As king of Naturelles, one could argue Harlaw had all the brains that King Altorance as well as a heart. Harlaw saw to it that Naturelles prospered as well as improving relationships with the other ancient races, even abolishing elven slavery. Harlaw would constantly fight for the good of his nation, for when The Man With No Name tried to incite rebellion, Harlaw could see the man for what he really was and had him cast out of Naturelles.Harlaw loved his wife very much and when it came to his attention that the Crusader was spending an unusual amount of time in the castle with his wife, he grew suspicious. Harlaw would confront his wife about this and she would deny it. In actuality she had only commissioned the Crusader to write books for the library. When Lance the Wrathful would attempt to take out the King, Harlaw's wife would support Lance for she believed Harlaw had grown weak after the murder of their first daughter by rebels. Harlaw would beat Lance and have his wife and the Crusader executed. That night, Harlaw would leave the kingdom on a journey to find himself. In the short span of time he was gone, many would attempt to take his place but none would prevail
When Harlaw would return, he would act how his former wife had wanted him, with an iron fist. Harlaw would get the Seven Sinners out of his kingdom and seek to expand his kingdom by ordering the establishment of the Naturellian Colony, even if it meant going to war with one of the last orcish tribes. When pirates would threaten Naturelles, Harlaw would lead his men into battle and be mortally wounded, dying and leaving a legacy.
