Pomponia

Pomponia is the only female Margrave on the continent of Parasia. She rules the province of Umberly. Her husband had passed away five years prior and she has held power ever since.

Rumours
There are many rumours surrounding Pomponia. It is rumoured that her husband was an abusive and adulterous man. It is said that once Pomponia became aware that her husband was enforcing the law jus primae noctis, that she brutally murdered him. It is believed that she drugged her husband until he was paralyzed and then strangled him.

It is also rumoured that she slayed every male child that she gave birth to to make sure that male heir could take her throne. She had four female children.

Reign
Pomponia proved herself to be an effective and popular ruler within her Province. All of her people adore her and she is a fair and effective Margrave. In terms of what other Margraves and even the Volcarn think of her, is negative. No other Margrave likes the fact that there is a female Margrave and they particularly dislike the fact that she is directly involved with her army. She marches with her army and often wears her own armour. She has survived many assassination attempts from other Margraves and other families of which wish to gain power. The Volcarn will not directly remove her because of how well she rules and how loyal her people are to her.
