[edit] Biography

Aurelia was one of the concubines of the King of Dalkia, and due to her status she was not capable of gaining any inheritance after the king's death. At some moment she started a secret relation with the leader of the Dalkian Army and the king's personal guard, Roin, and together they plot the King's death through poisoned food.

After the king's death, Aurelia quickly seized control of the kingdom. Suspicion was raised against her, since the death was still unresolved and it was too sudden, but Aurelia received help of Roin and the army and she was successfully at the leadership of Dalkia.

Her first action was the restart of aggression towards Halteese, but she would eventually raise arms against Grandall as well, mostly by the machinations of Chester who acted as an advisor.

After that, Aurelia spent most of the chronicles in Dalkia's castle, sending troops against the player's army and giving comments on their victories. Finally at Chronicle 12, the player assaults the capital Revless and Aurelia confronts him as the last boss, after Roin's attempt at fending them off at the castle's entrance. Aurelia's fall dictates Dalkia's defeat and the end of the war.

[edit] Weapon

- Black Widow

A sickle attached to a chain, weapon of choice of Aurelia. Its name could be a mock at her plots, as she killed her former husband out of power. This weapon has special effects as well. It saps the victims life when the attacks connect, and the Black Widow also has an extended reach. Because the Chain is a bit thinner than most, its defence ability is weaker.

[edit] Trivia

Aurelia's entire costume is made from Create-a-Fighter parts, but her body build is unique.
In Chronicles of the Sword, Aurelia is the boss of Chronicle 12, and marks the end of the first half of the story. She also appears commenting events on some chronicles' starts.
The Jurakudai Villa (Setsuka's Stage) serves as Aurelia's castle interior during her boss battle.
Aurelia's Destined Battle (during Quick Play) is Ivy.
Aurelia's Guard Impact is identical to Spawn's Guard Impact in Soul Calibur II.
Aurelia and anyone using her style (sickle), are the only characters in Soul Calibur III who do not have access to an unblockable attack. The only unblockable attack she has is only accessible from Soul Charge.
