Krasniy
Krasniy is an old Shirerithian who, by way of his frequent and lengthy absences, remains something of a noob despite having frequented Shireroth for over a decade.
Best known among those of a certain vintage for his exploits in Novaya Zemlya (or as it is known in wiki-land, Novaya Zemyla), he has been more latterly credited with stepping into Goldshire, and more specifically Lunaris, to avert the loss of those relatively ancient territories to the mists of history.
Krasniy's frequent absences during times of strife have left him relatively unscathed by the bitter feuds of the past, a stroke of luck giving him a less cynical attitude than his peers but also burdening him with huge chasms of historical ignorance and cringeworthy political naivety. His efforts tend to be of a cultural and artistic nature, his focus on these aspects keeping him somewhat distant from the Factional Conflict Du Jour and causing the battered participants of said conflicts to frequently flock to him as a neutral shoulder to cry on. This tendency has sometimes been known to get out of hand, to the point of him being installed as Kaiser.
Despite being an almost perfect replication of Vladimir Putin in his approach to affairs of state, Krasniy is well received by most Shirerithians when it becomes clear that his activity takes mostly harmless forms, like art and narrative, that can be ignored at leisure.
His writing can be readily identified by excruciatingly long sentences stuffed with commas and hyphens, overuse of words like "evident" and "undertake", and paragraphs liberally broken to the point of unreadability. His visual art is equally distinctive, being made in PS7 with a mortal aversion to vectors or appropriate font.
