Auberon Reich

Auberon Reich is currently a minor character in The Coming Storm, and the wealthiest man in Xervia.

Akio
Unnecessarily troublesome. Auberon isn't the fondest of Akio, but he's the one man he can relate to the most. The two share something of a common bond over the moral of justice, if not honor and order. When he finds Akio to be "misbehaving," usually Auberon will step in to reprimand him.

The Black Talons
Honestly, they're cannon fodder in his eyes. Auberon couldn't care any less about the likes of the Black Talons. They seem weak in his eyes, and lack the proper discipline needed to become a well balanced organization.

Siren Academy
They seem extremely vulnerable to him. Auberon feels Siren Academy is still underdeveloped and has a ways to go before it can be considered any kind of notable institution. Sometimes when he stops by, he will take a look around and "straighten up the place" with his means of discipline. Naturally, Professor Wolfgang doesn't like his practices, but has no choice but to follow along with it.

Trivia

 * Auberon's full name is of German origin. Auberon means "noble" or "great bear," and Reich means "empire." Therefore, his full name means "noble empire" or "empire of the great bear," alluding to his iron fisted practices and notable status in Xervia.
 * The name Auberon also alludes to the color auburn in some cases.
 * His character overall is based off of Kaiser Wilhelm II, the last emperor of the German Empire.
