Dono Vorrutyer was an infamous megalomaniac architect who designed buildings for Emperor Yuri Vorbarra. He was a younger son of a Count Vorrutyer, and had a married daughter. His buildings included Imperial Security Headquarters and the Municipal Stadium in Vorbarr Sultana. Altogether he got up five major structures before he was stopped. While the aesthetics of his buildings, particularly Imperial Security Headquarters, were often criticized, they were well-constructed so far as defensibility and resistance to various kinds of assault were concerned.

abstract
  • Dono Vorrutyer was an infamous megalomaniac architect who designed buildings for Emperor Yuri Vorbarra. He was a younger son of a Count Vorrutyer, and had a married daughter. His buildings included Imperial Security Headquarters and the Municipal Stadium in Vorbarr Sultana. Altogether he got up five major structures before he was stopped. While the aesthetics of his buildings, particularly Imperial Security Headquarters, were often criticized, they were well-constructed so far as defensibility and resistance to various kinds of assault were concerned. After the dismemberment of his patron, Dono Vorrutyer retired to his daughter's estate and succumbed fully to madness, building several strange towers. Due to his reputation, they became a tourist attraction posthumously, as did Imperial Security Headquarters. His grand-niece, Lady Donna Vorrutyer, changed her name to Dono when she became a man.
