Visilian Arthur Gregor

Visilian Arthur Gregor (IGN: Mr_VisibleG) - is the last descendant of Gregors dynasty, a leader of a religious order who call themselves "The Celestial Order of Elu". He also was a king of Black Republic and a High Chancellor of Yotenheim Empire. A talented politician, strategist who showed his competence in war and political battlefields.

= Early Childhood = Visilian Arthur Gregor was born in Ilnius, the capital of Coronian Empire. He was homeschooled by the best teachers in Coronia. Even though he had this type of luxury it was overshadowed by his low social skills due to learning in private. At the age of 6 he showed interests in strategy board games (which were very popular at his time) he usually played them with castle guards. He quickly mastered the game and started beating guards. He even beated general Lokoj (the general of 12th infantry division of Coronia) which was a pretty big deal concidering Lokoj had 12 years of experience as general of an army.

At the age of 8 Alexander Gregor his grandpa introduced him to his martial arts trainer Jakob Litkaun (At that time Colonel). At first Visilian had no luck in trainings. He was sloppy, unconcentrated, didn't had discipline, always got angry if he messed up something but Jakob was patient and continued to train him until Coronian civil war (more on that later). After a few months of training Visilian showed progress and quickly learned the basics and continued to become a professional martial arts student. At the age of 9 he got his first sword from his grandpa Alexander. The sword was small made exclusively for children of his age and had 3 golden dots on on each side of holding part. Visilian quickly started training with Jakob on the art of swords which he overcame it pretty quickly.

= Coronian Civil War = When Visilian was 10 a 5 front Coronian civil war broke out between the nobles and the Emperor (Vincent IV The Terrible). He and his mother escaped with Leonard Gregor (Leonard II) to a nearby rebel state of Black Republic where his uncle Leonard II gained high trust in government and actually became the first king of Black Republic.

His Brother Herkus Arthur Gregor who fought on his fathers side was killed in the first week of civil war. His sister Isabella Gregor died from pneumonia after the civil war.

The Coronian Civil war happend between Smite Kingdom, Rashmir Republic, Kavernija Kingdom and Black Republic leaving a small proportion to what's left of Coronia. After a slaughtering 4 years of destruction civil war ended leaving those 4 rebel states establishing a proper countries. The country was divided and the leaders of these countries wanted to reunite Coronian Empire once more but the selfishness of those leaders led into a brief conflict which ended peacefully. There were several attempts in reuniting the Coronian Empire democratically but they all failed.

= Teenage Years = When Visilian Arthur Gregor turned 14 his Uncle started taking him on trips around the Republic standing to chat with locals to gain more trust in the Royal family showing to people that they are one of them. It took over a year and Visilian was exhausted. At age 15 just a few days after his birthday Visilian started suffering from depression from which he almost killed himself. Visilian continued practicing arts of sword after he was cured from depression at the age 16. At the same age Visilian during his Uncles party met up with a same aged boy named Narburt Flamenko who was a son of a famous traveler family which he got friends with him pretty quickly. Narburt became Visilians best friend. Visilian described him as the most normal person he have ever met. Narburt didn't care about Visilians status as the Prince of Black Republic nor his money, he liked Visilian just because he was a simple guy. He told Visilian his stories as a traveler which charmed Visilian. Unfortunately Narburt wasn't at his home very often because of his family travels so Visilian waited for his returns to listen to his stories. But Sadly after 2 years Narburt was killed with his family by the bandits while on a traveling adventure. This affected Visilians mental health drastically and to recover for him was nearly impossible. He lost his one true friend in an accident he couldn't control. His uncle declared a massive bounty on those bandits and organized a national funeral to pay respects for Flamenko family. Visilians Teenage years were really depressing. But a big tragedy stroke once again in the family of Gregors. Leonard Gregor (Leonard II), after a few months when Visilian turned 18, died due to heart failure while sleeping. Visilian became the last descendant of Gregors dynasty and crowned as the new king of Black Republic.

