King Sigismund I

King Sigismund the First is the only son of Sir Ladislaus Alderbourg and his wife Victoria Bérain, and pretender to the throne of Likatonia. He is the candidate supported by the monarchist faction within The Council of Lords.

Sigismund was born in Metarie, East Bolton in 4337 and spent much of his youth following around his grandfather, Lord High Councillor Aemilius Bérain, as he navigated the byzantine politics and machiavellian power games in the house of representatives. Sigismund grew quite accustomed to the ever fluid allegiances of Likatonian politics, and before too long Sigismund found himself the youngest member ever of the house of representatives at age fifteen.

Education
At age twenty, Sigismund left his seat in the house of representatives to enroll in the St. Godfrey University under the name "John Vogel" where he studied philosophy, history and theology.
