Empress Vadoma I, also known as by her full name of Vadoma Rowena Waffel-Paine, is the one of the two co-Emperors of Western Natopia, co-reigning with her husband Edward I since 1709 AN. She was born on 25 Blumuar 1671 AN, and is the first daughter and the second child of Natopian Emperor|Nathan II. Her eldest brother is Emperor Nathan III, who currently rules over Eastern Natopia and the Natopian Empire as a whole. She was the second child to be birthed from an artificial womb for the House of Waffel-Paine, technically making her the 2nd oldest of the quadruplets born to Emperor Nathan II.
Vadoma married Prince Edward of the Alexandrian House of Carrillo after a three-year courtship in 1689 AN. Their relationship and marriage caused some controversy as Edward is seven years her senior. In 1691 AN, she entered the service of the Dozan Bovic Church as the Bosarch of Lindstrom. She graduated in 1692 AN from Nathan & Elijah College a year early with degrees in Comparative Religion and Political Science. In 1692 AN, Vadoma was made Metrobosarch of Tapfer.
When the throne of Natopia passed to Nathan III, the new Emperor proposed to divide Natopia into East and West Natopia. Nathan III conferred upon Vadoma and Edward the throne of Western Natopia, with both as Emperor and Empress Regnant. As well as being Co-Empress of Western Natopia, she is also the Metrobosarch of Tapfer, the Bosarch of Lindstrom, Mankari of Hoyela, Scion of the Three Peoples, Vessel of Dual Natures, Progeny of the Once-Living God, Transcendence of the Dhury, and Heir to the Line of Drak.
Vadoma has mostly deferred to her husband in governance, a renowned military and economic leader. She has mainly pursued cultural and religious pursuits and has been instrumental in helping negotiate key agreements that led to the finalization of the Natopian division.
Early Life
Vadoma spent most of her time with her elder brother Nathan III. For the sake of dynastic security and succession, the quadruplets did often live in the same city or even country. Vadoma and Nathan III lived together in Anmutstadt and grew up together while their younger siblings, Leonora and John, spent most of their early years in Drakorda.
Dynastic Security
During the Funeral of Kaiser Ayreon IV in 1671 AN, it was decided that of the four siblings born to Nathan II, Vadoma would remain in Lindstrom, as a precaution against unforeseen catastrophic events, terrorism, or assassinations. John had an obligation to be there as King of the Draconians, and Nathan III had an obligation to go as Natopian heir apparent. Of the two sisters, it was decided between Leonora and Vadoma that Leonora should go so she could be with her favorite brother, John. The siblings seem to find dark humor in the necessity, which is a directive of their father Nathan II, and have been quoted by the media referring to whichever sibling is not present as "the spare." Because she was often left alone, she became very introspective, macabre, and study-focused, and turned to the Church for guidance.
Education
Vadoma pursued elementary and secondary education at Nathan & Elijah College Prep, where she enjoyed theatre, orchestra, and debate as extracurriculars.
In 1692 AN, Vadoma graduated from Nathan & Elijah College a year early with degrees in Comparative Religion and Political Science. She also took theology and church law lessons from Pentheros Sergius and meet with him every month or so in anticipation of her being elevated to the rank of Metrobosarch of Tapfer.
Vadoma holds several degrees from Nathan & Elijah College and several honorary degrees from the Imperial University of Alexandria (1701 AN), the University of Frenzyville(1689 AN), and the University of Goldfield (1710 AN).
Marriage
In 1689 AN, Vadoma married Prince Edward of the House of Carrillo, causing some controversy as he is a man seven years her senior.
During press interviews after the engagement announcement, she told reporters:
Bous guided me to Edward, he showed me a future with him filled with love, children, grandchildren, and my own personal growth and prosperity. Bous revealed a future to me beyond current comprehension, all I know is that Bous offered me a choice between a fulfilling future with Edward, or an uncertain future, languishing under the shadows of my siblings as I struggled for relevancy in the church. I will always put Bous and Church first, but Bous wants me to serve a more active role in the world, and by marrying Edward--who is a lovely man by the way! I mean, look at him, you don't really need divine intervention to tell you to marry this sexy man, do you?--Anyway, by marrying him, a door is opened to me in the future. I don't know where the door leads, but it's very exciting. And if I've learned anything from my aunt Clara, it's that I can do whatever I want to protect myself and my kids should the marriage go bad!—Vadoma Rowena Waffel-Paine, Public interview with the Natopian press.
Following the public announcement of her revelation from Bous, she began training to be a bosarch in the Dozan Church. In 1688 AN, she was appointed as Bosarch of Lindstrom. She participates in Herds under the guidance of an elder Bosarch. In 1691 AN she became the full Bosarch, but due to her age was withheld from full confirmation as Metrobosarch of Tapfer, a position usually held ex officio by the Bosarch of Lindstrom, until her accession in {[AN|1692}}.
