Siegmund Kerlbror
Arle Siegmund Kerlbror
I do not want another morning starting with a Merchant who had gone missing a week ago showing up bloated and floating in the harbor with half a leg missing - chewed on. Order at least two guards to escort merchants whenever they leave their wagons or the inns and taverns.
Physical Description
General Physical Condition
Identifying Characteristics
Since Siegmund made his claim on the throne of the High King, loose tongues have commented on the young man's strong resemblance to the late High King and the similar resemblance between Magnus and DadKerlbror.
Facial Features
Pale hair he usually keeps shoulder length and hates cutting it shorter, claiming his head has an unusual shape.
Body Features
Tall and broadshouldered, he would sunburn easily with his fair skintone, and a scar from a dog bite when he was a child shows as a gnarled twisted series of scars years later.
Physical Quirks
Kerlbror as a child was extremely flexible, and as an adult, he still periodically demonstrates the same level of flexibility though he has been less inclined towards such demonstrations.
To the concern of his personal physicians and those who grew up with him, he has always healed slowly from injuries, and his scars would develop large scabs that would thicken into large knots.
Biography
Early Life
Education
Nobility in often receive the widest base of education of any economic group in Theydim. He had to study Thydian history, Ostufer history, the history of the neighboring Arlings, Thydian religion, economic theory, shipping and caravan routes, military tactics for land and sea, how to sail a ship and perform every task a ship would need - as any Ostufer youth would, - how to host a diplomatic event and everything related to diplomacy.
Less common to nobility, however, Siegmund took an interest in managing roads, engineering, and the logistics of moving armies and goods across vast regions.
Employment
Siegmund took up the title of Arle after his father passed away when he was in his late teens. It has been suggested the young Arle at the time had mostly followed his mother's recommendations more often than any other advisor, leading to the speculation she was the one ruling instead of him.
Over the years, however, Siegmund found his own way to lead and make his own decision, even contradicting his mother. The speculations were put to rest as an example of another young Arle learning how to govern an Arling as a whole.
Accomplishments & Achievements
Failures & Embarrassments
As a child, Siegmund used to get into fights with Tilde Magnusdotr when she would imply her father thought his mother was too ugly to marry. These events have, unfortunately, formed the basis of his reputation with several people closer to the Thydian capitals.
Very detailed and complex. It really feels like biographical info on a real someone.
At this stage, I actually have several parts removed to avoid inflating my word count with empty formatting while I consider what will fill those blanks I am glad the article feels complete as it is.
