Riccardix Tyrrhenus Augusto

Riccardix Tyrrhenus Augusto known as Riccardix is a Tyrrhenus and he is part of the House Augustus, journaist writer of "Tengalii News" and Count of Kylasholmar inside the Tengala Iron Empire.

After his birth in a distant land, he decided to leave his hometown to arrive on the shores of Tengalii Ejzen Kajzerryk and begin a new adventure.

The little Riccardix
Riccardix was born on a hot summer day in a land far away from Rathnir. His parents are Arianna Tyrrhenus and Jacopo Augusto. Riccardix also has brothers: Alfonso and Giada, born after him. The first years of his life passed without too much difficulty. While he was at school he became very interested in news and journalism in general. He met many friends in these years but he did not do anything significant in that small village.

The goodbye to the family and the journey
Around the age of 17, Riccardix decided that the land was no longer hospitable and decided to leave. At that time, the group of Tyrrhenus was moving, but his mother decided to stay with his father. Our protagonist before the trip decided to go on an adventure with his cousin, Andrea Tyrrhenus Augusto. Together they discovered that in addition to having their paternal grandparents in common, they also had maternal great-great-grandparents in common. They were doubly related!

The two left together, but fate divided them. For many years, the two thought the other was dead. Riccardix ventured into jungles, deserts, stormy seas, he met many people but none ever seemed very welcoming. He knew that was not his place.One of the most exciting adventures he always wants to remember is when he went into the jungle. There were so many snakes and beasts of all kinds. The place was really horrible, but he had to survive. He did not drink for 36 hours and did not eat for 4 days, he was bitten by a snake but eventually came out alive.

After traveling for 7 whole years, Riccardix found a place that seemed so hospitable and beautiful. He met a kind man who introduced him to the Tengalii Ejzen Kajzerryk. He was in Maxstadt, but soon he was told that many other Tyrrhenus like him were in a city called Zama. When he arrived in that town with his small boat, his joy was enormous when he discovered that his cousin, Andrea, was there. He learned that he had become the Caesar of Zama and that their family had become a royal house: House Augustus. As the two by fate had been divided now they had been reunited. Riccardix knew this was his home.

The first days in the Tengalii Ejzen Kajzerryk
The first days were more or less difficult, there were many things to learn. But surely it was much more comfortable than being in the jungle with snakes. Shortly after his arrival, remembering his journalistic vocation, he founded "The Zama Post", a newspaper that talked about the events in the Tyrrhenus city of the empire. Then he started working hard to improve his city. He helped build various buildings. He knew it was the right thing to do. The Kajzer of Tengala, Gustav av Ejznhjart, needed a competent journalist to write in the national newspaper, Tengalii News. Riccardix tried to apply for this job; he was initially rejected but later became the writer of the official newspaper of the empire.

The meeting with Rosanna and the disappointment
On a street in Zama, Riccardix met a beautiful girl named Rosanna and fell in love with her. After several dates, the two seemed like lovebirds, like they were meant for each other. But when our Tyrrhenus asked for the nationality of the girl, he was shocked. She came from Posopolis, in Avertico. She could not stay in Zama, she had to run away to get home as soon as possible. So, Rosanna was forced to leave and leave Riccardix alone.

This episode triggered his anger. Now he hated Avertico more than ever. His plan was to organize a coup in Posopolis, to remove the current order and establish a vassal state of the T.E.K., he was organizing everything in detail, and after two years of planning, the day arrived.

The revolution and the death
July 23 was the day to begin the coup and return Avertico to the Kajzer. Riccardix hired mercenary groups from around the world and the news spread like wildfire. The march began from Vantros and in a day and a half the civil war raged in the center of Posopolis. On the second day of the war, the empire took advantage of the situation and began to invade Avertico. In the capital it was not possible to advance much. The front was blocked, but the reinforcements of the Tengala army were about to arrive. On the fifth day of the war, Posopolis was surrounded. Shots were heard at every minute, but just on July 29, when a surrender was very close, one of these struck Riccardix, the leader of the Revolution, right on the cheek. He died a few minutes later, when his beloved Rosanna joined him and saw him die in her arms. His last words, with Kajzer Gustav, Alex, the Kajzerin, Rosanna and many others watching him were: "Alang Lejbe Eda Tengalii Ejzen Kajzerryk!". Meanwhile, the government of Avertico surrendered.

The next night, Rosanna dreamt of an unspecified god who said she could turn her beloved back, even if the situation would return to the previous July 23. She discussed it a lot with Kajzerin, Kajzer and others. Eventually she decided to bring Riccardix back to life, like a spirit. Avertico became independent, but the two loved ones could now be together.

After the resurrection
After his resurrection, Riccardix decided to create a city called Nixopus in the west of Pahonja. However, Vostalik created Kylasholmar in the same place. Alex acted as a mediator and managed to get an agreement between the two. Kylash County would be ruled as a diarchy by the two counts, as it is today.
