Her Imperial Grace, Stewardess Isabella Reinhard (Born May 21st, 1981) was the former Steward of the Tocrowkian Reich. Inheriting the title from her father, her reign lasted almost two years, before it was toppled by a Coup d'état. During her reign, the Tocrowkian Reich endured several wars and hardships, which the current regime attribute to her lack of leadership qualities. She left a positive legacy in many Tocrowkian Marxists, however, due to her endorsement of the Neo-Bolshevist regime.

Early Life

Isabella Kastiniva Reinhard was born in Pharamas, Tocrowkia on May 21st of 1981. Born to her father Willhelm and her mother Eva, and younger sister to her brother Heinrech. Born into the most Noble House of Reinhard, she was an heir to hundreds of years of honorable deeds by her ancestors. Particularly, the ten Stewards of the Reinhard house that came before her own ascension.

Academic Career

In the tradition of Tocrowkian nobles, Isabella intended lucrative private schools from the beginning of her academic career. Most notably, she attended the Imperial Naval Academy and completed two semesters within the S.S. Officer Education Academy. During her final year at the Naval Academy, she engaged in several stiff competitions during naval exercises against the man that would eventually overthrow her, Seth Mahone.

She and several of her friends completed their education in Naval politics on 2002, and was offered a high position within the Tocrowkian Navy. She turned it down, however, in favor of a political career, where she would eventually meet her late husband.

Political Career

Isabella entered Tocrowkian politics around the time her father, Willhelm, was also taking the political theater by storm, rising to power in August of 2003 by gaining the throne of Steward, having impressed the Tocrowkian people with his charisma and intelligence.

Despite her fathers position, Isabella refused his favoritism and rose through the ranks by her own power. Using her natural charisma and the tactics she had learned during her time at the Naval Academy, she too gained a high position as Chancellor (Not to be confused with the title of Grand Chancellor) of the Reich Interior Ministry.

Stewardess of Tocrowkia

After Willhelm Reinhard suffered a heart attack on the day of October 11th, 2005, he appointed his daughter as the heir to the throne of Steward. This was an extremely controversial move, as the title of Steward is not a dynastic one, but one granted to those who display natural talent and ability.

Still though, Isabella was enthroned as Stewardess. From the beginning of her reign, she attempted to improve the civil and political freedoms of the Tocrowkian underclass. These attempts were met with varying success, as she faced extremely strong opposition from the Reich Interior Ministry from the beginning to the end of her time as Stewardess.

Her fortunes improved somewhat when the Neo-Bolshevist party seized power in late 2006. Filled with other liberal-minded individuals as her self, she couldn't resist the opportunity to endorse the party. This would eventually prove to be her undoing.

Isolationism, revolution, exile

The communist government of Tocrowkia was meant with mixed views internationally. Smaller, developing nations admired it, and several of these states joined the newly created Union of Communist Nations, the newly created, Tocrowkian-led alliance. However, larger, more powerful nations frowned upon it, and considered it a threat to their own national security. This resulted in the creation of the Anti-Communist Treaty Organization (ACT0) and the Alliance for the Preservation of Civilization (APOC).

Together, these alliance proved a massive political, economic and military threat which the Tocrowkian Reich could not endure. To save it self from possible invasion, Isabella decided to lead the Reich into a period of isolationism. This period would prove short lived, however. Shortly after Tocrowkia left the international stage, a group of Noble Houses, lead by the Reinhard's arch-rival family, the Mahone's, banded together to form a new political party.

Within weeks, the entire Tocrowkian Reich fell into anarchy as the Neo-Bolshevist party splintered, the Neo-Imperial Party gained power, and various other groups sought to restore the honor of Tocrowkia. The military refused to become involved, and abandoned the Stewardess. Unable to rely upon the military for protection, Isabella was forced to gather what few forces she could rely upon, mostly Red Guard, the paramilitary wing of the Neo-Bolshevist Government, and board up the Reichstag, essentially turning the building into a fortress, a shield against the chaos just outside it's door.

Eventually, the Neo-Imperial Party gained more power than all the other groups, and with a crack-force of commandos, raided the Reichstag. The Special Ops were lead by Seth Mahone, the leader of the Neo-Imperial Party himself. In that last, decisive battle, he captured Isabella and many other prominent leaders of the Bolshevist regime.

Rather than execute them, as his generals advised him, he opted to show them mercy, instead exiling them to a small island near the south pole. Isabella, along with her top advisor's during her reign as Stewardess, remain there to this day, their new "home" guarded by no less than twenty ships of the Tocrowkian Navy, making sure their exile is everlasting.
