## Biography

Hauat was Born to McBabwe of Allium Panem and a mother whom he never met, as she died giving birth to him. His father homeschooled Hauat until age 14, when Hauat expressed his wish to travel Eldham to his father. As he was nearly finished with his education, Hauat was permitted to set out to Eastern Eldham to discover and learn.

Hauat traveled towards the east and the great empire of Uraka where he learned much about how great empires are made and how power is best to be kept. He also learned much about Eldhamite economics and mapping guilds. During his travels to Uraka, Hauat saw many great cites, both and learned about city administration and governance.

As Hauat came to the USSE, he was accompanied by a traveller he met in Uraka. Hauat studied Lo'Oi to communicate with USSE citizens and learned about Socialism as well as other political theories. He deepened his knowledge of city administration and familiarized himself with the event management. Hauat also engaged in boat racing, taking first place in a a small tournament.

### Arrrival to Etruia

As Hauat travelled through Eldham, he saw many cities but decided against settling down as none of them really appealed to him. This changed when he visited Etruia. On the town gates, sings stated: "Citizens Needed Expecially Builder [...] Contact Manu, Mayor of this City." Hauat approached a guard at the gates and asked them if he could meet with the mayor to join the city. The guard escorted Hauat to Manu who was working on one of his new buildings.

Hauat awkwardly asked Manu if he could join Etruia as a citizen which Manu granted, full of confidence. He provided Hauat with free housing in the city and permitted him to decorate the empty house. Despite settling down, he still traveled a lot without worrying about getting shelter because of his stable income and city home.

### Amarillian Civil War

Main article: Amarillian Civil War
During the Amarillian Civil War, Hauat initially sided with the Republican faction. After Soronaca won the Battle of Verdesburg and was proclaimed Imperilan by his soldiers, the Republican faction transformed into the Imperilians. In reaction to this change of direction, Hauat, McBabwe, Manu, Nunsplash and SSiTon split from the Imperilians and refounded the Republican faction. The reformed Republicans did not significantly influence the military development of the conflict as they did not participate in any notable battles during the civil war.

After a stalemate was reached during the late stages of the civil war, Hauat Joined the Military Junta, which was founded by Kawaii Kyani after ripped the constitution into pieces and declaring himself the King of Amarillo, initially instigating the conflict. Members of the Junta convinced Hauat to join them by offering him privileges in case of a Junta victory, which appeared likely at the time. Shortly after Hauat's desertion, the much smaller Republican faction merged with the Imperilians, in an attempt to destroy the Junta.

After the Imperilans' victory in the Battle of Puerto Amarillo, Hauat was taken prisoner while most supporters of the Junta fled to Mohadi. After Soronaca proposed a ceasefire to write a new constitution and offered amnesty for surrendering combatants, Junta loyalists surrendered peacefully. Hauat was one of the thirteen representatives of both sides who were send to agree on a new constitution of the now Constitutional Kingdom of Amarillo with Kawaii Kyani as its new King.

### Integration into the Drakaen Commonwealth

Hauat opposed Amarillo's integration into the Drakaen Commonwealth, as he feared Valreach, an influential founding state of the commonwealth, could spread its influence in Amarillo and eventually incorporate it. Throughout his life, Hauat continued to oppose Drakaen unity as well as the Nachtenreich, despite becoming Town Secretary of Mondragon in it.

### Political career

In the first election after the civil war, Hauat ran for the office of Prime Minister, promoting a social welfare and stable, peaceful expansion project for Amarillo. While losing the election, he was appointed Minister of Infrastructure and built a long road connecting Etruia with Alefpamohadi. During this term, he also ran for a parliamentary seat in the Isla Amencer region with promises similar to his campaign for Prime Minister.

Hauat became involved with Mondragon after his father introduced him to the Dmitri "Nunsplash" Umara, the Grand Duke of Takavia. Hauat advised the Grand Duke on the administration of Takavia and especially Mondragon. After the Grand Duke of Takavia left, Hauat became Town Secretary and governed both Mondragon and the region of Takavia.

Hauat opposed the decision of Mordaine, the nation to which Mondragon initially belonged, to join the Nachtenreich. Despite his fiercely anti-Drakaen views, he retained his offices in Takavia and Mondragon, citing his duty to watch over Takavia until the return of the Grand Duke.

### Walrus hunt and death

As Hauat heard of the tale of a Great White Walrus supposedly being the "Real Prize of the Frostbitten Sea", he built himself a ship and went hunting for this Great Prize with his son, Hugh and a few friends and fellow Mondragon citizens. His ship, the Shadow, was small but robust. As Hauat and his crew set out from Mondragon towards the Eastern Frostbitten sea, they tried to avoid tolling at Adlerlitz and Scylla so they Sailed through various swamp regions and saw many interesting sights.

After nearly two weeks of sailing, the Shadow reached the Frostbitten Sea. TheyLuckily spotted the gigantic White Walrus, which eyewitnesses estimated being about 30-50 meters long. The Shadow pursued the White Walrus, but considered abandoning the hunt after a Storm hit the Frostbitten sea. Ever resilient, Hauat decided to further pursue the Walrus and forced an attack. While multiple harpoons hit the Walrus, it appeared unharmed by the impact and continued its attempt to flee. After three more hours of pursuit, Hauat landed a lucky shot at the Waltus but was swept overboard by a wave hitting the Shadow. Since Hauat could not swim, he attempted to float over the water despite heavy swell.

Despite his struggles, the waves crashing upon him swept him further away from the ship. At that moment, the heavily injured White Walrus swam up to Hauat, probably scenting him and trying to take revenge for what he had done to it. Hauat wrestled the Walrus in the unruly giant waves of the Frostbitten Sea while the Shadow attempted to maneuver closer to rescue Hauat. As the ship drew near, they were only able to retrieve the corpses of the White and Hauat, the latter of which had drowned during the struggle.

Hauat was buried in Mondragon, in a small ceremony with only his friends and family members appearing at the service. Hauat's son Hugh took over the titles of Town Secretary of Mondragon, Secretary of the Grand Duchy of Takavia and Secretary of the Kingdom of Takavia as well as all of Hauat's personal possesions in Amarillo and the Nachtenreich.

## Family

Hauat always had good relations with his father, McBabwe, but never met his mother, although he was sure that she would have loved him. Throughout his life, Hauat likewise felt guilt about his mother dying in child bed while giving birth to him. When Hauat Lived in Mondragon, he met Esmarelda who he married after they had been in a relationship for three years. The upbringing of their son, Hugh of Allium Panem, was similar to that of Hauat, as he was homeschooled and later sent on a journey through Eldham.

## Religion

On his travels, Hauat met Elderaata, preaching on the streets his the teaching of the Children of the Black Rain Maiden. Hauat Grew interested in what he said, how he heard the prophecies of the maiden's death, suffering for the good of Eldham and death at the hands of the other gods that sought to usurp her power. Hauat joined the religion soon after the encounter and independently converted a temple from a long forgotten Religion to a Temple of the Black Rain Maiden, the First of its Kind.
