The figure you are referring to is Esther, a key character in the biblical Book of Esther. In the story, Queen Esther reveals her Jewish identity to King Ahasuerus (also known as Xerxes I) in order to save her people from a plot to exterminate them, which was orchestrated by Haman, the king's advisor. Esther's courage and actions ultimately lead to the salvation of the Jewish people, and her story is commemorated during the Jewish festival of Purim.
