Krassus Sithurian

Early Life
Krassus Sithurian was born in the year 1978, in a small village just outside the city of Haven, which was then located in the southern province of the Kingdom of Reichsland. He was born to the noble family that went by the household name of Sithurian, due to their old ancestral home of Sithuri.The family had worked closely in the courts of Reichsland with the emperors for over 5 generations,before finally gaining a nobleship given to Krassus's great-gradfather Julius Sithurian. The family held a modest count's position over the city of Haven first, and then they eventually gained the Duke title and given control of the entire southern province. In 1978, when Krassus was born his father Marcus was the Duke and the young heir was quickly taught to expect a life of responiblity and honor. At the age of twelve he was sent to Reichsland's premier millitary academy for a six year course to study modern warfare and gain an officers position after graduation.

Career
At the age of eighteen he graduated and recieved a commision as a second LT,within the Haven Brigade,as all military units consisted of men from the same region.After serving for 4 years he was awarded a captains position and given a brigade of elite shocktroopers all who had been born in his region.Shortly thereafter the kingdom of Reichsland became involved in a bitter war with a neighbor country over illegal raiding and Captain Sithurians brigade was quickly sent to the front lines. The small conflict went on for years and finally when the enemy had been beat back enough the emporer of Reichsland gave an entire army division to Sithurian and promoted him to the postion of Lt. General, on account of his nobility.It was around the same period also that his father died an Krassus was given the offical title of Duke of Haven. A month later he recieved orders to wipe out the enemy capital winning the war. This the young general did with what seemed to be ease and was then proclaimed hero of the war. With a newfound peace Krassus believed he might finally have some much needed rest however less than six months after the war had ended a dispute arose among the north and south of the kingdom over the issue of unfair tax and persection of the religion practiced in the south. Finally the people had enough and began to rebal storming the forts in the region.Allmost immediatly the emporer orderd Krassus to head south and put an end to the dissent. However Krassus could never live with this. He had seen to much war. He could never be made to march home and unjustly murder thousands of his fellow countrymen.He reluctantly gave his resignation and headed south to his hometown alongside with his original loyal brigade. His countrymen happy to hear the news then decided that their only hope was if he would lead them against the emporers invading army. This he did, greatly honored with such a duty. The war was vicious and long. Both sides fought for life and death at times however in the end Krassus again proved himself and won the war for his countrymen forcing the ashamed emporer to concede deafeat.With their newfound freedom the south only deemed it was right to offer Krassus one more final offer.In thanks for all they gave him a crown and chair making him consul for life of the new sounthern nation named after him....Sithurian. He was only 32 years old.
