'''Harold VI''' (Harold Fredericson; 20 April 674 – 31 March 748) was High Emperor from 1 September 741 until his death in 748. He was crowned on his ascension date, which was unusual, at the age of sixty-seven. Harold was the heir of [[Frederick I]] and Drusilla of Durinis. During his reign, the realm was governed by a regency council as he was extremely fragile and incapable by January 742. The council was led by his brother High Prince James of Kenbeck. Harold's reign was marked by economic problems and social unrest that in 744 erupted into riot and rebellion. An expensive war with the Order of Letonbeck over land rights caused Helstemple, Bucheapsea and Horscom to be ceded to them.
 
In August 747, at age 73, Harold fell extremely ill. When his sickness was discovered to be terminal, he and his council drew up a "Devise for the Succession" for the country's return to normalcy. He died in March 748.
