Maric I von Pentaghast

Maric I von Pentaghast, known as "the Liberator", was the first Kaiser of the Holy Astorian Empire. He is regarded as one of Eorel's most famous figures, having led humanity out of elven hegemony and founding the first nation of humans on the continent. Born a slave and a stonemason, Maric led his people to seek the blessing of the Lady of the Lake, becoming the first astorians and giving birth to rebellion. Over 10 years, Maric and his people would wage bloody war against the elven empire until pushing them back to their crescent island and being crowned Kaiser of the Astorians.