= The King of Black Republic =

The Beginning
After Leonard Gregors (Leonard II) death, Visilian was the next in throne according to the bloodline. He was crowned after 2 weeks of Leonard Gregors (Leonard II) death. The ceremony was held in the church of Magenbeth which was located at the centre of Steinburg (Capital of Black Republic). This ceremony took an hour with all of luxurious enterings, guest confidence and an oath to the Republic. After these ceremonies Visilian called off every guest of the table and went straight home, to the castle of Steinburg. No words have been heard from Visilian until the first parliament session after Visilians coronation. He showed up at the parliament and listened to the discussion about the new tax reform which he found quite infuriating concidering the post civil war situation around ordinary peasants who could barely buy a slice of bread. Tax reform should have included a tax raise to peasants which Visilian strictly objected. The reform was adjourned for later consideration but it was enough to win over the peoples trust. Visilian realised the opportunity and took it.

At the next session of the parliament he proposed a "Renovation Plan" which was focused on restoring old and damaged buildings within the nation, use the sea access and a perfect geographical location to create a trading port below the city of Steinburg and provide a subsidies to small businesses. The "Renovation Plan" was passed by the parliament and began to improve the lives of millions of citizens. Due to investing in small businesses economy of Black Republic recovered and began to grow outpacing the other countries which broke away from Coronian Empire. It's influence began to spread quickly across the world and reached the high living standart in just 2 years! Visilian became a really beloved monarch among the citizens of Republic. He was praised for his ingenious and competence. Every leader of the continent respected him. Some were jealous some were disgusted of him but Visilian managed to stay on top it was his highest moment. What could possibly go wrong?

The New Threat Emerges
Meanwhile in the north where the land of Smite Kingdom rested a dream was still flowing of reunification of Coronian Empire. Smite Kingdom wasn't an ordinary break-away state from Coronian Empire. It was on the same level as Rashmir Republic and Kavernija Kingdom. An old king (Mangrid VII) of Smites has passed away and there was a power dispute among the nobles. Who should become the next king of Smite Kingdom? Mangrid VII didn't choose the hier. One man has stood out from the nobles. A cousin of Mangrid VII. The young and energetic Viper Bauer (Viperius I The Terrible). Viper Bauer was an influencial character withing the government of Smite Kingdom. He was a Minister of National Defense and a noble from rich family who owned huge land areas. Bauer family was the main supplier of wheat in the whole Smite Kingdom.

An Ally In The East
Quick to his surprise a nation in the East felt the same threat from Smite Kingdom as Visilian. The Republic of Rejectoria quick came into Black Republics doorstep to ask for MDP (Mutual Defense Pact). Rejectoria was an important trade partner to Black Republic. They had materials and knowledge for fast industrialisation which Black Republic needed concidering it's establishing a trade empire. The King of Rejectoria was Jack Augustus. Jack Augustus was a democratic leader same as Visilian he implemented religious freedom across his country. They both shared similar interests in strategy which they became closer even more. This MDP assured a further cooperation and closer ties to both nations. Visilian and Jack were quick to become best friends often visiting each other. They both gave speeches in both countries often incouraging not to give up on the Smite Kingdoms pressure and continue to prospere.

Reunification Wars
After Smite Kingdom established a proper military they raised a justification to reunite Coronia once and for all. They declared war on Rashmir Republic since they were the weakest of all of the Coronian states. The war didn't took to long since Rashmir didn't have a proper military force who could resist to the might of Smite Kingdom. They pillaged the cities on their way to the Capital of Rashmir. Rashmir Republic fell after 3 days and was annexed. Smite Kingdoms next target was Kavernija Kingdom which have putted a stronger fight has also fallen under the might of Smites military. Kavernija fell after 28 days and was annexed. The last nation standing in their way was Black Republic which have built a strong military force ready to counter Smite Kingdom. Viper knew he couldn't penetrate through Black Republics defenses. He needed a way for Black Republic to attack them first...

