Pontifex Rokossovsky: Difference between revisions

Revision as of 13:44, 3 October 2025

Overview

Pontifex Rokossovsky, born Aleksandr Rokossovsky, was head of the Pontifical Church and ruler of the Pontifical States for four years from 3016 until his death in 3020. Rokossovsky was the first and to date only self proclaimed universalist to be elected Pontifex. His pontifical bull Evangelinz Universalis ended centuries of church isolation and began a rapid evangelization movement across the Doggerlands, resulting in a boom of parish construction and the opening of several new dioceses.

Rokossovsky's pontificate faces severe criticism for his use of church and state funds and his involvement with the Neu Corporate Republik. Rokossovsky allocated large portions of the treasury for his personal leisure, including a 200 million corporate mark superyacht, and the one billion corporate mark construction of the new pontifical palace. In 3020, Rokossovsky ordered the attack on Zaandam's harbor which led directly to the NCR-Ekklesiovsk Conflict, the deadliest and most destructive event in the history of the Pontifical States, and resulted in Republik federal rule of the Pontifical States until regaining independence at the end of the IDO-NCR war.

Character

Rokossovsky is reported to have been an extreme narcissist and egotist, yet was usually soft spoken. He openly brandished firearms and JetSwords on his person in public. Most notably, Rokossovsky lived with eight white siberian tigers that he raised in the pontifical palace, including his favorite named Jesus, which he let roam free on the property and could occasionally be seen taking on walks. Rokossovsky did much of his governing from his superyacht while cruising the North Sea.

-Pontifex Rokossovsky took office in 3016 and ruled for a short four years as Pontifex of Ecclesia and leader of the Church. Pontifex Rokossovsky is perhaps the most controversial Pontifex in modern history. He expanded the Pontifical Church from just Ecclesia and Lancastria, into nearly every country in the Doggerlands. His rule also saw the NCR-Ecclesian conflict, which decimated much of the city and brought Ecclesia into the Republik, ending centuries of foreign isolation. He died 11/2/3020, aged 64, of a massive heart attack in the newly built Pontifical Palace which he had commissioned.

-Pontifex Rokossovsky's name by birth is Aleksandr Rokossovsky. Rokossovsky chose to keep his own last name as his regal name. This practice is uncommon, but sometimes done to present Ecclesian native Slavic names with superiority over their Latin or English counterparts. It is the first instance of a Pontifex using this name.
-Prior to being elected Pontifex, Aleksandr Rokossovsky entered the seminary at age 18 and was ordained at age 23. He became Auxillary Bishop rather young, at age 30, and led the faithful for several decades. Upon the death of the late Pontifex Vasiliev III, Rokossovsky, aged 60, was elected to the throne in the 16th Conclave.

-The Pontifex was well known for having expensive tastes (as shown in his superyacht the ''Malinovka'') as well as brandishing firearms and swords at public events. His Holiness allowed many forms of news and media throughout the country and even gave an exclusive interview with the WBC, a large contrast with the majority of Pontificates which heavily restrict free press.
