Background

Childhood & Younger Years

Friedrich was born on the Tarsonus Duchy Plantation. He was raised the same as any other child, getting to know the world around him. But since his father is a stalwart Alkarian, he sent him for military duty on Meridiem when he was 12. He spent 15 years on the continent, protecting Alimar from Orc and other barbarian attacks. He became more like a machine than a man, with the same thing every day and the occasional attack or patrol. He hardly had any correspondence with his family back home and was counting every day until he can go home.

The Colonel

Friedrich has since got off the boat and has gotten back from his duties. He has learned much of the current events and has learned of his father's retirement and him obtaining much of the family fortune. Currently he doesn't even want any money or property, since he is used to a soldier's life. He will probably join the Celdin military and make himself known before he gets into politics and economical affairs. With his father's fortune, it won't be that tough to just keep getting a steady supply of money to pay for whatever he needs, even if he gets a regular military job. Who knows, maybe he will rise fast due to his past?

The Young Chancellor

After a few months being a Colonel in the Celdin military, his father retired and made him the new Military Chancellor. He is new to politics, but he will adapt quickly and take over the job of his father. He took most of the fortune, but will probably invest it through various things as he doesn't need most of the money. This is an even bigger challenge than Meridiem one would think.

A Simple Life

Due to the stress involved in being the chancellor, Friedrich decided he was not ready for political life. He soon resigned and went traveling to various locations, and lived in laboo the longest. There he trained his mind and body, and relieved himself of the past stresses. Duely, the Dragoons came to the area and founded it as their meeting location. Seeing and hearing one of these meetings interested Friedrich, in which after a conversation, he joined the Corps of the Dragoons. Thus he went back into public life, taking over the operation of the LTTC and working his way back into society.

Tracello

Moving south to a newly established governorship, Tracello which was previously Port Wolfe, Friedrich declared citizenship. He will focus still on managing the LTTC, but also has joined the volunteer army, in an effort to prove his worth.

Life Abroad

Friedrich is starting to get into the spirit of managing a large company, thus he is largely living outside of his home in Port Wolfe. He is helping Alberea and is living in their current outpost by Hammerforge, establishing another store.

Being Made a King

A letter was sent to Friedrich stating that the King of Valikorlia had given him the title and disappeared. He thought on taking it for a bit and then just decided to take the throne for himself. He knows he can turn it around and make it better than it once was.

The Deposed King

After a brief unrest and civil war, Friedrich had stepped down as King.

Life After

Friedrich then moved on with his life, along with a parting gift from the Valikorlian treasury. He then settled down in Greendale and regained his normal life. He spent most of his days running the LTTC and rarely visiting his father that lived just across town. He studied Economics in his free time and came to the height of his father on the subject. He soon shall start with a book involved in studying the current economic situation.

Consul? Maybe

With the current election Friedrich would like to step back into the political scene. He might be willing to spend quite a bit of money on the election, hopefully to win it, and bring back his love for politics.
