High Minister Veydrik Korran
The leader of Solvyre is High Minister Veydrik Korran, a ruthless and calculating statesman who serves as both governor and chief industrial overseer of the floating islands. Korran is fiercely loyal to the monarchy, ensuring that Solvyre remains the heart of its military production, but he is also a man who understands the value of innovation—so long as it remains under his control.
A former engineer turned politician, Korran rose through the ranks of Solvyre’s industrial elite, leveraging both his keen mind and an utter lack of mercy toward his rivals. Under his rule, the foundries of Ironspire have reached unprecedented levels of production, but at the cost of widespread suffering among the laboring class. His policies have made him reviled by workers and rebels alike, but his iron-fisted rule and extensive spy network have kept dissent from boiling over—so far.
Korran resides in Black Bastion, a fortress-like estate built atop the highest peak of Ironspire. From here, he oversees every aspect of Solvyre’s operations, ensuring that the island’s forges never go cold and that the monarchy’s enemies never gain an advantage. Though he outwardly supports the monarchy’s reliance on magic, rumors persist that he secretly funds research into arcane-disrupting technology, seeking a future where industry—not sorcery—dominates the skies.
