Arthwr Glasco-Pryce

Arthwr Alisander ap Arthwr Glasco-Pryce, or Emperor Arthwr IV, by his supporters, is a pretender to the Imperial throne of Kordowyn. 
Shortly after the young Arthwr came of age in June 245, his mother, Maredudd, began a campaign against the reigning Emperor Llywelyn I. Arthwr's mother claimed that he was the son of the late Emperor Arthwr III through a secret first marriage between the then Crown Prince of Kordowyn and herself. The claims are considered dubious, as no physical documentation exists to prove her claims. 
Maredudd was given access to the Imperial archives at Kordowyn Palace, however before she could provide the necessary documents, the basement where the archives were kept caught on fire. The origins of the fire were greatly debated, with her and her son's supporters, coined 'Arthwrians', claiming the Emperor had ordered the fire to destroy any evidence that the young boy was in fact the rightful Emperor of Kordowyn.
The boy and his mother later disappeared after the Arthwrians were defeated in a brief conflict. 
It was later revealed that the young pretender and his mother had escaped to the Crown Colony of Iksys, where they lived among Kordynian settlers. While in Iksys, the two were given financial support from Arthwrian supporters from the Heartland. His mother died of the flu in Iksys and was buried in an unmarked pauper's grave. 
In 259, the King of Seylistis made arrangements for the now 30 year old Arthwr to be transported to his realm in order to marry his daughter, the Crown Princess Esther. After their wedding, Arthwr reiterated his claim to the Kordynian throne and began a campaign to attempt to gain support in the Heartland.
