Myckul

== Bio ==
Myckul is a citizen of the Grand Duchy of the Rhine (No longer). He is a hard alcoholic, an excellent shot with a bow, and the slowest builder you have ever witnessed. He is a respected member of the Rhine and holds many friends in the southern nation of the Razuni Sultanate, Specifically those who were apart of the original Republic of Medena before it dissolved into a duchy state of the Sultanate. 
== Arrival ==
Myckul joined the Stoneworks Vanilla Worldbuilding Server sometime in early July of 2021. 
Myckul was a wandering traveler, exiled from lands far way, when he took a ship to be transported to the lands of Eldham. He arrived at spawn, and managed to scrape together the wood for a boat of which he used to travel southbound. Starving ravenously, and amazed at the developing world around him, he decided to scout about for nations willing to provide food and shelter. Eventually he arrived at the continent of Maccannar, on the land that once belonged to the long forgotten Bell Nation, west of the Razuni Sultanate. There he found an abandoned settlement, resembling a castle of sorts. And there he ran into his first friend in the world of Eldham, WhiteSheep. WhiteSheep had told him of the long past Bell Nation, and how he and a few others have begun founding a new nation, that of The Republic of Medena. 
== The Story of Medena ==
Myckul reveled in the ideas that the five founding fathers of Medena had espoused. He was immediately onboard, with a newfound dream to take part in the creation of a nation that was destined for greatness. Immediately, he noticed that no one was willing to build, so he took it upon himself to construct the infrastructure of the nation in collaboration with the founding fathers. He built much in the village of Maldeqem, and had been given the nickname "The Road Builder of Medena." A statue was constructed in his honor. Myckul, like most first-generation citizens of Medena, had a vision that the nation could have a structured and balanced government, with elected officials, such as a President and Parliament. Things were looking up, and a bout of pride struck the nation... until...
=== The First Election of Medena ===
As the village of Maldeqem grew, and the leaders of Medena's aspirations grew with it, they began planning the expansion of Medena into the capital of Kingsburg and the town of Sheepygrad. The Council of Government of the Founding Fathers agreed that it was time to start an election for the president of Medena. Along came the Republican Party and the Social Democrat Party of Medena, as well as a member of the SDPM, IcyGamer. One rushed election, one dissolution of the Republican party, and one political upheaval later - Medena elected President IcyGamer. He was often regarded by the citizens of Medena as a tyrant and power hungry president that did not once consider the opinion of his constituents, which led to the "Great Argument of Medena."
=== The Political Party Jumble ===
With the election of IcyGamer regarded as rushed and he himself tyrannical, he was forced to step down as President of Medena. From this, something miraculous happened. After much heated argument over the state of the nation, people began cooperating with each other again, and Medena had its brief time of peace as a new election was scheduled. *Emphasis on Brief.*
With IcyGamer's removal from presidency, there began the reformation of Medena to allow again for the formation of political parties. With this, Myckul formed the first post-IcyGamer political party: The Libertarian Party of Medena, which advocated for a capitalist democracy. The party was created with the goal of maximizing autonomy and individual freedom through non-interventionism, heavy emphasis on civil liberties, and governmental limitation. Soon after, other parties formed: Suprafluid created The Lehelium Party, which stood to unite the surrounding lands of Medena into an alliance that would make the nation a force to be reckoned with. Johnny_Boi, a founding father, created The Republican Party, which stood to create workers' unions and free trade. And the Voievodat Monarchist Party, which sought to unite Medena under a strong ruler, one of the original founding fathers: Username_DjM8 (See: The Medena Crisis)
With these parties came political strife, as each party nominated a candidate for president, and debates were scheduled to take place. These parties were the downfall of Medena. Suprafluid was incredibly toxic to the citizens of Medena, flaming other parties to secure members for his own. Username_DjM8 was denounced constantly by the citizens, as they would not stand to have their Republic tainted by the formation of a Monarchy. Johnny_Boi was pretty chill though, he was the only member of the Republican party because it was the newest and didn't have the time to involve itself in the politics as everything happened so fast. But the Libertarian party, with the fewest membership out of the Lehelium and Voievodat Monarchist party, didn't involve itself in pointless bickering and name-calling. Myckul, the leader of this party, was often thought of by the citizens of Medena as the voice of reason.
=== Things Fall Apart ===
In a move unexpected by everyone, the Monarchist party, with support of the Razuni, executed a coup that overthrew the provisional government of Medena. Medena became a province of the Razuni Sultanate, and Username_DjM8 became the Duke of Medena, betraying his founding fathers and fellow citizens. With this coup, many left, many stayed, and many ties were broken. Some kind-hearted folk, not wanting Myckul to leave, pleaded with him to stay, but alas he was determined to move onward. Some often say that Myckul's departure marked the start of Medena's inactivity and mass leaving. The capital of Medena, Maldeqem, is now a ghost town with only a couple of active citizens. 
Johnny_Boi, MemeRuler, IcyGamer, and Myckul left the nation. Johnny_Boi and MemeRuler set out to start a new nation, and IcyGamer joined. Myckul, not wanting to repeat history, declined the offer and set fourth on his own path. After, many more left Medena or Eldham altogether. And thus, Medena became a Duchy of the Razuni Sultanate, and Myckul, full of resentment for the Duke, became a drunken wanderer with a shattered vision.
