Viceroy James Burkwood

James Donald Burkwood is the current Viceroy of the Upper Colonies upon the western continent of Isaevi. Despite being born a commoner, Burkwood rose through the ranks of the Imperial Legion to Lieutenant where he caught the attention of the High Commander. After a short campaign at court he caught the eye of Princess Rachael, daughter of the late Eliza, Princess Imperial. Following a short romance the two married and James was accepted into the imperial family.
However, due to the Emperor not wishing to bestow a duchy, James was created His Imperial Highness, James, Viceroy of Eastern Isaevi. Therefore technically he holds a title that one day, he could be ordered to resign. It is debated what would occur if the Emperor did not extend another office as Princess Rachael's title does not bestow imperial status to her spouse.
