King Lonell Emswort

Lonell Emswort became king of Emswort of Emswort when his father died in 178EA. He was worried about instability as the technology from the Starship Guines continued to break down, and built up a large King's Guard force, headed by Captain Harpe.
Once in such a position, the captain begain working behind the king's back to gain the throne himself. As such, during King Lonell's reign, there were a number of suspicious and unexplained deaths around various people near the throne. This caused more unrest, not less, in the people, with the king staying mostly behind guards in his home.
The throne was eventually rescued by Eima Hartiss, one of his distant relatives and (after years of deaths) next in line for the throne, and Dalin Gliss.
