"You can't have a society free of politicians, LaFayette. But you can have a society free of bad ones."
William Douglas Reed to Audric LaFayette[src]

William Douglas Reed is a Takemikazuchi politician, and a corrupt Shinsengumi operative. Deeply dissatisfied with the present administration, Reed uses his Shinsengumi status to blackmail and strong-arm politicians and military leaders, all in the aim of replacing Long Shortman as the Prime Minister of the Takemikazuchi Empire, and deposing the current Emperor, Sefer Yetzirah.

Description[edit | edit source]

Appearance[edit | edit source]

Reed's appearance suggests a man in his late thirties, with brown hair and grey eyes.

Personality[edit | edit source]

Reed is outwardly emotionless and maintains a cool, collected exterior. He is impossible to intimidate, even with the threat of violence, as he is completely devoted to his goals and willing to sacrifice nearly anything for it. Reed presents himself as a courteous and respectful man; he despises racism and sexism, asking LaFayette to 'cool it with the misogynistic remarks' when the latter made such a remark about Sefer Yetzirah, one of Reed's primary enemies. However, Reed is completely corrupt and immoral, and his pleasant exterior is merely a cover for this.

History[edit | edit source]

Early Life[edit | edit source]

Reed was born in 33 BR, at the closing of the first Takemikazuchi golden age that would lead into the 17 BR succession crisis. Born to a wealthy and affluent family, Reed followed his older brother in attending a prestigious private school, which would later be dissolved as part of Emperor Sefer's socioeconomic reforms in 5 BR. Reed began to harbor anti-imperial sentiment from a young age, and as such decided to pursue a political career, in spite of his parents wishes that he enter the field of business.

As a teenager, Reed became involved in the 17 BR coup attempt as a revolutionary fighter. When government forces began to arrest members of the uprising, Reed was able to use his family's influence and resources to shield himself from suspicion. He would later go on to join the Shinsengumi, the very organization that had put down the revolutionary faction.

Trivia[edit | edit source]

  • Reed's character was created purely so that the name William Douglas Reed could be used. The name had been suggested by User:Heat after User JS requested a name for a minor political character; said character was later renamed Thomas Aberhart, and the name William Douglas Reed was re-purposed for this character.
