Jordan I was King of Timeria from 900 CE until his death in 922. Jordan is best known for uniting Timeria, founding Infinity, and the Kirvista Wars. Even after uniting Timeria he continued to support Timeria's warrior culture. During the Kirvista Wars Jordan knighted his most succesful officers which went to form The Knights of Ash. The Knights of Ash are responsible for the still popular Through Ash Ritual.
Domestically Jordan was a humble ruler, living by the Warrior Code established before his time. He fostered an egalitarian society by emphasizing the importance of the warrior and everyone’s role in supporting them. Jordan also instituted the Warrior Codes which created a set of rules and regulations warriors must abide by while also pulling all Timerian warriors under the crown. All clans and their warriors now swore loyalty to King Jordan and the people of Timeria as opposed to being loyal to their chief or clan.
Historically Jordan has been described as tall and lean with dreadlocks that dropped to his hips. His eyes were a dull brown color and had strong facial features.
Early years
Jordan I, born in April 870 in a village on Lake Lotus, was the only child of his parents, who both passed away when he was very young. He was raised by his grandfather, a respected figure within the community, who imparted the values and skills essential for leadership and survival in a turbulent era. Growing up in a warrior culture, Jordan's early years were marked by rigorous training and immersion in the clan-based conflicts that defined the region. As he matured, Jordan was increasingly involved in the clan warfare that characterized the era. His early training under the Uchiha clan honed his skills in combat and strategy, preparing him for future leadership. By his late teens, Jordan had established a reputation for his tactical acumen and bravery. He began organizing and leading raids along the Bezdekia Road, demonstrating his ability to unite disparate groups under a common cause.
Warrior Era
Jordan I's reputation as a formidable warrior began to solidify in his late teens, when he led numerous raids under the Uchiha crest. His strategic brilliance and valor in battle were evident as he orchestrated successful operations along the Bezdekia Road, a key trade route that was frequently contested by rival clans. Jordan’s leadership during these raids not only secured vital resources and territory but also demonstrated his ability to unite and lead diverse groups under a common cause. During this period, Jordan’s influence grew significantly. His prowess in battle and his skill in diplomacy allowed him to forge alliances with other clans, slowly expanding his sphere of influence. His tactical innovations and ability to manage complex military operations were instrumental in his rise through the ranks of the Uchiha clan. By his early twenties, Jordan had become a respected leader within his clan, known for his unyielding determination and strategic mind. Jordan’s rise to prominence was not merely due to his battlefield success; it also stemmed from his capacity to navigate the intricate clan politics of the time. His growing reputation as a capable leader earned him the trust and support of key clan chiefs, setting the stage for his future endeavors in unifying Timeria. His leadership in organizing and executing raids highlighted his potential as a unifier of the warring clans, laying the groundwork for his eventual rise to power. As Jordan continued to demonstrate his capabilities as a warrior and leader, his influence extended beyond military achievements. His involvement in various diplomatic efforts and alliances showcased his strategic acumen and vision for a unified Timeria. This period was crucial in shaping Jordan’s future role as a unifier and leader of Timeria, marking him as a key figure in the region’s history.
Jordan’s relationship with Otito Senju and his daughter, Islea Senju, played a significant role in his rise to power and the unification of Timeria. Initially, Jordan sought the hand of Islea Senju in marriage, but his status as a non-chief presented a significant obstacle. During this period, marriage alliances were a crucial element of political and clan dynamics, and the ability to marry a chief’s daughter was often reserved for those of high status or significant influence.
Historians speculate that Jordan’s aspirations to marry Islea were tied to his ambitions of rising to the level of chief. His strategic prowess and growing influence among the clans suggested that he was either on the verge of achieving a chief’s status or was planning to secure it before the marriage could take place. The union with Islea was not only a personal ambition but also a strategic move to solidify alliances and gain the support of the powerful Senju clan.
