Simon Borge-Steiner

Simon Borge-Steiner (Born 2892 - Died 2960) was the eldest son of Eric Steiner, Archon of the Lyran Commonwealth.

Although not officially named as heir, Simon had grown up expecting to be the next Archon, with the fervent support of his sister Tatyana. However, because he suffered Dowbrowski Depression-A syndrome Simon was subject to severe mood-swings. When lucid he was much admired, but fear that he could not be relied upon to remain lucid led to the nobility and Estates General delaying in accepting him as Archon.

However, they could not delay indefinitely and eventually were assembled to recognise Simon. At the last moment, Simon eloquently ceded the throne to Tatyana and personally led her to the throne, investing her with the Chain of State. Simon never again entered the Throne Room.

Family

Simon had a son, Cohran Steiner, whose descendants continued to serve the Commonwealth well into the thirty-second century.
