Life before election
Symkyn was a member of the Chihirite Order of the Sword, rising to the rank of Bishop Militant during the Jihad. He served under Archbishop Militant Gustyv Walkyr during some of the most desperate fighting of the Jihad’s final campaign.

As of the Year of God 903, Vicar Tymythy served as Chancellor of the Council of Vicars, an office he had assumed upon the death of Vicar Raiyn. Immediately prior to this he had spent two years as Grand Vicar Rhobair’s representative to Shang-mi, the capital of the Harchong Empire.

Upon the death of Grand Vicar Rhobair, Symkyn, as Chancellor obliged to act as caretaker during such an interregnum, summoned the Vicars to elect a new Grand Vicar. In October 905 he was elected Grand Vicar and took the name Tymythy Rhobair, in order to underscore his intention to continue his predecessor's policies. He was only the third Grand Vicar to take a second name.
