Géza Fejérváry

== Early Life ==
Géza Fejérváry was born on May the 15th 1587 A.T.F in the city of Pola, he was raised by a family of minor nobles. The Fejérváry's were renowned for being the cities largest fur exporters. Although he grew up in comfortable conditions Géza's father would not pamper his son. From a young age Géza was trained by his father to be a competent warrior, a skilled fur trapper, and leader as his father planned for Géza to one day lead the Fejérváry Guard; a group of mercenaries who protected the families assets. In his later teenage years Géza would leave home unexpectedly, setting out to forge his own path. 
== Military Service in the Polanii Army ==
After leaving home Géza enlisted in the Polanii Army being attached to an army group commanded directly by the Polanii king himself Tyler Royston. Although the Kingdom of Pola decades prior relied on the feudal system to field its armies, Tyler Royston had begun massive military reforms starting with allowing commoners to enlist in a standing army. For the next few decades Géza loyally served The Kingdom of Pola slowly rising in the ranks. By 1625 A.T.F Géza held the rank of Colonel leading his own personal regiment known as "The 44th Polanii Regiment of Foot" unofficially known as "The Fejérváry Bears". Tyler Royston had personally taken notice to Géza particularly due to his speedy response in preventing Donnington raiding parties from passing through the border between The Kingdom of Pola and Donnington. Tyler tasked Géza Fejérváry with taking his regiment and rebuilding the city of Mordhau that had been destroyed years prior during The First Reichlandian Civil War. Tyler promised if Géza succeeded in doing this he would be placed as the Garrison commander, and in a years time gifted the title of "Lord" of the city. 
Géza would occupy the remains of the city on June the 4th 1626 A.T.F, and would begin an immediate reconstruction project that would take nearly five months to complete. Although the cities population was miniscule compared to what it previously was in only a matter of months he had rebuilt the outer walls and created several housing districts. By the start of The Second Reichlandian Civil War, Mordhau was a fully developed and self sustaining small town now under firm Polanii control. However Géza's success wouldn't last long, on January the 16th 1627 A.T.F a Chinikan Noble under the protection of Tyler Roystan named Honzo Makiyama sought refugee in the city shortly after acquiring The Book of Dalguul. Géza having little choice allowed the Chinikan to fortify himself in the city, two days later Alexander Clement arrived with a vast army and besieged the city. Over the following weeks Géza was unable to dispatch a message to Tyler requesting aid and after careful deliberation he opened communication with Alexander. Alexander demanded that Géza hand over both The Book of Dalguul and Honzo if he complied the city and all of its inhabitants would be spared. Géza knowing he was hopelessly outnumbered and running low on supplies accepted and on February the 2nd 1627 A.T.F the siege was lifted and Alexander's demands were met. 
== Later Life ==
Shortly after the siege Géza was removed from military service and retired to a quiet farmstead outside of the town of Axony where he raised a family. Using the funds he saved Géza would also open a small trading post where he would sell furs he acquired from trapping near the Glasgov River. Géza living far out in the frontier province of Axony would be sheltered from the fall of Pola and would survive to see The Reunification of Reichland. The last recorded mention of Géza was in 1651 A.T.F when travelers in the region reported a Veteran of Pola who had offered them shelter. It's said he exchanged war stories with them and provided a place for the travelers to stay for the night before they continued on.
