[[Image:Hamilton.jpg|frame|left|Hamilton upon his election as Banker of the Confederacy of Fontan]]
Twin of [[Vita Family#Jefferson|Jefferson]], son of the elder [[Bishamon Family#Sejieda|Sejieda Bishamon]]. Began as a noble in [[Fontan]] because it was the realm of his family's home and there were nobles whom he recognized from the old family stories. Though soon after joining he was banned as part of the [[Timeline of East Continent/The Krimml Incident|Krimml Incident]] for speaking up for his beliefs. Hamilton was the last one to correspond with Alexi Pelevin. Joined the [[Confederacy of Fontan]] is now Marshal of the Confederate Army of Fontan and Banker of the Confederacy of Fontan. He has founded the newspaper [[Confederate Vindicator]].
 
 
Hamilton was eventually captured by the Fontanese in a Negev skirmish. He stayed behind while ordering those who could to move back to Fontan because he had used his time up briefing and debriefing scouts and doing civil work. After much discussion in the Fontan Assembly, he was spared execution and deported to the Colonies. At first he was gleeful he was spared execution, but soon became bitter when it was discovered the ship was headed to the [[Colonies]]. He joined [[Outer Tilog]] and become a knight of [[Hilly Holes]].
 
 
Hamilton escaped the Colonies and rejoined Fontan on the East Coast. His future is in peril. As requested by Knight Theron, he wrote a more precise history of the events leading up to his ban in [[Vita Family/Hamilton's Ban|Hamilton's Ban]]. He has since signed the [[Hamilton Vita, Dated September 1st 2008|Confederate Reinstitution Oath]]. His current oath to Oligarch is detailed in [[Vita Family/Hamilton's Oath|Hamilton's Oath]]. He recently wrote a more detailed history of his life entitled [[Vita Family/Fontanese Betrayal|Fontanese Betrayal]]. In a betrayal by a messenger related to a messenger that Hamilton killed, Hamilton lost his tongue and hands, which were sent to Count and Marshal Malfurion. He eventually regained them through unmentioned methods and has resumed usage of those parts, but it is said he lacks taste now.
 
 
===Far East===
 
Shortly before his one-month trial as per the Confederate Reinstitution Oath, he moved to [[Ohnar West]] with [[Artemesia Family/Jared|Jared Artemsia]] following. He became the Vice Marshal of the Second Army of West Ohnar before having wide popularity for Strategic Commander. Unfortunately, he was not chosen. He then became Duke of [[Akanos]] in an election against his Balthazar Bathgate(Minister of Justice, founding member, and his liege) and Julian Zulhir(first marshal, second general, Baron, and founding member). All lords voted in the referendum.
 
 
Duke Hamilton Vita grew disastisfied with Ohnar West due to its continued incompetence and random attacks upon his person and other innocent nobles, but when [[Akadian League/Letters|Letters against noble blood]] were written, it was the last straw.
 
 
On February 28, 2009, Duke Balthazar Bathgate of [[Ozrat]] placed a ban upon Duke Hamilton Vita due to a letter that [[Bedwyr Family#Jenred|King Jenred Bedwyr]] of [[Arcaea]] had leaked to Prime Minister Cornelius II Hsieh. As a result, Duke Hamilton changed his allegiance to [[Arcachon]], but they would not accept it. In a desperate bid, he seceded to form the [[Akadian League]] on March 2, 2009.
 
 
The war between the Akadian League and Ohnar West was a stalemate throughout its history. He was responsible for the Akadian League's foundation and early history. However, he had to go on a series of hunting trips(ooc: hitchhiking across country for 3.5 months). Eventually, he was betrayed from within and fled to [[Itorunt]]. More information on this event can be found within Akadian League's [[Akadian League#History|history]].

In under three and a half hour of arriving in Itorunt, Queen Morgana Lefanis had placed Hamilton Vita upon the Military Council. Within days, he was an ambassador. And in a matter of a few more days, he had refounded the [[Itorunt Informer]]. Within a month, he was Duke of [[Itorunt]] and began his plan to regain its glory.

