High King of Aluvia, named after the Aluvian scholar Pwyll. The power of the High King of Aluvia waxed and waned with the charisma or martial prowess of the individual - thus Dragen of Steyles' famous epigram, "The position of High King entitles one to thump the table and plead for order." The modern-day respect given to the position of the High King by the general populace stems from this period of trial, in which the oppressed masses clung to the vision of Aluvian strength as symbolized by Pwyll II.

  • High King of Aluvia, named after the Aluvian scholar Pwyll. The power of the High King of Aluvia waxed and waned with the charisma or martial prowess of the individual - thus Dragen of Steyles' famous epigram, "The position of High King entitles one to thump the table and plead for order." The modern-day respect given to the position of the High King by the general populace stems from this period of trial, in which the oppressed masses clung to the vision of Aluvian strength as symbolized by Pwyll II. He was slain and his army was defeated by the Viamontians on the battlefield of the Plain of Ayrifal . The sons and male cousins of the High King had been slain in battle at his side. His bloodline was rounded up and executed by the Viamontian Royal Governor, Alfric immediately after his victory. . A man of great practicality and few scruples, Alfric refused to mercifully exile or imprison them, to avoid a descendant who could unite the Aluvians and challenge his own offspring for the throne. This was done quietly, however, and neither Theolaud nor Alfrega knew the extreme measures taken by their dead patriarch.
