Lucifenian Royal Family

The Lucifenian Royal Family, formerly known as the d'Autriche Family, was the royal lineage that ruled the Kingdom of Lucifenia since its foundation and previously one of the families of the Five Dukes. Following the Lucifenian Revolution, the royal family was removed from power and died out before the end of the century.

History
In service to the Beelzenian Imperial Family, the d'Autriches were granted titles of nobility and included as among the families of the Five Dukes, reigning over the Lucifenia region. In EC 399, the Duke of the time declared independence from the declining Beelzenian Empire and established the Kingdom of Lucifenia, dubbing himself King Lucifenia I.

During the ensuing deacdes, the Lucifenian Royal Family successfully ruled and greatly expanded the nation's strength. Around EC 473, Prince Arth married Anne Swee; with his father stepping down from the throne, Arth took up the mantle and continued the war effort expanding Lucifenia's borders. Around EC 482, Arth entered a small affair with Queen Prim Marlon after failing to have children with his wife, unknowingly impregnating her with a daughter.

On December 27, EC 485, Arth and Anne sired Prince Alexiel and Princess Riliane. In EC 491, Arth died of the Gula disease plaguing Beelzenia. As a political dispute erupted over his true heir, the twins were separated, with Alexiel being publicly declared dead after an assassination attempt. In EC 499, Anne died of Gula and Princess Riliane ascended the throne in her place.

During the Lucifenian Revolution, the tyrant princess escaped from the royal palace when her twin brother, having secretly worked as his sister's chamberlain, disguised himself as Riliane and was captured in her place. On December 26, EC 500, "The Daughter of Evil" was executed. Surviving the Lucifenian Revolution, the last of the Lucifen dynasty remained in hiding until her death in EC 562 as a Levin nun.

After the destruction of the Third Period, all the dead members of the family residing in the Heavenly Yard were dragged back down to the earth as the ground world merged with the Hellish Yard, excluding Alexiel.
