Tahir Talat
King Tahir Lindroth Talat
Mental characteristics
Personal history
Tahir was born to Aaron Lindroth and Duchess Eri Lindroth, Eri being the only child of Princess Doshi Talat. He was removed from his parents' household at the young age of four, and taken instead to be raised by his first cousin once removed, Prince Berak Talat the Younger, heir to the throne. From that point, he was raised as a Prince of the Royal house alongside the King's three other children.
Tahir would suceed his foster-father when Berak was assassinated, taking the throne of Ostar at the age of 45, and inheriting the still ongoing War of Conquest. Not a single living soul knew whose name would be on the inheritance documents when they were unsealed after Berak's death, but Tahir stepped into his foster-father's shoes and into the War of Conquest without faltering.
Tahir had two children supposedly of his wives though anyone would be hard-pressed to identify a single night he actually spent in any of his wives' beds, Princes Haldun Talat and Tayyar Talat. He also chose to foster one of his brother's children, Gaire's son Melker Talat; and one of his sister Aysel's children, son Tarren Talat.
He was the last of the Ostarian sovereigns whose entire rule was marked by the War of Conquest. He abdicated in favor of Melker when he was nearly 150 years old; at the time, Melker had already taken over the leadership of the Kingdom's armies almost entirely; Tahir was recorded musing that if the war was to ever end, it would be Melker who would accomplish it.
Sexuality
Though Tahir had several wives and two sons supposedly his with these wives, he was well-known to like men as well and anyone would be hard-pressed to actually place him in any of his wives' beds at any time. There were rumors that Tahir's sons fathers were actually his brother Gaire, or another of their cousins.
