Siegmund I was the second eldest son of Emperor Reinhard I who ascended to the throne following the death of his elder brother, Prince Henry, who had no heirs. He had a slightly younger twin brother, Peter, claimant King of Telamon. Siegmund was actually much better prepared to be Emperor than his elder brother Henry. While Henry was discrete and seldom met with the powerful nobility, even antagonizing them, Siegmund became excellent friends with the Prince of Geharon, the Duke of Halifax, the Prince Laap and the Marquess Bruckenheim, the preeminent aristocratic and conservative leaders of the day.

  • Siegmund I was the second eldest son of Emperor Reinhard I who ascended to the throne following the death of his elder brother, Prince Henry, who had no heirs. He had a slightly younger twin brother, Peter, claimant King of Telamon. Siegmund was actually much better prepared to be Emperor than his elder brother Henry. While Henry was discrete and seldom met with the powerful nobility, even antagonizing them, Siegmund became excellent friends with the Prince of Geharon, the Duke of Halifax, the Prince Laap and the Marquess Bruckenheim, the preeminent aristocratic and conservative leaders of the day. This friendship served him well, indeed Emperor Sigmund came very close to be deposed by a rebellion, which was only prevented by Prince Klemens of Geharon's threats to call the whole monarchist world to arms in his famouns "monarchists of the world, unite!" speech. While he had always been more conservative than his father and elder brother, Siegmund's attitudes hardened because of the rebellion and he came to see his father's relative liberalism as a key contributing factor towards the casi-revolution. Although it is known that he used legal chanels to prosecute the traitors and revolutionaries after the revolt's failure (and then had them drawn, hung and quartered), it is also alleged that under his orders, the Inquisition, aided by the military and many royalist paramilitaries, killed countless revolutionaries, heretics and other subversives, both privately and in very public auto da fes, or public burnings. It is now known that during the last years of his life, Emperor Siegmund was struck with a very rare and very serious disease. He hardly left his bed for years and yet mysteriously survived, even though he was completely uncapable of continuing to assume his royal duties. Instead, his son, Prince Philip, acted as de facto regent.