The Great War of Three Kingdoms
The day that started this war was know as "The Night of Fireflies". Smite Kingdom organized an aggressive operation towards Republic of Rejectoria by blowing up the castle of Rejectoria where Jack Augustus lived. Gladly Jack Augustus was away. After the news reached Jack he immediately informed Visilian about the attack. Both were frustrated and wanted to take revenge. Visilian and Jack announced a nation-wide mobilisation and entered a state emergency. The next day Republic of Rejectoria declared war on Smite Kingdom bringing in Black Republic.

The War of Three Kingdoms had begun...

Even though Smite Kingdom was ready for Black Republics response however they didn't expect such a massive wave of bombing. Black Republic Armed Forces (BRAF) started an all out offensive on now disorganized Army of Smites and pushed them down till the river of Mandal on the first day of war (pictures soon). Republic of Rejectoria made a small encirclement in the North and continued pushing.

BRAF proved to be more superior than Army of Smites because of unfettered strategic freedom for Generals and Field Marshals while Army of Smites were stuck on micromanaging every single move. BRAF was expected to win this war pretty quick and reunite Coronian Empire, restore the Gregors dynasty and reclaim the throne of an "Emperor of Coronians". BRAF were met like liberators of Coronia. They've received big gifts from the locals and were incouraging to keep going. But challenges struck once more...

After a few weeks of constant offensive BRAF and it's coalition partner Rejectorian Armed Forces (RAF) became exhausted. The food was getting low and tiredness chopped down BRAF and RAF troops morale. The general cabinet of coalition decided to dig in and take a rest. Army of Smite saw the opportunity and launched an offensive but miserably failed with huge loses. Both Factions dug in and waited out the winter. On spring after a break and fresh reinforcements Coalition resumed its offensive and pushed till the Rakstein (Capital of Smite Kingdom) and by the order of Visilian dug in.

While Visilian wanted to drain manpower and resources of Smites Jack was impatient. The tensions arose between Visilian and Jack until it reached the breaking point. Jack Augustus secretly ordered an all out offensive to take Rakstein. Army of Smites waited for this opportunity and countered the attack. RAF became disorganized, weak, the eastern side of the front collapsed and Army of Smites rushed down to take over the positions. Visilian became frustrated and restricted Jack Augustus to take initiative. Visilian ordered a desperate defense but it was too late, Smites have already taken the ground and started pushing out the coalition forces out.

Smites didn't gave a chance to take a breath for BRAF and pushed them without stopping and after a week they reached the starter front lines at the beginning of the war. Black Republic was in chaos. Ministers resigned and out of desperation Visilian dismissed the parliament and took over the nation forming his own emergency council. He order curfew hours and entered a strict policy for those who violates curfew hours but it didn't help due to a lack of police officers in the city. Black Republic counted it's last days... Army of Smites reached the Steinburg and put a siege under the city. The fight was fierce. Every second 14 soldiers on both sides died in the fierce battles of the city. After 10 days the siege of Steinburg was over. The city was leveled with the ground. Visilian watched the city burn and couldn't stand the loss of the Capital city. Vislian lost hope. The last stand was made at the Capital of Rejectoria where the devastated armies of BRAF and RAF fought till the very end. Visilian and Jack came up with the shameful idea of faking their deaths and escaping the continent. They met with Viper himself at the city and fought till where they played their own death by allowing Viper to wound them.

When the news of Visilians and Jacks "deaths" reached the governments they officially surrendered to Smite Kingdom thus ending The Great War of Three Kingdoms. Smite Kingdom annexed the whole region including Republic of Rejectoria thus reforming Coronian Empire but under a same or even worse dictatorship than Visilians father Bernard Gregor (Vincent IV The Worst) rule.

Viper impailed Visilian while Jack got hurt in the hand. Jack carried Visilian on the back for longest of days taking care for Visilian. Jack didn't thought Visilian will make it but he got stronger and managed to finally walk by himself. They continued their journey until they felt asleep in the mystical forrest which wasn't documented on world maps. They have found the new world...

