TSARINA climbing to the throne over the bodies of the men she destroyed either on a bloodied battlefield or a scented boudoir.

TSARINA masking her identity, amusing herself by indulging in erotic experiments in the mud huts of the small villages where her army quartered its prostitutes.

TSARINA naked to the waist, blonde hair streaming, she challenged a rival in love to a duel to the death before the awed gazes of her fierce warriors.

TSARINA personally selecting and privately sampling the brawny, virile young guardsmen who were forced to obey her commands and cater to her whims.
