THEODEN SEAWATCHERBIOGRAPHY
Born into a minor noble house of pre-Imperial Sattar on the planet of Neusattar, Seawatcher rose to become Jarl of Lonnblad and was a prominent leader of resistance to the Vong occupation. His warband was contacted early by JIAN operatives and provided with basic training, radio equipment and other supplies to improve their effectiveness. This enabled Seawatcher to engage in a guerilla campaign that kept many of his people alive until the end of the occupation. |
When the planet was liberated and then annexed by the Kuribayashi Shogunate in 2430 AT, Seawatcher's territorial rights were recognised and he was given the rank of hatamoto under the Jade Imperial feudal system, becoming a member of the samurai aristocracy and enrolling in further education including economics and a crash course in modern sciences. His guerilla warband was meanwhile used to form the core of the 31st Regiment.
During the Trathiran Revolt Seawatcher was at the Jade Palace and joined Takara's impromptu bodyguard, escaping aboard her personal flagship, the IJN Fury of Saigo. Remaining with the Exiles as a communications specialist, he served under General Matomoro Kanbei during the Raid on Gau III, and following the Restoration chose to join the military as an officer of the Jade Marines.

Rejoining the 31st Regiment as a Major, he served as an HR specialist during the Julia System Campaign and, following the immolation of Walpha, was a member of the Imperial delegation to the International Tribunal at Panthera. When the tribunal cleared the IJN of wrongdoing, Commander Kain of the Xanthiri Republics challenged the Jade commander, Admiral Katzenhaftm to a duel of honour. Due to Katzenhaft's advanced age, Seawatcher stood in for the Admiral. Seawatcher was victorious in the duel, beheading Commander Kain after being injured by one of Kain's throwing knifes.
During the Concordiat war, Seawatcher was given the brevet-rank of Lieutenant-Colonel following losses incurred during the failed Imperial campaign towards Lundene and was assigned to General Terusada's staff. During the Battle of York Terusada led the surviving Jade forces to defeat a sizeable Concordiat vanguard composed primarily of Jovepenian light infantry. This stalled the |
Concordiat advance long enough that Redemption-American reinforcements were able to land and counter-attack. Seawatcher was credited with maintaining the morale of the Jade defenders through the use of propaganda, his advocacy for improved defensive fortifications, and his personal presence in forward positions where he gave impromptu speeches at risk to himself.
After the war, Seawatcher was elevated to the rank of Daimyo and given overlordship of Neusattar Province.
