Regulus Kingmaker

eiReku Olos lyzenyehuäkweya! eiMaiöna lyzenyehuäkweya!- In Old Euluska, the chant 'King Olos be with us, Maiona be with us.'
Regulus Kingmaker (Old Euluska: Rekuolos Rekuäiza) was a powerful warrior, noble, and leader of The Horn around the year zero, and the unifier of the Euluskan Empire. 
== In A Name ==
His given name was Olos Azoälda, but in Old Euluska, he was posthumously given the epithet rekuolos, meaning 'King Olos'. His epithetic surname rekuäiza meant 'bringer of rule' or 'maker of kings', the latter of which is how it was translated. Thus, his whole posthumous name could be said to mean 'King Olos, Maker of Kings'. 
== Rise to Power ==
His rise to power began when his family house, Azoälda, conquered the Troodos mountain range and some of the Luskan Peninsula in the 50s RTE, unifying some warring houses and families. In 32 RTE, he was most famous for uniting the most powerful families of the Peninsula - and in the year 0 (the calendar was based off it!) they united into the Euluskan Empire.
The rest is history. These families included House Azrapi, House Diz Voäza, House Kalanetzi, House Kazalanteä, House Dez Etituz, and House De Zaimus.
== Death ==
In the year -26 TE, the Vizier of House Azrapi, Véylerën, had been tempted by a devil to kill Regulus and take his sword. Véylerën used her influence to ensure that on Sun Saint's Day (first day of summer), Regulus would be alone in prayer. Regulus and the nine Viziers were on a pilgrimage to the town of Sanctum at the time. She reassigned guards away, blackmailed them, had them killed by loyal soldiers, etc. As part of Euluskan Maionic religious tradition, weapons are strictly forbidden during prayer. Véylerën took Regulus's unattended Xánwyr, the Black Blade. She entered the Sanctum Chapel where he knelt, approached him from behind, and speared him through the back with the sword. He struggled, and managed to tip an oil-filled candle dish on her, before dying. Véylerën suffered some burns, but fled the scene. The devil Ormander covered her escape. He descended a stinking cloud of brimstone upon the city of Sanctum, which many civillians were afflicted from (a few even dying!) You can imagine the stories - "the day was remembered, for when the Emperor died, a cloud of sulfur appeared over Sanctum!". His death caused a succession crisis.
His granddaughter, Rhona Istrina Azoälda, later hunted down and killed her grandfather's killer at Withering Ridge.
