Basilius Drake

Basilius Drake is a Helsian citizen currently living in Grimsgil. He served a term as a senator of Helsia and served in the militaries of Helsia and the Confederation of Garxijos. He was co-governor of Grimsgil alongside Upmost.

The January Upheaval
Drake spent the days of the January Upheaval opposing Uraki aggression and Buoyo's proposal to submit bloodlessly. He enlisted in the army of the great coalition and helped construct the (unfinished) fort Gregory in Rodinnbrok before being wounded and driven away by a bandit attack. During this time he and Crimson (co-founder of Helsia) began construction of fort Perseo in western Aionios, the legitimacy of which is in question due to the nation it was built to defend against (Uraka) being given the land peacefully and becoming Helsia's ally. Many in the CoG wanted to submit to Uraka and become an Uraki province, Drake and many others opposed this and pushed for refusal of Uraka's ultimatum. Fortunately, the majority of the population opposed surrender and the Confederation joined the great coalition against Uraka.

The Dissolution of CoG
He was a supporter of Helsia during the civil war in CoG. He Voiced opposition to the SPG and Buoyo's submission to Uraka. The war ended with Nueva Trinidad surrendering. He voted in favour of dissolving the Confederation, and opposed attempts to reinstate it in the months following the Coglapse.

The Iron Brotherhood
Drake opposed the rebel government in Aionios during their civil war and supported the government in Ycaz. After Aionios was annexed by Uraka, the rebels were given a thin strip of land between uraka and the Simulami empire. Tensions were high between Helsia and the newly created "Aionios Impervia" and raiding parties from Helsia would frequently target what was left of Aionios, though these were independent acts not ordered by any government. Aionios joined the Iron Brotherhood (an alliance created by Scylding) as they believed Helsia would attempt an invasion. During Drake's term as Senator, he and the consul Aaronx4b were sent to a diplomatic meeting with the leaders of the Iron Brotherhood to diffuse tensions. Arguments started between the leaders of Aionios and Aaron, even to the point where Aaron was temporarily banned from the meeting. Drake managed to calm the situation and assured the Iron Brotherhood's leadership that Helsia had no intention of starting conflicts with Aionios Impervia or the Iron Brotherhood, and both sides left the meeting in peace. While at the meeting, Drake talked to the leader of Illystra (Theseus), a nation in the IB, who voiced concerns about the alliance and Illystra's future. A non aggression pact was proposed, but it was denied in the Helsian senate. Drake recieved a tour of Illystra and was given a trident as a gift. Illystra left the Iron Brotherhood soon after.

Conflicts
Drake was involved in the January upheaval and fought against bandits sent by Uraka in Roddinbrok. though he lost the engagement, He was on the winning side of the conflict.

He was also involved in the CoG civil war. He wasn't present for the only military operations of the war (SPG seizing Miklagard and Garxeto, Helsia taking them back) but neither of them had any combat anyway.

Drake never fought in any battles because none of the wars he was involved in featured any.
