Tenure: Disputed 1924 - Present
Predecessor: Heinrik, Duke of Adria
Successor: Incumbent
Born: 3rd of Tobias' Bounty 1904, Ulvegr
Spouse: Markus Marie, Count of Aldersberg
House: Ivanovich
Father: Unknown
Mother: Mother Maya Ekaterina

Oksana Marusya, otherwise known as Oksana of the North or Oksana of the Heartlands, was the Countess-Consort of Aldersberg by her marriage to Markus Marie Sarkozic in 1924. However, to what extent she was an actual countess is disputed due to Markus's claim to the title being unsteady in the first place. Furthermore, she was a member of the noble lineages of Ivanovich and Ruthern, later taking the surname of her unknown father. Her tenure, and life in general, was in severe poverty which only pushed her closer to her religion and to be a charitable countess when she had the chance to be.

Oksana Marusya Ivanovich was born in a far northern settlement known as Ulvegar on the 3rd of Tobias' Bounty, 1904. where her mother, Maya Ekaterina vas Ruthern, had gone to spread the teachings of Canonism. However, Maya would abandon Oksana when she was still young, leaving the girl to face the harsh and unforgiving lands alone.

This desire led her to encounter several adolescents of her age, including Markus Marie Sarkozic, the son of the Duke Heinrik Otto, with whom she would eventually unite in marriage upon their ship's arrival in Aevos.

Throughout the passing years, Oksana's indomitable spirit persevered. Embracing her calling, she donned the cloth of a deaconess within the diocese of Adria, dedicating herself to the dissemination of the sacred teachings contained within the Holy Scrolls. With unwavering devotion, she propagated the wisdom and enlightenment of the Adrianfolk and her own subjects in Aldersberg.
