Princess_Lisanna

(Art is not mine and will be taken down if requested)
Part of the TheDunAltList, based off a Counter:Side character but reimagined a bunch - although I'm not attached to it, as the images showing off a more modern/student version of her attests to.
--------------------------------


Name: Lisanna Charlemagne
Age: 19
Height: 5'10"

The princess-in-exile of a large empire, Lisanna was the first in line to be Queen as her father taught her the reins and complicated politics of the monarchy. For her 18th birthday, she was handed the sword that was held to be the proof of their royal heritage, Lightbreaker - coming with its own legend stating it would bestow great power on the line in the land's darkest hours.
Lis herself grew up in a time of peace, thinking that would just be another story to tell to her successor when the time came to pass down her heritage. But a surprise, massive invasion led by both a rival nation and the betrayal of a long term ally meant that the last time she saw the capital city she called home was in the middle of night as it burned, riding on horseback, with only a few day worth of survival rations and that precious heirloom of a sword on her person, now glowing with power after she struck down a pair of knights meant to capture her with far more ease than she expected.

A Tale of Light and Fiery Revenge: It's been several months since then, and Lisanna has been on a fiery rampage of debates, deal making, and even the occasional quest in remaining allied nations riling up a patchwork network of alliances and deals for an army capable of taking her home back, even as she may make deals that may come with consequences down the line...

A Girl Who Needs Friends: But if you back to when it was just several weeks, Lis having gotten used to her sword's awakening but still unsure, having finally escaped to more friendly territory. But she's still dogged by enemy pursuers as hindered as they may be, and just because she's in a land where she can show her face freely doesn't mean it's a good idea...

The Great Escape: Or perhaps she's still fresh and new to surviving, making her way through regions previously nothing more than a place on a map for her at her age, trying to keep herself disguised not knowing who may be hunting for her...

(And potentially any other idea you may have. I'm even up for putting her in space or more modern settings if ya want.)

Abilities and Equipment
Lisanna herself is your bog standard fantasy princess, albeit one with more fighting skills than usual: she's not fighting off an army any time soon but she can defend herself in combat if need be instead of just being a big paperweight at the start of her adventures.
At least, that's on her own: the family sword Lightbreaker has started glowing and pulsating with power ever since that fateful night of terror, Lisanna making way more powerful strikes with it than what anybody else wielding it could do.
At first it's likely to just be an enhanced sword, able to cut through various metals with ease, but if you catch her later in her campaign to take back her home?
Perhaps you might be on the unlucky end of discovering just how much that sword can break, with later travels containing rumour she could destroy the very ground her enemies stood on and even more, as long as she had some light to see where they were...
And it might just also do something special if Lis finds herself digested...(this can be changed/removed depending on what your scene prefs go for)

Events, Bad Ends, Etc

Act 1: From The Fire...

Her kingdom betrayed with a devastating invasoin focused on its capital province, Lis must make a fateful escape both out of her own country, and past lands thought to be safe havens. But who or what she'll find on the way there?
[Events from applicable RPs and what not to be added]

Act 2: An Alliance of Misfits

Now in a safer spot, Lis finds herself in the position of being the sole leader able to make deals and allies after the trials and tribulations she's already been through. From mighty quests to surprisingly menial tasks, she's willing to go far to help her lands, but is she willing to go too far?
Princess_Brigitte would prove to be quite ready to lend need in Lisanna's time of need - having a fellow Empire at her back is quite helpful, but will it be enough to help slow Irina's conquering forces...?

Act 3: A Tale of Light and Revenge

Having formed a mighty army to help take back her home, Lis's at the helm of retaking it whenever she can, chafing at the thought of staying on the sidelines for key battles. But she may also have to deal with the consequences of deals made, in addition to whatever surprises her foes have in store.

(You can consider this the rough "canon" of Lis here that I plan to fill out over time etc etc. Thinking more slotting in applicable RPs where they best fit than trying to fit them all into one cohesive storyline and what not. )

Act What-If: A Tale of Vengeance

Lis didn't just form an army, she just went above and beyond to acquiring the kind of forces both mass and personal required to crush the people that took her land. But has she gone too far in the vengeance she seeks?

The Misc Many Ends of Lisanna Charlemagne

She took the wrong step in one of the more jungle-y parts of the realm, and Perior_Serpa easily made work of the wayward princess in body and mind. Now she's his hypnotized pet, all thoughts of her prior kingdom gone from her mind...
