Kaisership (1617–1620)
Ryker ruled as the 144th Kaiser of Shireroth under the regnal name of Redquill. He oversaw the Kildare Incident and established the Imperial Bloodline of Redquill.
Kaiser Redquill began his reign immediately prior to Kildare's Declaration of Independence and controlled the movement which followed as best he could. No war was ever declared or fought between Shireroth and the Apollonian Republic of Shireroth's East (A.R.S.E.) under this Kaiser's rule, though a rogue MoMA did briefly take a refurbished fleet against Kildare outside of Kaiseral order. He created an entirely new Cabinet with the exception of MiniInt, Janus Eadric, and sought their council on most issues regarding the situation in the East and elsewhere.
On account of his aversion to aggressive retaliations during his reign, he has become known to history as "Redquill the Meek". He maintained that his position was an impossible one and that his actions were the most prudent he could have exercised. Though he did give his throne to a 150-year-old hermit woman, so maybe he wasn't all there.
Ruler of Goldshire (1614–1623, 1629–1632, 1650–1656)

Coma, death, and later consciousness
Ryker entered a coma in 1656. Awoke again first in 1659 with some clear cognitive disfunction however. Appointed nonetheless to Arbiter of the Imperial Judex in 1666, a post he held until 1669. In 1671, he died, however his consciousness was transferred to an operating system, Ryker OS, which briefly inhabited Villy Esposito in a trial as to whether a human body could hold the consciousness again.
Founded the Sovereign Confederation in 1671–1672. Had the SC join the Elwynnese Republic ten years later.
