Sydell'Fyr

King Sydell'Fyr, known as The Skeptic King, was the hand behind the events known as the Extinguishing of the Flame. He was known to be overly skeptical, jealous and cautious in everything he did, thus the nickname he received.

Character & Appearance
Sydell'Fyr was a man of expensive taste, and often adorned himself in cloaks, robes, and garments lined with gold and rubies. He enjoyed showing his power as king, and often wandered the outer courtyards of The Citadel in a suit of golden plate armour, with a crown bedazzled in all kinds of rare gems. He was careful and cunning, overly jealous, and extremely cruel to any who spoke out against him. He even had his own cousin, advisor and court sorcerer murdered, simply for questioning an order.

History
Sydell'Fyr was the second-born son of King Darrion'Fyr IV. He was born into the greatest lineage the realm had ever seen, destined to be the next king of the realm after his brother fell in battle. It is said he murdered his own father by poisoning his wine, so that his ascension could come all the quicker. At age nineteen he became the king, and at twenty three he ordered the Extinguishing of the Flame. Sydell believed the Flame was exclusive to his House, and that no other living being outside his kin should know of it's power.

After the Flame had been extinguished across the realm, Sydell was lured out of his castle by a large civilian riot that threatened to invade his stronghold. Believing he could end the squabble with his greatsword and five men, Sydell began hacking his people apart, before being forced to his knees, stripped of his armour, and stoned to death by the masses.