Succumbing to a cold for a few days, the Itorunt City was lost to rogue forces and Hamilton fled north to Akesh Temple, where he found a claim. Suspiciously, the family lost thousands of gold around this time. Upset by his inquiry into Sanctus Acies' belief regarding the [[Cult of Kaylan]], he sacked their temple twice and closed it. This destroyed formerly excellent control, morale, and loyalty of the stronghold. Stepping down, he appointed Randwulf Driscol as Duke and then exiled himself. It was at this point, a split personality began to appear. The stronghold eventually went rogue and he found himself in Ibladesh, where he was banned. Next, he joined Fontan where Supreme Justice Duncan Atreides abused his power by banning Hamilton without a trial, as was law of Fontan.

Upon the ban's completion he joined Westmoor, where he was finally accepted, though often humorously mocked. His lord was Gregor Relak, someone Hamilton considered a friend from the days of the Confederacy. Hamilton's evidence was used in the banning of Monte Cristo(formerly Highguard) Tezokian from Westmoor. In a tournament held to honor Westmoor's first Queen, Evangeline Uceek, he outbought all with regard to rounds of alcohol. And he drank a round of each of his own, making him quite the fool.

When the tournament finished, Guis'wa TithOnanka of Fontan(beating Kenarth Anaris of Perdan in swordsmanship) thanked Hamilton for getting the opposition drunk. Hamilton replied with a demand for a share of the prize, but has not yet received it, furthering the insult from Fontan. Meanwhile, Screndt of Perdan beat Malek of Caligus in jousting.
 
 
===Hamilton's Wife Search===
 
Hamilton sent out a letter to East Continent in search of a wife:
 
 
 
"She must be young, pretty(a good shape is important), reasonable (a little education will suffice), noble-bred, chaste, and tender (I am enthusiastic about fidelity and fondness), good personality, and no love of money or nagging, for an economist and a nagger are equal evils. Politically I am indifferent of her opinions for I think I have arguments that will easily convert her to mine. As far as religion, moderate opinions will satisfy me. She must believe in a higher power, but hate the religions of multiple gods. Though I don't risk eternal damnation for greed, money is an essential ingredient to happiness in this world and having not much of my own, nor being little interested in earning much myself, it must be that my wife, if I get one, bring enough to satisfy her own extravagant desires. You will be pleased to know that I have no antipathy to the beauties of women, and that I a willing to accept their troubles.
 
 
 
If you haven't met a woman that fulfills these requirements, please spread news of my search publicly and no doubt you will hear of many competitors for most of my qualifications of a wife who be glad to be candidates for someone such as me.
 
  
In describing me to others, please describe me well as you would a friend. And please understate the size of my nose. It is rather large, but there is no need to reflect on it often or frequently."
+
His lord, Gregor Relak, became Duke of Westmoor. Banker of Westmoor Kerwyn Steele became Count of Morshes, whom appointed Hamilton Vita Pastry Baker of Morshes. Hamilton has used this position to his benefit with pushing to see rum cakes become the new Westmoorian currency.
  
Hamilton continues to search for a wife, but he is under the belief he has been rejected by three women so far. These are Countess [[Dubhaine Family/Moira|Moira Dubhaine]](Fontan), Dame [[McDowell Family/Kaylan McDowell|Kaylan McDowell]](Fontan), Marshal [[Kindon Family#Harmony|Harmony Kindon]](Arcaea), Count [[Indirik Family/Taylin|Taylin Indirik]] of [[Sanzzos]](later Prime Minister of Ohnar West). Within Itorunt, he married Kaylan McDowell, but due to the quick-paced events that occurred, they are unhappily married with Hamilton residing in Westmoor and Kaylan within Fontan.

[[Image:Jefferson.jpg|frame|right|Jefferson at study in the orchards of Bil Havil]]
Twin of [[Vita Family#Hamilton|Hamilton]], son of the elder [[Bishamon Family#Sejieda|Sejieda Bishamon]]. Began as a noble in [[Itorunt]] because the antique family book spoke highly of the place, but quickly discovered he couldn't live within a monarchy. He found a great liege in Dal, Duke of Xavax, though and tallied longer in Itorunt than planned because he felt loyalty to Dal for treating him so well. Eventually he emigrated to Beluaterra where he joined the [[Republic of Fwuvoghor]]. He ran a passive campaign for senatorship, and an active one for Minister(came in 2nd), but lost both. He was promoted to Marshal of the Fwuvoghor Madmen though.
 
