Ilya Aysberg

Ilya Aysberg is the current ruler of the Tsardom of Iceberg and, despite her young age, is one of the most powerful Ice Mages in Ishgar. Inheriting the throne at the young age of eleven, Ilya was forced to grown up quickly when she found herself thrust into a world of courtly intrigue and geopolitics. This reality became even harsher when on the eve of her thirteenth birthday, the neighbouring Pergrande Kingdom launched an unprovoked invasion. This conflict – The Third Iceberg-Pergrande War – lasted for a single year and almost saw the complete destruction of Iceberg. So severe was the situation, that even the young Ilya was forced to take to the front lines. Thankfully though, because of her heritage, she possessed immense Magic that allowed her to devastate enemy forces. This culminated in the Battle of Stolitsa where she slew the Pergrande commander, turning the tide of the war and eventually forcing a Pergrande retreat.

After the war, Ilya dedicated herself to strengthening the Iceberg military and building strong alliances with its neighbours, all in anticipation of another Pergrande invasion.
