Gerta

Green-Eyed Gerta is a queen of the Spring Court well-known for her jealous nature.

Overview

“ Tell me — where have you been? And don’t lie to me. I can see a lie like a bright star in the sky: it glitters and twinkles, a false gem in Heaven’s crown. ”

Taken by a True Fae known as the Dowager, Gerta was held captive within her domain, the Orphanage. There, all that she had was taken; the Dowager encouraged the other captives to steal whatever Gerta had made hers. Eventually, they began to take pieces of Gerta herself. She managed to replace those lost bits of herself with parts from dolls, toys, and other such tokens. Naturally, this past has made her leery of losing what she considers hers, something that was not helped by her having fallen for a Duke of the Icebound Heart after her escape.

Nowadays, Green Queen Gerta is a mostly-wise ruler… until her jealousy gets the best of her. At that point, she falls prey to her madness. She readily ruins the life of whoever it was that spurned her (in her mind, that is; putting off a meeting because of a splitting headache might well set Gerta off), destroying finances, driving the target into breaking pledges, and the like.

Appearance

As a Manikin, Gerta is mostly synthetic, with plastic skin breaking at the joints and pistons and pulleys underneath. The Mantle crowns her body with flowers, vines, and ivy.
