Overview
Lady Lucretia IstaNydiam is without a doubt summed up in one word "infamous". While nobody might forget one of the Firgalik women, certainly, her rise to fame was heralded by her sudden marriage to Prince Sadin. Anarinuell was suddenly faced with the loudest, most sparkly and and squealing Princess to date. It was a marriage wrought with trials and tribulations and scandals that had Princess Lucretia banished and thought to have been gone from their world forever. It was not to be so. Against what is likely his better judgment, Prince Sadin ruled that Lucretia could return to the city and thus then Clan Leader Jalil offered her a place in his household as a Firgalik. That might have been against his better judgment as well. Lady Lucretia turned the Firgalik household upside down with her carefree attitude and her talent for behaving exactly as the littlest Firgalik sister should. In later years, her loyal bodyguard Atreides could attribute many of his grey hairs to this woman. In the coming years, the Firgalik mansion experienced so many delightful moments including the hallway being filled with quickly melting snow, a fort in the atrium created out of everything that wasn't bolted down in the house and Lucretia dancing in the fountain. Lord Proxy Argus seemed to spend as much time straightening out messes Lucretia made as he did on every other part of running the clan.
The second twist of fate that would define interactions between clans for years to come would be when Lucretia made Lord Nydiam. At the time, he had recently just recently gone through a great ordeal in the Eagle Clan that ended with him threatening to host a lottery to kill babies. She handed him a flower and informed him she thought his interior policy could use a little work. They would end up married for only a short time. Prince Sadin held a trump card to end all trump cards...a wedding necklace and just when all seemed settled he presented it proving he was still married to Lucretia. From Princess, to outcast, to Lady to Princess...the Firgalik woman joined the fray in the Palace once more. It was here that one of the darkest times of her life shadowed over Lucretia. There she faced a Shamibelian war right on their doorstep and Prince Sadin fleeing off into the sunset once more. It was also in the Palace she witnessed the death of her dear cousin Lord Argus and would see her dear friend Lady Olena executed weeks later.
Lady Lucretia was never one to go down with the ship and as such she found her next life in Clan Leader Judanarius. The idea of a Gold Dragon Firgalik marrying a Griffon Clan Leader was probably absurd, nevertheless, after a time of courtship they were wed. The Griffons didn't love Lucretia but they didn't hate her...yet. No the dividing point of her time there was with the birth of their child Zayus. The birth of a new son through the Griffon Clan into a riot leaving Lucretia to escape on the back of a griffon into the night with her children. After that, she took a few months off from being married to make Jalil fairly miserable. Lucky for him, the now Cockatrice Clan Leader Nydiam and Lady Lucretia would cross paths again this time at the wedding of Lord Dedalion and Lady Lilana. That's when they spontaneously decided to get married bringing Lucretia to the Cockatrice Clan for the first time and where she has been ever since.

Family Life
Parents
- Mother: Lady Zeena Firgalik
- Father: Who Needs a Dad when you have a AWESOME MOM!
Siblings
- Lady Leyla: Lucretia used to view her sister as the strong one. Lucretia was always the little one and Leyla the strong one but when she looks back on the years and knows now that Leyla ran off to marry Sadin...Lucretia has to admit she might have been the strongest of them all. There was a time, however, when Lucretia was sure that Leyla would knock anybody out who messed with her. She misses those days now that everyone is gone away.
- Lord Ozer (d): Ozer was always the warrior in Lucretia's mind. He seemed to be a keen fighter and when he died she held on to one of his swords. This sword was gifted to Lord Atreides and was one of the weapons he took on the mission to kill Balthan that in turn killed the man. It is now back in Lucretia's possession waiting for it's next owner.
- Lord Quentino (d): Quentino was Lucretia's tricky brother; he had a smart mind and she's pretty sure this is what got him killed. Gold Dragon men are supposed to just beat on things and she feels they are safer that way.
- Lady Arcadia (d): If Lucretia was the innocently zany sister, Arcadia was the zaniest sister ever. She was prone to strange oddities that made Lucretia look like a silly little girl in comparison. Still, she had some fashion sense and Lucretia really cared for her. Some people like to tell Lucretia that Arcadia died in a fire but Lucretia likes to pretend that didn't happen. If you pretend it didn't, then you don't have to acknowledge how bad you feel!
