Tlaipbjer the Gatherer (Native language: Caxer Jomiinka Tlaipbjeɹ, IPA: /ʃɑxɛʀ jɔmi:ŋkɑ tlɑipvjɛɻ/) was the first native Sjuun emperor of the second Yai-Sjuun Empire. Although there existed an empire before his time, Tlaipbjer was not a tribal leader nor of royal descent. The way he conquered the region known today as Sjuu is also remarkable. He didn't fight in many wars, instead, he gathered tribes from all around via diplomacy. This awarded him the title of the Gatherer.
Early life
Tlaipbjer's early life is unknown but is written about in some excerpts of the book his son Klibtat wrote about Tlaipbjer's accomplishments. He was presumably born in a little town called Ci, in a poor family with many siblings. He lived there for a few years until c. 387, when a hurricane hit his hometown and he had to flee with his family. However, only Tlaipbjer's mother and cousin survived, with his mother dying of old age a few years later. Later in April 399, Tlaipbjer was appointed the leader of his town at the age of 20.
Reign
Formation of the Sjuun Empire
After becoming the leader of his town, Tlaipbjer went hard at work at unifying the neighbouring towns around him. In this time he met his wife Gidoku in a city close by. After one year Tlaipbjer earned the title "High Chief of Mewri", and two years after that he titled himself the King of Mewri on 23 May 402, installing an absolute monarchy. After years of conquering and gathering, Tlaipbjer the Gatherer was coronated as supreme emperor of the Sjuun Empire on 25 November 403.
Assassination attempts
Although Tlaipbjer was generally praised by his subjects, multiple town leaders did not agree with having to listen to an absolute monarch. This lead to many assassination attempts and the flight of the emperor in c. 413. In 423, near the death of Tlaipbjer, his son Tlaipbjer II was assassinated. The hereditary law which was written by Tlaipbjer the Gatherer stated that the throne shall be inherited by the eldest son. After the death of Tlaipbjer II Kiflon I would be next in line, but he became a Gennist priest a few years prior. There were no laws disallowing Gennist priests to become emperors, but it was highly looked down on.
Death and succession
After uniting the tribes of Sjuu Tlaipbjer set his eye on the northern tribes in the Yai valley. Unlike the Sjuun tribes, the Yai tribes were not persuaded that easily to join the empire. In 425 Tlaipbjer declared war on these tribes in an attempt to annexe them into the empire. To motivate his army, Tlaipbjer lead them personally to war. This did not end well, the war eventually lead to the death of Tlaipbjer the Gatherer who was slain in battle on 28 March 425. After his death Tlaipbjer's son Kiflon I inherited the throne at the age of 20. Although many did not agree with a priest being the emperor, there wasn't a better option.
