Gotthart Ulrichsson Ludolfr, otherwise known as Emperor Gotthart, Gotthart the Pacifier, sometimes called the Neuperor or Newperor, and among the Norscan he is known as the Bloodletter King, is the ruler of the southern Empire after the events of the Grand Calamity; unifying the shattered empire and recovering the devastated realm. Prominent member of House Ludolfr, and first emperor from the same dynasty. He successfully mowed down the Rebellion of Kazimierz Češaliewicz, and gained the approval of the College of Electors. He succeeded the dynasty of the Mannheimr emperors, which founded the Empire and ruled it over seven centuries.

Skillful leader, prominent general and a master of his court. Gotthart had all the talents to become an emperor, however originally it was never his intention. He served the last Mannheimr emperor, Witold III, and participated during the Elven Invasion of 748-761, during which Witold died and a rebellion was ignited by Kazimierz Češaliewicz. After eight years of harsh struggle with the rebels, Gotthart emerged victorious, and worthy of the throne as some thought, and received the nickname the Pacifier.

During his reign the old empire was reborn and reformed, reshaping the politics of the continent dramatically. He waged a conflict the Norscan to drive them back across the Great Ridge, which resulted in a high death toll among the Norscan immigrants, for which he received the nickname the Bloodletter King.
