Felonius Tekin

State Portrait of President Tekin, 2263

**Felonius Tekin** (2199-2286) was a British-born Franco-Turkish politician who has served as the **President** of the Nationalist Republic of France between 2243 and 2285. He was the youngest legitimate son of former Neo-European leader Ekrim Tekin.

## Early Life

Felonius was born to leader of Neo-Europe, Ekrim Tekin, and his third wife **Camille Marlay** in 2199, as Marlay's third child and Tekin's 8th legitimate. He looked up to his father, although he was not very involved in his upbringing.

His mother taught him French from a young age, and despite his father's nationality, he never developed a large proficiency in Turkish.

## Domolaki Invasion

### Death

Felonius was betrayed and killed by Digzornik soon after they supposedly agreed an alliance. Soon after, this led to the near-anhialation of French Guyana and its collapse as a functioning state.

## Personal Life

Felonius Tekin was brought up as an atheist but later converted to the pro-Tekin *Tarak* branch of Islam in 2248, although it is unknown whether this was something he genuinely believed, or simply announced to gather support from Tekinite movements. He would later drop his Pro-Tekin stances as he distanced himself from the clone of his father.

### Marriages

Felonius has married nine times so far:

* To the Briton **Clara Sanderson** (2201-2230), with the marriage lasting from 2224 until 2229, ending in a messy divorce. She was found dead under mysterious circumstances less than a year later, with many suspecting Tekin ordered her killed.
* To the Indian **Benazir Mohindra** (2213-2241), being married from 2230 until her suicide. When Felonius fled to French Guyana, he left her behind, possibly intentionally, and she killed herself before she was uncovered by the authorities.
* To the Frenchwoman **Catherine Marlay,** (2211-present) his first cousin, from 2241 until 2243, when she broke the marriage off after discovering Felonius was having an affair.
* To the French Guyanese woman **Clementine Favereau** (2232-2251), from 2246 until her death. Felonius ordered her executed when she gave him no children, despite his own infertility being the problem. Being thirteen when they married, Felonius had a special ammendment brought through that exclusively permitted him from having wives as young as nine and exempting him from any criminal behaviour.
* Another French Guyanese woman, **Letizia Sagdieu** (born 2239), married from 2251 to his death.
* Also French Guyanese, **Oceane Bekiel** (born 2243), married from 2254 to his death (thus being the start of Felonius' polygamy).
* **Raine Ennuie** (born 2249). married from 2262 until his death.
* **Justine Maniere** (born 2254), from 2269 until his death.
* **Vivienne Somme** (born 2239), from 2269 to his death.

### Children

In large contrast to his father, Felonius had issues with his reproductive organs that made him naturally sterile. Still, the French-Guyanese scientists attempted to circumvent these issues through scientific methods, including a complex form of artificial insemination, in which Felonius' DNA was transferred into an artificial gamete and inserted into his wife's egg. Many were not successful, though one was, producing a son, **Maximilien** (born 2264), who was carried by Raine. Other children were born before him, but were quite disfigured and were disliked by Tekin. They were either euthanized or used for ruther experimentation. In addition, he has several altered clones treated further as children: Charles (born 2249), Emmanuel (born 2252) and Dschinghis (born 2254).
