Wardaddy

"'Ideals are Peaceful, History is Violent' - Wardaddy"

Wardaddy
Wardaddy, whose real name is Äscher "Wardaddy" Luon God-Fjell, is the current King of Majulah, alongside King Micc of Majulah.

The nickname "Wardaddy" supposedly comes from Äscher's love for warfare, often finding himself partaking in duels and serving as a commander in several wars.

Other nicknames given to Wardaddy would be "The Lion of the North", in regards to his victory over Aureus during the battle for CoAC, and the combined influence he carried in warfare and politics in the North East of Eldham.

Birth Origins
Wardaddy's birthplace is unknown, but what is known about his origins is that his father Wolfgang God-Fjell, a royal member of the House of God-Fjell in the Kingdom of Irulan, had an encounter with a woman during an expedition across Eldham. Not much is known about Wardaddy's birth mother, some speculate how much of an impact she had on Wardaddy as he grew up but some sources indicate that she could have been a family member of the Royal Ellysian house of Ellas.

Childhood
According to some sources and Wardaddy himself, he was a very active child. He could never sit in one place and would always find something to do and was according to some sources, very gregarious. Growing up, he got more and more intrigued in the art of combat and strategy and often dueled against his friends with wooden sticks and played many strategy games. He also led a small raid on an apple orchard with his friends and got into trouble a few times.

Foundation of the three explorers
Growing up, though Wardaddy had a lot of friends, he was close with only 2 of them, ItzKaipple and Micc. The three friends often spent a lot of time together, discussing about the possibilities of life outside of the little town they were living in. All three were very ambitious individuals and wanted to leave their town in search of something more. Wardaddy knew the identify of his birth father and wanted to find out more about him and ItzKaipple and Micc wanted to establish a merchant company in hopes of great riches and a lavish style of living.

It was there that they decided to travel to Eldham. They had boarded a ship which was set to travel to Nathria, which at the time was a colony of the nation of Grandia, at the time being led by Archduke Relmont, and were hoping to establish a trading post and live out their lives as simple merchants who would one day return to their little town and spread the wealth among the people. Soon after their arrival, the three explorers had spoken to Archduke Relmont and after some discussion, Relmont had granted them citizenship and ownership of the abandoned town of Higatoshi, with hopes of transforming it into a massive town and trading center. The three friends immediately got to work, with Micc becoming the Mayor of Higatoshi, now known as Majulah, with ItzKaipple and Wardaddy becoming co-leaders alongside him.

Exploring Eldham
With Mayor Micc now spearheading the revival of Higatoshi, Wardaddy found himself in a good position to set out and explore Eldham and bring back information for Micc so they can appropriately adjust to the environment and better understand the geopolitics of the area they were in. It was during these expeditions in which he wanted to find his way to the Kingdom of Irulan to find and meet his birth father, Wolfgang.

Notable encounters - Sandy
It was during his expeditions in Rodinnbrok where Wardaddy had met Sandy, who at the time was the High Jarl of Rodinnbrok. Sandy had told Wardaddy about the whereabouts of a great katana, and Wardaddy the ever loving combat enthusiast was ecstatic over the idea of a legendary sword that was waiting for someone to claim it. They agreed to meet at [Redacted] to exchange the location of the katana, for a price.

Ambushed by Bandits - Tylics
While waiting at a location to meet with Sandy at [Redacted], Wardaddy was ambushed by notorious bandit Tylics and had lost the fight. His riches and possessions all stolen. Wardaddy had sworn to get revenge over the ambush and over losing his precious lost possessions. After hearing about the news of the ambush, Sandy had given the location of the katana to Wardaddy for free and informed him about the locations that Tylics was known to frequently visit.

After some debate with his close friends, Wardaddy, Micc and ItzKaipple began hunting Tylics and planned to set up an ambush, frequenting the locations he was known to hang around the most. Then, on one fateful night, Tylics finally showed up at the location and the trap had been set. Wardaddy and his friends ambushed him and won, taking their revenge by getting his possessions back from the bandit and stealing whatever else the bandit had on him.

Wardaddy was particularly taken aback by the amount of riches Tylics was carrying on him and some say that the astonishment of loot is what drove Wardaddy to become a bandit in the first place, though some sources don't confirm this theory.