= A New Beginning = Visilian woke up in a spruce forest. He felt like he had a hangover. A friendly face stared at him while he wasn't awake. He greeted Visilian introduced himself as Catos he took Visilian to a closest city to aid him and bring him on his feet again. He then proceed to hand Visilian a disk which played weird music. Visilian asked where he is. Catos simply welcomed him to Catpire.

Time at Catpire
Catos explained that for every important citizen in Catpire a disk was generated as a symbol to a successful journey of life. Visilian felt pleased but at the same time confused. He started asking questions about the nation.

Catpire was a dominant tyrannical Empire who ruled huge lands alone. Its Empress was named Martella. She was a shape shifter and could control its citizens minds. There were 3 important citizens of Catpire: Inspector, Yuri, and Catos. 3 disks have been generated for them and 4th one to Visilian.

This was important so Catos urged Visilian to stay in Catpire but Visilian refused and he wanted to live separately alone with his own thoughts.

Catos didn't hold him for much. He gave most necessary gear to survive and let Visilian go into a wilderness. Visilian traveled for half a day until he crossed the Yoten river. Suddenly he felt some sort of relief and started building his own home. He realised that somehow while he was in Catpire he felt a minor headache but it suddenly just went away after he crossed the river of Yoten. Visilian thought of Catos describance of the Empress that it was something related to Martellas mind control. Visilian needed to do something...

= Yotenheim Rebelion = Visilian started organising a rebelion. He built a bunker which he named "The Hope" and started gathering gear for other citizens to rise up against Martellas tyrannical regime. Visilian started a recruitment campaign helping other trapped citizens to escape Catpires regime. Visilians rebelion grew larger that it needed a name. He named it Yotenheim Rebellion after the Yoten river. Tensions rose so high that Martella took a notice. She became paranoid so she sent one of her representatives, Inspector. Inspector traveled to Yotenheim rebellions base to see what's happening. After he arrived he was welcomed very nicely. Visilian met with Inspector and Visilian had only one demand: Grant independence for Yotenheim rebellion. Inspector without any further questions signed the pact and returned to Catpire. It was a day to celebrate. Yotenheim was the first nation to declare its independence from Catpires regime. Martella felt the pressure and immediately took action...

The Four Day Lockdown
After Yotenheim declared independence Martella put Catpire under a lockdown blocking every citizen from an outside world. Catos realised that Martella was becoming weak and exploited this opportunity to start a revolution.

Yotenheim wasn't sleeping either. Visilian had a plan to take down Catpire once and for all and liberate the citizens out of Martellas regime. Visilian gathered his militia and after 4 days started a "March on Eskorg" (Capital of Catpire). Little did Visilian knew Catos was ahead of him. The day Visilians militia entered Eskorg Catos used this opportunity to assassinate Empress Martella.

The Dawn of Eskorg. The New Ally
The duel was fierce but Catos came victorious. Catos declared Catpire dead and proclaimed Republic Of Eskorg. Catos met Visilian at the center of Eskorg and signed an alliance treaty. Catos as a thank you gift transferred some lands to Yotenheim. A great friendship has started between those countries. The city state of Yotenheim helped funding the castle of Eskorg, established trade treaties and so much more. The strong alliance looked inseparable until that one fateful day when the tragedy struck...

= '''The Fall of Eskorg. Early Yotenheim Republic''' = Sad news reached Visilian as Catos has suddenly passed away. This touched Visilian personally so he began his preparations for funeral. The next day Visilian attended Catos funeral and gave the speech: "As the days have passed since the fall of Catpire we hoped for a bright future which we received but after the passing of our beloved leader of Eskorg Catos it seems so dark yet motivational enough to continue his work and bring these two nations into glory we have hopped for...". Eskorg was left without a leader, the new hier to Eskorg was chosen to be Inspector but he personally didn't want to take the position of the leader of Eskorg because politics wasn't his thing so he approached Yotenheim to sign over Eskorg temporary until a new hier appears. A quick meeting was assembled discussing several topics with the new leader of Eskorg Inspector about nations future. Visilian established a council system within Yotenheim and declared himself the High Chancellor of Yotenheim thus declaring a Republic and after a long discussion Yotenheim Republic accepted Inspectors offer to incorporate Eskorg as a territorial unit in the Yotenheim Republic. The meeting settled in a good mood for both sides. Yotenheim Republic gained land over historical capital of Catpire and Inspector "got rid of" his position. As the newly formed council and Inspector proceed to exit The Council Palace a huge explosion was heard from a distance. One of the historical Yotenheim defensive towers was blown up. Everybody at Yotenheim were confused and started panicking while Inspector stod frozen cold and quoth: Hinata...

