She probably prefers that title over Empress.
Besides the Heir apparent is not called Prince Prosek.
While Emperor Prosek is the Emperor, he has not taken royal trappings and
titles for the political system.

What does everyone else think? I personally think that he has adopted the trappings of a royal court myself. Just look at the picture on page 192 in the main book. That sure looks like a throne room to me. One of those trappings of a royal court he hasn't taken. I'm just curious if any one else has ever noticed that and if they change it for their game. Since it's such a minor change(call her Empress instead of "The Lady Prosek") and shorter to say, I and my friends refer to her that way. Besides I think Empress sounds sooo much better.

ummm, if you want to give her the title, go ahead.

personally, I think it's more than a little irrelevant.

I dont think they refer to her as Empress is due to the fact that she does not hold the throne in conjuction with Karl and she IS merely his wife.

I am by no means an Anglophile, but I dont think the husband of the Queen Elizabeth of England is referred to as King...I could be wrong.

There are no stats that I know of anywhere. The info in FoM is the greatest detail. There is a interesting blurb in Lone Star...she does not know about the genetic anti-aging pills, thinking they are instead just vitamins. This tells me she's not at all involved in various aspects of government or control.
For anyone else interested, the rest of the Prosek family is mentioned in CWC after the write-ups on Karl and Joseph.
