Biography
Xeroise first joined the Stoneworks Minecraft Server upon the initial release of Eldham, or New Rathnir as it was than called, never having had played on the Rathnir server. She immediately had joined the United Socialist States of Eldham, being an early member of the nation (a member of what is now called the Old Guards within the nation). She had swiftly rose through the ranks of the newly founded nation and was appointed to be the first Chair of the National Assembly by the nation's first President, Aboniert Ormnidus and later winning a position as Minister of Culture.

In lore, she was born in a village upon the isle of Kiurtrog to an Oxintoist Lo'Oix family. Early in her childhood her family was involved in the Sérotoix Civil War which had birthed the USSE which resulted in her gaining an intimate relation to politics on Eldham and being exposed to the socialist ideas of the UBSR. It was her knowledge of politics and warfare that had made her such an important thinker in the early USSE both in reality and in lore.

She had founded and created the city of Garkogorod with the intention of it being the capital city of the USSE which for the first few months of the nation's existence it had been. The city's progress would be constantly halted by a lack of monetary funds and actual construction workers and eventually it was abandoned in the Kunir War.

Early in her existence on the server she had been married to a person by the name of Baethor Ceresus whom lived in modern day Solsgaard. She had divorced him resulting the Divorce Trial Massacre of which she was one of the victims.

Not long after this, Aboniert Ormnidus had been banned (died in lore), resulting in the immediate promotion of Leo Belgicus to President of the USSE through the line of succession. Belgicus chose Ronango'O to be his Vice President at this time.

After becoming Vice President she would oversee the industrialization and beautification of cities in the USSE as well as assisting in military campaigns. She played a fundamental role in the Second Coalition-Ellysian War by drafting the plan used for the Garxeto Assault and also fighting in it, leading the boat ride from Garxeto into the heart of Ellysia from which the cities of Taernsby and Nordinbad would be attacked. She was also the one to author the Regnum Drakaes' Edict which divided the Ellysian Empire which forever changed the geopolitics of the region.

After the dissolution of the Ellysian Empire, she acted as the USSE's unofficial governor to the Third Administrative Zone of the ARS. During her time as governor she had removed any resemblance of Ellysian ownership from the zone and approved the establishment of the nations of Garxijos Yawos, Cognia, the CoAC, and Heli which would forever influence the future of the Northeast of Eldham for the foreseeable future and ultimately resulted in the formation of the Confederation of Garxijos.

The USSE at this point had enjoyed a period of relative peace which was quickly disrupted by disputes with Vanakunir over the city of Alicuna. The USSE had set the border at the river, of which Alicuna had been built atop and eventually expanded to the Southern side of the river which the USSE had sovereignty of. Appropriately, the USSE had demanded Alicuna do something to respect the border set by the USSE which they had promptly agreed to. Xeroise had been in charge of the diplomatic negotiations this entire time. This however has angered the Vanakunirian government which promptly went behind the USSE's back and claimed a huge chunk of Northern territory from their states of Achadia and Vanargard. She at this point had called upon the Anti-Radical Syndicate for their assistance in the matter to intimidate the Vanakunirian government into giving cessions and to back off from all out war. This failed however as the ARS took complete control of the military effort against Vanakunir and Xeroise stepped back as commander of the coalition front. Ultimately at the Battle of Gabeli Bay, there was devastating losses and a call to evacuate was given resulting in Xeroise packing her belongings and fleeing the city for Nizkaya on a horse named Ladoxol who would eventually be murdered by mercenaries outside Nizkaya.

At this point, Ronango'O was incredibly angry with the Vanakunirian and Anglunian annexation of land and decided that something had to be done as the government was on the verge of collapse and USSE had been shrunken down to a third of its original size. She promptly ran for President of the nation just days after Belgicus' term had ended. She won a resounding victory with just under 80% of the vote. Now President, she immediately reinstated reforms to the government and enforced loyalty to the government and put down efforts to leave the nation or take more land from the USSE. She immediately had paid off Anglunia $400,000 in order to get back the territorial lands of Kiurtrog and Croscograd and successfully rejuvenated the government. Because of these efforts, a period of history known as the "Great Humiliation" had been put to an end and the remainder of Xeroise's Presidency would be known as the Golden Era of the USSE.

Throughout the remainder of her Presidency she would pass several more reforms, abolishing political parties, and centralizing the government more and establishing a legal code to ensure anti-democratic policies would be prevented. She also first started writing several well known books on political theory and recounting the Kunir War. Eventually, towards the end of her Presidency, she had felt she had done enough as the USSE had essentially returned back to its normal size, its cities had expanded massively, and the nation was back in a state of peace, so she did not run again having faith in whoever would take her place to carry forth the torch of the Golden Era she had brought to the USSE.

After her Presidency, Quintus Solokov would take her place starting forth the Solokovian Era. She had resumed to being a prominent international justice lawyer being the prosecutor against Earth Havardr during his criminal trial and being the one to execute him. She had also started a jam company in the city of Kazkaya and commissioned the Transnational Road System. She still remains a common diplomat and scribe for the USSE and holds an official role as an Executive Advisor today.

She had also married Queen SnowTinttu of Navarna, becoming the Queen-Consort of the nation, however she is not technically a citizen of Navarna.

Xeroist Thought
Xeroist Thought, or Theory, is a predominate ideology of socialism and communism that has had influence throughout much of the USSE. While it does not outright denounce traditional communist thought, Xeroise felt that revolutions must be adaptive to their material conditions and therefore can only be truly done by the peasantry and working class of a nation. For this reason she was strongly against efforts of the USSE to be expansionist and intentionally overthrowing nearby nations, instead advocating for the people of such unjust and oppressive nations to overthrow them themselves and create a transitional socialist state or communist society through their own merit and ability as per what works best for them personally.

Another core part of Xeroist Thought was her ideas of class conflict, seeing the monarchies and bourgeois republics of Eldham as being a product of greed and perceived convenience instead of an ideal social hierarchy. She wrote on numerous occasions that the kings of Eldham have their positions that they do either through brute force, de-facto wealth, or exploitation of public consciousness and that this extended to the powers and systems of bourgeois democracies as well, pointing to the Confederation of Garxijos as an example as a military coup was conducted against the socialist government in what she referred to as an "...excellent display of acute force, an abysmal fear of democratic function that they would otherwise be unsuppressed in. Instead of making ones own voice heard, the leaders are overthrown to make way for a new government that can suppress dissenters and defeat the socialist project in order to fund the interests of petty investors, both abroad and domestically...".

She also maintained many hard opinions over the function and construct of socialist governments. While she felt they should always be mendable to situation and status of the working class, they should also be able to properly defeat external antirevolutionary influence and prevent tyrannical rule. These ideas were the backbones of many reformations under her Presidency of the USSE such as the Mumo'Oa Ko reforms.

It is often seen as a parallel to real world Marxism-Leninism given the banning of the real world political ideology from the server, so that there is an in-lore explanation for the ideas and concepts of the ideology and their application on Stoneworks."'Whispers run steadfast in the ears of the globe and it is precisely this. Social cooperation is indicative of the human experience yet we persist in everything that goes against it because we have been told that exploitation is natural. Such outlasting powers can only be equally crushed with revolutionary praxis.' -Xeroise Ronango'O, The Boot Trembles in the East, Book One: Prologue"