Notable Encounters - Umbra Warlords, K3ksuke
It was during their hunt of Tylics that the warlords of the Umbra Empire, K3ksuke and Kemono, which has now been dissolved, noticed the combat ability of Wardaddy. They immediately got into contact with each other and together went ahead to form a Bandit hunting group which lasted for about a month before it got dissolved for unknown reasons. The group was semi-successful, scoring a great number of kills on bandits and bringing in a fair amount of riches, but dissolved after the Warlords of the Umbra simply disappeared without a trace.

Notable Encounters - New Yoake, Lathien
One day, ItzKaipple had let Wardaddy know about a famous blacksmith in New Yoake which he had befriended. Wardaddy was instantly intrigued and decided to follow ItzKaipple along on a trip to commission weapons from the blacksmith. Once there, Wardaddy and Lathien got along nicely, they became acquainted with one another and Wardaddy became a frequent customer.

Journey to Irulan - Dvusi, Cornelius and Lurch.
One of Wardaddy's goals was to meet his birth father Wolfgang, unbeknownst to him, Wolfgang, though being a member of the Royal House of God-Fjell based in Irulan, was actually leading the nation of Merkonis. Realizing this, Wardaddy set his next destination to Merkonis. However, he took to the time to meet the King at the time, Dvusi, who was Wardaddy's grandfather. It was also during this expedition where Wardaddy had also met with his uncle Cornelius, and Lurch, one of his great friends.

Journey to Merkonis - Wolfgang, ErrorL.
After finally hearing about the whereabouts of his father, Wardaddy set sail and finally arrived at the nation of Merkonis. It was there where he met his father Wolfgang, their reunion was thorough and not a lot of emotions were displayed from either party, they were happy to have finally met each other and Wolfgang was somewhat excited and proud to see how Wardaddy had turned out. Wanting to have his son around him, Wolfgang made Wardaddy the General of the army in Merkonis and Wardaddy had gladly accepted this position. It was also during this trip where Wardaddy had met and befriended ErrorL who at the time was also a General of the army in Merkonis and a well-known mercenary.

''It was during one of their discussions that Wolfgang had revealed to Wardaddy how he met his mother and was unaware of the pregnancy. However, he had no doubt in his mind that Wardaddy was his son due to the similarities they both had, both genetically and personality wise.''

Nathrian Succession from Grandia and Banditry
After Archduke Relmont decided to step down as ruler of Grandia, his successor Archduke Voidfish took over and became ruler of Grandia.

It was at this point when the populous were feeling neglected by the rulers of Grandia, not because of purposeful neglect but because they simply had too much on their plate and therefore the populous of Nathria felt that they weren't that big of a priority. With Micc having worked his way up from Mayor of Majulah to Governor of Nathria, he and the remaining citizens in Nathria sent a declaration of independence from Grandia which Voidfish approved in hopes of maintaining good relations with the former colony. Wardaddy and Voidfish would go on to have a great friendship, frequently spoke about swords and blades alike, and supported each other's nation's and tomfoolery as time went on.

Merge and Banditry
After the succession from Grandia, King Micc and the rest of the council agreed to conduct a merge with Yuvaria and form Yunria with King Ashey as the sole ruler of Yunria. Wardaddy realized that Nathria couldn't completely be reliant on trade to prosper economically and after briefly considering the future for himself and his town, Wardaddy decided to become a bandit in order to support his fellow citizens. He decided to find the legendary Katana that Sandy had told him about and use it on his journey as a Bandit.

About the Katana
Kogarasu-Maru (小烏丸), was a blade forged by the Legendary Weaping Blacksmith, in the serene mountains of Rohkia, Rodinnbrok. The sword was unbelievably lightweight, almost as light as a feather. The Blade moved swiftly, was extremely sharp and had a particular glint in the sunlight. The markings "(小烏丸)" were carved into the side of the blade, marking its name eternally on the Katana. The handle was firm and had a good grip for any user who wielded it.

The Katana was derelict when originally found, but afterwards restored to its prime condition by the famous Blacksmith, Lathien.

