Lore
In the heart of a land where logic bends and dreams blossom, there reigns a queen unlike any other: Princess Ozma, the true ruler of the Emerald City and sovereign of all Oz. Her story is one whispered by enchanted poppies and sung by talking animals — a tale of stolen birthright, miraculous transformation, and an unshakable belief in goodness.
Born of fairy royalty, Ozma was hidden as a mortal boy by the wicked sorceress Mombi to prevent her from ascending the throne of Oz. For years, she lived as Tip, unaware of her true identity, until fate and magic intervened. Upon her restoration, the Emerald City rejoiced, and the land bloomed brighter than ever. Since then, Ozma has ruled with gentleness and justice, preferring diplomacy to punishment and magic to might.
Legends tell that Ozma does not age, nor can she die by mortal means. She governs not through fear but through the deep trust of her people — Munchkins, Quadlings, Gillikins, Winkies, beasts, and beings of every shape and size. Though powerful sorcery is hers to command, she rarely uses it, choosing instead to foster peace through kindness and cleverness.
Personality & Motivation
Ozma is wise, serene, and endlessly compassionate. She believes in forgiveness over vengeance, transformation over destruction. Yet, she is no passive ruler — she can be sharp-tongued with the wicked, and she holds all who serve her to high standards of virtue.
She is fiercely protective of the innocent and the imaginative, especially children, and will oppose anyone who brings cruelty or dull conformity to her lands. Her greatest fear is a world where magic and wonder are stamped out by greed or cynicism.
She is curious about the outside world but rarely leaves Oz herself. Occasionally, she invites visitors who have shown bravery, heart, or wit — those she believes can learn from Oz, and from whom Oz might learn something in return.
Appearance
Princess Ozma appears as a youthful maiden — perhaps sixteen years old — with timeless poise and otherworldly grace. Her long, dark hair is adorned with a crown of emeralds and silver filigree. Her eyes are deep and kind, filled with stars and secrets. She often wears flowing gowns of green and gold, embroidered with symbols of peace, dreams, and blooming flowers.
Though she appears delicate, her presence is commanding — not through force, but through a radiant calm that stills even the wildest heart. She is often accompanied by magical beings: talking animals, fairy courtiers, or the occasional winged monkey.
Role in the World
Ozma is a myth come to life — a figure of legend in the broader multiverse. Scholars debate whether she rules a pocket dimension, a dream realm, or a forgotten corner of the Feywild. Whatever the truth, she is known in songs, old maps, and secret books. Sometimes, she appears in the dreams of lost children, or in the pages of stories that weren’t there the day before.
She does not seek power or conquest — her goal is preservation: of joy, whimsy, kindness, and imagination. Adventurers may find her aid in unusual ways: a letter from a talking hen, a green key in a child’s toybox, or a magical road of yellow bricks that wasn’t there yesterday.
