The Call of the Flame (Chapter 14)
voa20019 for Duchess Tatjana
The regent ruler of Ratthen. Less of a terrible and ruthless dictator and more of an ignorant and debauched rich woman. Annoyed at the idea of civil unrest, happy so long as the city vigilants line her pockets. Willfully looking the other way when it comes to how the money is made.
Voice: German accent. Prestitous, nose upturned during most of her talk. Quite shrill when panicking (which she will often).
[The Desolation of Smaug] "All this talk of change must be suppressed! I can't afford to let them rebel, band together and start making noises. The next thing you know, they'll start asking questions, forming committees, launching inquiries."
[Marie Antoinette] "Yes, it is true the fact I have lead an extraordinary lifestyle; but it is not my fault for downfall of Ratthen! This happened long before my marriage took place!"
