Code Name: EienSnow (hi, Lon)
Character Name: Lucretia Merces
Bio: Lucretia Merces originally came from unidentified parts in the northern continent. Many players speculate she is from Karaya because of her blonde hair, tan skin, and her possession of jewelry from the Grasslands. She went to Harmonia and was taught military strategy.
Some time during her tenure in Harmonia, she met and befriended (and perhaps became closer than that to) Cathari, a Gunner and member of Harmonia's Howling Voice Guild.
Following this, she came to the Queendom of Falena, where she became the tactician for Marscal Godwin. Lucretia eventually cuts ties with the Godwins, notably by suggesting that Queen Arshtat bear the Sun Rune herself to protect it from nobles who would want the power themselves (in other words, the Godwins that Lucretia was theoretically supporting). This caused Arshtat's gradual change in personality by the corrupting power of the Sun Rune, and indirectly eventually led to Arshtat's death. Because of this, the queen's younger sister, Sialeeds, does not like Lucretia.
When the Dawn Rune was stolen in the Lordlake revolt, Lord Godwin used the excuse to exact revenge on Lucretia. Lucretia counseled clemency on Lordlake and Lord Rovere, but Arshtat, influenced by the Sun Rune, instead took draconian punishment measures. Marscal claimed that Lucretia had been disloyal by her suggestion to allow the outrage to go unpunished, and asked for her execution. Arshtat agreed to a point, but merely imprisoned her rather than executing her. During this time, she became close friends with two guards, Cius and Lelei, and began teaching Lelei the art of strategy. She predicted that either Lord Godwin would find her and execute her, or that Lord Barows would come seeking her help. Instead, Prince Freyjadour Falenas comes. She knows the Prince came to ask for her services, but she informs him beforehand about what went on between her and Arshtat. If, at any time, Lucretia believes Freyjadour is doing the wrong thing, she will betray him. He still accepts her services.
Lucretia's first plan destroys Lord Barows's plan with Armes. During the course of the game, Lucretia plans meticulous strategies to return the royal family to power, while at the same time, promoting the Prince's image as a tolerant and good figure. She does this by making the conscripted and scared guards of Hatred Fortress abandon their posts before she destroys it.
Lucretia plans for everything, and is always one step ahead of the Godwins. The Godwins predict (should Freyjadour abandon the Ceras Lake Castle) that he will go to Raftfleet, but Lucretia sends a double there instead.
During the siege of Sol-Falena, Lucretia talks to the dying Sialeeds. Despite Sialeeds' hatred for Lucretia, they both respect each other, and both believe Freyjadour is a wonderful young man, though Lucretia seems to have more confidence in his constitution than does his aunt.
After the war, Lucretia vanishes, along with Lelei.
