## Biography

### Early life

ConDud was born to parents who had fled from Noxnorr to flee from a political scandal, he was raised in a small apartment in the old mining town of Burgamere in Sparwood. Where he studied Law and Political Sciences using books from other towns. He was taught Noxism but found no places to worship. His family eventually moved to Duragrad after the Great Cataclysm when ConDud was 15. Clan Dud would betroth ConDud to Karathin of Clan Kark to regain trust from the other Clans of the Order of the Working Clans of Helmia.

When ConDud was 19 years of age, Clan Kark decided against the Betrothal but never formally cancelled it. ConDud's Sister PesDud would go missing a few months later under suspicious circumstances, which were blamed on Duragrad Law Enforcement. This was due to PesDud's highly anti-communist ideals, which made Clan Dud suspect it was the UBSR trying to silence her.

When ConDud was 22, his brother GhurDud (At age 39) would move away to Alteniquia to serve as a mercenary. GhurDud sent frequent letters until after 4 years, his final letter stating "I find it no longer necessary to badger you all further, I have moved on and you should as well" disease would spread through his family, causing his elderly father and mother to die, and ConDud to suffer for a short period of time. Eventually he stumbled upon a couple traders from Certaria, and was happily let into the city.

### Life in Certaria

ConDud would move into the tavern of Certaria, eventually buying a cornerhouse and living alongside friend PatatoSald. He eventually founded the Direct Worker's Party alongside a few other Certarians, with plans to gain Certaria political power, and increase infrastructure in the south. During this time ConDud would spend his free time producing cheap low cost propoganda for the new party. He would find success and ConDud would be elected as a Commissar however would only serve one term after the collapse of the Direct Worker's Party.

ConDud left for a pilgrimage, but returned to see that Certaria had been burned and sacked by the hands. Homeless and without a job ConDud would spend his time on the streets of Duragrad and sometimes outside the walls attempting to pocket any change he would get.

### Life in Duragrad

* ConDud in Military Attire
* Depiction of ConDud at his desk. His desk was littered with hundreds of left letters, notes, and scrapped proclamations.
1/2In an attempt to revive Certarian culture ConDud would form the town of Seruhgrad, but other settlers would abandon the project leading to ConDud giving up on the project. ConDud would then move back to Duragrad where he would make a living as recruiter for the city, eventually leaving the job to mine, seeing it's Which he was able to make a lot of money fast after discovering the Boom Caves, a huge cave system spanning Duragrad, land surrounding it, parts of Dixie (Which had been explored prior) and many unexplored parts that go in almost every direction. He would join the Tovarishan military to join the war against Mezur's uprising. He would engage in taking the bridge. After this war ConDud would take a break from mining, as the Boom Caves were no longer making a large profit.

### Vice-Mayor of Duragrad

ConDud would run for Vice Mayor of Duragrad, his plans being to create events such as festivals to attract attention to Duragrad, therefore being more people wanting to join, creating more incentives for Recruiters, and expanding museums and libraries. He would win this election in a landslide. Early on he would discuss the formation of a mining company/guild in Duragrad, as well as investigate the goings on of the Roving Guild which had been allowed in, taking shelter in the Duragrad mines, much to ConDud's dislike.

He would be invited to a meeting discussing certain Duragrad citizens (Including the mayor) wanting reforms in the IAU, ConDud found the reasons for reform as not good reasons, so he would publicly denounce the wanted reforms. He would later open the Mining Company, allowing miners to do jobs for payment. Later people would organize an official protest, ConDud feared they would revolt, so he would make a public statement telling people to please stop these protests, the mayor of Duragrad would tell him he was wrong, and ConDud began to fear losing his position in office. The main fear of losing his position was the fact that Duragrad people may go out of control.

### Mayor of Duragrad

ConDud would run for Chief of La Confederación Nacional de Burgamere, but would lose against Mayor of Duragrad, Anonymus. Anonymus would resign as mayor when he was elected Chief, leaving ConDud as Mayor of Duragrad.

