Harald Gille

Sire:Unknown

Notable Traits: Can and does summon kindred to attend him for no reason other than to ensure that they come when called, and are inured to this habit. A summons that is not answered often results in the release of the Scourge, under the logic that anyone who resist the call has reason to fear for their life, therefore must be guilty of something.

Titles: Prince of Armidale

Territory: New England Domain

Information Known by Kindred Society

The power upon the throne. The Prince has ruled the court without significant opposition since 1874, with this length of unchallenged reign it is no surprise that he considers the domain his own personal territory. In years past he has physically attended court only twice a year, perhaps it is simply hubris, but in over a hundred years there have been no serious threats to his praxis.

For almost 100 years the Prince was a devoted lay-member of the Sanctified church, attending each mass and obviously favouring the Sanctified to a level that made the Crones more than uncomfortable. As part of this tradition, those kindred rendered into torpor as punishment were delivered to the Bishop for safe keeping for the duration of their enforced slumber.

While some may grumble at the iron fisted approach they do so quietly, for the Prince is feared not just for his mercurial moods, but for his legendary near-omniscience. The only point at which the Prince is willing to compromise on his law is when it comes in direct conflict with the will of the Priscus, there has been a balance of power for over a hundred years and while no individual Priscus is a real threat, to threaten one is to threaten all, and they will respond to that threat. Not even the Prince is mad enough to challenge 5 powerful kindred that could possibly mobilise the entire court against him.

While a true believer and member of the First Estate, Harald has stepped back from the day to day machinations of the Invictus, believing that his role as Prince requires a certain distance from covenant business.

Quotes

Ephesians 1:11

In him we were also chosen, having been predestined according to the plan of him who works out everything in conformity with the purpose of his will.

2 Thessalonians 2:13-15

13 But we are bound to give thanks alway to God for you, brethren beloved of the Lord, because God hath from the beginning chosen you to salvation through sanctification of the Spirit and belief of the truth:

14 Whereunto he called you by our gospel, to the obtaining of the glory of our Lord Jesus Christ.

15 Therefore, brethren, stand fast, and hold the traditions which ye have been taught, whether by word, or our epistle.

James 2:14

14 What doth it profit, my brethren, though a man say he hath faith, and have not works?

1 Peter 2:18-21

18 Servants, be subject to your masters with all respect, not only to the good and gentle but also to the unjust.

19 For this is a gracious thing, when, mindful of God, one endures sorrows while suffering unjustly.

20 For what credit is it if, when you sin and are beaten for it, you endure? But if when you do good and suffer for it you endure, this is a gracious thing in the sight of God.

21 For to this you have been called.
