Xog Beidoun

King, his majesty, his worship Bedoun Veilei Xog (a.k.a. “The Poet King”)

The ruler of the kingdom of Xu, Xog Bedoun is a young and physically feeble centaur who prefers architecture and poetry to military affairs. Preferring to let his First Citizen and his generals rule the country, he is more content with the fine arts, and is often seen as distant and apathetic by the rest of his countrymen.

His younger sister, Caxia, was born two years later, though the two showed little interest in one another.