 
Shortly after clearing the Republic of the monsters and undead that infested it during the Irombrozian tournament that celebrated Irombrozia's independence, Jefferson grew sick of the Republic. He stepped down saying, "<i>I am not a marshal, but a mere rubber stamp for General Zeteo. This is not intended to accuse General Zeteo of anything, but when told I was needed to serve the Republic I thought I would be doing more than merely rubber stamping orders. I believe General Zeteo should be the marshal himself. He has my full recommendations if anyone cares to accept them.Furthermore, this realm is too full of confusing treachery lately and I do not know who to trust. I mean no ill will to anyone here, but I believe that this Republic is not suited for me anymore. My apologies to everyone here. I grew fond of many of you. My liege, Maximiliaan, I hope you understand my reasons. I will now be heading for Melhed.</i>" He was further displeased when General Zeteo insulted him, but he chose to not respond to the insults.
 
 
===First Melite Experience===
 
As he had been conversing with Consul [[Unti Family/Aldo|Aldo Unti]] of [[Melhed]] and had been promised refuge there, he made his way there and swore an oath to [[Arya Family#Rah|Rah Arya]], Senator of Tepmona. He is currently satisfied with Melhed. A week into his time in Melhed, he won an election for senatorship of [[Bil Havil]]. He composed a [[Vita Family/Melhed Calendar|calendar]] for Melhed, though it has yet to be adopted by the Senate. Some time afterward he became Marshal of the Bearded Legion. He has acquired the unique item [[Tempus' Ring of Freedom]], which he values for its symbolism.
 
 
He began running in a friendly campaign against Consul Aldo Unti and eventually was pleasantly surprised to have won. He doesn't expect to be in office very long due to Aldo's popularity. As he expected, Aldo regained his position of Consul. Jefferson's tenure was well-run and much was done such as a deal with [[Thalmarkin]] regarding [[Orde]] and [[Qual]] that had long been an issue between the two realms, moving the law debate forward, and sending 2,000 gold to [[Old Grehk]]. In addition, he took a diplomatic journey to see an old friend and former Doge of [[Fronen]], [[Hyrhion Family|Cyrus Hyrhion]], along with esteemed nobles of [[Avalon]], his old home in the Republic of Fwuvoghor, and Prime Minister Strat Fender of [[Hetland]]. Now his energies are focused on the law debate.
 
 
He had to take a step away from public life due to the stress involved(ooc: three and a half months of hitchhiking). He saw his knight, Shalk Morlak, become Senator of his beloved region. He became the first non-Senator, Senate-elected ambassador, save for a short stint of removal due to Consul Aldo's poor memory. Farshar, a foreigner to Bil Havil, became Senator of Bil Havil. He ran against Consul Aldo again to offer an alternative, but so did Senator One and the opposition vote was split between them.
 
 
Eventually, Consul Aldo abdicated, but this time Senator One narrowly beat Jefferson for Consul. Jefferson ran again the next month, but Consul One doubled his vote. During this second month, Consul One illegally declared neutrality with Old Grehk and Jefferson pointed it out, but no one else seemed to care. Jefferson abstained from running for consul the third month.

In a trial against One Rogala, Jefferson was unfairly, and abusively, banned for heresy twice by One Rogala(ooc: OOC ban abuse by Josh Rogala). Meanwhile, One Rogala was declared a public enemy of Melhed and to be executed upon capture. Jefferson left to teach new nobility in Sirion in a self-imposed exile, but he couldn't stay away and quickly returned to Melhed. During his time in Sirion, he did learn of his brother's insane exploits and was deeply embarrassed.

Upon returning, he saw the rebuilding of the Senate and Old Melhed. Two weeks back into Melhed and he was elected Senator of Tepmona, a region he has long been associated with.

He is also working with Consuasor Marc's [[Assassin's Guild]].

