Emma Marceau

Ambassador Emma Marceau
Ambassador Emma Marceau is a 26 year old diplomat for the Commonwealth of Orion, and citizen of the planet Bayonne. Emma's sharp-witted and eloquent defense of the rights of citizens in her lecturer position at the University of Verde has rocketed her into favor among the elite of the Commonwealth and her beauty has caught the attention of Maximillian Balthesar Villendrôme. Sensing an opportunity to take advantage of her unusual beauty to curry favor with the Peers of the Republic, Maximillian assigns her to represent the Commonwealth at the Juneau Capital. Emma is the first person in over 25 years to occupy the diplomatic position since the previous occupant defected to the Republic when the two sides declared war on each other. With the ink still fresh on the armistice, Emma is charged with maintaining peace with the Republic for as long as possible while Maximillian moves to address the more immediate threats posed to the Commonwealth by the war with the Alliance of Divine Planets. Not only vivacious, but also shrewd, well-educated and high-mannered on account of her mother's upbringing, Emma is well equipped to tackle the politics of life at court. But, she is also driven by a deeply personal agenda to uncover the truth of her birth. For just as she is to embark on her journey to Juneau, her mother reveals a deep secret about her past. The father she never knew, the one who left her mom while she was pregnant never to be seen again, is a Lord of the Republic.
