William Joyce

William Joyce (born 24th April 1906) is an American-born British politician who has served as the United Kingdom of Great Britain's ambassador to the Greater Germanic Reich since 1945.

In-Game Biography

Ask him how he earned his scar, the one that runs from mouth to ear, and he'll tell you that it was a Jewish communist. Ask around, and you'll hear it was a disagreement with an Irish girl. But Joyce has always preferred a dignified story than an ignoble truth.

An early supporter of British fascism, William Joyce turned to Germany after a falling out with Mosley's BUF. During the war, he served as a radio host, an English-language advocate for the German regime, making him infamously known as the menacing Lord Haw Haw. After the war, he returned briefly to England as a champion of National Socialism. Such was his zeal that he even denounced John Beckett, founder of the British People's Party, for his long-buried Jewish heritage. He spent the next two decades in Germania as Britain's ambassador, exiled by a vengeful Old Guard.

For Joyce, his ascension after Sealion II is well-deserved compensation. But the title comes hanging upon strings. England's cruel fate is dictated in the backrooms of the Volkshalle. And whenever he speaks, though clothed with power's trappings, everyone knows for whom he's really speaking.

Involvement

Should Her Majesty's Most Loyal Resistance win the Second General Uprising but are unable to call for support from the United States of America during the Channel Crisis, Joyce will be installed as Lord Protector of the United Kingdom after Germany commences Operation Sea Lion II.

If the Second General Uprising fails and HMMLR boss Maxwell Knight, an old accomplice of Joyce's from their days in the British Fascisti, is captured, he gives the names of a few false co-conspirators, including Joyce. The British government then asks Germany to extradite him; Joyce and Knight are hanged on the same day.
