When the last Aslan to rule Victoria was sent to the guillotine, the angry masses rushed forward to trample his reign into dust.

Full description

The crown passed on through generations by the Aslan king of Victoria, one of the emblems of Victorian royal power. When the final Aslan king to rule Victoria was forced up to the guillotine, this crown fell to the ground, sustaining some damage as a result. After tensions were allayed once more, yet still no successor was found to the kingship, the crown and the other royal emblems were stowed in the deepest parts of Londinium's royal palace, to ensure these treasures would not be stolen again.

After the expelling of the Dracos and the Aslans becoming Victoria's new sovereign rulers, this Draco crown was reforged and remodeled to fit Aslan ceremonial style, and formally became the crown of the new dynasty's monarch. Henceforth, accompanying the successive Aslan kings, it bore witness to Victoria's rise and fall.

From the commencement of the War of the Four Nations, the Lords endlessly debated in Parliament whether they should interfere in the Gaul-Leithanien conflict, but the will of the king at the time, Frederick III, was extremely clear—he firmly believed that entering this war would sweep clear the shadows from Victoria's future. At this time, Victoria had not yet achieved supremacy, and more rotten still was that owing to Gaul's own interference, Columbia had declared independence, losing Victoria a vast tract of territory. Some of the dukedom were skeptical of the King being so impatient to throw them into a war, suspecting it as the eagerness to wash clean his own humiliations and win back some superfluous prestige in the dukedom's eyes, but the Lion King was no doubt looking even farther ahead...

History ultimately stood testament to Frederick III's vision.

Effect

Increases the HP, ATK, and DEF of enemies by 30%. Bosses in Dreadful Foes (and only Dreadful Foes) will have their HP and ATK/DEF increased by 30% and 15%, respectively, which stacks with the previous effect for a total of +69% HP and +49% ATK/DEF!

Acquisition

The Victoria Crown is one of the six random "cursed" Collectibles given upon starting a Calamity Faceoff run, the others being Ursus Chachek, Leithanien Sceptre, Gaul Mantle, Half-Refined Diamond, and Sigil of Tragodia. As such, the player must have completed a Castle Sightseeing or Formal Investigation run first before the Victoria Crown can be obtained.
