Philip Rycon

Philip Peregrine Rycon, 14th Emperor of Luna (born 8 July 2641), also known by his reign name and ordinal on Luna as Philip VI, is a Lunar and Terran nobleman, politician, and statesman who was instrumental in the founding of the Republic and has served in several high offices of state. He was the Republic's inaugural Vice Chancellor from 2676 to 2688, managing much of the day-to-day functions of government. He resigned both positions to concentrate on his ceremonial Lunarian duties, though many have conjectured that it was the fallout from a personal dispute between Rycon and Chancellor Maximilian.
Rycon is highly respected among both old-guard National Humanists and the general public for his able administration of the galactic government and for his commitment to National Humanist ideals and putting them into practice. As Maximilian's deputy, he acted as the primary point of contact between the Supreme Chancellor and the executive administrative officials in both federal and planetary levels of organization.
