Biography

Early Life

Frederick was born in Aeldin in 1685 as the only child of an elderly Thomas Baden. Frederick’s father had grown wealthy in Aeldin, but he never got to enjoy his father’s riches, as he was sent to Aeldin to fight in Third Atlas Coalition War, where he fought in both the Siege of Nordengrad and the Siege of San'Kala at the mere age of four. He fought only with a dagger that he had been given by his father prior to his departure, as he was not able to lift a sword properly yet. After Nordengrad, he became a squire and went on many quests. During their quests in their youth, he became good friends with Seth Renault, who would later marry Ophelia Horen before they’d both disappear.

Knight of the Empire

When he reached the age of eighteen, Frederick became a Knight Errant of the Empire of Man. He led multiple expeditions on Atlas, especially north to fight in the Vaeyl Wars. He was wounded towards the end of the Vaeyl Wars and unable to fight, but instead of going directly to Arcas, he went to Aeldin to visit his dying father. After his father’s death, he moved to Arcas, only to realise that most of his friends had either died or disappeared. He moved to the Imperial Capital, Helena, who’s namesake he had a good friendship with. He finally became a Knight of the Realm in 1710, when the Order of Pertinax was formed, where he acts as the Knight Paramount, Aldis Chase’s, right hand.

War of the Two Emperors

When the War of the Two Emperors started, Frederick swore his loyalty to Godfrey III and the Pertinax faction, even though his father had served the Johannians. On the 10th of Godfrey’s Triumph 1716, he married Anastasia Capet in a small ceremony in the Imperial Palace of Helena performed by the former High Pontiff Pontian II. He fought in the Siege of Helena, while victorious in the battle, he suffered many injures. He was awarded the title "Draughtsman of Renatus" for his efforts in preparation for the siege. His firstborn child, Seth Aurelius Baden, was born on the 9th of the Amber Cold, 1716.
