Tiberius John Hartcold, 3rd Baron of Pyrmont (7th of the Sun's Smile, 1761 - 12th of Malin’s Welcome 1815) was the Imperial King of Arms for Oren and a staunch Sedanian nobleman. A loyal follower of House de Joannes during the Sedan Rebellion, he became close friend and one of the first vassals of Prince Louis I of Sedan and his subsequent heir Alexander de Joannes. He was executed in 1815, two years after the disastrous defeat of Sedan at the hands of the Holy Orenian Empire by order of its Emperor, John VIII [1].

Early life

Tiberius John Hartcold, born on 7th of the Sun's Smile, 1761, was the eldest son of Robert James Hartcold (c. 1736 - 21st of Grand Harvest, 1823) and his wife Antonia of Ves, granddaughter of Paul II, Duke of Adria. Hartcold succeeded his father in service to the House of Novellen, as the Imperial King of Arms, and through this service became close to his distant cousin, the future Prince Louis I of Sedan, and his sons Owyn and Alexander de Joannes.

Heraldic career

Hartcold succeeded his father as Imperial King of Arms in 1795. As a herald and King of Arms, Hartcold directed his energy into creating arms for each of the children borne between Anne I and Joseph II. With these grants of arms, Tiberius was able to make powerful connections within the Orenian societal structure, his key benefactors being Prince Philip, Duke of Crestfall and his youngest brother Prince Joseph, Count of Aldersberg alongside both of their subsequent households. Alongside arms for each of the Imperial Prince's and Princesses, Tiberius then too began working on arms for prominent nobleman eligible to be granted a coat of arms such as Peter Baldwin d’Arkent, 2nd Duke of Sunholdt and Dame Franziska Vimmark. A year later, Hartcold began working on The Orenorum Imperatrix Roll - a collection of the arms of the Holy Orenian Empresses from the years 1467-1796.

In the years leading up towards the Sedan Rebellion and his subsequent execution in 1815, Hartcold once again began using his time and energy in creating another roll of arms for the Holy Orenian Empire - this time being a collection of arms of Orenian landed nobleman within the Holy Orenian Empire during their time on Almaris. Unfortunately, at the time of the Baron's death the roll of arms remained unfinished and still remains unfinished to this day.

Death

After the defeat of Sedan during their rebellion on 14th of Horen’s Calling 1813, the remaining Sedanian loyalists, including Tiberius, went into hiding in the Kingdom of Hanseti-Ruska or Luciensburg [2]. With the death of Emperor Joseph II two years later, Pyrmont believed that things would be different under the late emperor's son and successor John VIII.

Affairs changed dramatically on 12th of Malin’s Welcome 1815, during a visit to the City of Providence when General Darkwood with support of Constables of the Ministry of Justice, accused Tiberius of having committed treason against Oren. Pyrmont was quickly arrested and imprisoned in the Bastion, where he underwent subsequent interrogations by Sir Charles Galbraith.

After a brief military tribunal with John VIII as the judge, Pyrmont was found guilty of treason against the empire and sentenced to summary execution [3]. Tiberius was gagged and dragged under armed guard from the Bastion to the Imperial Palace of Augustine, where an execution scaffold had been hastily erected in the palace courtyard. Unlike, Robert Helvets, a Sedanian loyalist who was executed by hanging, Pyrmont was forced onto his knees where a wig was nailed onto his head by Caspian d'Arkent which instantly ended the nobleman's life.
