==Rathnir Character History==
=== Background ===
Severie was born in Lileanen to the Imperial family of Aspach. His father was Albrecht II, a ruler known for his policies of Exploration and small skirmishes with the neighboring tribes. Severie went on several of these expeditions into Plagos (Nordumar) as a child and saw many a foreign culture and land. On this trip he stumbled off with his grandfather, the Grand Emperor Ioannis. Ioannis and the young Severie journeyed with their retinue to a shrine and sat down upon the hill, praying to the deities of the Soleannen faith. At this time an Eclipse would begin, darkening the land around him bar the light given off by the shrine. At this time Severie recalls that the spirit of the Saint Cesare spoke to him, telling him he must reunite the heartlands. Upon his return, Severie would go on to study what he could on the faith and the history of his own people, as well as tactics although never becoming proficient in combat himself. Severie would take his own retinue at 17 to the southern lands of Sparwood exploring the tundra, while he was here his father was assassinated. Severie rushed home from the expedition and took the throne, from here he would go on to develop the city of Lileanen and its neighboring towns. Over time Severie got more and more ambitious, as he claimed land south of the city and began to plan many great city projects. 
=== Early Server History ===
At this time when he was in the Ignium (Nether), 3 armed men approached the Emperor wishing to attack, but were met with the Emperor fleeing to Lileanen instead of a fight. At this time it was learned that the men came from the Island off the coast named Tessel. The issue was largely left unignored until a notorious bandit was killed by the Emperor and his guard. At this confrontation the man was learned to be conspiring with the Tesselians (Turtlonians) and the Imperials planned a way to get rid of their neighbors. The Emperor held an Imperial diet with the conclusion that they must move or convert out of their cultist religion. Severie lead an invasion of the island and through the course of The Turtlonian Wars, he conquered it from the Tesselians. After this he began to greatly expand the Empire throughout northern Sparwood and southern Nieden, as well as being in many of the worlds major events as a participant or sometimes a cause. 
=== Trillium Era ===
He led the Imperials out of a state of decline brought out by being trapped by the Valdreach Imperial Republic and Yimmu-Audal. This was because he was a founding member of the Trillium alliance which shook Rathnir politically. He would then go on to fight against two coup attempts brought out by members of Yimmu-Audal, and integrated Aezenfjord into the Empire. This was due to the cold war between Dalatra and Severie which saw the nations compete for allies and influence. Dalatra would go on to lead men into Lileanen to kill a local gangster. This outraged the Emperor who was absent and saw it as a violation of his National Sovereignty. Because of this he would this he would finally go on to claim the throne of Yimmu-Audal. 
=== The Great War ===
The great war then lead his men to victory at the Battle of Cahuarn against Yimmu forces. After this he would go on to participate in the Battle of Urnu-Arrak and ended up annexing Yimmu-Audal. Following the victory he continued his being as a mystic for the Soleannan faith, helping erect the fortress monastery of Il-Kabulli. 
=== Pax Soleanna ===
During his time as Emperor he would become obsessed with ancient Niedene lore, leading to the research into ancient Soleannen magicks. Here it is said he began to act crazed, while the Archeren even claimed he began to complain about hearing a voice. He would set off to the southern reaches of the Empire with his Archeren Karde, starting an excavation and restoration of the ancient tomb of his ancestors Flammastahl. It is here he would begin to convene with a spirit in the temple he claimed was the god Ivoras. After receiving a burn after one meeting he began to wore the mask that he was known for in his late days, giving him the nickname the Faceless King by members in the Church. 
Lileanen would continue to grow at this time until there were even hospitals, cafes, an admiralty, amphitheater, and university were but some of the buildings housed in the great city. The temple at Flammastahl was restored fully and an Imperial Palace Complex was added so that the Emperor could bring guests to study the old ways. 
=== Ascension ===
He would go on to use his power from the god Ivoras to perform the Escharian Ascension, so that the people of his Empire wouldn't face another world war although this became obsolete as Niedea would form from those who didn't ascend would be embroiled in a similar conflict years later. 
== Legacy ==
=== Modern Legacy ===
Severie established Escharia as a state and lead it to glory as the premier Empire of the time, this led to the side effects of the Soleannan Spirits being formed and the conflict over the land now. The Aesperium is named after him. His most important legacy is that of being an Exalted Spirit in the Soleannen Religion, being a demigod as he has part of the soul of Ivoras. This has led to him becoming a more neutral figure that seeks chaos in order to protect his people and punish those who wish wrong on the Niedene or those who are Soleannen.
He is often considered among some of the most influential people in Rathnir's history with others like Chancellor Uni of Bardonia. His contributions to worldbuilding in Rathnir are prevalent due to his role in writing most of Soleannen Lore, along with the Niedene lore.
