History

Early Life:

Cornelia li Britannia is the daughter of Emperor Charles zi Britannia. As a child, she was a dotting older sister to young Euphemia li Britannia, and remained very protective of her even as an adult. She and Euphemia were also rather close to their half siblings Lelouch vi Britannia and Nunnally vi Britannia during the earlier years.

Cornelia became the head of security for the Imperial Palace. Surprisingly, she was ordered by Lady Marianne herself to withdraw and disable security. Cornelia begrudgingly obliged. That night, Marianne was mysteriously assassinated and Nunnally vi Britannia was badly wounded, resulting in her becoming crippled. Cornelia enthusiastically investigated her death for years, but was unable to discover what happened to her.

Cornelia built up a feared reputation during campaigns involving the defeat of small rebellions in Britannian Areas - conquered states not given the same rights as Britannian citizens.