Marriage
- Sadin: There was much scandal to be had about the first marriage of the Prince and Lucretia. The first time around Lucretia was far more innocent and doting to the point where she was maybe a bit too naive to really see his true colors. It ended very badly with a scandal involving the White Dove and banishment.
- Nydiam: Lucretia met Nydiam shortly after his dark downfall in the Eagle Clan and his lottery to kill a baby every year. She told him that was a pretty bad idea and then gave him a flower. They ran off to the Oracle together and had to be summoned back on a griffon for Judanarius' trial for killing Eve. Aftewards, they were allowed to marry but it was not a real marriage. Confused yet? See Sadin again.
- Sadin: It turns out that Sadin still had his wedding necklace from their previous marriage. The Religious Council had already ruled that this meant they were still married. Sadin arrived at the Firgalik Mansion to reclaim her. Torn between her love of Nydiam and her love of Sadin, Lucretia bargained to make her son Lucas a full prince. Though it tore her apart inside, she knew that this would give her son the life he would not have otherwise.
- Judanarius: Lucretia met Judanarius socially following her divorce from Prince Sadin. While she never loved him dearly, she found some safety and security following the many Shamibelian Air Raids within the Corinala Estate. This was a wagon-wreck waiting to happen and it did not end well when Lucretia gave birth to Zayus. The Griffon Clan rioted and the family escaped with barely their life. That pretty much ended that.
- Nydiam: After all those many marriages, Lucretia returned to the Firgalik Family. She vowed never to marry again. Then one fine day while attending the wedding of Lord Dedalion and Lady Lilana, Lucretia met with Nydiam again. He was now Clan Leader of the Cockatrice Clan and she was a fine single lady. As their eyes met across the table, they decided to marry right then and right now making it a double wedding. They have been married ever since.
Children
- Tia: Lady Tia Firgalik is the first child of Lucretia and Sadin. She was born right before Lucretia was banished away from the city so the first two years of her life she did not know her mother. Lucretia fought long and hard to get access to her daughter and it must have worked because much of Tia's finer qualities, SQUEAL, seem to come from her mother. Lucretia's most frightening moment as a mother was when Ojitar and Judanus rode their chariot into the Diplomat Inn and bruised and ran over the little Princess.
- Lucas: Prince Lucas Elianik was born in secret while Lucretia was banished away from the city. When she returned to the city, he was smuggled in as the son of the Firgalik family nanny Sylvi. His identity would remain a secret to everyone except a few in the Firgalik Household including Lord Argus. It seemed he was destined for a very quiet life until one day Prince Sadin arrived with wedding necklaces to reclaim his wife. Before she would set foot in the Palace, Lucretia insisted that Sadin accept Lucas as his son. It was then that he was given the title of Prince.
- Argin: Prince Argin Elianik was born under duress during a round of Griffon Raids. Lucretia bore him alone with the help of Princess Inaya as the midwife. Sadin had run off, again, to some far off place to escape the chains of marriage and life. To the annoyance of others, she named him after her cousin Argus. Despite the fact that Argin was known to be a bit of a handful in childhood, Lucretia maintains that he is a good and sweet little boy. She has fond memories of him sending love letters to then Princess Ania and running around at the Didoron mansion with a cup of wine screaming 'Look at me I'm the Clan Leader!'.
- Zayus: Lord Zayus Firgalik was born to the then Griffon Clan Leader Judanarius and Lucretia.
- Cecilia: Lady Cecilia IstaNydiam was the only child born to Lucretia and then Cockatrice Clan Leader Nydiam. She is evil.
Accomplishments
She Just Always Comes Back
Banished? Check. But is Lucertia back? Yes. She is notoriously good at just bouncing back into the public eye -- and may it stay that way.
Enemies
There are likely a few.
Allies
- Tia. Tia adores her mother and Lucretia can certainly count her an ally.
Scandals
The D..ove?
Surely it wasn't Prince Sadin's wife Lucretia at the White Dove. No. It must have been Faythe, the whore who just looks a helluvalot like Lucretia.
Priestess of Zutiv
This may have been a poor decision on Lucretia's part -- but it was good natured! She wanted to be a priestess of Zutiv long after she left the Gold Dragon's monotheistic clan. Jalil said no. Nydiam stood up for Lucretia. In the end, she decided not to be a priestess at all.
