Lady Christina Freedman

As a student at the University of Landing, Christina Freedman, daughter of the Lord of New Henrico, was already a leader and a figure of enormous popularity. The young Christina wrote a column for the campus newspaper, hosted a radio show on the campus radio station and was the star of numerous school productions. She was elected both homecoming queen and student body president. A career in the media seemed to await the attractive young woman.

After graduation, Freedman did briefly pursue a career as a network television reporter in Excablia before going into politics. Her public exposure, good looks, natural magnetism and command of the issues made her a rising star in the Progressive Conservative Party.

Despite her high public profile and growing reputation as a tough politician, it was considered a surprise when the newly enthroned Emperor David IV skipped over several veteran politicians in the ruling center-right coalition to name Lady Freedman Imperial Chancellor.

As Chancellor, Lady Freedman has won a reputation for decisive and confident leadership. She has loyally implemented the Emperor's policies while taking her own initiative to shape their implementation. She is also known as "no-nonsense" leader whose temper, though rarely seen, is greatly feared and avoided.
