NapoleonVII (Character)

### Overview

Napoleon VII woke up one day in a strange new world with no recollection of how he got there and no knowledge of this new world. He found a village and started getting to know the villagers there when tragedy struck. Following the aftermath of the Raid and Plague of the Crossroads Village, he began work building the start of his Empire.

### Relationships

#### Dave

David is a villager from the Crossroads Village who has been instrumental to the research and decoding of ancient languages and references found within ruins. He is the Head Librarian of the Ageless Empire.

On a more personal level, Dave seems to care a lot about Napoleon VII, and the feeling is mutual. They seem to have a complicated relationship that neither of them want to admit has any sort of romance to it. This is possibly due to the tragedy surrounding the death of Chad, Dave's ex.

#### Soup

Soup is a villager from the Crossroads Village. He once was an adventurer and briefly a fletcher, but Napoleon VII convinced him to use his knowledge as an adventurer to pursue a career as a librarian. He now works as an Assistant Librarian under Dave. He has imparted priceless wisdom to Napoleon VII regarding fighting technique, monster weaknesses, and interactions with other villages.

On a more personal level, Soup is rather reserved. He doesn't seem to enjoy talking about his adventuring days beyond giving objective tips and advice. He is also very somber around Napoleon VII, which has lead him to believe that he reminds Soup of someone from the past. It is speculated that a previous incarnation of Napoleon VII (Napoleon V) was his former adventuring and romantic partner.

#### Mason and Rain

Mason and Rain are married villagers from the Nitwit Village. While expanding the Ageless Empire, Napoleon VII realized he needed help, particularly with the construction of the wall. He sought out Mason for her skills as a Stone Mason, and agreed to bring Rain, her baker wife. He built them a new home and they moved to the Empire.

There haven't been many personal interactions between Napoleon VII and the couple, but they do seem friendly towards him and enjoy his occasional visits.

#### The Cleric

The Cleric is a villager from the Distant Village. They were the first cleric that Napoleon VII encountered in this world and have been a great source of information regarding the Nether and various mystical powers. In return, they have requested help for something that they will not elaborate much on.

The Cleric is not a very open person at all. They have not given Napoleon VII their name, nor do they talk about their personal life at all. This makes them seem untrustworthy, and Soup in particular neither trusts nor likes them.

#### Elliot

Elliot is a traveling trader. He periodically appears to offer trades with Napoleon VII, often in very unusual places. Though most of his wares are typically common and useless items, he has brought something worth researching further a few times. He is very annoying, especially given his untrained llamas.

#### Chad

Chad was a villager from the Crossroads Village. He worked as a Farmer until he succumbed to the Plague that swept through the village following the Raid. Napoleon was able to capture his zombie self and keep him somewhere safe away from the village. He is presumed dead by the surviving villagers.

While he was alive, Napoleon VII didn't have an outwardly hostile relationship with Chad, but there was a fair amount of tension between them due to Chad and Dave's relationship. It is speculated that Napoleon VII allowed Chad to be zombified out of jealousy.

#### Kerrek

Kerrek was a villager from the Crossroads Village. He worked as a Blacksmith until he succumbed to the Plague that swept through the village following the Raid. Napoleon VII was able to capture his zombie self and keep him safely contained in his basement. He is presumed dead by the surviving villagers.

While he was alive, Napoleon VII didn't have much of a relationship with Kerrek. They were on friendly terms, however, as Kerrek allowed Napoleon VII to stay in his Smithy until he was able to find more permanent lodgings.

#### Oleander and Belladonna

Oleander and Belladonna were two villagers found in the Igloo Basement. Belladonna was already a zombie when Napoleon VII discovered the underground research lab, but Oleander had seemingly been cured. After finding out as much information from him as possible and gathering all usable materials from the lab, Napoleon VII left. There was a breech in the connection between him and the gods, leaving them unable to see exactly what happened immediately prior to his departure. It is speculated that he killed Oleander and that he either killed Belladonna or left her to rot as a zombie.

#### Witches

These magic users seem to rely on potions for their abilities. They attack Napoleon VII on sight and are very powerful, leaving him to flee and attack from a distance.

#### Pillagers

These seemingly outcasted villagers are hostile to not only Napoleon VII, but to the villages and villagers too. They led the Raid against the Crossroads Village and are potentially the cause of the Plague that followed. He will typically try to give them a chance to leave before engaging, but will usually end up having to fight them.

#### Mobs

##### Piglins

The pig-like people of the Nether. Though there is a considerable language barrier, Napoleon VII has managed to establish trade with them. It isn't the most convenient thing, due to the lack of communication, and he often has to just take what he is given to avoid offending them. He has a special set of armor just to trade with them, as they highly value gold.

###### Zombie Piglins

Piglins that have been affected with the Plague. Unlike humans that have been affected, these beings seem to be very docile, but that doesn't stop the uninfected Piglins from being terrified of them. Napoleon does his best to avoid contact with them to prevent the spread of disease.

##### Endermen

Strange, tall creatures that seem to garble words at Napoleon VII. Sometimes he can almost understand their words, leading him to believe that it's not an entirely different language. They are mostly docile, but are provoked when you look them in the eye. Napoleon VII typically will avoid provoking them.

##### Others

Zombies, Spiders, Creepers, and Skeletons all attack him on sight. Even if they do not initiate the fight, Napoleon VII with kill them to avoid being taken by surprise when they inevitably do.

### Beliefs

He can hear the voices of the gods directly a few times each week. They come at him like a tidal wave, leaving him very little room to hear his own thoughts while they're around. Though he's not entirely sure he trusts all of their intentions, he has come around to the idea that they are most likely deities and that they do possess some knowledge and abilities that are just out of his reach.

Despite this belief, he still talks back to them and ignores many warnings and pieces of advice.

### Memories of Previous Lives

##### LeeSide

While searching for a location for a new mining town, Napoleon VII stumbled on the ruins of LeeSide. There, he unlocked some deep-seated memory of a previous life (presumed to be Napoleon V) where he had been sent to LeeSide by the Red Council to investigate the town's mining operation. While there, he was met by Souphian (Soup), an associate and friend that he knew well. The appearance of Souphian made him realize that the issue might be more serious than originally anticipated.

He snuck into various buildings for the investigation, including the mining storehouse. There, he found a large store of redstone and evidence that the town had been mining deeper than they should have been. From there, he and Souphian entered into the mines, talking about the possibility of the "monstrosity". While they thought it to be a silly consideration, they eventually found themselves before one in the deepslate cave.

From there, Napoleon VII came to, rushing back into his home in the Capital. He was disoriented, panicked, and had his pockets full of ancient debris.
