Duchess Nadja Akerman



Duchess Nadja Akerman was born as the daughter of Duke Harrold Akerman and Duchess Liesel Akerman in the Akerman Estate in Brekkur, The Frozen Forest. She was the couples fourth child and Nadja would grow up alongside her four older brothers: Liek, Floki and Igor. Her earliest years were spent within the family home with her mother who rejected the wetnurses for her daughter. Nadja thus grew up with a much closer personal relationship with her family as compared to contemporary expectations.

As a child Nadja enjoyed poetry and literature and was a avid bookwork. At the age of twelve she moved away from home to the Brekkur Regional Royal Academy where she studied for several years. When she was sixteen she was enrolled in The Royal Academy in the capital city of Truvaria, where she met the future Queen Charlotte Bjork, who she developed an intense rivalry and hatred for. The two frequently argued and fought, a conflict which did not end when they both graduated. Her father died just prior to her graduation.

When Nadja was 20 she became pregnant and gave birth to a bastard son, who she named Runar. The father was and is unknown to the general public, though Nadja withdrew into secrecy with the boy after giving birth. When Nadja was 21 she became pregnant with a second child, presumably from the same affair as which produced Runar. Some time before her 22nd birthday she gave birth to a young daughter whom she named Sigurda. Several months later Nadja inherited her families estate following her mothers death, and was herself found dead a month later from an apparent suicide. Both Runar and Sigurda were missing following the suicide, though the police found no hard evidence of foul play.