===Monarchists Rebel===
===Early Treks===

Cypreana Rossini launched a rebellion to turn Melhed into a monarchy and succeeded. While opposing the rebellion, Jefferson remained neutral. He was quite upset with the arrest of a priest that damaged Melhed and nearly saw it internally collapse due to the monarchists' greed. The rebellion succeeded due to the ironic failure of their reasoning. They said Melhed did nothing, but it succeeded because Melhed was busy assisting Thalmarkin with its rogues. They said Melhed did nothing, but those senators who did join the rebellion never voted or discussed any issues themselves. Upon the rebellion's success, Jefferson began to devote himself to his guilds moreso.
Youngest son of the elder [[Bishamon Family#Sejieda|Sejieda Bishamon]] and almost a clone of his father in his personality and physical attributes. Began as a noble in [[Pian en Luries]] because he recognized a family member, Duke Diodorus Exiled, from old family friends from the antique family book. Found himself banned under a clerical order and before it was resolved was attacked by his own region, army, and duchy. Fled to [[Melodia]] where he recognized another member from another old family friend, but was imprisoned in the [[Grand Duchy of Fissoa]] along the way. Eventually he made it to Melodia where he faced some tests from one of the council members. The friend of the old family friends, Hireshmont II Vellos, defended him though. He never had a unit or gold while in Melodia, and not wanting to do paid work he could only visit the locals to assist the realm. He vowed never to partake in such low action again. Soon [[Paisly]] joined [[Madina]], and having already been in the republic of Melodia, didn't wish to be in a republic any longer.
 
  
He had loved the monarchy of Pian en Luries a lot, but was bitter about the realm's inability to fix a clerical mistake. He traveled through [[Shadovar]], befriending a knight there and acquiring permission, and made his way to [[Verus Luria]], but before making it found they had lost heart and given up. He sought permission to traveling through Shadovar again, but was refused permission, so his journey to the [[Springdale (Realm)|Empire of Springdale]] was lengthened greatly.

==Sejieda==
He finally arrived in the Empire of Springdale. He originally was a knight of Duke [[De La Fere Family/Cato|Cato De la Fere]] of [[Muspelheim]], but soon changed allegiance to Duchess Zyrrin of [[Springdale]]. He eventually became Vice Marshal and then Marshal of the [[Springdale (Realm)/The Sword and Shield|Sword and Shield]], strongest army of Dwilight. The Sword and Shield were even stronger than all but [[Morek]] at its peak and only 2k CS behind Morek(which included militia). He has written a series of military letters that he hopes become known as the [[/Sejieda Doctrine Letters|Sejieda Doctrine Letters]]. They are occasionally edited with more updated information, but the general idea behind them remains true. Emperor [[Arya Family#Neel|Neel Arya]] later insulted Duchess Zyrrin, Duke Cato, and Marshal Sejieda. Emperor Neel broke many [[Springdale (Realm)/The Sword and Shield#Marshal Lineage|traditions]] including removal Sejieda from command. Soon the [[Springdale (Realm)/Guardians of Springdale|Guardians of Springdale]] were created and Sejieda was reinstated as marshal.

His fiance returned and his duke gave him a most enticing offer. Meanwhile, Donghaiwei seceded to form [[Xinhai]], leaving Morek without their original duchy, but the duchy of secularists. This significantly changed their political orientation. Eventually, Duke Sammael's offer came to existence with the foundation of [[Libero Empire]], a realm whose history Sejieda has kept chronicled. With the empire, he moved from marshal to Field Marshal. It was shortly after this that it was announced that Alanya Costella was his fiance; soon afterward, Sejieda helped his lover become Queen of Libero Empire. At this point he became the Royal Marshal.
  
