Humbert III de Seyssel

Humbert III , Vicomte de Maurienne (Humbert Aimery Simon de Seyssel; born 3rd November 1624) was a Grandelumièrian nobleman and gardener. Referred as Maurienne or Le Bon Humbert by his Savoyard contemporaries, Humbert was born as the last male representant of the Seyssel-Maurienne branch of the de Seyssel lineage, one out of numerous ones still surviving to this day. Supposed to be a bringer of change within his diminishing line, Maurienne carries the enormous burden upon his shoulder to continue the passing of his name and blood by all means, as per his deceased father's last wishes to see his familial name spread until immemorial times.
Born within a well-prominent, tough remaining provincial, asristocratic Savoyard lineage of the Duché de Savoie. Humbert is descended from the de Seyssel by his father; Pierre Aimery de Seyssel and Southern-Occitanian-hailing Comtes de Foix-Candale (alledgely) by his devout mother; Louise de Nogaret de La Valette de Foix. He had been conditioned from his birth to integrate his familial interests at best within all of his decisions, to ensure of his lineage's sustainability over time, they are thoroughly analyzed by Humbert's conceptualization.
This trivial Savoyard aristocrat arrived recently at court as a permanent courtier, trough the sponsorship of Christine de Grandelumière, Duchesse douairière de Savoie , as a matter of integration within the higher circles of the Grandelumièrian realm and by providing a Savoyard presence within the domains of her nephew; Henri IV de Grandelumière. Aside from these official reasons of admittance within the famed court of the young Emperor, Humbert de Seyssel posses his personal reasons; seeing court not only as a tool of social rise but a potential way to find a decent bride within the families composing court in order to continue the sustainability of his lineage.
