Fennec

Fennec is a Discordian statesman, politician, and Fifteenth President of the Fifteenth Republic. Today, he remains as a senior statesman and administrator within the Republic, and a critical figure in progressive/left-wing politics within the Republic. 
Known as a popular reformer, Fennec helped build the foundations of the New Discordian golden era, and built a new Pax Discordia with capable staffers and firm compromise, building a more stable and compassionate Discordian State which lasts to this day.
== The Activity Revolution ==
Fennec joined in the 15th RoD. He joined with a close group of friends and created the Discordian Technocratic party to help bring back activity to the dead server. Noticing the incredible lack of activity and a competent government, he began campaigning on the basis of staff reform, activity, member growth, and most of all economic reform. 
Fennec combatted established opponents through the use of presidential debates and aggressive campaigning - swaying the younger new generation of RoD members into action against the old guard - to create a better, uncorrupt, and active RoD. 
Emerging victorious in the Presidential Election against Commie Jesus by a narrow margin - with running mate Alexbird and continued on to be the first president of the RoD activity revolution.
== Presidency ==
Once Fennec became president, he soon realized he’d be making a one-man stand against the old guard and admin team. Undeterred, he continued to push his legislative agenda, in which he passed things such as The Bump Act, which was a reward system that gave money to those who bumped the server and invited new members, and re-established the House of Representatives, which was abolished in the early 15th RoD by President Jesus. 
The primary goals of Fennec’s presidency aside from getting RoD’s message count back up was to pass a complete reform of the economic system, which after 3 days was published to the senate table. Fennec didn’t rely on executive orders and worked mostly with the Senate to pass legislation, to avoid abuses of power. RoD’s activity had steadily risen throughout his presidency, and finally, a breath of life was back in the Capitol of RoD. 
Throughout this time, administrators and old guard hardliners had been aggressively resisting all the changes made by the newcomer, culminating in a coup attempt on October 1st (See October 1st article). At this point in time, he had completely given up on RoD, with massive riots in the Capital against the tides of change and activity. He soon resigned, after being accused of impeachable offenses after declaring martial law to maintain stability in the server. 
This became the October 1st crisis. Despite his resignation, he reluctantly returned to the Presidency as the Admins forced him to maintain stability. Afterward, he became inactive and demoralized, later creating the foundations for the modern House of Representatives and doing what he could while on a tight admin leash. Although he ended his presidency peacefully and without the energy and sweeping reforms of his early campaign and presidency, his leadership lead to the renewed activity and anti-corruption movement in rod, culminating in the activity present today.
== Raven Era ==
After Fennec’s presidency, he moved on to be a party leader within the newly formed progressive party, and a member of the newly established House of Representatives.
During this time, he vigilantly continued the fight against corruption and for political fairness and toe the line of the progressive party. However, due to an internal conflict over the House of Representatives, a fracture in the progressive party, and the decline of Raven's presidency, he left the party, to remain independent.
== Secretary of State ==
Persuing an interest in foreign relations, Fennec became the Secretary of State under President Visher, in which position he became one of the most powerful men of RoD, and became one of its saving graces, on the foreign field. He worked with X\___/X (the Amullian and presidential candidate against Visher) to empower the Secretary of State over the now-defunct Sovereign Representative and formed the Department of State. 
He then showed his diplomatic prowess by helping RoD avoid a nuclear war with Krameria during a standoff set off by a rogue admin. He brought both nations to heel and established peaceful relations with the long-standing enemy of krameria, turning them into a rod ally. From here, he brokered relations with reluctant nations and repaired RoD’s broken foreign policy by reforming RoD into a non-expansionist democracy, instead of focusing on mutual benefit rather than impulsive wars. 
He briefly resigned to protest Visher’s pardoning of the rouge admin, only to return after Visher made a mess of relations with the Authority by preemptively declaring war, then signing a peace immediately after, Fennec stepped in to clean up the mess he made. Fennec declared that he‘d no longer follow the orders and agenda of the president, and instead went about creating his own Bismarckian vision of a new Pax Discordia, a massive NATO type alliance with RoD at the head, to create exponential mutual growth, and establish RoD as the most powerful nation on the foreign stage.
He went back to Krameria, which was locked in Civil strife due to a new Sith dictatorial party, and launched a RoD sponsored coup, run by the state department, to restore stability and activity to RoD. After the success of the coup, Fennec was on the precipice of forming the alliance, with approval from Kramerian representatives, and a mutual defense treaty signed with the USSR and the Federalist Republic, with negotiations and foreign relations spreading wider in preparations for the establishment of the alliance. All this culminated in Fennec single-handedly controlling all of RoD's foreign relations, and having a strong say in internal affairs.
That is until Visher declared his new empire - attempting a coup, and ruined Fennec’s ambitions through internal strife, and driving its newfound allies away from the instability inside RoD. After Visher, he resigned as Secretary of State, unwilling to waste efforts again into an endeavor that the RoD president and public may ruin again. This is when he returned to a quiet life of being an admin. He has refused to re-enter politics for the time being, and now spends his days talking in the Capital, helping with Admin affairs, and arguing with other admins who are convinced he is mad gay, that he is definitely Straight and "150% a top" but really isn't fooling anybody in that respect.
== Second Presidency and the New Discordian Peace ==
Any other Discordian could have, and certainly would have ended it there. President, Secretary of State, Admin - Fennec had been all of these prestigious offices, and a retirement from the Republic here would have already made him a significant figure in the eyes of future Discordians. This, however, was not enough for Fennec. Unsatisfied with the work he had done as President, he sought out on a new mission. His flurry of activity lead to a new Presidential Campaign - one to build a new foundation, for a New Discordia. 
Fennec won the election in a predictable landslide. With the support of most major figures and parties, Fennec united Discordia in a valiant attempt to launch and propel ROD into a new golden age. Passing economic, activity, and administrative reform, while compromising with a CUP congress, Fennec managed to pass the majority of his goals in a mere one term as President. Following his term, he remained one of the most illustrious statesmen in the Republic, but was forced into exile during the violence of the February Crisis. 
However, his return to ROD in late February saw him become a Owner of the Republic, and for him to slowly return to activity in the Republic. His actions, once opposed by the administration, have lead to his appointment to Owner, and as a member of the new Triumvirate, he continues to ensure Discordian peace and stability.
== Departure ==
Fennec made his exit from the community on the morning of March 26th. He is remembered as a competent Discordian owner, and his presence is missed in the Republic.
