GENERAL INFORMATION
Aurelian Veruna is the political golden child of House Veruna, a dynasty once disgraced, now resplendent in wealth, wine, and whispers of influence. Dubbed the "Promised Prince of Parrlay." Aurelian is Naboo nobility dressed in modern ambition: a rising star of the Royal Assembly, chair of the shadowy Internal Affairs Committee, and a senator representing the oceanic world of Plooriod III.
Blessed with a killer pedigree and a father with a 20-year plan, Aurelian straddles the line between charismatic statesman and dangerously charming schemer. He's the kind of man who'll debate legislation in the morning and host a masquerade on a luxury barge that night.
He's a dreamer with a blade tucked in his belt, a bureaucrat in a ballroom, and the kind of senator who remembers your name - especially if he's investigating your ethics violations.

Aurelian Veruna, the so-called "Promised Prince of Parrlay," is the living culmination of a centuries-long climb from disgrace, obscurity, and near-annihilation. Aurelian's bloodline, House Veruna, once teetered on the brink of extinction after the political fallout of 33 BBY, when their machinations with House Tapalo against the native Gungans were exposed, disgracing the once-prominent family.HISTORY
For generations, House Veruna clung to relevance by the dirt under their fingernails, rebuilding quietly through agriculture, trade, and the high art of pretending they weren't cursed by history. In time, vineyards bloomed on Naboo's outer estates, grain stores filled the moon Veruna's ports, and the House slowly clawed its way back into Theed's gilded circles.
By the time Aurelian was born, House Veruna was no longer a footnote - they were a force.
Raised between the cultural pageantry of Theed and the political backchannels of Parrlay, Aurelian was steeped in legacy and ambition. Enrolled in the prestigious Theed Royal Academy, he was given a golden education tailored for leadership, diplomacy, and subtle power plays. But books and tutors could only temper him so far, at 16, Aurelian surprised many by entering the Royal Naboo Defense Force, where he became known more for his charisma and flare than his tactical rigidity. Rising to Major at the Keren Royal Defense Complex, Aurelian's military career ended when his father summoned him home - Remus Veruna had decided it was time for his heir to learn how to rule, not how to follow orders.
Aurelian returned to Parrlay with a new uniform: tailored silks and noble expectation. His transition into politics was as inevitable as it was calculated. When Plooriod III - an aquacultural planet along the Corellian Trade Spine, petitioned to join the Royal Naboo Republic, the Crown called upon House Veruna, whose expertise in agricultural export and integration made them ideal stewards. Aurelian was dispatched to oversee the transition. And in true princely fashion, he did more than just smooth things over - he dazzled them.
So enamored were the Bestinians by the young noble's mix of courtly decorum, reformist vision, and off-the-cuff wit, that they named him Senator. One planet's "envoy" became another's "champion." And Aurelian, naturally, accepted the power with all the humility of a man who had his family crest monogrammed onto his drinking glasses.
Now serving in the Royal Assembly as Plooriod III's representative, Aurelian Veruna has fast become a name to watch. His work on the Internal Affairs Committee - an elite investigative body within the Assembly - has drawn both admiration and suspicion. Behind closed doors, some whisper that his family's name is too tied to old scandals. Others claim he's merely a handsome front for Remus Veruna's ambitions.
But Aurelian knows how to weaponize a whisper. He is ambitious, yes, but not recklessly so. He plays court politics like a musician plays the harp: effortlessly, and always for an audience. Balancing his legislative duties with the ongoing tutelage of his father, Aurelian straddles the line between politician and prince - diplomat and dynast.
He is seen by many as the future face of Naboo's nobility in the Republic - a charming, calculating, and somewhat indulgent heir poised to elevate House Veruna from a once-fallen house to a galactic aristocracy.
The only question is: when he takes the throne of his House, will it be just Parrlay he rules… or more?
