Victra au Julii

Golden Son

A 27-year-old Gold woman of tall stature and long angular build like a spearhead cooled from the forge, heavier of bone than her sister with strong slim shoulders and a powerful frame. Jagged hair falls just past ears pierced with jade, framing a luminous face marked by many earned scars that contrast with her otherwise faultless features. Her heavy deeply set eyes can flash with annoyance, wrath, joy or vulnerable gentleness while her wide sensual mouth often forms cruel smiles or shapes insults, her scarred hands and severe expression accented by many jade rings. She moves with haughty confidence whether wearing gold pauldrons and black armor, a white fur pelt, or immodest elegant dress.

• Brokers strategic deals for Adrius au Augustus (the Jackal) as a professional ally.
• Serves as a warrior ally to Darrow with underlying romantic tension despite family conflicts.
• Strained relationship with half-sister Antonia au Sevima, who betrays the Augustus clan.
• Displays haughty confidence and combat prowess in gold pauldrons and black armor.

Morning Star: Book III of the Red Rising Trilogy

A towering 2.1 meter tall woman with fair skin, a powerful muscular and lithe build, broad shoulders, and a haughty swaying walk. Her white-blond hair falls in jagged locks or is bound in a tight ponytail around a face of dramatic beauty with sharp features and piercing gold eyes. She possesses immense strength, able to bench press nearly 300 kilos, and her body displays a lifetime of combat with a half dozen diagonal razor scars across her flat belly, more than a dozen on her sword arm, several on her face neck and clavicle, a waxy melted acid scar covering her lower back, and two bullet scars at the top of her spine. She stands proud and enigmatic in a black uniform with the Julii sun on her breast, fiery orange stripe down the pants, gold buttons, and jade earrings dangling from her ears or clad in heavy armor with a frightening bird helmet.
