Personality
Earth is known amongst his colleagues to be short tempered. He is known to frequently say curse words but can be friendly to his close friends and to strangers. He can be quickly blinded by his rage and can be reckless at times but can quickly calm down depending on the situation. He is loyal to Frostmarch and is willing to do anything for it. He is divorced to SnowTinttu whom he deeply loved but she sadly had manipulated Earth to doing whatever she desires. Earth after the divorced was completely heartbroken but is determined to punish her for her actions one day.

Birth and Childhood
Earth was born Jörð Steinar Havardr in Erthvald, Frostmarch's capital in the date of [REDACTED]. His parents were loving and caring and Earth loved them dearly. He had a happy childhood until a bandit raided their home, killing both parents and severly injuring Earth. He was taken in by Jarl Flaming to be healed and taken care of. He is saddened by the death of his parents and accepted the fact that they wont return anymore and has accepted the offer of Jarl Flaming to live with him until he is old enough to venture into the wilderness.

Teen years
In his teen years, Earth has learned how to fish and basic hunting skills that flaming taught him over the years. He looks up to Flaming as a good honest man, and his father figure.

Leaving Erthvald
Once he was old enough, Earth said his goodbyes and left Erthvald and founded a new town, Havardr Habour that is named after his last name.

The Death of Jarl Flaming and the Massacre of the Tomb of the Old Jarls
Some time after living in isolation for awhile in Havardr, Earth went to Erthvald to visit Jarl flaming. Once he got there he got word that flaming was dead and he died yesterday due to natural causes and that he was last seen cleaning up the Suðerlind castle. Earth was shocked to hear this because he didn't want someone that cared for him to die. He set up a funeral at northern Erthvald and many people attended, including the ghost of the late jarl green. He and Jarl host made a mosque next to his grave as for flaming's final wish. Earth has made a tent near Flaming's grave to reside there for awhile while he is in grief. A few days after Flaming's funeral, Earth has heard that he can ascend Flaming's soul up to be with the old Jarls. He has lured 5 people into the Tomb of the Old Jarls to execute them but was disguised as a "Tomb Exploration" but has warned everyone to leave their items and levels behind. They ignored this warning. The plan was followed and Flaming was officially ascended with the old jarls. After this, Earth was shortly branded as a "illegal bandit" and got robbed a full netherite set by choocie15, or just joe. Jarl Host has contacted joe asking to retrieve the stolen gear and to reveal who hired them. Joe has denied all requests. Earth apparently killed 3 high Tortugan officials and Tortuga has not said anything regarding this incident.

Earth's Departure from Rathnir
After hearing about Eldham's discovery and the Grand Union of Sorligste's Efforts to colonize it, Earth packs up and leaves for Eldham Via the Erthvald docks. He has arrived at the continent of Serrona and tried to meet up with the colonists that have already resided in their basecamp, Narzek.

The Founding of Xeka and the First Council members of the Xekan Council
Once Earth found Narzek, he helped found Xeka, Aswell becoming one of the first members of

the Xekan Council, He also designed the prototype of the current Xekan Flag with the help of the supreme leader, DiamondNugget. Earth has also founded and heads the Xekan military and its [REDACTED]. He also founded and singlehandedly made the city of nordstad, that is at the northwestern coast of Xeka.

The Kunir War
Earth played a minor role in The Kunir War as a strategist making plans to defend Port Crelov from the Vanakunirians. But because of a sudden fever that made him bedridden for a week he could not fight in the war. As soon as he recovered he learned about the defeat of The Allied Forces he was infuriated about Vanakunir splitting up The USSE and taking some land from Xeka.

The USSE
Earth had applied for Dual citizenship in the USSE, Xeka's closest ally, to learn more about other government systems. Earth has been friendly with the locals and studying their government as to hope he'd bring something back to Xeka once he returns. Earth also met with the USSE's government officials regarding the Vanakunir situation. Earth has also grown very fond of the vice president, Xeroise Ronango'O. Earth has also ran for the second seat of the national assembly and surprisingly won with 10 votes.

Earth's descent into insanity
Earth had fallen in love for USSE's vice president, Xeroise Ronango'O and tried everything in his power to try and marry her. She declined, Earth has been very depressed after this and tried to forget about it via drinking. It didn't work and only added fuel to the fire in which Earth's desire to commit suicide has grown on him and its not getting better for him because he had gotten no sleep due to his PTSD worsening. In his home, Earth finished his vodka and cut himself with his Netherite Sword that apparently had fire aspect so he suffered a few burns. After that he got a bow in his chest and tried to shoot himself, since his right hand was weakened he misfired and only grazed his head, knocking him out. His therapist, Frug has come to check up on him and found him unconscious and his arm having a big sword cut with the surrounding area having burns, and the arrow on the floor because the arrow ricocheted from Earth's head. Earth was swiftly taken to the Birdlin Clinic to recover, he survived the impact from the arrow and risked getting a amputation because of his arm having severe burns. He is diagnosed of PTSD and Depression and would stay in the Birdlin Clinic for some time.

