Personal history
Born into nobility, Artur d'Courzeiu was the son of the previous king Lorin d'Courzeiu. After his father would pass away from age, he would rise to take his place, going through the ritual of seeing if he is worthy to wield the sword from the stone. The sword would find him worthy, and so it is he now sits on the throne of Vebastonne. Currently he has to deal with the many threats against his great nation, from the Goblin Bandit kingdoms to the ogre marauder tribes on the outskirts of his territory. He also has to defend the nation from the Elven Empire of Iadith, as they have declared the Third Great Elven War, seeking vengeance for being defeated in the Second Great Elven War. While the defenses of held, Artur is ever vigilant, and will do anything to protect his nation and people, for like every knight he has sworn an oath to defend the innocent and weak.

Reign
His reign is one of the Vestoni's greatest rulers. He has managed well both the struggles of king making as well as managing war. Through him the kingdom has flourished, and withstood while the kingdoms around Vebastonne descended into anarchy and chaos. He has helped the Vestoni feel more united then ever, and it is said that he will one day vanquish all evil in the name of Lilla. He has even decreed that women be allowed into combat roles from men at arms to even knights for the inspiring example of Johanna de Vienne, Hero of the Vestoni and the Second Great Elven War. While some in his court grumble at this prospect, he sees that Lila has shown him this decree to be the wisest, and he personally sees no problem with it.
