Full name: Katherine Morgan Steiner-Davion.

Previously known as: Archon-Princess Katherine Morgan Steiner-Davion.

During her rule she called herself Katrina Steiner-Davion after her grandmother, Archon Katrina Steiner for political and propaganda reasons, to show herself as a Lyran nationalist. During the FedCom Civil War, this became a quick way to tell apart supporters of her and her brother Victor: The former would call her Katrina, the latter would call her Katherine.

Implicated in her mother's assassination, Katherine sought to supplant her elder brother, Victor as the ruler of the Federated Commonwealth. Katherine eventually succeeded in assuming control of the Lyran Commonwealth during the Marik-Liao invasion of 3057, she renamed it the Lyran Alliance and proclaimed it separate from the Federated Commonwealth. She later took control of the Federated Suns' half of the FedCom when Victor Steiner-Davion left for the Clan homeworlds, by misleading and then deposing her younger sister, Yvonne. When she had attained her goal, she proclaimed herself the Archon-Princess.

This action led to the FedCom Civil War, when her brother Victor, having returned from the Clan homeworlds, sought to reclaim the throne from her, following the murder of Arthur Steiner-Davion and Victor's presumption of her guilt. After five years of fighting, Katherine and her loyalist forces surrendered to Victor's Allied forces on 20 April 3067.

Following her removal from power, Katherine was handed over to Khan Vlad Ward of Clan Wolf for his promise not to attack the Inner Sphere.
