Crystal Nova

HRMDD, Christalia Iaime-Santiagum "Crystal" Nova, common name Crystal Santiago Nova, is the former ruler of Ice Land and the oldest child of Christine Nova. She is the older sister of Maebon and Anna Nova. She has three children: Bella, Candey, and Ness Nova.

Eytmology of Crystal's name
The name Crystal was chosen by Crystal Nova herself because when she was in preschool, she could not pronounce her formal name Christalia. It could also refer to the discovery of Ice Land, which took place two years before her birth. Her birth name is preceded by HRMDD, which stood for Her Royal Majesty's Daughter of Dedication, which was a term used in the era for a newborn Secosan child. The male equivalent to HRMDD is HRMMJ, which stands for Her Royal Majesty's Master of Juvenility.

Early life
Crystal was born in 5029 during the Republic era. She was born on 5029:11:6, in the early autumn of the year, at Christine Nova's summer home. Crystal had been born with a mutation—a second tail attached to her, which is why she has two tails.

Childhood
Crystal Nova was, like most Secosan children of the era, very snobbish. As a child, she worked for a newspaper firm in Gonoko at age 3-5, serving and delivering newspapers all over Gonoko. Because of this, Crystal had to work for most of her early childhood. When the Secosan child labor ban took effect in 5035, she went to school at the Royal Gonoko Academy. She had good grades and was one of the top students at the school. At the age of 10, her younger sister Maebon was born. In 5040, she became a member of the Secosan Girl Scouts, which she is still a member to this day.

Teen life
Crystal Nova attended the Central Wakshi High School (now Ashkar High School) as a teen. As a teenager, she hated her physical appearance and frequently got acne. She was repeatedly harassed and sexually motivated by the boys in high school and academy, and because of this, Crystal decided to keep herself away from men. She preferred the snobbish type, and they were the ones who would support her. Despite this, she was a studious girl in high school, excelling in her classes and grades. She wore glasses as a kid. She graduated high school in 5046, and she was soon drafted into the military.

Conscription and early adulthood (Late teens to twenties)
After Crystal graduated from high school, she was drafted to serve in the Secosan military. She served in the Secosan Army for two years. During her service, she was stationed in Ice Land, where she would fall in love with the land. It was also during her service where she would meet her future husband, who was then a lieutenant, Fernando Santiago, who she married in 5047. She and her husband then eventually moved to Warthon, where they would attend university together. Crystal majored in politics, whilst Fernando majored in engineering. Crystal graduated in 5051, while Fernando graduated four years later in 5054. As Fernando was six years older than Crystal, they would settle down in Warthon. In 5053, Crystal was selected to be the heir apparent to the Secosan throne. However, a series of scandals surrounding her would eventually prompt her mother, Queen Christine, to remove Crystal from the position.

Affair scandal
In 5053:17, a film reel showing Crystal having an affair with another man other than her husband was published by the Warthon Chronicle. This prompted a massive controversy from the public that eventually ended in Crystal divorcing her first husband. Crystal was shamed by the entire Nova family for divorcing her husband, and was sent to Ice Land to "reassess her thoughts."

Adulthood
Crystal in 5057 was 28 years old when she realized she needed to get her life back together. In 5058, while in Ice Land, she falls in love with another man, Duke Philipe Sanchez. Crystal was 28 and Philipe was 34. They married the next year. The pair would give birth to their first child, Bella Nova, in 5059. In 5060, Crystal would join the Secosan swim team and compete in swimming competitions across the country. However, her reputation was lost when she was put in prison for raiding the Nationalist Party offices in 5062. She would serve six years in prison, and her daughter Bella would be put in government care. However, she was treated "like a queen" at the Ice Land Women's Prison. However, now that Crystal served prison time, she would attempt to improve her lifestyle. In 5064, she was crowned Queen of Ice Land, after the previous ruler, Astana Santanasia Nova (the younger sister of Harme Nova), retired. However, the coronation was a bit weird—she was driven from Ice Land prison to Vladivia, the capital of Ice Land, and the prison held sort of a "graduation" ceremony for her. She would rule Ice Land for the next 55 years.

Crystal's residence
Crystal is the only Nova in the family to live by herself. She lives in the K21 Building in Bartholomew, a five minute drive from the Nova residence. Since she likes cold weather, her penthouse apartment in K21 is set to cold temperatures. Her spouse is Iamie (pronounced "HAY-mee") Hango Loberium.

Personality
Crystal Nova has a very "hip" personality. She is independent and likes to repeat what she says, mainly preceded by "ooh-la-la!"

Positive Side
Crystal is very nice and does not get in as much trouble as her siblings and nieces. She is very kind.

Negative side
Crystal is very snobbish and ill-tempered. She will only hang out with the Secosan elite and not the poor or middle class like the other Novas. Also she is very shy, so if someone cannot help her with something she starts to feel rejected.

Maebon Nova
Crystal Nova and Maebon Nova do not get along well. Being the oldest she does not like the fact that Maebon gets to be the Queen.

Anna Nova
Crystal and Anna get along well because Anna is the youngest; the two have similar characteristics, and will even try to protect Anna when she was arrested for murdering Shazira.
