While for some noblewomen and courtiers a Court Lady might change one's bedsheets or conduct a little light embroidery, the armed and armoured Ladies-in-Waiting maintained by Princess Victoria were altogether a more outgoing cadre.
In the face of threats to her person both from beyond and within the British Empire, the Princess Royal secretly established a loyal sect of bodyguards and confidants. Selecting liberally from the underclasses, Victoria chose her companions for their street smarts, survival instincts, and expertise with very offensive weaponry. Drawing inspiration from the Porcelain Guards of Empress Yanglan, Victoria garbed her Ladies in tensile armour plates hidden beneath their unassuming robes, and afforded them high-powered Pulse Rifles and Special Blazer Repeaters capable of punching through anything shy of a killer robot's mullanium carapace. |