= Yotenheim Civil War = As the ashes of the blown up tower went away. A new threat has emerged. A self declared anarchist Hinata shows up to the lands of Yotenheim Republic seeking to destroy the principles of democracy. Visilian declared a huge bounty on Hinatas head thus sparking a wave of patriotism around Yotenheim Republic to find and destroy anarchists once and for all.

As the days passed Yotenheim Republic started to gain strength in terms of economical and military. Yotenheim Republic started to expand achieving the golden age for Yotenheim. But there are always obstacles for a great success. Near the city of Yotenheim a new town was built called Nidre. Nidre was a private town of a rich business man Wywern who implemented his own tax system which angered Visilian. Visilian insisted to remove the tax system from a town but Wywern did not listen. After 2 days Wywern declared an independent city state of Nidre causing panic among Yotenheim council. Visilian called up an army and marched towards Nidre but Wywern was prepared. He hired mercenaries and sent them to defend Nidre. 1st day of Civil War began. As the Yotenheim army reached the gates of Nidre they were met with traps that caused disorganization between the army. Nidre mercs launched an offensive but Visilians quick thinking repealed the attack causing Nidre mercs to retreat. Visilian ordered a full incirclement around the city of Nidre which was successful without any opposition. The 2nd day was fatal. Yotenheim army closed in to the center of Nidre thus wiping the opposition. In the desperate defense Wywern from out of nowhere attacked Visilian. The duel was quick to end. Visilian killed Wywern thus ending the Yotenheim Civil War. Remaining Nidre mercs managed to escape and Nidre was incorporated as a part of Yotenheim city because how close the city was. It was a victory for Yotenheim Republic, but for how long?

The Elections of Yotenheim Republic
As the anarchist group got larger and attack damage increased Visilian started to panic as this threat was inevitable without a fight. One day to escape Yotenheims business Visilian traveled to a small forrest on the east coast of Yoten river to meditate. But to his surprise he found a sleeping man in his place where Visilian used to meditate. He looked familiar, too familiar... As Visilian started to waken up the sleeping man, he couldn't believe his eyes. That person was a long gone Jack Augustus. Visilians best friend and long time ally during The War of Three Kingdoms. After Jack was woken up he immediately attacked Visilian but quickly stopped as he recognized an old face of this friend. Jack was lost and had no idea how he got there. Both returned to the city of Yotenheim where Visilian gave Jack a shelter and told him his story here. Jack couldn't believe Visilian but he couldn't deny the weird nature of this world too. Soon after Jack entered the political life of Yotenheim and started Introducing reforms. He quickly became the minister of foreign affairs. Jack Initiated the building of the national park of Yotenheim and the Yotenheim Fort. He helped to found a new city of Dogeville which became the 3rd city in Yotenheim Republic. With Jacks increased popularity among the citizens of Yotenheim Republic Visilian came up with the plan. He declared the First elections of Yotenheim. Quickly 3 candidates sworn in that are Jack Augustus - a democratic reformer, Marxiteris - a Communist sympathiser and Kertos - a liberal reformer. Marxiteris came quick as the most favourite candidate for a new High Chancellor of Yotenheim Republic. He promised a strong army and introduced socialist reforms which were really appealing to the citizens of Yotenheim. Jack Augustus was second and needed a boost in popularity if he wanted to win elections. Lucky for him Marxiteris for unknown reason committed arson in Eskorg promoting the "Yotenheim nationalism". Visilian immediately disqualified him from elections and put him on house arrest. Jack Augustus was finally the most favourite candidate of them all but Kertos started cathing up with him. Kertos gained a lot of support by promising Dogeville to be it's main concern thus winning Dogeville residents hearts.

