Aurelia Blueblood

Aurelia Blueblood, or Lady Aurelia Blueblood-Spiritknight, is a kind and caring soul who is (mostly) levelheaded with a twinge of ferocity. She posses some knowledge of medicine and healing and will go out of her way to help those who need it. She spends most of her days building in Holy Verosia, hanging around Fornost or fishing at Northport. She is married to the previous King of Aurora, Rum the Spiritknight.

Origins
Aurelia was raised in the Kingdom of Affinity, a child of King Aulus X and Queen Seratoria, to the Blueblood royal family. Born a princess, she was spoiled as a child, being the youngest and only daughter. She has an older brother named Caelus.

When she was a teenager, her kingdom was attacked following centuries of fragile peace between her kingdom and a neighboring country. The war decimated the lives of many, tearing the kingdom down in the process. Aurelia's parents were killed in the attack, and she was escorted away from the ruins and separated from her brother.

As she fled her falling kingdom, the attackers chased her down in order to capture her. Aurelia managed to escape their grasp, but her guards were not so lucky. Alone, she ran as far as she could, leaving behind her country and her past.

Beginnings in Rathnir
Aurelia’s time spent in the wild changed her, turning her from a spoiled princess into a hardened scavenger. Being on her own for so long taught her what it was like to rely only on yourself, and she picked up some healing knowledge to deal with the wounds she gathered on her journey.

It was 6 years before she ventured upon Rathnir, stumbling across the Kingdom of Hälge, where she was welcomed in with open arms. There she built up her life and settled back into a normal routine, feeling at peace for the first time since she fled home.

Then one day, she received word from her brother, Caelus - who she had assumed perished in the war - saying that he was in Rathnir, secretly hiding away in the lands of Aurora. Aurelia would travel halfway across the world to meet with him, greeting him happily on her arrival.

A New Kingdom
Caelus would ask Aurelia for assistance in building up a Holy Land for Veros, the god they worshiped from home. He ached to bring back something familiar after all the hardship he faced fleeing Affinity. Aurelia agreed to help her brother and the two started their new journey together.

As they prepared the grounds for Veros, the knights of Aurora caught them, calling them squatters on their land. Caelus would meet with the King of Aurora  himself, asking for permission to continue building the Holy Land for his god. King Aurelian agreed to Caelus’ request and the pair rejoiced at their new home. Aurelia and Caelus would then be accepted into the Kingdom of Aurora as citizens, and given a grand tour of the capital city.

Aurelia settled into her new life, developing and aiding in the growth of the land they called Holy Verosia. Caelus was hired to build the land next to Verosia into a blossoming town. The siblings began to brainstorm their ideas and started building, creating plans for a palace to share as their primary home.

Her brother began practicing magic, brewing potions that gave the user abilities that the likes of the world had never seen before. One in particular, Affinity’s Demise, became a powerful tool for the Kingdom of Aurora. It also landed him in some precarious situations - a man tried to kill him once, claiming that the beast the potion could summon was something that needed to be stopped.

The man, wounded, was taken to the infirmary where Cale was able to question him more. Aurelia would arrive, looking for her brother. She would heal the man’s wounds, but not without sending him off with a threat: she had lost her brother once before, and would make sure that she never lost him again.

There, in the infirmary, is where she met Rum the SpiritKnight  for the first time. She offered to aid Rum in any situation where he might need some healing - there was a war  happening not too long after they met, after all.

Date with a Spiritknight
Rum would take her up on her offer more then once and the two grew close, chatting while Aurelia would patch up his wounds and broken bones. The bond between the two would grow and Rum would end up asking Aurelia on a date, to which she swiftly accepted.

He brought her all around the continent of Haven, showing her his favorite places. They stopped by Heart’s Bay to see Rum’s grave, as he had died once before in his fight with Entropy, the goddess of the void. They also visited Hapatmitas, the once capital of the Empire of Uldarash. Aurelia and Rum would sit in the palace and chat for hours, as Rum asked her about Affinity and what her life was like before Rathnir. At the end of their date, Aurelia would peck Rum on the cheek and ask to see him again.

The War for Northport
Before the two could go on their second date, however, war struck Aurora. The town of Northport was to be attacked by Ganeffstan, under a false claim that the city rightfully belonged to Ganeff. Having a home in the town, she grew worried, fearing the same fate for the town that befell her home. She expressed her concern to Rum, who promised her that he would do all that he could to defend Northport.

After two long and bloody battles, Rum would not come out of it unharmed. He was sent to the infirmary, where Aurelia rushed to his side to aid in his recovery. Thankfully, he wounds were nothing that couldn't be healed with some rest, and Aurelia felt at ease that he was finally safe.

Joining the Order
Feeling helpless in the battle, Aurelia joined the Order, the military of Aurora. She enlisted in the Medical Corps, determined to put her medicinal knowledge to good use. She found herself healing injured soldiers after battles and hard training sessions. The poor soldiers often needed stitches and broken bones set, which she assisted in. Rum would find himself hurt on many occasions and Aurelia would patch him up as she always did.

Fallen Angels
After the war, Aurora fell into relative peace. She continued to see Rum more often and he eventually asked her to be his. Aurelia continued to help her brother develop Holy Verosia and aid in the Fornost Infirmary. She began spending more time in the Auroran capital to be closer to Rum, who resided in the palace there.

Unfortunately, there was an angel of Pavlovich stalking through the citadel, attacking anyone it deemed blighted, including those who have died before and come back to life. Rum was attacked in his own bedroom. The angel appeared before him, slashing the knight from behind and disappeared as soon as it came. Aurelia rushed to his aid, but it was a very rare and special potion that Aurelian an Aurorii possessed that saved Rum's life.

Aurelia would not leave Rum's side after that, mostly to aid in his recovery but also to keep an eye on him in case the angel came back. She was terrified of losing him.

His Proposal
Without any word of the fallen angel for months, Rum eventually proposed to Aurelia in the hot springs of Heart's Bay [on June 3rd, 2023]. Her guard down with no word of an attack, Aurelia went away on camping trip with Vala "Rosé" Knight, Rum's niece, to try and get closer to some of his last remaining family. While gone, Rum and her brother Caelus were attacked by the angel, injuring them both.

When the two returned, she found Cale unconscious and Rum with a broken arm. She swore to Veros that she would not let this happen again, and began training with a sword gifted to her by Rum himself.

Marriage to Rum the Spiritknight
The two eventually got married in the Holy Verosia Temple [on August 26th, 2023]. Aurelia decided to hyphen her last name, becoming Aurelia "Chardonnay" Blueblood-Knight (often stylized as Blueblood-Spiritknight), as she is one of the last remaining members of her lineage. They had a wonderful reception inside the temple, graciously hosted by her brother and niece. It became one of the happiest days of her life.
