Striker Bon Annover

Striker Bon Annover is currently a Duke in the Askonian Empire and King of Greater Hannover. He resides in the town of Hannover, specifically living in the Oreo Castle. Striker is known as one of the top 100 richest people of Rathnir. He uses his sword skills and smooth talking to get what he wants.
== Origins ==
Striker Bon Annover was originally known as Striker von Hannover as he was born from Princess Bobo von Hannover and Jingo von Hannover. The Hannover Family was a strong family within the southern region of Andorn. Their political power was strengthened by the birth of their youngest son, Striker. Striker and his older brother, Bingo, would grow up in Hannover together, keeping a strong fraternal bond. After the death of his father, Jingo in the 2nd Crisis of Andorn, Striker would chose to remain a loyalist to Andornian leadership. Beyond this event, his true story would begin. 
== The Beginning of a New Life ==
While living within Hannover under the rule of Jingo, Striker was looked down upon by the family as he refused to live in the family castle. Instead he chose to live his days in a small cave under the streets of Hannover, to live a modest lifestyle. However, after the death of his father, Striker was brought to reason by Bingo. Bingo pleaded with Striker to leave his cave and come out into public life. It was his time to be a participating member of the family and come out of the shadows. After finally moving into the family castle, he would learn that he was missing out on a lot. He began working to better the family and encouraged his brother Bingo to take his career to the next level. Bingo would leave Hannover and move to Savras, where Striker would soon follow. Striker was given the title of "Duke of Hannover" and would rule the town in his brothers stead. While ruling Hannover, Striker grew bored, and would seek a new skill to master. Here he would train in the castle courtyard everyday to master swordsmanship. While he enjoyed the castle life, it was time for him to leave. 
=== Master of Walls ===
Striker would go to his brother Bingo, looking for things to do instead of ruling over Hannover. Bingo was in the midst of the renovation of the city of Savras, and this is where Striker would find his next calling. He was given the task of rebuilding the walls of the city of Savras, a dauting task. Striker was given the title of "Master of Walls" for his hard work and dedication. The walls were completed, and yet again Striker found himself bored of his life again, he needed new meaning. He would find this meaning with the Annover Family. 
== Annover Family ==
The Annover Family is an extension of the von Hannover family, and Striker's brother Bingo would need help rebuilding the family name. The Annover family was quickly built into Andorn society as a royal family with a lot of power. This family would grow with the help of Striker and his marriage. Striker used marriage to combine a historically important Andornian family in the Dubois Family. In the newly created city of Savras, Striker and Ian Dubois would get married to combine the two families, further strengthening the Annover Family. 
Directly after the wedding, King Swagolini would insult Princess Bobo, Striker's mother. This would cause for Striker to defend his families honor in what would later be the Siege of Fchtenwaldburg. Striker would play a key role in the siege, forcing King Swagolini to end his reign. 
A short week later, the Annovers would find themselves in a feud with the Casul family in the Andornian Province of Wivamovia. Striker would be one of the first men to charge into the Casul's fort. Here he would be named a hero of the battle and defender of the family. 
== The 3rd Andornian Crisis ==
After the creation of the Hannover family, the patriarch Bingo Bon Annover made moves to solidify and expand his power in Andorn. To do this he requested the city of Savras be handed over, this request was denied by Kaiser Lucius Von Savras. With the denial of his request Bingo along side his family would go on to start planning a grand coup of the Kaiser to gain ownership of Savras and Andorn as a whole. The planning phase of this coup would go on for many months and in that time Bingo would win over many in the Andorn government to his cause. After all preperations were complete the time would come for the Annovers to begin their coup, this coup would begin at the coronation of the new Kaiser Orange Von Savras. Striker Bon Annover would be alongside his brother Bingo and mother Bobo when the news came that the Empire of Bardonia would be assisting with the coup. With the assistance of Bardonia, the Nation of Andorn would quickly find itself under the control of the Annovers. However this control was short lived when the former Kaiser illegally gave all provinces independence, effectively dissolving the nation. The Annovers would never gain control of the Savras city claim and would be forced to retreat back into their province to begin a new.
== Subjugation of The Annovers and the Rise of the Askonian Empire ==
After the collapse of the Andorn Empire the Annovers found themselves ruling a province of their very own. This independence would be constantly under threat by the members of the former Andorn Empire, with many threats being levied towards them and their sovereignty. To protect themselves from their enemies the Annover family would seek the protection of a mighty empire, The Askonian Empire. In order to get this protection the Annovers sought to merge themselves with The Askonian Empire. However this merge needed to look as if the Annovers had been conquered in order to decieve their enemies and allow for no future repercussions. To accomplish this only the leaders of both the Annovers and Askonians were privy to the true goal of the war that was to come. 
