Early life and career
Claudius Verion was born the youngest son of Ludovic Verion and Arwen May Sherrinford-de Montfort. Ludovic's prospects in Shireroth had dwindled following the Oustfest Massacre of 1644, after which he traveled around the Imperial Republic, only to settle in the Verionist Republic after the Kalirion Fracture. Following the Great Disaster, Ludovic moved to Blackstone with his wife. Here Claudius was born in 1684. Claudius' early years were spend on Blackstone. At age 19, he moved to Cimmeria to study history at Lewis College. Here, Claudius became fascinated with the history of Northern Elwynn, and especially with the role that the Verion family has played in the last centuries. He also became determined to restore Elwynn to glory following the destruction of the Second Elwynnese Civil War and the Scouring. From then on, he embarked on a political journey, becoming first Major of Wolfraven, and then of Azshara, before being named Count of Cimmeria and Illumination in 1741.
Count of Cimmeria and Illumination
As Count, Claudius sought to re-introduced some Verionist principles of governance, but also maintaining the balance between the native groups that managed to gain more political influence in the wake of the Scouring and the collapse of much of central control, such as the Elfinshi and the Cimmerians. One of Claudius' more notable achievements was the re-building of the road network in the North, where he ensured that once again the main population hubs were well connected for automated travel.
