Admiral Jorgen Svendheim, GLC was a military leader during the Principality Wars, who united Skytopia in the wake of the wars and founded the Commonwealth. His protege, Ignacious Fuseli, whose brilliant strategies helped win the war for the Commonwealth, would later found the Crimson Armada.
Svendheim was enamored of the ancient Kingdom of Magnus, and modeled his Commonwealth on it, even going so far as to try to make himself king of Skytopia. His ambition and arrogance were the impetus for Fuseli's split from the Commonwealth and the cause of the Skytopian Civil War.

On 7 Upheavalardalis 190, Svendheim told his Minister of War, Thanius Albamont, to ensure that his body was cremated and the ashes scattered. He also instructed that his remaining personnel should surrender, and that they give his final letter to Fuseli.
The exact conditions of his death are unknown, and accounts from those in the bunker differ, but his body was never found.