Earth's Identity Crisis
Earth after his rejection and learning that Xeka is now a tortugan colony, has found it hard to do his work and would always have headaches for a unknown reason. The day after he got rejected he felt like something is missing, Earth's therapist said that his love for Xeroise has consumed him and the only purpose he became a USSE official is to just to be with her. With no goal he feels like he is useless. He feels like there is another Entity controlling him, Doing anything in its power to do what it wants. To shed blood and secure Xekan independence with blood spilt and violence, and trying to win over Xeroise despite her refusal. Earth has realized something is wrong with him when he openly declared that he will stage a coup, Earth quickly apologized and left. He tried to slit his throat with his pocket knife but decided against it because he wanted to change all of this and do this for the greater good of Xeka and the USSE. He went to his therapist multiple times to ask how to defeat this "voice" in his head.

The State of Croscograd vs Egór Tsukanov
Earth, having fixed his suicidal tendencies has been involved in the Tsukanovia Secessionist Crisis with Earth being Egór Tsukanov's Defence lawyer. The trial was set to be at 1pm EST in Laria, USSE and the judge was the honorable Rogalash and the main prosecutor was Xeroise Ronango'O. Due to no evidence that can proove Egor's innocents and Earth's unpreparedness, Egor was found guilty and was fined $5000 and banished from sovereign USSE territory. After Egor left Earth, Xeroise, and Rogalash went outside and drank alot of vodka and got drunk.

The Vodka Shipments
Earth has gotten a letter from Xeroise asking for some vodka. Having hastily prepared for the round trip journey to Laria 3 times, Earth rode off and has delivered the vodka. He went back to Nordstad to get the other shipment, it also made its way to Laria. After getting the last shipment, Earth rode off into a blizzard and getting lost. He apparently found his good friend and fellow member of the NA Attila Richthofen. Together they found their way to Laria and both parted ways. After Earth finds the Ronango'O residence he delivers the last shipments of vodka and sat down to rest. Earth Checked his pocket watch only to find out its 2am, and then his eyes started to feel heavy. "She wouldnt mind, right?" "She wouldnt mind me out of all people to stay the night here or something, right?", Earth thought to himself. Earth just accepting whatever his fate is tomorrow morning, he falls asleep in the living room of the Ronango'O residence. Once he awoke he got startled by Xeroise behind him, he quickly apologized for the intrusion and left muttering the words "Should have left after the blizzard". After Earth got home he wrote in his journal about what happened last night and what he thinks about Xeroise's Opinion on him. "I think she thinks of me as a degenerate for resting at her home, at this point I dont know what should I do next" -Page 23 of Earth's Journal.

Earth's dissatisfaction of the Xekan Council
Earth after Skjoldbrodir officially cut diplomatic ties with Xeka due to oAsr's banditing, has implented a law that no banditing shall occur and if anyone dares to do it they will be instantly banished without trial with the Supreme Leader DiamondNugget reluctantly agreeing to this law. After this Earth would complain why oAsr deserves to be removed from the Council and DiamondNugget being a incompetent leader. There were numerous coup threats given out by Earth but it was dismissed. Diamond passed the Xekan Doctrine made by Earth and the issue between the council has been resolved but Earth is still dissatisfied of the Xekan Council all being Soumeris and Earth being the only Valdic there.

USSE'S First POPGOV
The USSE had a popular council meeting for the government and the citizens to discuss and debate about reforms. Earth being a part of the government attended the POPGOV because he also had some reforms he wanted to implement into the military. In the meeting he assisted Rogalash and also gave his opinions about certain parts of the government, and he also proposed the "Earth Doctrine"; a document that was written hours before the meeting and is about the reforms of the military. It was passed and is now the way of the military. Earth would later debate on why the USSE's multiparty system was "Bullshit" due to the fact it is likely for the communist party to win every election and the multiparty system was just there to oppose the communist party.

A Tour to Remember
After the POPGOV Earth went out of the Laria courthouse and to his surprise he sees Xeroise inviting him to come with her to Garxeto; the capital of COG, Earth agrees to do so having wanting to be alone with Xeroise beforehand. He arrives in Garxeto with Xeroise asking Earth if he had come to Ellysia before. Earth admitted that he never cared about Ellysia or its existence because of him being busy with Xeka which was first established at the time. After roaming arround Garxeto for awhile Xeroise then offered Earth a tour on some ruins from Ellysia, Earth agrees to the tour so they get on a boat and go to some Ellysian ruins, with Xeroise explaining to Earth the stuff that happened during the war. After the tour Earth and Xeroise would return to Laria before parting ways. Earth wrote in his journal that he will cherish this tour as he was alone with Xeroise.

