Waroch I
Roue (King) Waroch , I (a.k.a. King of Gwened)
Reign
Waroch rose to power in the petty Kingdom of Gwened, an upstart vassal of High King Budig II with great ambition and power. Unsatisfied with his holdings, he conquered the marshy regions around Naoned, cementing his status as the most powerful force in Upper Letha.
Waroch became embroiled in the bloody campaign of Conomor the Cursed. Despite his initial victories, Waroch was betrayed when his sons, led by Chanao I, who poisoned his brothers save for Bishop Macliau, who fled to Conomor's protection, plotting to take the throne from Chanao.
In the meantime, Waroch, aided by the Alliance of the Brekilien, ousted Chanao and began to prepare against Conomor and Macliau, erecting palisades and earthworks to protect his Northwestern border from the Black Dog's host. A surprise attack by Conomor's Garwaf Sea Dogs during the Bloodmoon put an end to Waroch's reign as the kingdom fell after a unnaturally long night of brutality and mayhem.
Waroch took a knee before his conqueror, adding his forces to Conomor's and turning on Muldumarec Artegall's shattered alliance. Conomor took his daughter, Tryphine as a hostage, ultimately killing her after Budig's defeat. Waroch never recovered and his son Judicael I, a puppet of the Kingdom of Neustria took the throne.
