one day, when Alexandria was 16, her father died protecting Prince Morgrivaine Zuntae while a revolt occurred in Dularia. His dying words were for the Prince to take care of his daughter, and he passed away after the two had escaped. They soon got on a boat and sailed away from the island to find a place to settle and recuperate.

Present Day
Currently, Alexandria is at the side of the Crowned Prince of Voastralis, trying to learn the Fer Nochius Requiem and help the one person that saved her from the people that exiled her from the island chain of Dularia. She continues what her father started and will see it to the end.