The Second USSE Elections
Earth's term as National Assembly is ending and he needed a good re-election campaign, he comes up with one so he submits his application. To his surprise his friend and colleague Pogge Richthofen is going to run against him, fortunately both were able to make a compromise that Pogge wont run against him because there are 5 people running and 5 seats available. Earth wins the elections and after that the new NA were tasked with electing the chairman. Earth first supported Attila Richthofen but after a heated debate he voted for Pogge Richthofen.

SnowTinttu and the Autonomous state of Navarna
Earth, having moved on from Xeroise, has went back to Xeka so that he could take a break from politics. While he was resting he was informed of a squatter town that just joined Xeka called Navarna, being curious he went to Navarna being greeted by their leader, SnowTinttu. Earth had felt strange, it was like he was attracted to SnowTinttu. Earth had once again fallen in love but this time the odds would be in his favor, because SnowTinttu admitted that she also felt the same way. The two shared a kiss before parting ways. After a few weeks time Earth decided to propose to SnowTinttu, to his surprise she said yes. The couple is now engaged and the date for the wedding has been decided to be August 14th 2021.

The Wedding at Navarna
The wedding between Earth and Snow was scheduled at August 14th 2021, but Earth got drunk hours before the wedding in a party which resulted in him getting lost. He was found wandering aimlessly in the Xekan jungles, the wedding was rescheduled to the next day August 15th. The wedding went well at first but because of some issues the wedding got delayed for about an hour due to a issue, but after the issue was resolved Earth and Snow was now a married couple. The afterparty was chaotic but it was also very fun, everyone left the wedding drunk.

Jarl hOst and the Havardr Family
Earth was called back to Frostmarch by Jarl hOst, the high jarl. Frostmarch was a region in the sorligste area of the Free States of Tortuga that mainly operates in rathnir. Earth goes to rathnir to be met by Jarl hOst and LeBogie Bogićev, or"Mat". Host explained that Mat was his half brother and hOst was his real father, he just had to give up Earth as a child for adoption due to unknown circumstances. Earth was shocked but was happy he was reunited with his real family.

The Relapsing Depression
Earth, now having a child with SnowTinttu has never felt this happy before. That was to change, Earth's paranoia got to him and he was under the impression that Snow didn't love him and that he was just being used. Earth suffered a relapse of his depression and never told Snow about it.

The Divorce
Earth and Snow had a argument one night, it resulted into divorce. There was no divorce trial due to Earth surrendering to Snow and letting her keep their son, there was a scuffle against Earth and Snow but were pulled apart by onlookers.

The Insanity begins.... Again
After the divorce Earth's brother, Mat came to visit after finding out Earth's divorce. Earth was reluctant to let him in but he did so anyway, Earth's son Asmunde was staying for a bit until heading for Navarna. Earth was writing a letter to Snow about how sorry he was for the things that he told her and suddenly Earth felt lightheaded, he went to ask Mat if he saw his anti depressants.

"Brother, have you seen m-"

Everything went black, Earth was suffering from a stroke and fell unconscious. His Head was cut open due to his wounds from last time reopenining and he was bleeding out. Mat and Asmunde rushed Earth to the hospital, they managed to save Earth because the paramedics said that if they were an hour late Earth would have gone into septic shock and died. Earth woke up disoriented and kept asking Mat why wont he just let Earth die, Mat never knew about the hardship Earth was dealing with so he just tried to calm him down. Earth demanded to be released and Mat had to walk Earth home. A few days later Earth started to feel insane again, just like last time.

Getting back together with the wife
Earth was at the navarna docks, reminiscing when he was with his wife. It was a cold and stormy night, Earth had nothing but his trench coat to cover him. He wanted to apologize to Snow but he didn't find her, he was about to leave until he felt a tap on the shoulder. Snow approached Earth to apologize, both apologized and hugged. They were a couple again promising to never talk about this again.

The Vanshire conflict, Death and Divorce
Earth had allegedly interrupted diplomatic talks with USSE and Vanshire and persuaded them to join, had been arrested on the account of treason, espionage, malpolitics and other crimes. He never intended to harm the USSE like this, why was he being treated like this? He was not even in the USSE government anymore and he was charged with malpolitics. Earth did not understand, he accepted what sentence he was going to get. Earth did not have any hope until he met Urabon, which Earth quickly hired as his defence attorney. The trial was hopeless due to Eldham's best lawyer was the lead prosecutor, this was none other was one Xeroise Ronango'O. When sentencing was about to occur, Xeroise announces that Snow was to divorce Earth, and to marry her. Earth was enraged and got something next to him, a baguette and attacked Snow. During the chaos that ensued, Earth was allegedly given a bottle of absinthe and he drank it, he collapsed to the ground as the drink was spiked with poison. Earth was slowly dying, he heard the sounds of fireworks and cheers. He regretted his actions, he just wanted to help. Earth thought to himself,

"This was a unjust killing, I never wanted to die in the first place. I was prideful, but this time I had good intentions!"

