Richard Perkins was the Landgrave of Hegel.

History

In 2812, Perkins was swayed by Free Worlds League subversion attempts (and possibly disgruntled by the disbandment of the Estates General), enough to make an attempt on the life of Archon Richard Steiner. Drawing a laser pistol, Perkins nearly fired upon the Archon, but was interrupted at the last moment by Hauptmann David Bateman, one of the royal court guards. Bateman, piloting one of the ceremonial Griffins flanking the Archon's throne, responded by slamming his BattleMech's hand down between Perkins and the Archon, blocking the shot and saving Richard Steiner's life.[1]

There are no further records as to Perkins' fate, but it is notable that Hegel ceases to appear on star charts after 2822.
