Biography[edit | edit source]
Early Life in Old Aurean Empire[edit | edit source]
Theodor Kinwood grew up in the lands of the Continent of Ostos, more precisely in present-day Minolia Province (formerly referred to as Havstad or "Aurean Bastille"). Growing up in Ostos, Theodor quickly joined the Aurean Empire which at the time was being led by the Aurean Emperor Kevlar IV Vaughn. Theodor proved to be an extremely competent member of the Aurean Empire, where he quickly rose to prominence as a member of the Old Guard Corps. Theodor served from the Fifth Aurean Empire until its annexation to the Dominion of Carolusburg.
However, Theodor would come to prominence in the Seventh Aurean Empire during the reign of His Imperial Excellency, the Aurean Emperor, Cassio I the Magnanimous. Where, Theodor gained the support of several aureans being elected as Grand Magistrate of the former Aurean House of Representatives under the banner of the Aurean Conservative Party (at the time managed by Theodor and Fergus Zuravic, but Theodor remained as leader of the party). Before Theodor became Grand Magistrate of the former Aurean House of Representatives, he would have to face a major opposition to his party, this being the Mossback Party, led at the time by Messena (also known as Ajax Artois). However, Theodor would win the support of the Aurean population and win with a majority of 26 votes in favor. Thus, Theodor would become the first democratically elected Grand Magistrate of the Aurean Empire.
During Theodor's period as Grand Magistrate of the former Aurean House of Representatives, Theodor would put his main project into practice: the Aurean Police Department (APC), which lasted for a short time due to the inability of the Aurean Empire to develop in the civilian branch due to his barbaric manner of leadership. Additionally, Theodor aided in the establishment of New Fiore (the Colonial Capital of the Aurean Empire in Estos) by recruiting many civilians to become Aureans. However, during his term, Theodor would come to prominence mainly within the former Aurean House of Lords, where most nobles would like to have Theodor as heir to their lands. But, faced with several choices, Theodor chose to follow the paths of his grandfather Richard Lux Vaughn, who at the time was an Aurean Prince. Thus, Theodor would become a member of the Royal House of Lux and would be preparing to become heir to Richard Lux Vaughn's lands of Albion and Galia.
Subsequently, Theodor's 1 Stefanic Year term would come to an end with Cassio I dissolving the entire House of Representatives. From that period onwards, the Seventh Aurean Empire's campaign in Estos would fail with its constant defeats under Amestria. This caused Cassio I to order the end of the expedition to Estos and the return of the Aurean Empire to Ostos. So Theodor remained in Estos and began his term as Kaiser of Phoenix.
Kaiserreich of Phoenix[edit | edit source]
We can't talk about Theodor Kinwood without first mentioning the Kaiserreich of Phoenix (also known as the Phoenix Kaiserreich). Theodor currently holds the title of Kaiser of Phoenix and is considered legitimate by former Kaiser of Phoenix, Constantine I, and former founder (currently exiled) Morian Clifford (also known as Morais Clifford). Theodor has led Phoenix on several occasions, both in Estos and Ostos in the Phoenix Foundation Corps. During his time leading Phoenix in Ostos, Theodor fought several battles against Marlin Alexandrovich and Marlin Linde (bandit organizations affiliated with the Free City of Oldenburg and the House of Artois). In addition, Theodor won the Morianite Rebellion (pretenders who called themselves the true Phoenix, however, using unrealistic arguments). Thus, Theodor retains to this day the only rightful claim to the Kaiserreich of Phoenix although he is in a dormant state in the present day.
Also, it is worth mentioning that during the period of Theodor actively leading Phoenix, Theodor transformed Phoenix from a barbaric nation into something stable with a developed society. Where, several artists produced arts for the cultural development of the Empire. In addition, Phoenix had several governments led by different Prime Ministers, such as: Dragon, Redkill, Henrike Kinwood, among others. However, a government in Phoenix was not a stable thing. Thus, Phoenix would become an absolutist regime following a set of laws along with the constitution.
