Lenora (Rise of Legends)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Lenora is a fictional character in the game Rise of Nations: Rise of Legends.

[edit] Background

Lenora is the leader of the Pirata. She was first seen transporting an artifact the Doge had found in Vinci city-state of Vernazza. She later joined Giacomo when the Doge decided to invade her homeland by constructing a giant anti-air platform - The Sky Crusher. With the young Lord's help, the Pirata were able to rid themselves of the Doge's attacks, and Lenora henceforth pledges her assistance to Giacomo.

As she spent more and more time with Giacomo, Lenora eventually became a close friend of the Lord of Miana, even to the point where she secretly harbors a romantic relationship with him. Although she did not express any other feelings for the man, the "pirate captain" (according to her title) was shown to be jealous when she saw Giacomo together with Arri for the first time in Azar Harif. In fact, for the rest of the Alin campaign, you will not get to use Lenora after the first mission (substituted by Arri), as she claimed that she needed to return to the Pirata Aerodrome for "parts for my flyer". However, in the final mission, she suddenly reappears, together with a significant Pirata air force and Condotierri soldiers, to aid Giacomo against the Doge's assault force in Mezekesh.

She later travelled to the lands of the Cuotl to aid Giacomo in defeating the False Gods. After Giacomo destroyed the relay transmitter to the Cuotl homeworld (possibly killed in the explosion), Lenora returns home and founds the nation of New Miana in Giacomo's memory, seeking to peacefully re-unify the Vinci lands from desruction in the civil war that followed after the destruction of the Gods. Her lieutenants, however, are somewhat skeptical of her wishes of a new Mianan nation, claiming it is not the Pirata way of doing things.

[edit] Trivia

• In skirmish/multiplayer mode, Lenora is the flying hero of the Vinci; in the single player campaign, she's not the only flier (Venza's the other flier hero.). Also, in the Cuotl campaign (if you choose to take the Vinci heroes), she gives Energy instead of Wealth.
