Guena was sharp and intelligent, a ruthless political machinator. When her father died, her young nephew [[Mikhail (Royal Blood)|Mikhail]] was the next-in-line to the throne; knowing that Mikhail's youth would lead to an unstable leadership, Guena quickly married Aurelian, so as to provide her father with an alternate heir better disposed to rule Varuz. | Guena was sharp and intelligent, a ruthless political machinator.

After becoming Duchess, Guena used her political influence to control Varuz in secret, forming both a professional and romantic attachment to Aurelian's advisor, Lord [[Bernhardt]]. The two of them worked in secret against Aurelian's wishes, whenever they felt that he was making poor decisions in his capacity as ruler. Most notably, they attempted to broker peace with Duke [[Conrad (Royal Blood)|Conrad]], despite Aurelian's urge to go to war. | After becoming Duchess, Guena used her political influence to control Varuz in secret, forming both a professional and romantic attachment to Aurelian's advisor, Lord [[Bernhardt]].

Shortly after the [[Twelfth Doctor]] and [[Clara Oswald]]'s arrival in Varuz, Aurelian discovered the truth of Guena and Bernhardt's affair. Enraged, he kept them separated for much of the remainder of his time as ruler. Guena was sceptical of [[Lancelot (Royal Blood)|Lancelot]] upon his arrival in Varuz, and after Aurelian sent his knights away to aid Lancelot with his quest, it was her who persuaded him to recall them. | Shortly after the [[Twelfth Doctor]] and [[Clara Oswald]]'s arrival in Varuz, Aurelian discovered the truth of Guena and Bernhardt's affair.