===Morek===
+
He first oversaw the war against Morek with an empasis on marshals conducting it themselves. However, after supreme disappointment with Marshal Kniva Gothicus' attack against Nifelhold, he pressured him to step down, but left it to the marshal's own choice. Later, Sejieda oversaw the war effort by Libero Empire against Xinhai. After a poor battle due to confusing orders and poor settings by Marshal Hawk Vozah, Sejieda was pressured into taking more action into his hands. After attempting to coordinate with allies(Raivan Empire and Aquilegia), who were uncooperative, Libero Empire left the war. Sejieda began overseeing the expansion of Libero Empire to bolster its own strength. It was now he began to put more responsibility within the marshals' hands.
He became part of Morek when Springdale Duchy, under Duke Sammael Haine, changed allegiance. The [[Morek/Guardians of Springdale|Guardians]] were also transferred to Morek. He ran for Ordermarshal that month, but while gaining several Morekian votes it was mostly a split between Springdale Duchy voting for him and [[Donghaiwei|Donghaiwei Duchy]] voting for incumbent and earl [[Stormcrow Family/Medugnatos|Medugnatos Stormcrow]].
 
  
He continued to involve himself in Morekian politics to oppose the persecution of Torenists(as Sejieda was one) by Sanguis Astroism. He assisted Executor Sammael with the founding of [[Dwilight University]]. Eventually, he was rewarded with the position of Dean of Military Affairs and temporary Dean of Students. Sejieda eventually found a secret lover and became engaged. Unfortunately, his fiance disappeared. This, in conjunction with several other events, caused him to reconsider his life. He withdrew from politicking and concerned himself with military matters and blatant opinions rather than careful manuevering.

Hamilton

East Island

Hamilton upon his election as Banker of the Confederacy of Fontan

In under three and a half hour of arriving in Itorunt, Queen Morgana Lefanis had placed Hamilton Vita upon the Military Council. Within days, he was an ambassador. And in a matter of a few more days, he had refounded the Itorunt Informer. Within a month, he was Duke of Itorunt and began his plan to regain its glory.

However, he and Grand Marshal Epaminondas started a serious of arguments that resulted in a duel. As is usual, insults flew from Hamilton's pen with such gems as "Your impotence on the battlefield is only matched by your experience in bed, so my spies report. Finally, I will serve Itorunt by ensuring your corpulent mother is chained to the walls of Itorunt City as another level of fortification!". He wrote it quite quickly. In retrospect, he meant "inexperience in bed". Shortly before the duel, he ordered all the rulers of East Continent to kill Caligus for their decades of treachery and betrayal.

Insanity

Surviving the duel, Hamilton began to lose support within Itorunt. Ibladesh soon sacked Itorunt City, and Hamilton was lost to the depths of insanity. Eventually convinced Regina Morgana was undermining his power, he seceded to form the Protectorate of Obsidian Islands and launched a tournament with confused reasons(celebrate Caligus' Death, his wedding to Kaylan McDowell, the victory of Obsidian Islands etc.). During the coming days as ruler of the Protectorate of Obsidian Islands, his policies made little sense and he continually insulted fellow rulers.

Succumbing to a cold for a few days, the Itorunt City was lost to rogue forces and Hamilton fled north to Akesh Temple, where he found a claim. Suspiciously, the family lost thousands of gold around this time. Upset by his inquiry into Sanctus Acies' belief regarding the Cult of Kaylan, he sacked their temple twice and closed it. This destroyed formerly excellent control, morale, and loyalty of the stronghold. Stepping down, he appointed Randwulf Driscol as Duke and then exiled himself. It was at this point, a split personality began to appear. The stronghold eventually went rogue and he found himself in Ibladesh, where he was banned. Next, he joined Fontan where Supreme Justice Duncan Atreides abused his power by banning Hamilton without a trial, as was law of Fontan.

Upon the ban's completion he joined Westmoor, where he was finally accepted, though often humorously mocked. His lord was Gregor Relak, someone Hamilton considered a friend from the days of the Confederacy. Hamilton's evidence was used in the banning of Monte Cristo(formerly Highguard) Tezokian from Westmoor. In a tournament held to honor Westmoor's first Queen, Evangeline Uceek, he outbought all with regard to rounds of alcohol. And he drank a round of each of his own, making him quite the fool. When the tournament finished, Guis'wa TithOnanka of Fontan(beating Kenarth Anaris of Perdan in swordsmanship) thanked Hamilton for getting the opposition drunk. Hamilton replied with a demand for a share of the prize, but has not yet received it, furthering the insult from Fontan. Meanwhile, Screndt of Perdan beat Malek of Caligus in jousting.

