Mental characteristics
Personal history
Fredrick Augustin Herberger Crimzon was born during a period of relative stability in The Republic of Amatrace. He was groomed from birth to take his father's place as Patriarch of House Crimzon. He was elected as Senator Representative of Parliamentary District 14 after his father suddenly resigned and caused a special election to be held. Frederick's political opponents were unprepared for the election and Fredrick won the seat and has maintained it for 23 years. Under Frederick House Crimzon has become increasingly more involved in politics in the Northern Military Occupation Zone 1, his family has supported many businesses in the region and gained lots of wealth from tobacco products that are processed there and sold to The Republic. When he was 20 Fredrick had his first daughter, Austia Crimzon, of which not much is publically known. There are rumors that she was born deformed, or as a tiefling. The public record states that she was accepted into the Amatracian Military Academy and graduated with high honors in Military Engineering, but she was not at the public ceremony due to illness. His first and only son was born when Frederick was 23, Percival Conrad Crimzon. Frederick has supported Percival's political aspirations in District 14 and it's assumed Percival will take Frederick's spot as Patriarch and likely run to take his Parliamentary Seat. Lastly, Frederick had an allegedly unexpected daughter when he was 28, Victoria Elly Crimzon which was a bit of a small scandal as his wife and he claimed they were not going to have any more kids after Percival. Frederick and his Wife Mary claimed they changed their minds, but it is unknown whether this is true or saving face. Victoria was arranged to marry Gregor Solbur, but the marriage fell through after he defected from the Military. With her newfound freedom, she started a clothing boutique in Arnarnes (Captial of District 14) which has had moderate success.
Reign
Senator of District 14:
Frederick has had a stable position as Senator of District 14 and has never faced a close election campaign for the seat. Despite not a single bushel of tobacco growing in District 14 its tobacco-related economy has skyrocketed during his time in office due to favorable trade and distribution legislation proposed and passed through National Parliament and District Council. His constituents lovingly refer to him as Smokey Fred due to him always being seen smoking a cigar and his support of a candidate can easily sway an election in the district. Ishalan War: District 14 has always been a region that has focused on economic growth over blatant Jingoism, unlike most northern Amatracian Districts. Frederick has represented his voters' positions well, favoring The Ishalan War initially, but reeling back his support when the supply line demands began to affect the price of food in his district. His campaigning with other Senators forced Parliament to restrict the amount of food The Furher could purchase for his campaign. This negatively affected the progress of the second theatre, but stabilized food prices back in Amatrace, averting a massive economic disaster for many non-agricultural regions. After The Furher's food purchasing power was limited Frederick continued his support of the war, with reason. Stating that if The Military did not achieve its goals of a Principality Surrender and seizing of Abbadon by the end of the 3rd Theatre he would no longer support the military conflict.Cabinet Officer of Tobacco and Smokeable Goods
Frederick supported Ivar Harald Konetaker as Prime Minister of the National Parliament during his election campaign in 1817 T5A. Ivar won the election and in an unusual move decided to replace the previous nonpolitical officer of Tabacco and Smokeable Goods with Frederick. There was an initial backlash from Parliament, but Frederick was eventually accepted into Office when he and his family uncovered Tobacco smuggling and dilution in The Northern Military Occupation Zone 1. Ever since he has served competently in proposing laws to regulate and standardize tobacco and other smokeable goods. A notable piece of legislation he advocated for and got passed with the support of Prime Minister Konetaker is centralizing all tobacco trade from Fowdya and beyond through District 14, creating healthy economic traffic to the region and making inspection and testing easier for The Republic.
