Description
Jircniv Rune Farlord El-Nix reigns as Emperor of the Baharuth Empire, infamously titled the "Bloody Emperor" after his violent purge of the nobility upon ascending the throne at age twelve. This elimination of political opponents secured his power and forged his reputation as a ruthlessly effective ruler who replaced the stagnant aristocracy with a merit-based system. Despite his methods, his people regard him as one of the empire's greatest emperors for strengthening its military, economy, and administrative efficiency.
Born into one of the Five Great Families, Jircniv received leadership training from childhood. Accusations of assassinating the previous emperor against his mother led to his entire family's execution, securing his claim but leaving him emotionally scarred and fiercely dedicated to the empire's longevity.
Jircniv possesses exceptional charisma, political acumen, and pragmatism. He meticulously crafts a public image of unwavering calm and confidence to project strength. While ruthless against threats, he prioritizes the empire's welfare over personal power, appointing capable commoners to high office and avoiding gratuitous cruelty—such as withdrawing an offer of noblewomen to Ainz Ooal Gown once diplomacy no longer required it. Intense pressure triggers severe stress, manifesting in physical ailments like stomach cramps and hair loss during crises.
Learning of Ainz Ooal Gown, Jircniv initially sought to manipulate him into an imperial pawn. He orchestrated the worker invasion of Nazarick through disgraced Count Femel, aiming to gauge Ainz's strength and sabotage his relationship with the Re-Estize Kingdom. After Nazarick's emissaries, the dark elf twins Aura and Mare, threatened the empire's destruction unless he apologized, Jircniv personally led a delegation to the Great Tomb. Witnessing its unimaginable power and Ainz's intellect, he concluded Nazarick threatened humanity's survival. To protect the empire, he proposed an alliance, exchanging informants—his aide Loune Vermillion for Demiurge.
Jircniv later deduced his court wizard Fluder Paradyne had betrayed him to Nazarick. He secretly plotted a grand coalition of human nations, including the Slane Theocracy and Holy Kingdom, against Ainz while simultaneously seeking discontented Nazarick spies to foment internal rebellion. However, after witnessing Ainz annihilate 200,000 troops at the Katze Plains and facing abandonment by potential allies during a covert meeting at the Grand Arena, Jircniv abruptly surrendered the Baharuth Empire as a vassal state to the Sorcerer Kingdom to avoid annihilation.
Following vassalization, Jircniv's stress-related health issues subsided. He adapted to his reduced role, befriending demihuman leader Pe Riyuro—also subjugated by Ainz—which softened his prejudice against non-humans. He also acknowledged the efficiency of delegating administrative duties, a tactic observed from Ainz.
