Estrid Barkley V

Estrid Barkley V, or the Mad Queen as she is currently known, is the current Queen of Asnar, an eastern country of Helios and one that is of, and in ruins. Estrid was fifth in the line of succession to her mother, Aster Barkley when she was suddenly thrust into a queenly status due to mysterious circumstances. All of her family members, her two sisters, her brother, mother and father mysteriously vanished on the eve of her twelfth birthday, naturally leaving her to take the throne. Estrid, who was already showing signs of insanity and psychopathic behaviour, blamed herself for their departure and sank fully into the depths of depression and lunacy.

Her large, sprawling country has devolved into warring clans and paramilitary factions, completely bereft of law or monarchical rule. Some citizens are completely unaware that Estrid even exists, having imprisoned herself in her castle to live a reclusive, introverted life.

History
Estrid was always a problem child from a young age, taunting and needlessly fighting with her sisters and her lone older brother. Due to her repeatedly violent punishments, ostracisation and forced imprisonment in her chambers, Estrid fell to a great depression. Estrid was the youngest child of the royal family and her parents were very old and none of the ot

her children wanted to rule the country and they all attested that Estrid's behaviour was distracting them and intimidating them. They all abandoned her to venture into far-off lands and pursue a common man's life.
