TheUnshameless, canonically named Shamizir Ivanrukovichi IV, was the Hetman of the Chevaporozhia and head of the Cossack Liberation Army. He ignited the Faru Civil War for the goals of obtaining "XP" and the independence (or autonomy) of Chevaporozhia.

Biography

Pre-Revolutionary Faru

Coming from a Cossack background, Unshameless would join the Imperial Slorbian cavalry ranks in his youth. Showing a military talent, he would quickly rose within the ranks of the imperial military. He became a major figure in the local Cossack community in Faru.

Revolutionary Faru

When Kenneth Infaru launched a nationalist revolution and the start of the Faru war for Independence, Unshameless joined the ranks of the Faruan Army. According to Unshameless, he did this after an alleged agreement that an independent Faru would grant rights and freedoms to the Cossacks. After General Kenneth's death, Unshameless found no non-Cossack supporters for his Cossack political project within the nascent post-war revolutionary scene. For that, as well as desiring to obtain "XP", Unshameless gathered his Cossack brethren, founding the Cossack Liberation Army, and started raiding Faruan settlements.

Cossack War

Unshameless was primary aggressive force during the war. A talented tactician and warrior, Unshameless led many successful raiding campaigns and sieges against the then-underdeveloped Faruan security forces. He was noted for aggressive attacks and strategic retreats, adopting guerrilla tactics to ambush unsuspecting travellers. Throughout the war, the Cossacks under Unshameless would obtain control and tribute from several central Faruan settlements; these would lay the foundation to the proto-state called Chevaporozhia with himself as Hetman.

The war was not easy, however. He made himself new enemies from the constant attacks and through the manners he carried himself. He was able to join the Constitutional Convention as a delegate, and had influence over other delegates who came from towns under Cossack control. He succeeded in conducting a treaty with the newly established Miners' and Soldiers' Council of Divesk the day of their revolution, but no military benefit came from it and the relationship froze. Unshameless would start negotiating a treaty with newly formed Faruan state. A ceasefire was called but Unshameless used it as a chance to wreck a massacre on Furuan citizens. Despite the re-escalation of war, a treaty between the two sides was signed that heavily favoured the Cossacks.

Hetman Unshameless's death

With a treaty in hand, Unshameless continued his brutal governance and attacks on Faruans. On the 8th of June, while secretly trespassing over republican-held territory, Unshameless was found by an angry mob of Faruans. They would go on to tear off his limbs, gut his stomach and spill his intestines with a shovel. One of the citizens brought a pot of melted iron and forcefully drained it into Hetman's throat. Still alive, the villagers stabbed and slashed Unshameless 67 times. They tied his legs to a horse and for 3 minutes had him trailing behind the galloping beast. He was drowned several times in the near-by river. After 34 minutes since being discovered by the mob, Unshameless died after the final blow: being violently shoved head-first into a stone wall like a battering ram.

Politics and Legacy

The hetman was a nationalist and separatist. Later compromising to a regionalist position, he desired to obtain the independence of his state. The vision of such a state is unknown as the proto-state Chevaporozhia had no officially published legal documents and ran closer to a cartel than a modern government. In modern day Faru, the name Unshameless is met with disgust. Though sometimes seen as a cunning general, that is often overlooked due to his brutality and violence against the Faruan population. He has been called a bandit and a terrorist. In the diaspora Cossack population, many having fled over concerns of their defeat and growing intensity (see: Cossack Genocide), see Unshameless as a hero and brave lion.