When the Confederation's constitution was released, ConDud openly criticized the aspect of the one party state. Revealing in his rants his anti-socialist beliefs. ConDud was met with no support from those around him, but he continued to hold his capitalist ideas. When elections rolled around he supported candidate Ceannard Cogaidh V

During this time ConDud would get into multiple arguments over the idea of the party and capitalism. Through this he would state that the Vanguard Party was simply a tactic to hold dictatorship like powers over the people, as the idea of the party forced all politicians to follow the same beliefs which he said negated the purpose of public elections. In this time he would also form the Duragrad Post, which would include anti-party opinion sections. The Defense Minister Oot at the time would be angered as he was mentioned and described as an "idiotic revolutionary" criticising his past in The Black Rose which was a movement that stood for Tovarishan independence from Viodoxa, Oot would write this:

>
>  "Bruh oot himself? No it was me blight Lumos and anon don’t blame this just on me you viodoxian loving pig, explain yourself"
>
>
>
>

ConDud responded

>
>  "I Stand by the notion that Oot is a blatantly overly prideful trigger happy idiot in his politics and foreign policy. We've seen this with the dreaded "Black Rose" which attempted to fix the non-existent problem of "Viodoxan Oppression" which as we've all seen was practically non-existent. With the Archon barely interfering with Tovarishan affairs! Your only valid complaint was the LACK of support from Viodoxa. Oot has shown he could very easily get a group of people to turn on Ecclesia, and for our sakes should for the remainder of his time in political office STAY IN HIS LANE AND NOT SPOUT ANY OF HIS DULL-WITTED IDEAS AND OVER PRIDE."

both of these were released publicly.

Later ConDud would appoint General\_ich as his vice mayor due to popular demand after General\_Ich's large work effort and short revitalization of the city. This would cause some including former mayor Anonymus to call for ConDud's resignation and replacement by Ich.

### Late life and death

At age 61, ConDud would issue the following statement to the citizens of Duragrad:

"You all are the first to hear this, but I come with the news that I have been Diagnosed with a Brain Tumor. The same kind that many in Clan Dud have had, I am expected to die within months. I will release updates as much as I can, as for now my symptoms are minor and I should be able to rule effectively. When I do die I wish to grant my mayorship to General ich as he seems to be the man of the people and I see it fair that he was next in line. Good day and I am to hope that my legacy is kept in tact. I have contacted my brother GhurDud, but seeing as he is missing somewhere in Alteniquia it was likely his home was conquered by the Certarian Empire. It is likely Clan Dud will come to an end. Burgameria Rodyokta!"

ConDud and his personal doctor would travel to an undisclosed location to attend a speech. During which ConDud would suffer a severe stroke, causing him to collapse. He would be rushed to a nearby hospital where he would officially be pronounced dead. The mayorship of Duragrad would be transferred to General Ich

## Legacy

ConDud's death would be met with an outpour of support from Burgamerians. Even those that apposed him politically would commend him for his dedication to the people. With him being commended in a public mourning announcement as a "Burgamerian Legend" black armbands would be worn in remembrance of ConDud in the week following his death. Soon after his death Burgamere would conquer Certaria, meaning ConDud died shortly before finally being able to see his old home again, Sherman would be adopted to Clan Dud after his death.

## Relations

    ConDud was friendly with multiple people, such as Assassintim07 who funded his city building efforts, as well as supplied him with gear prior to a war. ConDud was good friends with multiple UBSR politicians, and Certarian citizens. He has also made friendly relations with Duragrad citizens, and was once friends with Oot and Anonymus, but relations soured over major political disagreements in the Confederation. ConDud was friends with ElvisDr4k3n, who both agree on many political issues. ConDud only held a grudge against The Hands, as they were responsible for invading his former home.

## Political ideology

ConDud was more apposed to the Radical Left ideology adopted by most Burgamerians advocating for a less worker-centric culture and a freeing of the markets. ConDud hoped to eventually open Suburbia in Duragrad however lack of support and resources caused the project to never make it anywhere. He was also deemed a Bureaucrat by many Burgamerians, where he often attempted to re-structure areas of government as to add more layers. One of his more famous proposals was a general overview document for the Confederation of Burgamere where proposed multiple councils including Regional and Federal. He liked the idea of courts to regulate the government and Ministries to assist city mayors that lacked proper support.

ConDud radically opposed the idea of a one party system saying it was dystopian and prevented free thinking in politics. He would lose much support and have to mostly retreat from mainstream politics as his lack of party membership made him unavailable for any Political Offices other than his Mayor position.