After much discussion the time and date of the war was decided and the two armies readied themselves for war. Two fortnights after the decision the time had finally come. It was a cold and dreary morning when the crests of the Askonian Empire came into view south of Hannover. As the day progressed the hordes of goblins continued to pour into the streets of Hannover and at their head was the goblin master himself Gobo, from the walls of The Oreo Castle Striker Bon Annover looked upon the goblin master and could swear the beast was some nine feet tall clad in the bones of his fallen enemies and a wash with the blood of Annover citizens. In that split second the war seemed to cease and all Striker could see was Gobo and then Gobo looked up at Striker and smiled a smile of a warmonger who knew nothing but death and destruction. This sight gave Striker a new sense of purpose, Striker knew that even if it was the last thing he would do he would defeat Gobo for his family. Striker began to rally his fellow defenders to form one last counterattack, an attack that would hopefully sweep the invaders from their lands and bring about a victory for the Annovers. However this charge was never to be commanded by Striker as when he was rallying his men he was shot by a goblin archer straight through his leg. In Strikers stead a great and noble warrior of the Annover family would take his place. 
This warrior was Howertt De Medici, Howertt took the field with the force of a thousand men and rallied his fellow troops to charge the invaders. Many of goblins would fall to Howertt's blade, yet no matter how many goblins Howertt slayed their always seemed to be more that would take thier place. Howertt would finally be driven off the field when Gobo along with his horde wounded him badly, Howertt only survived by jumping into the river and letting the current take him east. With Howertts defeat the Annovers had lost and would be subjugated into the Askonian Empire. Striker would only come to know about the plot to subjugate the Annover province after the battle while he was recovering in his bed.
== The 4th Andornian Crisis and the Victory in Savras ==
The war over Savras was not over after the 3rd Andornian crisis. The Annover family continued to investigate and negotiate with outside nations to see about the possibility of acquiring Savras through means of diplomacy or if it came to it war. Thanks to the bad blood that was present between the current and former Kaisers of Andorn and the patriarch of the Annover family diplomacy quickly became an impossible option. With diplomacy taken off the table the Annovers alongside their allies began to draw up war plans. 
To ensure victory the Annover family began to increase their diplomatic ties with other nations in order to from alliances with them and to prevent those nations from helping Andorn. The final alliance that the Annover family entered into was The NDA( New Dorrasterrock Accords), this put the Annover family on the side of the most powerful nations in Rathnir, the most important of these nations was The Imperium. This was important as the Empire of Andorn was attempting to ally them in order to garner their help in a future war with Askonia. With the entrance into the NDA the Empire of Andorn was left alone and were unable to protect themselves from other nations. Without the protection of The Imperium, the Annovers alongside the Askonians declared war on the Empire of Andorn in order to claim the city of Savras. After this declaration of war Andorn quickly foled and sold the city to Norfthorn alongside the province of Areska for a measly 100,000. The leadership of Andorn then quickly fled the nation to seek refuge in separate nations. Norfthorn being allies with Askonia then traded the province of Savras and the city of Savras back to the Annovers and Askonians in exchange for the province of Areska.
Directly after this the rest of Andorn fractured into two separate nations. The first nation was comprised of Andorn loyalists, this mainly consisted of the province or Orilin. The second nation consisted of the sepratists who saw the only means of survival for Andorn to be to get rid of Savras and give it to the Annovers. This nation consists of the former provinces of Ardena, Kendalis, Falken-Obrithyll, and Krakovia. These provinces formed together to create the nation of Eskus. This nation would be the only true remnants of the Andorn Empire to survive the war and have since expressed friendly intentions to the Annovers and Askonians. In the end the claim of Savras was transferred back to its creators and the cycle of bloodshed could finally be allowed to end.
== The Passing of the Torch ==
For decades the Empire of Andorn ruled over Syltor, but with it's fracture came the possibility for other nations to take its place. This possibility would be realized when the nation of Eskus, the break off nation of Andorn, joined the Goblin Empire of Askonia. With the integration of Eskus, The Goblin Empire of Askonia now possessed 90% of all old Andornian land and with it their title as ruler of Syltor. History much like time is ever changing, nothing is ever set in stone and the Empire of Andron was no exception and after reigning for centuries it has finally fallen like all things into the chronicles of history. The same can be said about the Goblin Empire of Askonia, their history is not set in stone, no one knows what the future may hold, but Mog. So just like all that has come before ,and all that will come after. Only time will tell if the Goblin Empire of Askonia can rise above their predecessors or if they will join them in their fate,
