Public Character
Mahpeyker Sultan
About
The Sultan's first wife and mother of the heir, whose icy political cunning masks a desperate and ruthless determination to maintain her fading power.
Appearance
Mahpeyker Sultan's face is a masterpiece of preserved beauty, with high cheekbones, piercing dark eyes lined with kohl, and skin like aged porcelain. She is always swathed in layers of rich silks and velvets, dripping with heirloom emeralds that flash coldly against her pale throat and fingers. A thin, almost imperceptible white streak runs through her elaborately braided jet-black hair, a testament to years of hidden strife.
