Biography
Carolus Angelos became the king of the
Kingdom of Myrtana in the year 1428, after the reclamation of Koron. Carolus was not destined to become king from birth, as he was born the second son to King Seneca Angelos. Seneca was murdered by Maximus Angelos, son to Tacitus II, and usurped the Myrtanian throne from Seneca's offspring. Maximus called for an Exalted March on Koron with the
High Flame of the
Chantry of Fire, which was granted by him. House Redcliff and Telvanni rally to the newly found king's call, and the attack on Koron is launched.
It is after the assault of the Inquisition in 1428, the Usurper Maximus is beheaded in Koron, in which the Myrtanian front is driven back to Fort Gideon. With a feeling of failure surrounding the Chantry of Innos, Carolus takes the opportunity to outshine his elder brother Appius Angelos, backed by House Telvanni. As such, Carolus becomes King of Myrtana in a time of turmoil for the Chantry of Innos.
Skills
Carolus is a friend of the populace and a true politician. Luckily for him, Carolus was gifted with a certain charm compared to his scholar brother Appius Angelos. Carolus fights with a Sword and Shield and while certainly not the most gifted warrior, he knows how to wield the blade. He does prefer however to solve conflicts through diplomacy, be that through manipulation or not.
Personality
Carolus is an overall likeable male surrounded by a certain charm. He will rarely resolve conflict through violence, but tends to study his opponents to strike at the right moment. Overall Carolus is welcoming to others as long as they strengthen his popular Myrtanian patriotism. As such, Carolus is only welcoming to non-Myrtanians if they directly better the Myrtanians.
Ideals
Carolus wishes to restore a proud nation of Myrtana, diminishing the influence of the
Chantry of Fire on Myrtana. In particular, he uses his patriotism to restore Angelos' influence on the Myrtanian capital Vengard opposed to the Chantry, this being his prime goal during his reign. He believes Myrtana may flourish once more through trade, and invests in the relations with House Telvanni.
Bonds
Carolus is a family man and romantic. Any who bring harm to his offspring will be met by the Armsmen.
Flaws
Carolus is greatly affected by popular opinion and thus may act accordingly (even if it is not always in his direct benefit). Similarly, he may not cooperate with House Redcliff or the Chantry as to not affect his reputation as "Patriotic Monarch", even if it would be in his best interest.
Diplomacy
Carolus holds friends in House Telvanni. House Redcliff is overall less fond of Carolus, backing a more religious monarch.