His lord, Gregor Relak, became Duke of Westmoor. Banker of Westmoor Kerwyn Steele became Count of Morshes, whom appointed Hamilton Vita Pastry Baker of Morshes. Hamilton has used this position to his benefit with pushing to see rum cakes become the new Westmoorian currency.

Jefferson

Second Melite Experience

In a trial against One Rogala, Jefferson was unfairly, and abusively, banned for heresy twice by One Rogala(ooc: OOC ban abuse by Josh Rogala). Meanwhile, One Rogala was declared a public enemy of Melhed and to be executed upon capture. Jefferson left to teach new nobility in Sirion in a self-imposed exile, but he couldn't stay away and quickly returned to Melhed. During his time in Sirion, he did learn of his brother's insane exploits and was deeply embarrassed.

Upon returning, he saw the rebuilding of the Senate and Old Melhed. Two weeks back into Melhed and he was elected Senator of Tepmona, a region he has long been associated with. Within a week, he founded the Institute of Diplomacy, a guild devoted to increasing ambassador communication and offering services teaching diplomatic skills and resolving disputes. He is also working with Consuasor Marc's Assassin's Guild.

Monarchists Rebel

Cypreana Rossini launched a rebellion to turn Melhed into a monarchy and succeeded. While opposing the rebellion, Jefferson remained neutral. He was quite upset with the arrest of a priest that damaged Melhed and nearly saw it internally collapse due to the monarchists' greed. The rebellion succeeded due to the ironic failure of their reasoning. They said Melhed did nothing, but it succeeded because Melhed was busy assisting Thalmarkin with its rogues. They said Melhed did nothing, but those senators who did join the rebellion never voted or discussed any issues themselves. Upon the rebellion's success, Jefferson began to devote himself to his guilds moreso.

Sejieda

Libero Empire

His fiance returned and his duke gave him a most enticing offer. Meanwhile, Donghaiwei seceded to form Xinhai, leaving Morek without their original duchy, but the duchy of secularists. This significantly changed their political orientation. Eventually, Duke Sammael's offer came to existence with the foundation of Libero Empire, a realm whose history Sejieda has kept chronicled. With the empire, he moved from marshal to Field Marshal. It was shortly after this that it was announced that Alanya Costella was his fiance; soon afterward, Sejieda helped his lover become Queen of Libero Empire. At this point he became the Royal Marshal.

He first oversaw the war against Morek with an empasis on marshals conducting it themselves. However, after supreme disappointment with Marshal Kniva Gothicus' attack against Nifelhold, he pressured him to step down, but left it to the marshal's own choice. Later, Sejieda oversaw the war effort by Libero Empire against Xinhai. After a poor battle due to confusing orders and poor settings by Marshal Hawk Vozah, Sejieda was pressured into taking more action into his hands. After attempting to coordinate with allies(Raivan Empire and Aquilegia), who were uncooperative, Libero Empire left the war. Sejieda began overseeing the expansion of Libero Empire to bolster its own strength. It was now he began to put more responsibility within the marshals' hands.

Kylaine

Returning to her family's ancestral homeland, she began to make many friends amongst the nobility of the Cagilan Empire and was even honored enough to gain a vassalship in her family's old home of Alaise. From there, she began to spread the message of Naicatoism within the empire and abroad, at the final tournament of Duke Zog of Chocxal in Talerium. Duke Zog died days later. Meanwhile, Earl Fulco, a fellow believer in the Naicato, built an Academy of the Naicato to serve as an institution of learning for believers and non-believers alike. Kylaine serves as the Messenger of the Naicato, transmitting their teachings to the nobility.

Fame

The Vita family is a continuation of the Bishamon Family, but their fame must be reacquired in order to prove themselves. (OOC: As a member of the development team, I can't record the fame in the same way as others because it would give knowledge of fame away.)

  • Jefferson: 9 individual, 3 family
  • Hamilton: 5 individual, 3 family
  • Sejieda: 4 individual, 3 family
  • Total: 21
    • Game officially says 23, but 2 are bugs.
