Anton De Manteau

Anton Marc De Manteau is a former forge apprentice living in the town of Madeliene located inside the Lorentish Empire. Anton was the former Portmaster of a small port called Port Colossus. He remained the head before it was damaged and eventually decommissioned. 
== Backstory ==
Anton's Father, Stenn De Manteau, made his impact on the country by blacksmithing before entering the world of politics. Anton, following in his father’s footsteps became a forge apprentice. Anton was born in Ozenburg to Stenn and Amile De Manteau. Shortly after his birth the family moved to Lumaire. Where his father slowly moved his way up the ladder until becoming the Lord of Lumaire. Where his family became a minor nobility. After some unfortunate events, listed here: https://docs.google.com/document/d/18euP-Il6mKEB8lEN1Zyiel4y3HaaVU1U01sb3Ad91qE/edit?usp=sharing Anton died. However. His father, a master necromancer, resurrected Anton. 
Following his resurrection, Anton worked under his father for many months until, due to his declining health, Stenn seeded control of the Manteau Family to his brother, Charles. Due to this change, Anton took a leave of absence from his forge responsibilities and traveled the world as a nomad for several months. Visiting every side of the world in search of purpose. He has recently made a return to the great nation and vowed to restore the legacy he left behind and to make further attempts to progress the Lorentish Empire. He has recently taken back up his blacksmiting duties, and on top of that, was placed on the Eccliptic Council. A council that gained power after Anton's uncle, Charles attempted to betray the country by seceding to form the Kingdom of Regalia. After Charles's betrayal, Stenn denounced him and a short civil war broke out amongst the family. In the end, loyalist Manteau family members, backed by Stenn won out and Anton was named the head of the family. Despite his newfound responsibilities, Anton remains haunted by his resurrection and the dark magic that his father used to bring him back to life. He often wonders about the consequences of such an act and whether his return to the world of the living was truly meant to be. Nonetheless, he continues to use his skills and influence to better the world around him, hoping to one day find the answers to his lingering questions. 
== The Former Eccliptic Council ==
The Eccliptic Realm was once governed by a 5 man council, which was established after the Archdutchy, the previous ruling body, relinquished its power to them. The council was comprised of five individuals from different walks of life, each bringing their unique strengths and expertise to the table. Anton being one of them. The council ruled over the realm for a short time until Charles seized a central town of the realm and seceded from the empire to form the Kingdom of Regalia, a kingdom that was ultimately short lived. After the land was returned and seeing their presence being wiped away, the council decided to disband both the realm and the council. Wiping away the last governing bodies inside the non-vassal Lorentish territories. 
== Fleet Admiral ==
On the 29th of April 2023, the flagship of the Lorentish Jconian fleet, the Manteau class Galleon HLS St. Loraine, was officially deployed to the Madeliene port. And with it official creation of the Lorentish Joconian fleet. Of which Anton has been named Fleet Admiral. He plans on expanding the fleet to include two Braavos class frigates, two Floriason class Blockade runners, and possibly a sister ship to the St. Loraine. The deployment of the HLS St. Loraine marked a significant milestone in the Lorentish Joconian's naval history, signaling their entrance onto the global naval stage. The creation of the Lorentish Joconian fleet will not only boost the country's national security but also provide new avenues for economic growth and development.
