HIGHBORN, yuliya lannister

[attr="class","bioheader"]personality.

[attr="class,"bioentry"]Lannister is more than a name, it's the lifeblood that courses through Yuliya's veins. The lion isn't only on the house sigil; it takes up residence in her very soul. Being a lion is more than existing as part of the pride. Her duty and honor are directly tied to the Lannister name and how the house thrives and what the rest of the realm thinks of them. Yuliya will fight tooth and nail to preserve the integrity of her house, especially if glory and power derives from such a struggle.

She is a lady. Her dreams do not run parallel with the expected life of a noblewoman, but that doesn't mean she is to make a fool out of her father and the rest of her house by being ill-mannered. Yuliya knows the proper etiquette, how to sew, plenty of dance steps, and can idly chitchat for the rest of her days. But all of the expected tasks of a lady could bore her to an early death. Still, ridicule would never befall her father or House Lannister because a certain honorific slipped her mind or she didn't know when to bite her tongue and play dumb.

She is a warrior. Her protests against expectations and societal standards has always been silent, playing out in schemes that occur beyond the eyes of her father. Septas and handmaidens would have never been able to guess that their little lion itched to wrap her fingers around the hilt of a blade. Her familiarity with the blade can be added up to strong-arming her guards to instruct her, countless books read in secrecy, and from observing her elder brother any chance she could steal away from her dull studies. Being anointed as a knight has always been this obstinate woman's dream; one she will assure turns into a reality through any means necessary.

She is her own. A lion, a lady meant to be married off, member of the small council, and self-proclaimed knight. She carries many titles but she holds the most coveted one close to her heart: her name, Yuliya Lannister.

[attr="class","bioheader"]history.

[attr="class,"bioentry"]Yuliya's heart will always remain at Casterly Rock, sworn to serve the Lannister family and promise her family's legacy carries on. The little lion has no qualms with the house of nobility she has been born into, but it's her being a lady she wishes she could protest. The trivialities and mundaneness of the life of a lady isn't enough for Yuliya, she wallows everyday over the simple fact that the Seven couldn't have likened her to her elder brother, Logan. She desperately wishes she could have been born a son, able to proudly wield a blade and serve the realm. But the Lannister girl has always been fully aware that it is necessary for her to fulfill her duties as a lady to maintain the honor or her family.

As a child, she was attentive to every handmaiden, septa, and maester who was intended to instruct and educate her. But that never meant that she didn't steal away at any chance provided to tend to her actual intrigues. Yuliya would strong-arm her guards into teaching her swordsmanship skills, practice in the stables only to get caught by one of her mother's handmaidens, or occasionally attest to an expectation she couldn't bite her tongue to adhere to. Each time she was taken to her mother, who she loved dearly despite her frigid demeanor. She was never reprimanded by her mother, despite her openly defying her dreams and intentions to wield a sword. Her relationship with her mother has always been strong, with Yuliya acting as a confidant to Lady Lannister.

She has had plenty of valuable encounters but there has always been one man whose encounters will never forget. He was a member of a vassal house, but his company was agreeable enough. He trained with her when she could steal away from Casterly Rock, finding that she would much rather train with them than carry on the facade of a content little noble girl. The time they scared was scared but it was also cut far too short. He was shipped off to Essos for his skills with the blade and it was the last Yuliya heard of him. It pained her greatly to hear of his loss but also for the cease of the only escape she possessed from her noble life.

The most refreshing change to come to to her life her father's demand that she depart from Casterly Rock to King's Landing, where she would assume the position of Master of Coin for King Jaehaerys. He informed his secondborn that House Lannister had been generous enough to supply the crown with an ample amount of gold, but with his donation he desired to have his wealth properly overlooked. There would be no one better suited for the duty then his own kin. Yuliya was twenty one years of age when she departed from Casterly Rock, relocating to King's Landing to begin ardently serving on the small council. Five years have passed and she has proven herself worthy of the position while also pursuing her dreams of bettering her skills with the blade. The passing of the king was unfortunate but the lion is more concerned with the part her family will play in the newfound struggle for glory.

[attr="class,"bioentry"]LIONHEART: An castle-forged sword hauntingly fitting for the Lannister woman. An ornate lion is engraved on the blade and the pommel is inset with a sparkling ruby. Always hanging from her hip, she is evidently fond of the sword.
