Aduard Ordranti III
Despite having been the ruler of Ustalav for more than three decades, Prince Aduard Ordranti III is almost completely indifferent to his role as leader of a nation. Born as the younger brother of Valislav Ordranti (who eventually became known as the 'Eunuch Prince'), most believed he was destined never to rule. When his brother died without a legitimate heir in 4674 AR, Aduard was thrust upon the throne. Aduard has never adjusted to the subtle politicking of Caliphas court life and approaches most situations with a soldier's tactless, blunt approach (he held an honorary position as a general in the Ustalavic army). When discretion is necessary, Aduard relies on his brother's aged advisor, Diauden, and it is on his advice that he seeks a wife to give him an heir.
