Therid III

Born Thedromar, son of Nelomar I, the young prince selected the reign name of Therid III, after the First and Second Emperors of the Theridan Empire, as a sign of strength and intention.
After the chaotic and mismanaged rule of his father, Therid III sought to restore order to Paledia, and immediately tightened restrictions. Aided by the military and the other noble families, he soon quelled the riots across the continent and brought the realm under tight control.
Following in the vein of his predecessors, Therid III reinstated the culling of non-human races throughout the Empire, particularly the Elves and Wild Races, who had been allowed to thrive and grow in numbers during the reigns of Nelomar I and Thodrian I. Though a return to the dominance of humanity, many humans welcomed a stricter government after the debauchery and anarchy of Nelomar's rule. A powerful symbol of the strength of the House of Therid, the third Emperor to bear the name ruled for many years.
When he finally passed away, Therid III handed the throne to his son, named Prince Dralian, the name having been chosen by Therid III in honour of the Third Emperor, whose reign his own so echoed.
