Life Story
243 A.C.-Margaret is born to a Braggan merchant father and an Ithanian chef mother. Margaret is born under the name Margarida do Relicário named after a reliquary in her town in Alviteo which was believed to hold the finger bone of a minor Unionist heron and inspired much local pride though in all likelihood this fingerbone was just a mundane bone of some long-dead citizen of the town whose body was found by some ambitious reverend who wanted to increase tithes. Despite this locals took much pride in its existence and Margaret's family had long lived in the town so they took on the name.
243-262 A.C.-Margaret was raised in a strictly Unionist household though due to the influences of her mother's culture and its beliefs about the role of women had beliefs that were far more pro-women than those expressed by Sancella Unionism at the time. While this was the case each person in her family was still expected to work to better the family either acting as a merchant or some sort of producer of goods to trade. She was taught to cook by her mother learning a great deal about Ithanian cuisine from her. She studied her faith under the local reverend and prayed frequently at the local reliquary. She took quickly to her faith finding a passion for it as well as studying the many cultures of the world and the history of the Ailor. She learned sanktist ritualism from the local reverends and began memorizing the creeds. Margaret also learned basic medical techniques from an elder in the town. Later in her life, Margaret would expand upon those teachings through independent studies.
262-303 A.C.-Margaret follows the tradition of her family's women with her becoming a baker and her brothers serving as merchants and sailors to sell the family's many goods in the markets of other towns. Margaret quickly finds she is dissatisfied with life as a baker in Alviteo due to the cultural rift between herself and others in the region and her feelings of a lack of fulfillment only lasting 5 months as one. She instead takes a job under the local reverends assisting their services while she takes on a strict regimen of prayer and fasting during almost all of her free time. After about 5 years of this, her (more lenient and understanding) father dies causing great upheaval in the family as her totally Bragacao grandfather, the head of the household refuses to "put up with her nonsense any longer" demanding that she return to the family's business and line of work. In response to this Margaret takes a drastic and quite impulsive step forsaking her Braggan family in Alviteo instead claiming a greater calling for herself. She stated that she must work to bring a pure and more perfect faith to the people of the empire and during this time formed her more common name "Margaret Henriche" using the name of Emperor Henriche the Third because she believed she should mirror his work by bringing greater purity to the faith of the empire. This name would not be used often until her entry into the holy city where she used it more frequently to allow for easier use of her name. Upon doing this she moved to the Ithanian city-state of Piquere where she served as some sort of pseudo-reverend acting as a guide to the faithful and advocate for charity though her more ascetic anti-hedonist teachings were largely shunned making her rather unpopular with the local aristocracy though very appealing to the lower class citizens who could not afford such luxuries. She moved about the Ithanian city-states and Boisse-Alais (where she learned Tolonnesa and D'Ithanie) as some sort of missionary of her more ascetic spiritualist version of Unionism though she saw no major success in influencing the religious beliefs of any of these regions due to the complete incompatibility of her beliefs with the wants of the local peerage. In 301, Margaret responded to the creation of the sect of Priscelle Unionism by immediately travelling to the Ithanian sovereignty where she entered the Cathédrale d'Espoir in Priscelle. During her time in the Cathédrale d'Espoir, Margaret's beliefs were radically altered by Ithanian influences. In accordance with the Princois Notoise, Margaret came to believe that loud and luxurious expression of oneself when done properly was just as much an expression of one's devotion to the emperor and therefore the Spirit as the self-denial of asceticism. In accordance with the Princois Vilois, Margaret was also taught that many of the "backward and outdated" practices of the Synod which were perpetuated by New Regalian fanatics actively harmed the empire and Great Way. Despite this, while Margaret does hold some belief in the Princois Femesse, she simply believes that the caring and guiding role of women is superior to the more blunt rhetoric of men in the clergy and never truly came to believe that men should be totally expelled from the clergy. Over these six years at the grand cathedrale Margaret would become a cleric of Priscelle Unionism and would most importantly study the creeds in-depth looking for any points which justified the continued existence and acceptance of the Princessity of Priscelle. Margaret went so far as to even learn ancient Ailor languages such as Proto-Regalian the original language of the creeds to better interpret and understand them so she could argue for greater reforms in the clergy based on her understanding of the creeds. In addition to her study of ancient languages, Margaret also learned Daendroquin from a tutor during her time at the the Cathedrale so that she could better communicate during her travels.
307 A.C.-Seeing the more corrupt, backward, and inconsistent tendencies of the Synod Margaret decided that she must make her way to the holy city and help to guide it faithful towards a more perfect faith. There she initially found success with acting as a guide of the synod since many were tired of its very worldly political leanings. Despite this, a declaration of hers (where she took full and somewhat shocking advantage of her perceived right to expression outlined in the Princois Libresse) opposing the interference of the Synod in the Harhold-Rourke war drew the ire of the High Reverend Henri de la Riviere causing her to be declared "persona non grata" in the eyes of the Synod. Soon after this though the tenth creed was revealed by the Supreme Reverend causing Margaret to believe that her actions were just and the Spirit wishes for her to continue her crusade for the sanctity of the Unionist faith. She founded the Church of Solidarity with Reverend Wilhelm Hiberson and now serves as its Reverend Mother directing it with him. Margaret continues to work in the city to spread her syncretic mix of Priscelle Unionism adapted to Sancella beliefs and the freedom granted by the tenth creed.
