Erik var Ruthern (1752 - Present) was the fourth born son of Count Siguine 'The Lost' and Maria Vasilland. Leaving his home country of Haense at a young age, Erik found a new home in the Holy Orenian Empire where he enlisted in the Imperial State Army as an Ensign. When a disagreement in the House of Ruthern broke out, Erik moved his lineage to Oren and eventually was awarded his own peerage in Oren as Count of Kositz upon the marriage of his daughter to the grandson of Joseph II. In 1832, Erik rose to the rank of General of the Imperial State Army after the resignation of the former general, William Darkwood.
