Lord Tiberius Jakivus Frederick-William, known also as Tiberius Jakivus III, is the Head of the House of Tiberia, Lord Protector of the Purificationist Orthodox Faith, Duke of Tiberia, and Chief of the Republic Armed Forces High Command of Sundorboren with the rank of Marshall of Borea.

Description

Tiberius can often be found wearing the uniform of the Tiberian militia forces back during the days when he was a Duke in the Drakedom of Drachenland. He has a well-trimmed brown mustache, complimented by his well-combed brown hair. He has well-defined cheekbones and can often be found with a face of pompous superiority becoming of a noble such as himself (for reference on his appearance, see Kaiser Wilhelm II of Germany). He classifies himself as a "big game hunter", but is actually very bad at hunting. He is also very intelligent, and enjoys studying history and military strategy. During his time trapped in the Nether, he used his cunning to convince the evil creatures of that realm to bring him one book every week, which he used to pass the time to avoid slipping into madness. However, they eventually took away this privilege, and he went crazy. Some of this eccentricity remains, evidenced by his peculiar habit of running around in circles for no reason in the middle of walking.

History

Name

He was born Zenaadt Raskiluus Welhulme, which roughly translates into common Alathran as "Zeneth Rascilus William". However, eventually had his name changed to Tibier Jaakehns Welhulme, which roughly translates as Tiberius Jakivus William, after discovering that he was a descendant of St. Tiberius on his mother's side. He is thus sometimes called Tiberius Jakivus III. After marrying his true love, Ida Frihdrehck, they hyphenated their last name to "Frihdrehck-Welhulme", or "Frederick-William". I would also like to mention his now-dead son. His name was Raskiluus Tibier Jaakehns Frihdrech-Welhulme, but was often referred to as Tiberius Jakivus IV, despite his name translating as Rascilus Tiberius Jakivus Frederick-William.

Early Life in Jhai

Tiberius was born in a nice house in Jhai. He played endlessly with the other boys on his street, two of whom would one day be Consul, and he always enjoyed coming home from some sort of game and being greeted by one of his mother's pies. However, the family's farmhand, Jaan, died on a hunting trip with Tiberius's father, Leopaulde (often translated as Leopold), and so a twelve-year-old Tiberius would pick up the slack. He became quite good at farming, and whenever he was not working in the wheat fields, he could be found reading about history.

Early Military Career

When he was about 17, his father, a high-ranking navy officer, sent Tiberius to the South Arkitusian Naval Academy. He graduated as an Ensign, and quickly rose the ranks, eventually becoming a Captain. However, around this time, his mother, Ælizabaadte (often translated as Elizabeth or Bethany), died. He mourned her for a long time, but eventually found solace when he married the love of his life, Ida Frihdrehck. They had one son, Raskiluus, whom he loved dearly and whom he taught everything there is to know about history, the military, and farming. However, when Raskiluus was just five years old, he died. Tiberius, despite having recently been promoted to Admiral, was heartbroken, and he went into a deep depression. His two old friends, the Consuls, grew inactive, so Tiberius became the de facto leader of South Arkitus.

Time as Duke of Tiberia

He was soon given the opportunity to travel to the continent of Adelaa'r and start a new state that would be under Dracheburc. He and his wife sailed to the continent and found a small, abandoned city, where they formed the Duchy of New Jhai. The Duchy found a few new citizens and eventually changed its name to Tiberia. Soon after, however, it united with Dracheburc to form the Drakedom of Drachenland.

Captivity

One day, while Tiberius was on a nice stroll in the Tiberian port, he felt a sharp pain in his chest and fell unconscious. When he woke up, he was in the Nether. For nine years, the Nether-creatures tortured him and told him secrets so evil and ancient that his mind could barely handle them. For a few years of captivity, he was aloud to read books, which kept him from going insane, but eventually he really did go crazy. After he was set free, his beard and hair sagged to the floor and his blue Drachen Imperial Navy uniform was tattered, and so he shaved and now dons a nice mustache and bushy hair as opposed to his former beard and purposefully-bald head. He had been aged so much in the Nether that his orange hair had turned brownish-red. He soon learned that his wife had died while he was in captivity.

Time in Styvaria

In the ruins of Tiberia stood the Styvarian province of Briarthorn. He was allowed by the Lord of Briarthorn, Torlinn Sanuri, to retain his old titles and live in the province, but to stay subservient to Torlinn. He soon joined the Styvarian Royal Navy and Styvarian Expeditionary Force and became a close advisor to King Zeneth The Unifier.

Time as Vice President of Texasia

Seeing an opportunity to form a republic in the Prsata desert, he and a man from Nullhi City formed the Republic of Texasia, with Tiberius becoming both the Vice President and commander of the Texasian Army. However, after betraying the Republic, he started a small war with some other nearby small towns and fled.

Id'Eskana and Flumenia

For a while, Tiberius lived in Id'eskana until the death of his close friend, Jeroboam, moving to a town which had seceded from Id'eskana called Flumenia. Here, he spread Purificationism, and it became the official religion of the city-state.

Today

After a while, he moved out of Flumenia and to the Republic of Sundorboren. The chancellor of Sundorboren, Theuderik, valued his military experience and gave him the Republic's highest military rank, Marshall of Borea, and put him in charge of organizing their military.

He was then re-given the title of Duke of Tiberia and lives there today, where he writes poetry and works on organizing the Republic Armed Forces.
