High King Harald

Harald the Bloodless is the current High King of Vaanika. This has been met with some controversy, as Harald is an adventurer. Which goes against Academy law. However, the academy has been forced into complacence with this fact to not create an international incident.

Once Harald graduated from the academy, he became a prolific adventurer. Focusing much of his efforts to ensuring the safety of Vaanika and its people. This in turn led to him gaining mass fame in Vaanika.

Eventually Harald's success led to a desire for power. Not for greed, but for a better Vaanika. He challenged the High King to a duel. A duel the High King was doomed to fail, but refusing would have led to a worse fate. The fight was over in a second. Gaining Harald the title of "Bloodless." The duel gained Harald the position of High King and the further support of the people. As they now serve an powerful adventurer, which holds the traits the Vaanikans exemplify.
