Brahne Raza Alexandros XVI

Queen Brahne was the morbidly obese ruler of Alexandria and the adoptive mother of Princess Garnet. Through the course of the game, she is the cause of much death and destruction, but Garnet/Dagger often testifies that her "mother" had once been a kind and well-liked ruler of Alexandria and not the power-greedy person she had become when the King passed away and the mysterious Kuja started to show his face within the castle walls. In the year that followed, Garnet noticed changes in Brahne's behavior. Kuja had convinced Brahne of waging war against the neighbouring countries usin an army of mechanical Black Mages, which ran on the mist that covered the entire Mist-continent. When she was told by Kuja of the summoning powers her daughter, Garnet, possessed, her greed for power where fueled even more to the point where she asked the court jesters, Zorn & Thorn, who where also the court mystics, to extract the Eidolons from Garnet, a feat they succeeded in doing.

Once Brahne had gained the ability to summon through the use of certain objects, and had a great enough Black Mage army, she set out to rage war. During this war-time, she succesfully destroyed Cleyra, the home of Freya, greatly damaged Lindblum Castle and unintentionally caused the death of herself and her soldiers, when the powers of the Eidolon she summoned, were turned against herself and her army by Garland and his airship, the Invincible.

She washes ashore on a nearby beach, where she is found by Garnet and the rest of the player's party. With her dying breath, she asks Garnet for Garnet's forgivness for the things she had done, and repents everything she did while influenced by Kuja and her own greed. She then finally dies in the arms of Garnet.
