Vortigern Ikeurium

Vortigern Ikeurium was the ruler of the Empire from 4055 to 4145 until he was assassinated by his grandsons.

During his reign, he initiated a war against Scalindia, which lasted sixty years and almost drained all of the Empire's resources. He exiled his own son to keep power and, as his life drew ever on, was believed to be kept alive by the illegal practice of sorcery.
