Cosmo Allen Ricardo Lore X (born 19 June 2978) is a Balancín merchant and trade unionist. He has served as an independent Member of Parliament (MP) since 3024 having been elected to represent the Merchant Council at the 3024 Balancín general election. A traditionally left-wing figure, Lore served as Deputy General Secretary of Partido Socialista. Since the reformation of the monarchy and the establishment of the Pawn-Rook party system, he has been an independent, advocating for worker's rights and free trade.
Cosmo is the head of House Cosmo, a noble house that has existed since the days of the Madrilene Hope. It was one of the first four, alongside House Murcia, that established the Kingdom of the Rock in 2640. Since then, House Cosmo has struggled to become notable in Balancín politics. They don't have official handholdings or titles, aside from the ancient honourary title "Lord of Steel" - a reference to the steel-based currency that was prominent in the 2600s. Since the death of his father in 3000, Lore has been the head of house.
House Cosmo is the only remaining noble house in the Balancín world to continue the use of the Aragornian naming system. The Aragornian system uses surnames, or family names, first, with given names coming later. Lore's christian name is Allen Ricardo. The name "Lore" comes from the 2789 merger of House Cosmo and House Lore. Thus, the legal surname of members of House Cosmo is "Lore", and their first name (in the Aragornian tradition) is "Cosmo".
