Storm Empress Avril

Lore[]

When Avril grasped the blade, limitless power flowed through her weak, fragile body. When Avril lifted the blade, overwhelming madness smothered her kind, sensitive personality. When Avril swung the blade, irresistible bloodlust raged in her tainted, twisted heart. In challenging her younger brother for the right to claim the throne, she swiftly subdued and decapitated him. Strange sensations resembling pleasure and fear surfaced as she watched his head roll across the floor. It became all too clear to her why the weapon she held, the "Storm Harbinger", had been sealed away for ages.

Name origin[]

Avril is a French variant of an English feminine name April, also a surname. Derived from the name of the month "april" aprilis in Latin, probably originally derived from Latin aperire "to open", referring to the opening of flowers. The name is possibly inspired by the latter's association with spring and blossoms; has only been commonly used as a given name since the 1940s.
