Describing himself as a "orthodox marxist", Auber has a clear anti-imperialist discourse and has repeatedly spoken against Adorian accession to the EU and NATO. In politics, he has actively fought for provincial autonomy and advocated for the right to bear Arms. 
Known for his love of guns, Auber started writting a popular section in the newspaper the Proletariat called "Auber's OnlyGuns", where he exposes some of his favourite guns, including some from his extensive personal collection of firearms and vehicles, like the famous and controversial MI-35M Soviet Multirole Helicopter. Auber also founded and developed his firearm company called Eastern Technical.
=== History ===
Nobody is certain of where Auber was born. The most commonly accepted story affirms Auber was the product of a Soviet experimental program to weaponize bears during the 80s located in Bukhara (Бухара), Uzbekistan. 
What is certain is that evidence has shown that Auber served in the Directorate "A" of the FSB Special Purpose Center (Russian: Спецназ ФСБ "Альфа") of the Soviet Army during the Aghan-Soviet War, and lived peacefully in Leningrad until 1993, where he fled to Adoria following the 1993 Russian constitutional crisis.
He since then worked in the contruction business until he founded Eastern Technical in Synaro City (Briefly called Aubergrad), which has since then explanded to a important contruction firm and arms manufacturer. Since his arrival in Adoria, Auber has been active in a few parties and has shared his leftist sentiment and pro-gun ideals.
===Political Carrer===
Auber became a Member of the National Assembly on the 4th of February 2021 for the Adorian Worker's Party and has since served for multiple terms. He also served as Minister of Interior & Homeland Security, Minister of Defense and Secretary of Defense and went on a break Auber attacked Fort Patton, the United States base in Adoria.
On May the 8th 2023, Auber became a Member of the National Assembly again under the Peoples' Republican Party. He became Secretary of Defense in the 99th Cabinet under President Earthly. His work focused heavily on restoring the Adorian Armed Force's operability and update the equipment of all branches of the Armed Forces. He served for a total of 5 terms until he retired as a Marshal of the Army.
===5th Governor of Synaro===
Auber was elected on the 2nd of February 2021 as the 5th Governor of Synaro. Serving for 5 consecutive terms as Governor, Auber is one of the longest serving Governors in Adoria's History. He has had a few lieutenant governors, including: Meow Zedong, MapleSpace and cbass.
Auber is responsible for a significant part of Synaro's legislation such as the creation of the provincial departments, and has most notably pushed for the Synaro International Airport and the Synaro Railway Network, as well as a multitude of Social and Pro-Worker's bills.
===Adorian Workers' Party===
Auber was been elected as Party Skeaker of the AWP on the 1st of February 2021. He then became Party Whip on the 16th of February and later Deputy Party Leader on the 21th of February, were he was reelected twice. He since assumed leadership of the AWP on the 23rd of March 2021 following Wheatherboy's resignation.
He is most notably recognised in the party for writing the Party Manifesto, approved on the 3rd of February of 2021.
===The Mi-35M Helicopter incident===
On the 27th of March 2021, Auber became the first firearms importer by strucking a deal with the Republic of Uzbekistan for the purchase of one Mi-35M soviet multirole Helicopter. The Helicopter, equiped with a Yakushev-Borzov YakB-12,7 mm four-barrel rotary cannon, became the object of controversy when the United States expressed their concerns. The message stated:
"We are very concerned with the recent endeavor of Adoria to buy an attack helicopter from Uzbekistan. As a consequence, to this purchase, we will be cutting part of the funds that we are paying Adoria as compensation for occupying one of their islands." - United States representative.
The discutions between Auber and the 47th Government of Adoria quickly soured up as the Ministry of Defense tried to confiscate the helicopter under US pressure on the 28th, while Auber refused give up his legally registered helicopter under what he defined as "yankee blackmail".
That same day, with tensions reaching an all-time high, the governement's DPM Frederick Gyldenløve I, with approval of the PM, enacted the Military Equipment Ownership Executive Order, banning the purchase and ownership of military vehicles, along with a ultimatum to Auber to give up his Helicopter. Auber refused and argued that such action was unconstitutional as Article 16 stated: "Regulations and limitations of this will be laid down by act of the National Assembly.", and presented a appeal to the Supreme Court along with a criminal lawsuit.
On the 29th of March, seemingly still in a deadlock, and with the mediation of the Minister of Defence RonaldRaygun, both parties finally agreed to a compromise, where Auber got to keep the Mi-35M helicopter for his personal collection, as well as getting compensated with 72 Million USD, in exchange for the disarmament of the Yakushev-Borzov canon and the signing of a legal document rendering the rearmament of that specific firearm illegal, marking the end of the Mi-35M Helicopter Incident.
=== The Fort Patton Incident ===
Shortly after the Mi-35M Helicopter Incident, Auber finished his term as Minister of Defense and mostly retired from National Politics. He opposed Adoria joining the NATO alliance and after public condemnation, decided to attack Fort Patton Military Base, home of the United States military presence in Adoria in a show of defiance and protest. 
The aftermath of the attack appeared two-sided: On one side, public condemnation rose from public figures both nationally and internationally, even causing a minor Internatinal Crisis between Adoria and the United States. On the other side, Auber's actions reflected the profound crisis in Adoria over joining NATO, and many supported his stance, if not his actions, on the matter.
=== People’s Republican Party ===
After joining back Adoria, Auber became a Member of the National Assembly for the Peoples' Republican Party on May the 8th 2023. He settled back in his family home in Synaro city. 
During this time, Auber developed contacts in the Adorian Right who shared a common despise of the Social Democratic Party, and became Secretary of Defense during the 99th Cabinet.
=== Ecuador hostage crisis & Operation Mountain Guardian ===
On 25 January 2024, it became known that a group of 66 Adorian students and teachers studying the local flora and fauna of Ecuador were captured by local cartel militants, who took them to an unknown location and demanded a ransom from the Adorian government. To complicate the situation, there was no Adoria embassy in Ecuador.
On January 30, the Adoria government, represented by Defense Minister Auber, conducted a secret military operation codenamed Mountain Guardian. After receiving the green light from the Ecuadorian government, Adorian ground and air forces moved to the building where local police discovered the hostages. The cartel members were quickly caught off guard and consequently were unable to provide any meaningful defense, as the few who resisted were easily eliminated by the superior professional military forces.
The vast majority of poorly equipped criminals chose to surrender at the sight of military helicopters and airplanes. Of the approximately 42 cartel members present in the area, four were killed, six fled the area, and 32 were captured and handed over to Ecuadorian police. Although the plan was risky due to its violent nature, the plan was considered a success with all 66 hostages rescued and taken out of Ecuador.
