Elmira Gwendolyn Kephalos

Elmira Gwendolyn Kephalos is the vicereine of Delos and the maternal grandmother of Hadrian Marlowe. Having lived approximately six hundred and eighty-two years, she is a co-signatory of the writ of disavowal that formally severs Hadrian from his family. Her bloodline unites House Kephalos and House Ormund, and through her line Hadrian's family carries a distant kinship -- twelve times removed -- to the Imperial house itself, a lineage whose gene complexes she helped reinforce through her marriages.
