King Harlaus is the monarch of the Kingdom of Swadia. He starts as the lord of Praven with 1200 renown. He has no family other than his cousin's daughter, Lady Isolla of Suno. Harlaus wears Plate Armor and a Knightly Heater Shield, thus making him one of the strongest NPCs in the game. Even though he is old, he is a powerful warrior and at a high level. He dislikes awarding fiefs or castles to anyone but himself, though this can change as the player's Renown increases.
