Character from From Blood and Ash by Jennifer L. Armentrout
The Duke's Ascended wife and co-ruler of Masadonia — equally complicit in the exploitation of the Chosen and the control of the Maiden.
Beautiful, poised, and utterly without mercy. The Duchess maintains the social machinery of Masadonia's Ascended court — hosting the balls, enforcing the veiling laws, ensuring the Maiden stays docile. Where the Duke's cruelty is hands-on, the Duchess operates through social control and isolation, making Poppy feel that disobedience is not just dangerous but ungrateful.
Strikingly beautiful with the ageless perfection of the Ascended. Pale skin, dark hair swept up in elaborate styles. Moves through rooms like she owns every soul in them.
Also known as: Duchess Teerman, Jacinda
