Angela Floode

Angela Floode (3E180-) was the wife of Emperor Krieg I and Empress Consort of the Sunset Empire.

History
The dispute between Angela's father Heath and Emperor Ulrich I could have had disastrous consequences for the realm: had the dispute gone on any longer, Heath would have withheld the Heartlands' food supplies from the rest of the realm, which would've had a major effect on the neighboring regions and, most importantly to Ulrich, the capital. In order to end the dispute, Ulrich agreed to marry his heir, his bastard son Krieg, to Angela. They were wed in an elaborate ceremony on Krieg's 15th rotation in 3E200.

Angela, being five years older than Krieg, was bored by the young Krieg, and being a bit promiscuous and filled with desire for adventure, often explored Redrock and found many lovers, most notably being Lord Samuel Troute, a nobleman from the Heartlands as well. Angela was taken by the lord, which proved problematic when Ulrich died suddenly in 3E203, and Krieg became emperor.

Angela enjoyed her status as Empress, yet continued her affair with Samuel Troute. When the Third Red Crown War broke out soon after Krieg's coronation, Samuel was called away to the front lines. Tensions rose between Angela and her husband, especially when her husband showed cruelty to captured lords, wards, and soldiers. When Samuel returned from victory at the Battle of Whitewash against the southerners, Angela was all to eager to aid her lover in plotting to overthrow Krieg.
