Isor Nebuchadnezzarion Isor (Elw: Исор Небуқанеззарион Исор, Isor Nebuqanezzarion Isor; born Исор Небуқанеззарион Верион, Isor Nebuqanezzarion Verion), is an Elwynnese-born ex-nobleman. He was the Governor of Chryse from 1683 until his overthrow during the Battle of Chryse in 1690, and Lord Protector of the United Benacian Republic for a short whole in 1685.

Personal biography

9.XII.1685, his engagement to Ayesha al-Osman was announced. They married on the Festival of the Undaunted Atos (coinciding with the Nazarene Festival of the Holy Birth) on 12.II.1686.

On 8.X.1686, Isor left the House of Verion and founded his own house, named after himself ("House of Isor"). At the same time, his wife was announced pregnant. She gave birth to a set of twins on 19.XIV.1687, which he named Isor Osman Isorion Isor and Ardashir Kalir Isorion Isor.

On 10.II.1689, having grown bored of his wife, he announced his intention to contract a second marriage with Aliande Laegel, the granddaughter of Avranel, the Lady Laegel. This caused the immediate self-imposed exile of Ayesha and the children. Towards the end of the year, Isor announced that he would not marry Avranel should Ayesha return with the children before the end of the year. Instead, he promised the people a "union grander than ever imagined".

On 5.XV.1689, Isor's medical records were leaked to Elwynnese press. Despite Isor being in complete health, with a higher-than-average intelligence, they caused him embarrassment, as the records showed that Isor had been complaining about the size of his penis (12 cm) and that he was actually shorter than the 168 cm he claimed (he was 164 cm tall). Before Isor could arrest his medical team, they had travelled to Upper Elwynn and sought asylum there.

Political career

In 1683, Isor was appointed by Supreme Director Viqh to succeed Jana Al-Basani as Governor of Chryse.

After hearing of the formation of the Franco-Batavian Empire in mid 1684, Isor invited the Magistrate of Kasterburg, Reginald de Montford, for discussions. Although De Montford chose not to say what had been discussed, Isor announced a few days later to the Chryse Assembly his intention of merging Chryse and Kasterburg into one state within Gran Verionia. In his view, a stronger Verionist consolidation of resources and powers was necessary, lest Kasterburg and Chryse would too easily be influenced by the Franco-Batavian imperialists.

With the collapse of the Gran Verionian state in early 1685, Isor Verion took charge of the situation in Benacia and declared the United Benacian Republic independent under his stewardship as Lord Protector.

On 24.IV.1685 AN Isor received the Loyal Address of the loyalist Verionist officers in the garrison of the city of Chryste and acclamation of the crews of the ships of the Iron Fleet in its harbour, who thereafter loudly petitioned and clamoured for him to accept the titles of Captain-General of the United Benacian Defence Force (Bat: Verenigde Benacische Weermacht), and Admiral-General of the Free Batavian Navy (Bat: Vrije Bataafsche Marine). The tumult continued throughout the night until, at length, Isor Verion appeared on the balcony of the Hotel Astoria in downtown Chryse and - seemingly moved by genuine emotion - he proclaimed to the assembled soldiery milling about below that he would accept the burden placed upon him to become their Captain-General. Thereafter he donned the crimson sash that would denote his new rank and announced, to deafening cheers, an accession donative to be paid to all men of the forces who had remained loyal to the Verionist banner in Benacia during its darkest times. Celebrations continued in the bars, brothels, and casinos of the city for the next three days unabated.

Something about his overthrow in 1690.

Arrest and trial

After the Battle of Chryse Isor had been taken into protective custody by the UDF and airlifted to the UDF Facility Dragonsfold in eastern Elwynn for medical treatment and psychiatric evaluations. On the basis of these evaluations Isor was declared to be a ward of the state and received an appointed UDF förvaltare (administrator), Örlogskapten Einarr Patriksson, from the Union Medical Corps.

On 5.XII.1690, the date of the signing of the Chryse Protection Treaty, Örlogskapten Einarr Patriksson received a Writ of Summons for Isor Isor, issued by the Court of Star Chamber, commanding the attendance of the latter at proceedings opened into accusations of crimes against humanity, committed by Isor in his capacity as Viceroy of Chryse against the Tarr peoples, during and after their expulsion from Graecia.

Personality

Isor has been described as narcissistic yet insecure. He appears introverted and intelligent. He speaks Istvanistani, Elw, and Martino (with the latter learnt in early adulthood). He does not speak Batavian. Despite not having lived in, or even visited, Elwynn since two months after his birth, he considers himself "culturally Elwynnese".

Longstanding rumour had it that, prior to his marriage, he had never had a sexual relationship (i.e. is a "virgin"), though he acted like a playboy in night clubs before named Governor of Chryse.