[edit | edit source]
At the time, Theodor was enlisted in the Old Guard Corps in the Aurean Empire on the Continent of Ostos along with the Bonhart Family (composed at the time of Tsu, Theodor, Doss and others). However, all of that would change when at the end of the Auro-Loganite Empire, the Aurean Emperor, Kevlar V Vaughn would invite Theodor and Tsu to an emergency meeting at the Emerald Palace in Valeroche. During the meeting, Kevlar V completely destroyed Theodor and Tsu's admiration for the Aurean Empire by accusing them without any basis or evidence of treason against the Aurean Empire. This caused both of them to enlist in the Imperial Sarovian Navy in circa 295 AS to exact revenge on Kevlar V Vaughn's tyranny.
Theodor during his initial period in the Imperial Sarovian Navy shortly before the end of the Second Saro-Aurean War, Theodor participated in and survived one of the greatest battles on the Continent of Ostos, this being the "Grand Battle of the Bastille", which took place in present-day Minolia Province. After this battle, all Aurean forces were completely destroyed and Theodor would witness the creation of the Dominion of Carolusburg, who would later become Governor-General of it. In addition, during Theodor's period in the Imperial Sarovian Navy he would reach the rank of Rear Admiral in addition to winning the record of 273 kills against Angelite Rebels, so Theodor was long considered one of the best sailors that the Imperial Sarovian Navy could have. Currently, Theodor is in the rank of Rear Admiral of the Far West Fleet.
Footballer[edit | edit source]
During the beginning of football within the Commonwealth, Theodor stood out in the youth teams of FC Dufort, joining the professional team in a short time due to his great talent within the sport. Therefore, due to his high performance at FC Dufort (his favorite club) he was invited to join the Carodian National Team to represent it in international tournaments. During his career in the "Carodian Bulls", he became champion of two special editions of the Commonwealth considered as "world championships", where, Theodor won an edition of the Commonwealth Cup and also the first edition of the Sarholm Cup (which is considered a title of the Commonwealth for being the first official IFFC competition).
He spent almost his entire professional career at FC Dufort, where he is the club's top scorer (57), in addition to being twice champion of the Carodian Cup and champion of the Burvanica League (Carodian Championship), in addition to several other competitions' top scorer titles. such as the Burvanica League and Carodian Cup. In addition to these titles, Theodor was consecrated as the first carodian to receive the trophy "The Best of the Commonwealth", given by the Ministry of Culture of the New Sarovian Empire to the player who stood out among several others such as: Doss, Koji, Park, among others. In addition, Theodor as a footballer broke several records. Such as: 16 goals in a single match, and 81 goals overall as a professional footballer. Therefore, Theodor is considered as Greatest of All Time (GOAT). Theodor Kinwood ended his glorious career as a professional footballer playing for his favorite team, FC Dufort, where he scored a goal in his official farewell. Celebrating during his goal taking off the FC Dufort "7" jersey and showing it to the crowd.
Viceroy of Carolusburg and Aurea[edit | edit source]
After the death of Theodor Kinwood's grandfather, the first Governor-General, Richard Lux Vaughn, His Royal Majesty, the King of Carolusburg and Aurea, chose Theodor Kinwood to assume the position of Governor-General as he was the most able and dedicated person to that position. Furthermore, according to Colonial and Commonwealth Office reports, Theodor was the most apt person to develop the Dominion. This caused His Majesty the King, Constantine I, to officially appoint Theodor Kinwood as the 2nd Governor-General of Carolusburg.
During Theodor Kinwood's period as Viceroy of Carolusburg and Aurea he became one of the best Governors-General according to His Imperial Highness, the Prince of Kiev, John Vasa. Some of Theodor's accomplishments were the creation of bet houses, and, consequently, affiliated with Horse Racing. In addition to these great achievements, Theodor Kinwood was instrumental in the development of the Dominion in cultural matters (in addition to which Theodor Kinwood graduated from Falkenholm College and became one of the best Ministers of Culture that the New Sarovian Empire and Her Colonies and Dominions had throughout its existence.
