Edvard Amador was born on the 6th of The Grand Harvest in the year 1732 of the First Age to Henrik II Amador, Baron of Mondstadt and Tamar of Biscay. For as long as the man can remember, he's had an obsession with minas, and obtaining it. In the year Seventeen Fifty of the First Age, he became a Steward and this marked the beginning of his service to the Kingdom of Hanseti-Ruska. The man would continue to hold a variety of high positions related to money such as High Seneschal and Royal Treasurer. Due to his obsession with minas and actions he takes persuing it, he was dubbed the nickname 'The Tax Man', and would be known by all throughout the Kingdom. Alas, no matter how much money the man would collect no amount would ever satisfy him. Even when reaching goals that some men and women could only dream of, he still wasn't satisfied. His taste for minas knew no bounds.

Early Life

W.I.P.

Personality

Edvard is a man who prioritizes money above all and acts mainly with money in mind. He truly believes that if he makes money for himself, his family, and his Kingdom then it will bring him great happiness. Although no matter how much minas he makes, he is never satisfied. In his efforts to gain money, he has evicted orphanages, homeless shelters, and more as as the properties weren't generating revenue. Although he is tough at times, he can be nice, and goes out of his way to help those who wish to move to the Kingdom of Haense and those who reside within the Kingdom.

Appearance

Edvard is a six foot tall man with dark blue eyes, and black hair. Although in his later years, his hair would turn start turning grey. The man also has a scruffy unkept beard. Edvard can be seen wearing a few different outfits, although most of them are blue to show off one of the two family colours. The outfits he is most commonly spotted wearing are the families armor, which bares the Lorraine Cross or a white shirt with a blue coat.

Titles / Positions

Steward (1750-Present)

WIP

High Steward (1758-1770) / Lord Seneschal (1770-1776)

After his cousin Rennard retired from the position of High Steward in the year 1758, the Crown decided that Edvard was clearly the best choice to succeed him. During his time as High Steward, Edvard did wonders for the Kingdoms tax income, increasing it many times over. He was merciless in his endeavor to make the Kingdom money. Any who dared to not pay taxes were kicked out of their properties, and were left to roam the streets. Although this may seem like a terrible deed, it did indeed accomplish it's goal. Those who didn't pay taxes would be replaced by those who did. Those who paid late wouldn't pay late anymore or wouldn't pay as late because of fear of being evicted. Edvard evicted homeless shelters, holy men, and orphanages in his pursuit for money. Although he was merciless, he was also understanding and kind. If you paid late, as long as you had a good reason then he would extend the date before you had to pay your tax. Then in the year 1770, his Majesty Sigismund II, King of Hanseti-Ruska noticed Edvard's hard works and reformed his title to the Seneschal title in his Council Reforms.

Knight of the Order of Queen Maya and the Lily (1769-Present)

During his tenure as Lord Seneschal, his Majesty Sigismund II bestowed Edvard Amador honorary Knighthood for his hard work as High Steward. This allowed Edvard to call himself Sir Edvard Amador, and add the letters KML after his name to show that he was a Knight of Queen Maya and the Lily.

Royal Treasurer: (1776-Present)

Edvard was appointed to the position of Royal Treasurer in the year of 1776, by the Lord Regent, Konstantin Wick. His efforts as Lord Seneschal were recognized by Konstantin and the other Aulic Council members so when they heard that he planned to retire as Lord Seneschal and explore other job options, they thought that he would be the perfect fit to succeed Rennard. Once appointed, Edvard wasted no time, and quickly got to work on a new treasury ledger and started to review the current financial state of the Kingdom. The man would continue working hard as he did previously, ensuring that the Kingdom had a plentiful amount of money.

Member of the House of Commons (1786-1786)

In the year of 1786 of the First Age, Edvard Amador was elected to the House of Commons, a legislative body in the Holy Orenian Empire. His hope was to ensure the interests of the Haeseni people. However, his tenure was ended abruptly. During his first session, he left halfway through to attend an important meeting with the King of Hanseti-Ruska, Josef I, and his other closest advisers and Knights. During this meeting at the Imperial Palace, their Imperial Majesties Empress Anne I and Emperor Joseph II of the Holy Orenian Empire declared the Kingdom of Hanseti-Ruska to be an Independent State, no longer under the Empire. This led to all the Haeseni people losing their seat in the House of Commons, thus ending the brief tenure of Edvard's time in the House of Commons.

The Tax Man Poem

This poem, called "The Tax Man" was written for Edvard in the year Seventeen Eighty Seven in the First Age. Although the name and details of the writer was lost over time.

The Tax Man,
Always got a plan.
Raise em up.
Fall em down.
Get the money.
Get the honey.
Money money money.
Tax man.
