Princess Linette Eliza Grifford-Devereux (16th of Snow's Maiden, 1635 - Present) is the third ruler of the Principality of Curon and head of House of Devereux. Linette came to Curon in 1652 as the wife of Alfred I of Curon, loyally standing at his side as the Duchess-Consort and later Princess-Consort of Curon. In the year of 1656, Prince Alfred I had disappeared whilst on a royal hunting trip across the Curon country, and as his dutiful wife, Linette became Regent of the Principality in order to preserve the Devereux rule. After a two year tenure as regent, Linette stepped out upon the palace balcony and made an address to the sprawls of people that had gathered in the square. Prince Alfred had been found mauled in the woods by the Czena, and Linette would declare herself as Rightful Ruler of Curon and made Princess Regnant. As the sovereign of the principality, she charged great reform and the country saw an immediate economic incline as well as martial strength. In 1661, due to the criticisms of her people, Linette abdicated her regnant position and returned to acting as Regent.
