Early Life

Family & Friends

Joseph Clement de Sarkozy was raised by his single-mother Helena Eleanor de Sarkozy and partially by his step-father Philip Hughes de Rosius. He was named after Joseph II, though having the same green eyes as his great-grandfather Franz Nikolai de Sarkozy. Joseph had twelve siblings and each had their own passion. The House of Sarkozic does have a history of having many kinsman and so Joseph made the steps to strengthen family bonds with the Imperial Household. At age seven, he met Emperor Philip II, the second cousin to his grandfather Sir Tobias Henry de Sarkozy. Joseph his intention was to make as many friends as possible for he knew that his House was closely watched upon during the rule of Philip II, at least; so he describes within his diary. Joseph continued to spend time with his many siblings and cousins across the realm, and so his mother made Joseph Clement de Sarkozy the heir to the House of Sarkozic. He met his great-uncle Philip III for the first time within the Principality of Savoy, a few months before his great-uncle took the throne of the Empire. Joseph Clement reunited with the other side of Sarkozic for the mother of the Emperor was one of his house; and so he grew close to the Emperor and sees him as his kinsman. While he was a squire to his great-uncle, Joseph made his first-blood at the age of 12, by slamming the sharp edge of his sword into the shoulder of a bandit-elf who had his sword drawn on the innocent of the Holy Orenian Empire.

Joseph made many friends, and so he met; Princess Imperial Catherine, Laurentina Helvets, Georgiana Maria Novellen-Aldersberg, Joseph Alexander d'Arkent and many others. Joseph grew close to every single one of his friends and continued to spend years in their company. And so Joseph did not give up on it and joined the Imperial State Army at the age of 14, to prove himself worthy to the Empire by fighting in the Urguani-Oren war. During this war, Joseph was sent on a mission to secure Dobrov for the municipality had declared neutrality in the war, which was equal to treason and so he helped to put one of his distant cousins from House of Carrion in charge of Dobrov.

No matter who Joseph got into contact with he always was friendly to those who had known him from an early age - His friend and his relatives from the different houses in the Empire.

The 1st Battles

At the age of 13, Joseph began to approach officers of the Imperial State Army to become recruit for the war that was about to make its way to the Imperial borders.

Joseph had his first battle at 15 years old, he fought in the Battle of Cape Whitcombe; a naval battle that was fought during the period of the Urguani-Orenian War. Alongside his 76 year old grandfather, the two Sarkozics charged into battle to fight for the Empire and to kill until there was not a soul to hear of the tripartite coalition. And so when the battle had ended and the enemy had fled, the battle was won by the Holy Orenian Empire.

He was often accompanied by his many friends and many brothers - all on horseback as they charged into the enemy army. Joseph fought in the last battle which was named the Siege of Southbridge, the lands that were razed and sacked by the dwarves of Urguan.
