Reign of Armand Falkenrath

Political event

Following in the almost mythical footsteps of his predecessor, Armand Falkenrath called out any & all challengers to the Rose Kingdoms to face him in combat. His first and, as it turns out, only challenger, would become his future wife, Dahlia, a member of the Cathars Crusade. The duel lasted for hours and would ultimately end in a draw, followed by a whirlwind romance that resulted in their marriage.   This complicated relations with the Cathars, who saw one of their own voluntarily becoming a Vampire as heretical, even blasphemous. Armand would spend the rest of his reign dealing with these consequences and conflicts of interest until 6740, when Dahlia found him in bed with another maiden and impaled them both through the heart. Or, as the legend goes, his heart and the maiden's buttocks.
