Athkar Therion
President Athkar Leir Therion
Athkar is the current elected official to represent Therris. Elected for their first term 5 years ago they have already started making leaps and bounds. Athkar is the first president of Therris that is not a native to the country, and even hails from Dur. Though this was used against him during his running, it also was played out positively that he would have an "innate understanding" of other places and better help Therris navigate politically. He has also been using this to try and influence Therris to preemptively "free" those who are under "unjust rule" in other nations, starting with Dur.
Physical Description
General Physical Condition
Athkar is a tall black man with Vitiligo that covers the lower right portion of his face, which then strings down their body. When they are not clad in plate their extremely agile and toned figure can be seen. They generally hold themselves very weighty and move with what seems to be seamless ease.
Mental characteristics
Personal history
Born under one of the families in Dur during the purge by the Barons in Red. He was smuggled out of the city by his parents during this civil war within Galvaka, but his parents were captured and later executed by the Barons. This has been fuel for Athkar's rise to power, and he is set on creating a more equal and fair world for his people. This is somewhat influenced by being taught and educated within Therris. After crossing into their land he immediately tried to join the military, and used it to climb the ranks within the military. Given the option of leaving the military at 18, he refused and stayed within the military until elected president in 1796.
Employment
Served as a soldier for 12 years, gaining the rank of general. Then serving as president for the past 4. During their time as a soldier they primarily served as a defense force within the kingdom of Vive against the pirate scourge that is wracking the coasts. Through several lucky encounters Athkar was able to subdue a whole fleet of pirates after being captured during a raid.
Accomplishments & Achievements
The seat of presidency is less about making sweeping broad decisions and more about making the things you want to happen part of the public discussion, and thus far his greatest accomplishment is taking the city-state of Dur, freeing it from the barons that ran it previously. Though their rise to power was during a time of peace, Athkar made it very apparent at the start of their time as presidency that they wanted to move the country to a more active role in the world. This cultural push had been coming for many generations as galvakan refugees took to fleeing to Therris. These refugees included Athkar himself who served under the army to gain status and recognition.
Intellectual Characteristics
Athkar is pragmatic, and wants to do good for the world. His belief is that a people unhindered by monarchy and nobility is a happy people. This is why he wants to try and push Therris to their limits, and help free the people of the world.
Relationships
History
Athkar and Zathrakar met far before they became coworkers. Athkar was one of the people that supported Zathrakar's opinions on the train line, and even further they shared a passion for crunching numbers and statistics. Though there are times when Athkar will go by gut instinct which will always make Zathrakar have a quip in mind to throw at him.
