Linked the succession break to Theodora's Chapter 2 battle against Dyan and noted the replacement arm she gains in Chapter 1
Sergio was the king of Saramis and the father of Theodora and Dyan. He is already dead when Fortune's Weave opens, killed by an assassin, and the fallout from that killing is what pushes Theodora out of the palace and into the Heroic Games. He is a backstory figure rather than a unit, and he has never been shown on screen as a playable character.

Saramis sits at the southern end of the continent of Dagda as a vassal state of the Dagdan Empire, with its royal capital at Megaira. Sergio ruled it before Theodora did. Two of the retainers who now serve her have held their posts since his reign: Bonaventure as the crown's Mastermind and Tobias as its Lionheart. Both served the old king, so Theodora inherits a court that already knows how the kingdom runs.
Sergio named Theodora his heir even though she is the younger of his two children, which passed over his son Dyan. Bonaventure states the reasoning flatly in dialogue: "Our late King Sergio understood this. That is why he chose Theodora as his successor!" Dyan does not accept the decision and holds that he is the better claim to the throne.
Sergio is killed by an assassin, and that killing is the event Theodora's story starts from. Accounts of the scene describe Dyan as a conspirator in the plot, which turns a succession argument into an open break between brother and sister and leaves Theodora queen of a kingdom that has just lost its king. The break comes to a fight in her Part I Chapter 2, "Dyan's Uprising", where the battle for the throne is won by defeating Dyan.
Preview material fills in the surrounding detail: Theodora had been away on a long tour of duty at Fort Zanbar and was back in the royal capital for the first time in years, and the same attack cost her the right arm she fights with. The released game shows the replacement: in her Part I Chapter 1, "Theodora, The Iron Bastion", she gains Mahadu's right arm and Mahadu's Spear at Mahadu's Shrine. The tour of duty comes from preview text, and this wiki had not confirmed it against the released game as of September 2026.
Theodora's full name, Theodora Sergio Sabangrain, carries her father's name in the middle position. She uses the full form when she introduces herself as queen, which is the closest the game comes to putting him on screen.
For the daughter he named heir and the son who refused to accept it, see Theodora and Dyan. The kingdom he ruled is Saramis, where Tobias has held the title of Lionheart since his reign.
