Gwyneth Angus-Moonoak of Waffel-Paine is a former Vicereine of the Natopian Nation (1638-1648) as well as former Crown Duchess of Klaasiya (1634-1645). She is the wife of Ivo Angus-Moonoak of Waffel-Paine, the Natopian Chief Justice and mother of Natopian Emperor Zakyyr Angus-Moonoak. Throughout her life, Gwyneth has also represented the demesne of Klaasiya in the Frenzy until her resignation, presumably due to disagreements with her son the Emperor, in 1649.

== Early years, Marquise of Klaasiya  and coronation ==
 
 
 
As Gwyneth's schedule became less and less busy, especially since her son started courting an Alexandrian Princess, the Emperor's aunt moved to Klaasisitya, back then capital of Klaasiya, where she soon met her future husband - [[Ivo Angus-Moonoak]]. The two gradually fell in love with one another and were engaged in late 1631, making the then Klaasiyan residence of the Chief Justice their, and later on their Angus-Moonoak's branch's, personal property - the famous [[Hartington Hold]]. A few months after the engagement, Ivo and Gwyneth received the blessing of Emperor Naian and were married in St. Branflake Cathedral in the presence of the Emperor Naian, Pentheros Neoptolemus, the Alexandrian Emperor Edgard II, the Grand Chancellor of the Imperial Overseas Territory of Saint John (where Ivo served as Governor), and many others. The young couple quickly and easily won over the love of the Klaasiyans, the Egalians and the Draconians, who soon came to adore Ivo and Gwyneth for the passion, respect and care they showed to those people and their land. In the meantime, the two had been granted the titles Marquis and Marquise of Klaasiya by the Faro of Flaventia in recognition of their role in the demesne. After an extensive tour throughout the then Klaasiyan demesne in 1631, the then Marquis and Marquise had what was perhaps the happiest and grandest experience in their lifetime - their coronation as Crown Duke and Duchess of Klaasiya (following an invitation by the people themselves) and the christening of their son - future Emperor [[Zakyyr Angus-Moonoak Ayreon-Kalirion of Waffel-Paine]]. The couple, crowned by Emperor Naian, had almost identical crowns designed - with the only notable difference being the Duke's crown incarnating the Blood of the Safir, and the Duchess' one holding the Heart of Hope - together representing the full authority of the ruling dynasty of Klaasiya. It was an immensely symbolic and exceptional experience in the history of Klaasiya, and of the House of Waffel-Paine, that will be remembered for one thing above all others - that the joint love of the two rulers will be stronger than anything and everything else, and that this love for Klaasiya is what drives all future joint rulers of the land.
 
 
 
== Joint rule with Ivo ==
 
 
 
=== Establishing the government ===
 
Very soon after the coronation, Ivo and Gwyneth began the lengthy and difficult work of establishing the structure of government of their demesne. In the year following the coronation, the Crown Duke and Duchess decreed for the Klaasiyan Hymn and granted their marquisette title to Zakyyr, so that the demesne's government would continue long after the tenure of the couple ended. In the middle of 1634, the last part of the lengthy and healthy establishment of the Klaasiyan government took place when the Crown Duke and Duchess ceremonially signed the Fundamental Ducal Decree, which became the basic law of the demesne. The Fundamental Ducal Decree, later to become Fundamental Royal Decree, was the sole piece of law that asserted the passing down of the Crowns to Ivo and Gwyneth's successors, establishing the relative autonomy of Egale and New Dracoheim, and also regulating the way in which law is created in the demesne - through decree.
