Ricimer the Handsome

Ricimer Caracalla (also known as Ricimer the Handsome) was a High Elven noble and aristocrat belonging to the House of Britannicus, as well as one of the main magistrates of the province of Augustaminca.

Ricimer was one of the main offensive-opponents of the War of Summers' Solstice, and is in-part responsible for the inverse creation of the Trinity.

Upbringings
Ricimer was born on the 11th of June in Veloncia, a prospering village to the west of the Mundo Mountains in the province of Augustaminca. The son of two nobles who presided in the Northern Territories even prior-to the official D'lanastion holding of the area, he grew up with a privileged life and good education.

During his adolescence, he was sent to a secondary school in the northeastern city of Orion to study frost magic.

Service to Veloncia
Following his graduation of the minor colleges established in Orion, Ricimer went on to practice the art of frost alongside his peers in his home city of Veloncia, returning only after his term as the secretary of the Consul of the city was through.

While his family celebrated his return with a feast to honour his achievements and education, Ricimer met the presiding Consul of Veloncia, Laetes Bluebird. The two hit off their conversation immediately, and even after the party stayed in contact with one another. It was because of this friendship that after Laetes' term as Consul was through that the former-politician went to the people to humbly request an allowance of succession.

Supported by his family, his peers, and now the former Consul, Ricimer was appointed his new position in 1543 A.F.

Knighting and Appointment
As the D'lanastion houses' separate bloodlines continued their war in the northern territory of Sinn'mearnu for dictatorship over the area, Ricimer had done a fine job of keeping most of Augustaminca together alongside the other Consuls of cities far beyond his own. He established connections with bases in Volencia and Gaul, and even opened trading routes with Rube, the river-city to the east.

When the war between the D'lanastions concluded in Sinn'mearnu with a victory earned by the House of the Dominus and its allies, the House of Britannicus - newly acclaimed and sworn to the service of the thusly-formed D'lanastion Monarchy - marched its magi into Augustaminca, ordering all Consuls to formerly accept the new terms of governance. For a short time, much of the province resisted. It was only in the year following, 1599 A.F, that all of the cities would properly yield.

Ricimer was hand-picked from the list of Consuls due to both the size of Veloncia and his own lineage. On April 19th, he was sired in a formal ceremony and named "Sir" alongside the other 5 men who would later become lords of their own territories.
