Ausonicis Aristei

Ausonicis Aristei is a Huitca-Bardonian politician, mercenary leader of the Snake Legion and former leader of the Restorationist Nationalist Party of Bardonia.

Early life
Information about Ausonicis' youth is unknown, some details are given to us by his adopted son ,Alexander Tiberius, in his diary. Among the details given, Alexander states that Ausonicis was born in the spring of 201 TE, and was the first of three brothers, namely Thanatos and Aurelius. It is also said that Alexander himself was adopted, and that he was actually part of the Hapaqalchi, a Huitca noble family,who abandoned Alexander for unspecified reasons, who was later adopted by Ausonicis. it is said that at the age of 20 he joined a mercenary group, which was involved in the Huitca Restauration Front.

The HRF and Synadenos
Ausonicis was, towards the end of the conspiracy, a leading figure in the HRF, especially for the attempt to revive the conspiracy after its discovery as the Grand duchy of Synadenos. Unlike his mercenary group, who fought only for money, Ausonicis really joined the cause, even if he was Bardonian, to the point that one of the two parents is assumed to be Huitca, also explaining why he is fluent in that language. It was at this time that Ausonicis met Corren An'nora T"arga're'yahsv Dandelion Tizoc Dougwald Cr'ythsai"m O'Valmen Luon Mc Spiegal, having is first contact with the Tizoc House

With the discovery of the conspiracy and its subsequent dissolution, Ausonicis tried to reorganize the front, in the form of the Grand Duchy of Synadenos, an island nation with which he hoped to establish a small thalassocracy in the Phagosian sea, and subsequently invade Centaris with the help of mercenary group. The members of the Front closest to him join him, but the plot was discovered once again and Centaris threatened to invade Synadenos, ending the attempt to reorganize the Front, and making Ausonicis focus on politics in his homeland.

The RNPB
Transferred to Dorasterrock in 220 TE soon after the end of the Second Western March, reflects on how that war had been a pyrrhic victory, at the cost of a huge war effort, little territory earned and the near dissolution of the Bardonian State. According to Ausonicis, Bardonia was slowly but surely falling, so in the winter of 220 TE, together with Alexander, Ayotli and Jaenera he founded the Reformist Nationalist Party of Bardonia (RNPB), according to the following manifesto:

"1) A nation cannot exist without patriotism, traditions and a cultural identity. These are FUNDAMENTAL for a nation to exist, so the RNPB fully supports them

2) Peace is time to prepare for the next war, so in those times it is imperative to create a strong economy that can withstand long years of war

3) Bardonia MUST be the leading nation of Syltor, so it must expand its influence on the continent as much as possible, either by politic influence or by force

4) it is vital for the Bardonian superpower to be feared as much as possible. Bardonian fear can only be achieved by not having the slightest mercy for anyone who dares challenge it "

Although none of the founding members won elections to the Senate in 221, following the resignation of the head of the senate, the RNPB succeeded in electing Barmy, a member, as head of the senate, also passing an act on the economy.

The party would later join the BIPP, with which it shared the same ideals. In the senate elections of 231, this union managed to get 3 members out of 8 seats into the senate, but Ausonicis was excluded from the senate. At that time, he married Jaenera.

The transfer to Snydiia
After the Dorassterrock battle in Winter of 235 TE, Ausonicis would have abandoned the city in order not to live under an occupation by the Parahands and on Ayotli's advice, he would head to Nandor, more precisely to Snydiia, a bastion of the Huitca culture, which had fascinated Ausonicis since the days of the HRF. He lived there for most of his life, and was personally acquainted with the tsar of Pikulia, Dmitry Pikulovsky, and became a close friend. When Dmitry was later exiled, Ausonicis continued to exchange letters with him. He then joined the NANSAS, a party in Hiarllia.

In Spring of 253 TE, when a mutual defense pact was signed between Nandor and Centaris, Ausonicis was known not only for his outbursts toward the governament, but also for personally insulting the Tlatoani Nyklos II, his rigth hand man Dusk and calling Hiarliia a "hole of cowards, traitors and the real murders of the Huitca Federation". Since then, Ausonicis started to feel disgust foe Hiarliia and his tlatoani, and started to allign himself with the Pikulians. Later he would have been exilied for attemping a coup d'etat in Hiarliia, giving him the chanche of founding a mercenary group: the Snake Legion.

The conflict with Myterria
Shortly after the Legion began recruiting, an able young man, Ferre, quickly rose through the ranks and became an officer. When Ausonicis attempted to create a headquarters for the group, Ferre revealed that he was a noble in the Caliphate of Al Naas, a vassal of Synderia, and that they had recently obtained a castle from enemies. In fact, Al Naas had recently fought against the bandits of Myterria, another neighboring nation, who intended to create a kleptocratic empire in the area. This, of course, annoyed the neighboring states and Al Naas led a coalition against Myterria, managing to capture Arcem but failing to land at Dusk Port. The failure led to a truce being signed, where Al Naas obtained Arcem, which was the castle that Ferre offered to Ausonicis. The settlement of the Legion in the area unbalanced the balance in favor of Al Naas, who in the autumn of 276 conquered Dusk Port, putting an end to the dream of the ambitious bandits

Thelephrasti Ausonii
Translatable as "Memoirs of Ausonii ", it is the personal diary of Ausonicis. It was originally written in the Synadenite language, but Ausonicis also wrote a translation into the travellers' tongue,

Orationes
A collection of his speeches. In reality, these speeches were written separately and it was his son, Alexander Tiberius, who united them under a single book.

Political doctrine
Ausonicis dedicated his life to affirming his ideals, but they, not being recognizable with any political ideology, are commonly called "Ausonicis Doctrine" or "Aristeism". This ideology provides the following points

1) The Community must be meritocratic, rewarding successes based on merit and punishing those who neglect their duty

2) The duty of the Community leader is to ensure the well-being of his members

3) The members have the power and duty to advise the leader, but every act of rebellion must be punished following a criterion of severity of the act

4) The absence of leaders within a community is unacceptable, as it is necessary for someone to regulate the excesses of the various members
