The circumstances of the Queen's condition remain mysterious, with no clear path to recovery yet discovered. Princess Ashlee witnessed the full scope of [[Renald the Sahdowmaster|the Shadow Master]]'s corruption and deception, including the revelation that some of the kingdom's most trusted allies had been compromised or controlled. ### Post-Battle Leadership Following the defeat of [[Renald the Sahdowmaster|the Shadow Master]] and the great battle that saw smoke, explosions, and dragons fighting above the waters near the isles, Princess Ashlee has stepped into a leadership role: - **Task Force Leadership:** She assembled and leads a task force dedicated to finding a cure for Queen Flavia's coma, working alongside her father the King - **Ceremonial Duties:** She performed the formal recognition of [[The Heralds of Silver]], bestowing upon them the Medal of Heroism - **Diplomatic Role:** She has taken on meeting with key figures and making important decisions in her mother's absence ### [[The Heralds of Silver]] Recognition Princess Ashlee personally honored [[The Heralds of Silver]] in a grand ceremony at the castle. She bestowed upon them the coveted Medal of Heroism, described as: - Made from the purest silver - Intricately etched with the words "For Courage, Loyalty, and Unwavering Spirit" - Adorned with a crest of a majestic silver dragon flying over rippling water - Surrounded by five deep red gems inlaid along its edges The heroes she honored included: - [[Ahria Maritani]] (The Witch of the North) - [[Aeriloth (Swift) - The Watcher in the Woods|Swift]] (The Shadow Slayer, Dragon Slayer) - Danaria (who declined the medal) - Gretch - Others from the party ### Jia's Interrogation Princess Ashlee personally visited Jia in her cell in the dungeons. During this visit, Jia witnessed only "hate and anger" in the Princess's eyes - understandable given what Jia had done while under [[Renald the Sahdowmaster|the Shadow Master]]'s control. Despite her anger, Princess Ashlee appears to be handling the interrogation and intelligence gathering professionally, as Jia's information proved crucial in revealing: - [[Renald the Sahdowmaster|Renald]]'s ([[Renald the Sahdowmaster|the Shadow Master]]'s) alliance with [[Anam]] ([[Anam|The Withered One]]) - The soul-gathering operation for the phylactery - The Brimstone Wraith's involvement in the conspiracy ## Personality & Character ### Visible Traits - **Anger and Grief:** Shows strong emotions when confronting those who betrayed the kingdom, particularly during her visit to Jia's cell - **Duty-Focused:** Despite personal grief over her mother's condition, she continues performing royal duties - **Determined:** Actively working to find a cure for her mother rather than giving in to despair ### Relationships - **[[King Ednon Leemax of Silvervale|King Ednon]] Leemax (Father):** Works closely with him on the task force to cure Queen Flavia. As a Level 14 Fighter, her father provides the martial strength while she likely provides divine insight and healing knowledge. - **Queen Flavia Leemax (Mother):** Currently in deep coma. Ashlee is devoted to finding a cure. The tragic revelation that her mother was corrupted by [[Renald the Sahdowmaster|the Shadow Master]] adds a complex layer of betrayal and grief to her situation. - **Prince Artorious Leemax (Brother, Age 29):** A Level 15 Fighter, one year older than Ashlee. His role in the current crisis is unclear. - **Princess Spixi Leemax (Sister, Age 18):** A young Level 6 Wizard, ten years younger than Ashlee. As the youngest member of the royal family, she may need protection and guidance during this turbulent time. - **The [[The Heralds of Silver|Heralds of Silver]]:** Grateful for their heroism in saving the city and uncovering [[Renald the Sahdowmaster|the Shadow Master]]'s plot - **Jia:** Holds understandable hatred toward the former Shadow Master servant, though receives her intelligence professionally ## Current Situation Princess Ashlee is managing multiple crises simultaneously: 1. **Medical Crisis:** Her mother remains in an unbreakable coma 2. **Military Threat:** [[Silvervale - Port City of South Angoria|Silvervale]]'s top warriors and generals are deployed fighting devils and undead, leaving the city potentially vulnerable 3. **Internal Security:** Dealing with the aftermath of [[Renald the Sahdowmaster|the Shadow Master]]'s infiltration and ensuring no other corrupted individuals remain 4. **Public Morale:** Maintaining citizen confidence while managing these threats The kingdom has effectively rallied around [[The Heralds of Silver]] as symbols of hope, with citizens believing they will protect [[Silvervale - Port City of South Angoria|Silvervale]] from the coming army of devils. ## Unknown Details Several aspects of Princess Ashlee's situation remain unclear: - What deity does she serve as a cleric? (Given [[Silvervale - Port City of South Angoria|Silvervale]]'s prominence, likely [[Perserphina]], [[Lialandra]], or another major deity) - What is her clerical domain? - Did she know about her mother's corruption before the revelation? - What are her specific abilities and spells as a 15th level cleric? - What role did she play during the actual battle against [[Renald the Sahdowmaster|the Shadow Master]]? - Does she have any romantic relationships or suitors? - What is her relationship with the various temples and churches in [[Silvervale - Port City of South Angoria|Silvervale]]? ## Campaign Significance Princess Ashlee represents the continuity of [[Silvervale - Port City of South Angoria|Silvervale]]'s government during a time of crisis. Her presence ensures that despite the Queen's incapacitation and the King's focus on finding a cure, the kingdom continues to function. Her recognition of The [[The Heralds of Silver|Heralds of Silver]] legitimized them as official protectors of [[Silvervale - Port City of South Angoria|Silvervale]] and raised their profile significantly among the citizenry. Her emotional response to Jia, combined with her professional handling of the interrogation, suggests a young royal learning to balance personal feelings with the needs of statecraft - a character potentially growing into greater responsibility through crisis.
