Dasedrak the Conqueror

Feared by his enemies, Dasedrak the Conqueror was a war-mongering monarch that left destruction in his wake. Whatever nation he went to war against, he defeated. His legacy was grim and bloody, but none dared stand against him. After all, any who got in his way would be trampled underfoot by the army of Ores that would follow him to the end.
==Background==
Dasedrak was the only child of his parents, and he was consequently the only candidate to take the throne. However, his profound lack of talent for magic -- a common strength in the Orian royal family -- led to rumors that he was actually the result of an affair and thus had an impure bloodline. Nobody could confirm which of his parents he was actually related to, if he wasn't unrelated to both of them altogether. The suspicions wore on him, and they only grew worse with the birth of his first child, Deioros. Like Dasedrak, Deioros seemed unable to use magic, and despite being firstborn, was considered unfit to rule by Dasedrak himself. Deioros' inability to cast even simple spells was seen as proof that Dasedrak's heritage wasn't pure and had tarnished the next generation of royalty.
To quell the notion that Dasedrak was unfit to rule, he waged war on the neighboring nation of Shekzard, known for its strong army and war-like ways. Much to the surprise of many, it was a decisive victory for Ores, and the Orians' views of Dasedrak grew more positive as a result. One by one, Dasedrak waged war against Ores' neighbors, winning each time. Some nations even sent ambassadors in hopes of allying themselves with Ores before Dasedrak came for them. Wealth from the subjugated nations flowed into Ores, ushering in an era of prosperity. The idea that Dasedrak was an illegitmate ruler had all but vanished, further aided by how his daughter, Dokani, was born with an unprecedented affinity for a rare school of magic. Though the Callers ultimately went against Dasedrak's support for Dokani to be the next ruler, and Dasedrak grudgingly named Deioros as Heir, Dokani's blossoming skill with necromancy seemed to be the end of the belief that Dasedrak's lineage wasn't proper royalty.
Dasedrak's campaigns culminated in the war against the peaceful Gralshadi. It had been a bloodbath, but it was also the only way to ensure that his legacy would be that of a conqueror and not of the bastard son. While abroad in Gralshad, Dasedrak's health abruptly took a turn for the worse, and he retired back to Ores to name Deioros the official King, taking the title of Conqueror for himself. The official statement for Dasedrak's suddenly poor health was that he had caught some sort of contagion from the barbaric Gralshadi. Within three years of naming Deioros as the next ruler, Dasedrak died, and he was buried in the royal graveyard.
