Elspeth Posted June 12, 2008 Share Posted June 12, 2008 ElspethNova Name: Ivory Princess, also known as the 'Uncrowned Queen.'Elspeth was born into luxury. She was raised in comfort. She was indoctrinated into Teras.Her parents were two of the second generation nova children Bounty raised in her compound. Like the ancient god-kings of Egypt they were raised to believe that it was the natural order to rule humanity and be more than mortal. Unlike the ancient Pharaoh's they really were more than human and rulership came naturally, but tragically like their ancient predecessors, they proved to be all too mortal. Her father was Conn, and her mother Aine, and they bonded early and left the compound when they reached maturity. Little is known of their early lives since Bounty's compound was kept a closely guarded secret or of what they did before they arrived in Sierra Leone. Once there the pair made it their mission to correct the mess the monkeys had made. Between them they were extremely successful in putting down the military dictatorship instituted in 1999. Mtumba's iron fist rule and tendency to execute hundreds of dissidents at a time had made him feared but also loathed by the general populace. Despite their foreign origins, Conn and Aine were welcomed as heroes and were installed as King and Queen by a vast majority vote. They became known as the Ivory King and Ivory Queen because of their pale white skin. They were well liked by the people. At the birth of Elspeth the entire kingdom rejoiced and in only a few short years the royal family had turned the country around and it was on its way to being one of the most prosperous of the West African nations. Unfortunately, not all of Mtumba's Lieutenants were eliminated and Jarutu the most senior surviving military officer of the old regime plotted in silence until he felt the time was ripe. With the aid of the DeBeers corporation, Jarutu was able to hire a team of Elites to attack the royal family and help him reestablish the old military dictatorship. The coup partially succeeded and Conn and Aine were killed, but the Ivory Princess was away visiting the Ptwsan-Wi at her home. Although Jarutu succeeded in placing the kingdom under his control, he did fail in his second objective which was to seize the wealth of the royal family which had recently been moved to swiss accounts from the local banks in order to more readily broker international business ventures. Despite the outrageous human rights violations of the new Jarutu dictatorship Utopia has used it's influence to have the government recognized and avoid media attention to the situation in the kingdom. When asked to comment a Project spokesman said only, "Jarutu is the legitimate successor to the previous government. The so called 'Kingship' of the Teragen terrorists Conn and Aine was never recognized by the United Nations. While there will no doubt be some growing pains as General Jarutu reestablishes order, we wish him well in his efforts and hope that he will re-institute general elections as quickly as possible. Project Utopia will of course be willing to assist in this should he call on us."Other less politically correct commentators note that it must be a great relief to Utopia to have a very successful pair of known Teragen members dethroned, even if it means the killing of thousands in reprisals by the new government against royalist sympathizers. In the two years since the coup, no elections have been called and an estimated eleven thousand have died in internal violence as Gen. Jarutu has consolidated his hold on the nation. The economy has also come to a near standstill and poverty and starvation have resulted in another 32 thousand deaths, yet still Utopia stand aside and refuse to act against the Jarutu dictatorship. The General also spends a large percentage of the wealth he is acquiring from the nations mineral wealth in maintaining a stable of Elites to act as bodyguards and enforcers. Elspeth, the Ivory Princess, has vowed to free the people of Sierra Leone from their bondage to the Jarutu monkey, but has not yet made any visible moves against him. It can be noted however, that many royalist groups still exist within the country and that they are well armed and supplied. Meanwhile, Elspeth continues to live in exile and has not approached the UN, Utopia or any other baseline run organization to press her claim to the throne, nor has she even spoken publicly about the situation. Interestingly, she was recently seen at an event held by the British royal family, and greeted as 'Princess'. Political commentators were quick to point out that how the British Monarchy greets a guest has no political significance and does not indicate the support of the UK, or EU for a deposed Teragen Princess from a third-world nation.______A million monkeys poking at a million keyboards given infinite time might be able to type out all the works of Shakespeare... That doesn't mean they should be allowed to govern themselves. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
