Background
Her Royal Highness Achaxe is Pazyryk, a nomadic Scythian culture living on the Altaic steppes around 450 BCE. She also enjoys dabbling in other early period clothing styles. She is a member of the Laurel’s Council and the Pelican’s Council.

She always wants to see your art or listen to what you are passionate about. If she can facilitate connections for you, or help you move your project along, she will endeavor to do so. There are times when she gets overwhelmed by large groups of people or too many people talking at once. She may sometimes need to be alone in a quiet place to recharge.
