Patrik Djupvik

Patrik Djupvik (born 1643 AN, aged 88 years) is a Shirerithian-born Hurmu senator (1690– ). He belongs to the Traditionalist faction. He holds both Elwynnese and Hurmu nationality.

The son of Valdemar Djupvik (1609– ) and Trine Katterud (1612– ), his paternal grandsfather Nilu Sólason being a Hurmu émigré, Patrik Djupvik was born in Shirekeep, but grew up in a conservative household of good standing in Konungsheim (Elijah's Rest). Having always been interested in politics but outshone by his aunt Liv Djupvik, he led a quiet and discrete life in Normark, mainly focusing on business in the banking and insurance sectors. In 1689, he decided he would try help his ancestral country by providing his financial skills to it. By 1690, a traditionalist set of members of the Order of the Holy Lakes nominated him to their list for the senate election. He was subsequently elected to the Senate the same year. He is considered a fiscally conservative member of the Senate who scrutinises every single bill for its effects on the taxpayer. Reelected in 1695.

Married to Mikaela Klaron (born 1645), he has two sons, Samuel (1668) and Johannes (1670). The younger of these two has caused quite a few scandals in Normark.

Patrik enjoys spending time with his five grandchildren as well as hiking.
