Alpharius

= Alpharius of Chevkri = Harrowmaster, Spear of Truth and Deceit, the harrowing axe, the shrouded nomad, the son of the night, the unending watch, among other names, is the enigmatic traveler that roams the northern Chevkri lands.

Alpharius Arriving
The soul of Alpharius was formed at the same moment of the merging of Qeshbago and Umbria, but the soul was left without physical form until the rains fell upon the Holy Chevkri Empire, finally forming the body of Alpharius under a new moon. The merging of both body and spirit occurred on the eastern coast of Chevkri, at the sight of what later became Novifehervar. The young town was short lived however, a stepping stone on the way to truly becoming himself. The city was abandoned by Alpharius, the tie to a single spot being found to be undesirable and a liability, so he took to the nomadic life, roaming the lands from Maramhold to Russantia and sowing the seeds of ambition.

The transition from sedentary to nomadic freed Alpharius from the responsibilities of running a town, allowing him to focus more upon the state of the young H.C.E. government which was currently in disarray at the time. The nation was under the rule of Emperor Argosha of Meramhold, but the state was lacking in formal structure. This was the door in to high state affairs that Alpharius walked through, proposing a rudimentary code of laws and the idea of a separate court system, which was quickly refined with outside help, leading to the establishment of the High Court, of which Alpharius was placed in charge of as the high judge.

High Judge and Arbiter of Law
As high judge, Alpharius acted as the neutral arbiter of law during relatively calm times. The lack of legislature being passed by the newly reformed Chevkri Republic left Alpharius with plenty of energy to expend elsewhere, mostly for giving the new leader Ursus, being impressed by the legalistic efforts previously displayed and the ability to use language as a multi-faceted tool rather than a means to simply convey information and ideas, council on matters of dealing with foreign leaders, and forming arguments to use against foreign powers.

Alpharius in the role of high judge reigned until the 2nd half of the 2nd term of Ursus before stepping down, the other roles possessed by Alpharius growing in scale and the moral conflict between the different positions making retaining the seat of the high judge an unsound and immoral course of action.

Actions of the Hydra
Alpharius' deeds are many, with their ends unknown, both from the purposeful obfuscation regularly done by Alpharius, and due to the sometime contradictory nature of his actions. The end goal is both everchanging and seemingly nonexistent, this notion being reinforced by the occasional mention of 'thing are lining up with my plans' and the constant vagueness with his statements that occasionally conflict. The regular mention of visible records being false, and all things being true, even the lies, has made up the staple of the mindset of Alpharius. This has became the hallmark of Alpharius and is often pointed out by leaders within Chevkri.

Alpharius was a vocal proponent of the Chevkri-Montroig merger, despite being Chevkri first and only. Alpharius was a participant in the founding of the legislature that would merge the Uldarashi realms, but the merger never came to be. Alpharius' views on the course of events are classified.

Political instability in Alokhrad that had been attributed to Alpharius have been the focus of some legal actions in Uldarash. Alokhrad, placing blame on a coup that was instigated in their country on Alpharius, was allowed to demand twenty thousand in currency as reparations. This deal was altered by Alpharius due to not having such funds and 'never have nor will', and goes as following: Alpharius will pay half of his money to Gamerblox, and half of his iron ingots. The deal was accepted by Alokhrad at the insistence of Alpharius, who hastily negotiated the deal to explicitly not include solid numbers, something overlooked by the other party. The result was Alokhrad receiving 7 iron ingots, keeping to the letter of the deal. Alokhrad proceeded to complain vehemently during an Uldarashi council meeting, achieving nothing.

Alpharius remains to take part in state functions, though to what extent is unknown. What he is involved in is usually clear through the use of the hydra in a visual sense, and the use of hydras, truths, lies, deceit, and harrowing in nomenclature.

I am Alpharius, and this is my record.
