Jackson Darrall

'Shut the fuck up.'

Jackson Darrall was the second & longest-serving prime minister, and also the third & shortest-reigning emperor.

外貌 | Appearance

Darrall is of an above average stature, with prominent freckles across his cheeks. He has a smaller nose that causes his glasses to often fall down. He has brown hair that fluctuates between periods of being long & short.

性格 | Personality

On the surface, Darrall is a well-mannered, mature, and intelligent individual who helped drive Jolinph into its own mature state. He has been described as having a sense of humor and an interest in history.

However, below the façade, Darrall can be rather selfish, and one of whom doesn't take much to anger. This is not necessarily a bad thing however, as this has led to Darrall's passion for certain projects, and his insistence on having some card to play in even the most dire situations.

Darrall no longer associates himself with Jolinph, seeing it as a failed state, proven when it was nuked off the face of the earth. Upon hearing of the revival, he came back to see what has changed, but would be met by mobs. Angered, and never wanting to be there in the first place, Darrall migrated to the US where he stays now.

关系 | Relationships

Lin Jova — Never really good friends, but still partners nonetheless; helped build the beginnings of Jolinph together though relationship now close to non-existent

Boren Young — From enemies to lovers, Darrall would form a close bond with Young after he handed his position over to him; they continue to be in contact to this day

Nikio Washing — Met on good terms, almost immediately understanding each other; Darrall would come to betray Jolinph for Washing, but eventually returned to Jolinph before leaving again

Isain Winters — Darrall's successor, kicking him out of office; naturally, they aren't on good terms, especially considering the fight between the two for the position of prime minister was a close fought one that toppled Darrall's multiple consecutive terms

Frederick Manes — A close advisor of Darrall, their relationship was at its peak when Manes handed the role of emperor over to him; Manes is the only Jolinese Darrall still mourns

Carl Notan — A good friend of Darrall he met in school; Darrall would choose him to be the next emperor after quickly losing interest

历史 | History

Early Life

Born into an upper-class family in the United States of America, both of his parents worked in medicine. Pressured to follow in their footsteps, Darrall was put through harsh lessons. Despite eventually becoming a doctor, he would be heavily dissatisfied with this way of life — often witnessing the deaths of many patients. He would abandon his parents' plan and flee to Jolinph, a shining light of opportunity in his eyes.

First Steps

Arriving in Jolinph, he would be provided a government job working in a hospital. However, that's exactly what he was trying to escape from. Thus, government officials decided to make him a governor, and from there he would rise through the ranks into Jolinph's royal court. However, it wasn't until the Republic was formed that Darrall became prime minister.

Prime Minister of Jolinph

Originally losing to Young in an election, he would resign after not even a fortnight, giving the position to Darrall. Serving as prime minister, he would bring about great industrialization efforts, transforming Jolinph into a modern state almost rivaling that of Distopiya.

Betrayal & Exile

However, it would be found it Darrall had joined the side of the Distopiyans after the First Distopiyan-Jolinese War, becoming disillusioned with the increasing control the 'ceremonial' king Jova began to have following wartime. After losing an election to Winters, Distopiya would attempt to reinstate him into power, revealing the whole ordeal. After another war with Distopiya, many called for Darrall's execution. However, Jova was moderate, and decided to just exile him instead.

Second Emperor

After a year of exile, Darrall would return back to the Jolinese government, though now only in local administration. However, after the turbulent times of post-Jova Jolinph, Darrall would find himself as the new emperor of Jolinph. This position would be short-lived, however, as parliament would impeach him due to his anti-war rhetoric while the Final War was approaching.

Nuking

Residing in the outskirts of St. Jolisburg at the time, Darrall would survive but suffer severe burns & brain damage following the nuking. He has since lost most of his memory regarding Jolinph, and is described as being more toxic than before. Best wishes for his recovery.
