John Stockwell

When John was five his parents, both great navy officers, were killed in by space pirates for unknown reasons. As a result, he was raised by his grandparents. They were strict but made him a great tactician and politician, he joined the navy flying through the ranks to admiral. He saw that, in his opinion, the current guilds were not doing a good job in improving defence and created a party to help the empire in prove defence. He believes that all beings are equal and deserve a chance to vote who will be leading them. He heavily supports expansion and a large military. And he believes that nobody should be afraid to start a coup if they are not happy. He is cheery and confident man who can be strict if need be but is happy to support other parties bills if he likes it. He believes in press freedom and workers safety. He has a wife and kids. He has a clinical problem with nerves, he has been prescribed pills to help.

Stockwell headed his own guild, the United Council of Military Officers (founded in 2195), until it merged with the NLG under the Vaerian Liberal Guild in 2200. That same year, He was appointed by Emperor Carolus de Mérode to the position of Arch-Chancellor, which he held until 2206. In 2211, he briefly held the title of Grandmagister after Samuel Hollerzollen stepped down. John Stockwell was granted the title of Duke of Goltunheim and even the Empire's first colony was named after his family. In 2221, in the aftermath of the Meiji Crisis, Duke Stockwell was voted in by the Diet as acting Regent until a new Emperor could be elected.