It is also important to highlight, among the great services that Theodor Kinwood performed as Governor-General of the Dominion of Carolusburg, one of his main projects: Football. Undoubtedly, during Theodor Kinwood's tenure as Viceroy of Carolusburg and Aurea, he fueled the growth of football in the country. Thus, to this day Commonwealth nations regard Carolusburg as "Football Country", or, "Temple of Football". One of the reasons for this huge growth is that many people from Estos traveled to Ostos just to watch Theodor Kinwood play during his final phase as a professional footballer..
Furthermore, Theodor Kinwood during his period as Governor-General managed to carry out several missions entrusted by His Royal Majesty, the King of Carolusburg and Aurea, Constantine I. Thus, Theodor in 305 AS would be appointed by Constantine I as 2nd Marquis of Burvanica, thus taking the title of highest pair in the country. Unfortunately, during Theodor Kinwood's tenure the Carolusburg government, which at the time was headed by Prime Minister Doss Kinwood, would steadily undermine the Dominion with major inactivity in the Carodian Parliament. However, Theodor Kinwood endeavored to address this crisis until the end of his term as Governor-General. His mandate ended in 307 AS when he was no longer able to carry out his duties due to serious problems in real life. This made the Dominion practically "disappear from the map" (this was also aggravated due to the failures of the former Carodian government). Knowing this, Theodor chose to step down for the good of his people. Thus, his father, Tsu Kinwood, one of the best Prime Ministers of the New Sarovian Empire, would embark towards Ostos to carry out a great mission: "Save Carodia".
The Ministry of Culture[edit | edit source]
Theodor Kinwood has always been very interested in the culture of the New Sarovian Empire and Her Colonies and Dominions (this also includes the Dominion of Carolusburg of which he was Viceroy). This made Theodor seek to know the history of his nation with the aim of becoming a great pillar of Sarovian culture in the future, equal to his inspirations such as Kiddbrutal Kaine, Leonard, among others. What Theodor didn't know is that he would become something much more, being known in the future by the Sarovian population as: "the Best Minister of Culture". Theodor served as Minister of Culture from about 302 to 305 AS, and, even with "a short time" in his service, he managed to develop Sarovian culture and win the hearts of the people.
Theodor as Minister of Culture was responsible for organizing the first edition of the Commonwealth Olympic Games, this being considered his biggest and most successful project (although the others also achieved high visibility in general). The first edition of the Commonwealth Olympic Games had as its main sports: Horse Racing, Spar and Football. The games were held on two continents (Estos and Ostos), where Spar was held in Estos, Horse Racing in Ostos, and Football games were held in 2 stages (one in Estos and the other in Ostos). The games were watched by over 50 people from the New Sarovian Empire. In addition, the main Commonwealth nations participated, namely: the Blades of Nekron (won the Spar modality), the Dominion of Carolusburg (won the Horse Racing modality), and the New Sarovian Empire (won the football modality - which came as a surprise to many Sarovians as the "Carodian Bulls" had big stars in their squad, and arguably had a much higher technical quality than the ISFF). The Commonwealth Olympic Games Project grew to such an extent that an official Act (approved during Tsu Kinwood's term), written by Theodor Kinwood, was established, which officialized the Commonwealth Olympic Games.
In addition to his focus on the creation of the Commonwealth Olympic Games, Theodor Kinwood has dedicated himself to the development of national football, where he developed the creation of the main championships of the Sarovian Commonwealth. These being: the Burvanica League, Carodian Cup, Sarholm Cup and the Commonwealth Cup. The games were very well received by the population, which undoubtedly increased the mood of the national population and the demand for players in the transfer window.