Earth's vision began to blur, after a short while Earth passed away. Earth's father, Host then declared that he will not take Earth's death in vein and warned the USSE to reconsider their actions against him.

The Void
Earth woke up in a dark place, he tried escaping but there were walls. A figure approached him and said:

"Looks like someone overslept."

Earth could recognize the figure's voice, it was Jarl Flaming_Swipe, Earth's mentor and the one that took him in when his family got killed when he was a child. He quickly assumed it was that strange figure that manipulated him before, since he was lonely and did not have anyone to talk to, he started to talk with the figure that is Jarl Flaming.

Resurrection
No more than 12 hours of Earth's death, his good friend Einfalt Svartur Slím has tried his very best in resurrecting him. He has tried everything, from simple prayers to sacrifices of animals. Einfalt did something unprecedented and took 50 heads from Earth's vault and started to recite a unknown prayer. Earth's ghost form, Ghost Earth was instantly killed shortly after the prayer was recited. Earth, on the other hand woke up on the floor, Einfalt was happy and filled with joy, Earth was confused but gave Einfalt his thanks and appreciated him for his actions.

The Navarna Crsis
After Earth got resurrected, DiamondNugget was summoned to Nordstad by a letter send by a anonymous messenger. Once DiamondNugget arrived he was surprised to see Earth alive and well. Earth was quickly reinstated in the Xekan council and quickly briefed by the council on what happened during his absence. The first thing he would do is ban all Navarnans from entering Xekan land and to quickly mobilize the Xekan Military. The USSE and Navarna were trying to fix this via diplomacy but Earth was having none of it, He thought the only way this could be solved is for the USSE to stay out of this and for Navarna to be reintegrated back to Xeka by fair means or foul. Due to this, DiamondNugget had a meeting with the Navarnans and talked for awhile. After a long debate and pressure from the Navarnans, Earth was to be stripped off from all power and impeached. DiamondNugget was reluctant but due to Earth threatening war he agreed, he still gave Earth the position of advisor but he declined; Earth would be granted the position of advisor later on.

Moving to Skjoldbrodir
Earth, shortly after being impeached tried his best to nullify his impeachment and to get him reinstated in the council again to no avail. Due to this he moved to the city of Steinborg in Skjoldbrodir. He treated it as his new home until one day a letter came.

The Kerfuffle at Garxeto
Earth had received a letter from his father, Jarl Host saying that he should return to Frostmarch. Earth arranges to return to Frostmarch but he briefly went to Garxeto for a unknown reason. He was greeted by his friend Louis and he told him to get in the house because they are being hunted down by Direwolf57, a alleged vampire. During this time, the sun mysteriously vanished and vampires used this opportunity to hunt and kill. Earth wasn't able to outrun Direwolf and was bitten, temporarilly turning Earth into a vampire. Earth was captured and restrained by Louis and his husband. Earth was shot in the heart using a smoothbore musket and died instantly. Louis recited a unknown prayer that led to him getting resurrected, not as a vampire but as human. After brief scuffles against Direwolf, the vampire retreated and so did Earth and his party.

Return to Frostmarch
Earth had returned to Frostmarch and had discovered he is part of the Thane Council in Frostmarch, the Thane Council is basically a council that proposes votes of ideas that can be given to Jarls. Earth got to work in suggesting reforms and a new uniform for the Military to use, both votes were accepted. During Earth's time in Frostmarch, he met Ludju who he quickly got engaged to due to a simple joke about them getting married turned into a actual thing.

Stuck in Sorrenburg
Earth and Ludju were apparently lovers now, due to this Earth was toured by Ludju in the town he owns, Sorrenburg. The tour was pleasant, Ludju appears to be caring for Earth and tries to prevent him getting hurt. Ludju was showing Earth his underground bunker, Earth drunk 3 whole bottles of whiskey in front of Ludju. Ludju panicked and told Earth to stay as he got some milk for him to drink, Earth saw and drank a ruined potion out of curiosity. Earth collapsed and Ludju quickly rushed to the scene, Earth started to have headaches and have difficulty in walking, presumably the after effects of his resurrection. Ludju quickly gave Earth a chair to sit on and started to make him a bed, determining that Earth is too weak to make it back to Frostmarch. Earth gets on the bed and remarks that he loves Ludju, then Earth fell asleep while Ludju sits quietly next to him making sure nothing bad happens to him.
