The Forseti (Japanese: フォルセティ) was the Imperial flagship of High Admiral Ulrich Kesler.

Service history

The Forseti's first and only military campaign was the Lippstadt Rebellion in 797 UC (488 IC / 3597 CE). The Kesler Fleet fought under the command of Reinhard von Lohengramm's main force, and in particular the two major fleet battles fought between Reinhard's faction and the high nobles outside Geiersburg Fortress. (LOGH: 'Courage and Loyalty', LOGH: 'The Fall of Goldenbaum')

Following the victory over the high nobles, Kesler raced the Forseti back to Odin to effect the seizure of power from Marquis Lichtenlade. (LOGH: 'Farewell, Distant Memories')

With Kesler appointed as Chief of Military Police by Reinhard in 798 UC (489 IC / 3598 CE), the Forseti was not an active participant in any further military campaigns.
