I'm out of the loop here, what's this about?

Empress is considered the best Denuvo cracker in the world. Mostly because she's the only one that is consistently successful.

There are two major trains of thought regarding her. The first: she's a batshit crazy narcissist who is more toxic than a Kardashian-Jenner family dinner where Kanye and Pete Davidson show up unannounced. The second: she's the goddess and the most wonderful woman on the planet and one day she'll recognize my loyalty and I will have a place in her New World Order.

I wouldn't be surprised if Empress is a group of two or more people. At least one to handle the "persona" of Empress and the rest to do the cracking. Artificial personas and obfuscated identities are Internet 101.

Could also be one person with multiple personalities. It would explain a lot.