Wardaddy found a lot of success using the Katana in his journey as a bandit. The Katana made combat and robbery easy work for Wardaddy. Even during wars, Wardaddy brought Kogarasu Maru and found loads of success, victory and glory with the great Katana. However, eventually after his luck ran out, Wardaddy would eventually lose in a skirmish during the Second Sand war, at the battle of Neukromore. Wardaddy would be cornered and outnumbered by the warrior Shojiro and CopTop and lost Kogarasu-Maru, barely escaping with his life.

Infamy
Wardaddy was known for his frequent robbery of the rich in Eldham. A lot of prominent players were targeted by Wardaddy during his bandit spree. It is estimated that Wardaddy made out with $4.5 million in Assets from his robberies and murder. However, he became known as the more "chill" bandits out there compared to the rest as Wardaddy frequently gave out some of his wealth to the poor and helped them out whenever he could, this made him a semi-popular figure in Eldham. It was also during this time where Wardaddy became friends with his former enemy, Tylics, after making peace with each other since they now both shared a common goal. Wardaddy also supported Tylic's nation Druk Yul and the both became good friends.

UNE Council Member
At the time of its revival, Wardaddy applied to become a member of the UNE and was approved. The UNE took Wardaddy on board due to his extensive knowledge on bandits and good connections with other bandits when bandits once ravaged Eldham. Wardaddy helped to establish the representatives system in the UNE, fixed up some of the loopholes and once the UNE was up and running, he subsequently became inactive in the UNE and stepped down from his duties to pursue external goals.

Notable Encounters - SwirlSpie
After noticing Wardaddy became a popular and well known bandit, a noble from Rodinnbrok, SwirlSpie had approached Wardaddy and offered friendship to which Wardaddy had agreed. SwirlSpie had hoped to gain protection from bandits while fishing in the Eldham's nether region, Wardaddy also offered to support their town, Lucky, to which SwirlSpie agreed. They both became great friends and after Swirl's disappearance, they gave Wardaddy part of their wealth and they both wished each other well before Swirl disappeared from Eldham completely, never to be seen again.

Notable Encounters - Peciti
During one of his robberies, Wardaddy had come across Peciti. However, after initially robbing him, Wardaddy returned his possessions to Peciti for the sole fact that Peciti was a humorous individual which Wardaddy appreciated. Wardaddy made sure to protect Peciti from other bandits and threats and jokingly embraced Peciti as his god for a brief period of time. The two went on to have a great friendship, and still do till this day.

Notable Encounters - Krys
Wardaddy was hanging out with Peciti in the Nether one day when he noticed Krys passing by on a boat. He halted her boat and kidnapped her and brought her to Peciti by the nether ponds and forced her to spend time with them.

Wardaddy had carried out a raid on A.W.E, disregarding their military might and renowned security force, Wardaddy went into the Capital town of Silbern and robbed the mayor Sir_Bohhy of his riches. This raid had made Wardaddy a wanted individual in the A.W.E, LaFonze, the head of security, had threatened Wardaddy to return the stolen riches to Sir_Bohhy, to which Wardaddy initially refused. However, after some reconsideration, Wardaddy agreed to compensate Sir_Bohhy and Silbern for the raid mainly due to the friendship which he had with Endo. Endo was one of the martials of the security force who was in charge of hunting down Wardaddy and eliminating him, however, due to mutual connections, the two got along well and the same scenario happened with LaFonze which eventually led to Wardaddy being pardoned for him crimes in the A.W.E.

This enraged Juni who stated that "It was a bold move to raid Uraka and especially rob a High Princess". Wardaddy found himself in a lot of trouble, with higher-ups in Uraka being enraged at him. However, after speaking to the Imperator Neo Aurelian, Wardaddy was pardoned and returned the possessions he stole and even gained citizenship in Uraka. Wardaddy became great friends with Neo and developed a semi-love-hate relationship with Juni.

Wardaddy had also raided the town of Gulligan and attempted to rob CupaCreeper, who was also a High Princess of Uraka (This raid occurred before Wardaddy was granted pardon). However, the raid ended up being unsuccessful as Cupa managed to barely evade Wardaddy. After speaking to each other for a while, they became friends and Wardaddy became a member of the town of Gulligan. Cupa Creeper ended up passing away in real life.

Wardaddy erected a memorial site dedicated to Cupa Creeper, located in Majulah. ''OOC: Wardaddy, here, I was not very close to Cupa, but she was fun to hang out with whenever I was around in Gulligan and I miss her a lot.
