King Ardwulf Symond IV
His Majesty the King Ardwulf Symond
Ardwulf Symond IV is the thirteenth King of Greenwood. From the royal palace in Brightriver, he rules over the last bastion of civilization in the High North Coast. He sees himself as unfit for the role, but fears the effects of another civil war too greatly to step down. Thus, he remains the king of a dying kingdom, trying desperately to keep the end at bay. As part of his attempts to restore order, he allows guard captains freedom to hire mercenaries or other agents to deal with problems more efficiently or more secretly than the army.
