Moredo Rogare

First Magister, Key Holder of the Rogare Bank Moredo Rogare

Bio

First Magister of Lys the Lovely, the second of this name who managed to be "elected" for life in the fair city, after his illustrious ancestor. Essosi by birth, the man rightly feels to be the most westernized of the Eastern sovereigns: "I wish Lys to become a bridge among our cultures, not between two different continents but inside a wider Valyrian oecumene". Fair in appearance and rich in wit and culture, author of rhymes, translator from the common tongue, restless, ambitious, surrounded by poets, scholars, artists and musicians, but also by the famous lysene "bravi et sbricchi" (cutthroats and freaks), the man certainly never accustomed to modesty or to the true hardship of life. Vain, and probably quite impractical, he does have a penchant for politicking, in the most ruthless of ways, as the people of Lys has learnt in the few years of his "rule". Or that is how he wants to present himself: a master of dissimulation, Moredo Rogare is one torn by doubts. Insecurity cloaked in arrogance. Few have been able to grasp precisely what brought a man of such a fearsome disposition to the pinnacle of power: some speak of the sense of security his family managed to instill him; others venture to say that he ended up believing his own character. Very few speak of a master puppeteer behind him, but these theories beg no more attention than what they are, silly tales for gullible people...that, unless, those fleeting traces of a strange new sect taking roots in Lys are to be believed.
