'''1926'''

Born to Frederick II of Oren and his consort [[Mathilde Euphrosine of Leuven]] in 1912. Richard Leonus Novellen would be welcomed to this world in a most turbulent time in the Dynasty’s history. Shortly after his birth he would be hidden away and under the guardianship of his aunt, Maude Fredericka of Mardon. Richard would spend his youth under his aunt’s tutelage where she would herself or via a tutor, educate the young prince on all things he would need to know. Kept out of the limelight to ensure his safety, he did not know many his age growing up besides those of Maude’s children to even that was a rare occurrence. Though those he did know would go on to be Sir Baldwin of Mardon, Sir Arthur Verider, and Alaria Verdier, and Sir Antoine of Leuven, most coming from common birth but in time became Richard's most trusted friends and advisors.

While Richard did not have many memories of his parents, he held them always in high regard and close to his heart, though his aunt in his eyes was more a parent to him than any individual. He would escape the perils of the end of Almaris with his kin and arrive at Failor. It was on this island where Richard came into contact with his first real military experience, a true battle. Narrowly avoiding death on two separate occasions fighting the necromancer’s forces, he then traveled back to his kin and settled before GOD had plans for the descendants to travel onwards, this time reaching their now permanent home of Aevos. Alongside his siblings and friends, they would establish the Stassion Company before resettling in the lands of the Archduchy of Petra. While residing in the capital, he would come into contact with Sir Lucien de Rouen the patriarch of House Ashford de Rouen, a legendary house who for a long time was loyal to his kin, while their paths diverged following the end of the Kingdom, Sir Lucien bestowed upon Richard the sword of his grandfather, Conquest.

Upon his formal ascension and appearance to the world, Richard would be named the Fourth Count of Stassion in the year 1932, and he would be given land to construct a homeland to all those loyal to his House and any who wished to start anew. After two years of being the Count of Stassion, Richard alongside his compatriots would begin and complete the construction of Castle Aurelian, the seat and bastion of the mainline of the House of Novellen. In the year 1937 Richard would wed [[Ottavia of Pompourelia]] and in the following months they would host a Grand Feast celebrating the completion of Fredericksburg, the quaint township at the foot of Castle Aurelian's mount. While Richard's had only just begun, Stassion would grow tenfold, in the same year, his liege Renilde I of the Petra was crowned as Queen of the Petrans, at this momentous occasion the bannermen of the Stassion Company would show up in force to support her rallying 150 men in attendance. As they marched home with the festivities concluded, the town of Fredericksburg became a bustling hub of commerce and travel. This would only aid in the growth of Stassion as a whole. On the 7th of Horen's Calling, 1938, Richard and Ottavia would welcome their first child into this world, in honor of his father [[Frederick II, King of Oren|Frederick Aurelian]], naming her Aurelia Fredericka Novellen. Towards the end of 1938 Richard would alongside the Monarchs of Petra and Aaun come to an agreement that would see Stassion transferred to the Kingdom of Aaun to allow for greater prosperity and overall growth. This transfer would be officiated upon the Amendment of the Constance River Accords. With Richard and his people now in Aaun, they would hold the Champion's Tourney where many showed in attendance, Richard would bestow his cousin and the Tourney's victor John Sigismund with the Champion's Prize alongside a knighthood. From there Richard would travel back to his castle and begin laying the foundations of future growth and missives imperative to Stassion. As the golden horizon broke on the 12th of Owyn's Flame Richard and his wife Ottavia would welcome their first son and heir to the world, surrounded by kin and friends, the pride of an heir overjoyed Stassion and would welcome a time of growth and prosperity to the western marches the House of Novellen ruled over.