As the elections day came voting was finally open and Jack won slightly by gaining 52% of the votes. After the results were announced Dogeville residents in front of Jack Augustus face declared independence of Dogepire as Jack Augustus asked for an advice Visilian told Jack to give them what they want. Jack Augustus granted Dogepire independence and guaranteed to protect them at any cost thus establishing really close relations between those 2 nations. But for how long will it last?

= Formation of Yotenheim Empire = Jack Augustus formed the cabinet. He appointed Visilian as a foreign affairs minister and Inspector minister of military. Jack implemented military reforms thus forming official divisions within the nation. Visilian initiated the new building of a city called Wingsburg. Jack Augustus declared the formation of Yotenheim Empire making himself the Imperial President of Yotenheim Empire. After army reforms Yotenheim Empire had a sizable military and a strong leadership. Yotenheim Empire remained it's democratic principles thus achieving the stability and fast economical growth in The Empire. Jack Augustus feeling the nostalgic days of Rejectoria founded New Rejectoria bringing Yotenheim Empire to have 5 cities. It was the greatest extent of Yotenheim Empire. It was a new Coronia that Visilian dreamed of and new victories to come. Nothing could stop Yotenheim Empire to reach the skies.

The 14 Day Reign of Dogepire
After declaration of independence Dogepire declared itself to be an absolute monarchy. In the first days the nation was developing. Growing it's economy and political strength. Untill when people started to disappear. For unknown reasons a nation full of life in 13 days became a ghost town. Not knowing what's happening Yotenheim Army marched to Dogeville without incountaring a single soul. It was a weird experience for Yotenheim Soldiers but at least Dogeville was incorporated back into Yotenheim thus marking the end of Dogepire and the end of 14 Day Reign.

A Treason Within the Government
As the Yotenheim Empire grew to be it's absolute there are always threats from the foreigners to disturb the peace. Visilian grew suspicious of anarchists since the last attack happen before Elections of Yotenheim. Something wasn't right for Visilian. His plan was going in shambles. He needed anarchists to act. It can't be that anarchists retired. Were they? Visilian grew suspicious that something was happening from the inside. He started an investigation calling Jack Augustus and Inspector for a meeting. Nothing was achieved during that meeting thus leaving Visilian alone. To wait for a response... He needed to make a move...

One day Visilian received a letter from unknown person. The letter was quite heavy so he thought that might be an explosive. Visilian opened it carefully but to his surprise it wasn't an explosive. The letter contained more letters which were the letters directed to Hinata. Of course it was an anonymous person who sent Hinata those letters talking about Yotenheims government work and a close analysis of every official within Yotenheims Empire including Jack and Visilian. Visilian noticed that those letters were written by the same person. His handwriting was familiar. Visilian did some digging in his own letters received from the government officials. Visilian couldn't believe himself. The letters were sent by non other than Inspector himself. Visilian was shoked. He couldn't believe that a close friend of his could have betrayed him so harshly. That's when Visilian made a move. Visilian called a secret meeting with Jack to present him the evidence he found. At first Jack refused to believe that the evidence was real but Visilian kept convincing Jack to take action until both decided what to do.

The next day Visilian called an ordinary council member but only Inspector showed up. Inspector waited for 9 minutes until he heard a thunderous march of many people. Door opened. Visilian was standing with Yotenheims army behind him. Everyone got in a meeting hall and Visilian started a speech. Visilian talked about values of friendship and concerns about anarchist. The speech ended up in Visilians order to arrest Inspector. Inspector resisted and managed to escape outside but he didn't get far enough as the army have captured him. Inspector continued to resist but to no use. Inspector was locked up in the prison. The first move was made now it was time for an anarchist move.

Attack on the Yotenheim Prison
Visilian ordered a high security alert in prison and stayed patrolling with guards. Visilian knew that Inspector was too valuable to loose for Hinata so he was expecting his move. Expectations proved to be true...
