Emperor Georg Hellgate Character in Ages | World Anvil

Emperor Georg Hellgate

Emperor of the Demic Empire

Emperor Georg Hellgate (a.k.a. Dragon King)

Georg Hellgate Came to power in a small kingdom called Demic in 4E1165 at an age of 31. He had recently inherited the Hellgate gold mines after his late uncle, Samuel Hellgate in 4E1161. The mine had been failing for over 30 years and was seen as a lost cause, He laid off most of the workforce and spent most of his own time in the mines. And then Georg turned it around in 4E1163 where he suddenly started hauling gold up from the mines. No one can say exactly how he did it, Nevertheless, In less than a year the mine produced more gold than it had done in the last 10 years. Georg used this newfound wealth of resources to start a rebellion and successfully overthrew the rather weak king Alfred IIII, a king that recently had lost a second war with Erevland, and thus held very little favour with both the people and the army. After Georg got to power he began diplomatic relations with most other nations in the area, and together with Vargeland started what's called the Demic Expansion wars, a period that lasted from 4E1175 to 4E1186 where Georg turned Demic turn from a weak kingdom to a major empire known for its aggressive nature and recognized by every major power in the known world.

i like the simplicity of this article! Granted that this is still barebones but i still see a lot of potential in it. For expansion you could again use linking here and also you could polish and flesh out his persona and sociality and maybe establish a bit more about his relationships with some of your other characters. This could allow for much more depth and context and potential room for conflict. I was reminded a bit about Aenarion the defender from warhammer fantasy by this guy for some reason but its probably my brain shutting down as i havent slept a lot. Keep up the good work!

I haven't had time to write to much here yet, so most of what I have put out is pretty barebones xd. Hopefully, it will change over time, I have a lot more characters both alive and historical I want to write about as well as events and places. I am going to fill out more about for example how this guy got to power, for example when I have an article on Kaslen-Kar, you see, the mine he inherited, he found a lost dwarven empire and worked out a deal with them, not something I have written about yet but it will come. As for Aenarion, I think he would wipe the floor with everything in my world xD altho again most of my stuff is in some way Warhammer inspired.   Thanks for the comment and interest in my world!! I haven't really tried to write anything like this before so everything is quite new to me! xd
