**Soltész Apród Jutotzas aki Örökké Dicsőséges**, also known as **Jutotzas the Glorious** and numerically as **Jutotzas I**, was the King of the Pirosars from 1345 and the Emperor of All Pirosars from 1349 to 1398. During the Age of Sorrow, Jutotzas united the majority of northern Isciterra around the Benthic Sea under the banner of his self-declared Empire of the Pirosars after having won a civil war for the Pirosar throne. He was the first monarch to rule such an amount of land under one singular title since the end of the Erilanthan Age of Expansion and the fall of the Caelian Empire millennia prior, and would be remembered as the most influential and powerful Pirosar to ever live.

Jutotzas was the only son between King Apród IV of the Kingdom of Pirosaria and Nádja of Svatoland, a Svatolander princess wedded to Apród IV as a secondary wife. Born en-caul in 1327 LE, it would later be seen by historians that this was the completion of the Prophecy of Fállau issued to his great-grandfather King Apród III by the Oracle of Kástynket in 1227, where it was proclaimed that *"a man of the Kings shall be born; one who is conceived under a scarlet lining; one who will ride his steed unto the glories of all the known world"*.

Jutotzas became King of Pirosaria following the death of his father in Summertide of 1345, and was the first to reach the Pirosar capital of Kéttó on the 19th. He was coronated on the 20th of Summertide against the rage of his older half-brother and son of Apród IV's primary wife, Prince Avenár, which lead to the triggering of the Pirosar Civil War of 1345. Defeating his half-brother's larger army on the plains outside of Kéttó (through what some rumor to be a hidden and even wicked fount of strength) this solidification of power and testament to Jutotzas's abilities allowed him to quickly amass a large enough army to invade the Kingdom of Vruchia and later the Grand Duchy of Tsayonovo in what would be the War of the Three Kings from 1347 to 1349.

After the conquering of the Vruchians and Tsayonovans in 1349, Jutotzas went on to declare the first Empire of the Pirosars (as *uralkodó*). He later campaigned downwards on the western coasts of the Benthic in the War of the Benthic Sea...

Jutotzas entered the height of his power in 1394 with the absorption of the Kingdom of Vasilia into the empire. He attained the title *Lord of the Benthic Sea* after his conquering of a majority of the coastal regions around the Benthic, as well as the title *King of Lions* after subduing several powerful nations and subordinating them as vassals under his imperial dominion. He expanded Pirosar rule, influence, and religion well past the confines of the Orathil basin to as far south as the borders with Basan, as far north as the northern shores of Isciterra, and as far west as Vasilia and the various princely states near Bocland. His mass baptisms of several subjugated peoples under Eredetism lead to the proliferation of the religion and its gradual disassociation as a strict ethnoreligion, leaving several religious minority populations of Eredetists throughout northern Isciterra to the present day. However, his blood sacrifices that involved both "free creatures" such as man, gob, and elf, in addition to animal sacrifices as a means to power blood magic led to major contentions in the Holy Canonic Church of Eredet, and his later death would lead to the unabated reformation of the religion.

Jutotzas died at the age of 71 on the 16th of Winterfall, 1398, while campaigning against the tribes of Anskarland in the Daubeg Forest. He was buried in the Cathedral of the Holies on the 29th of Wintertide within the Pirosar Royal Citadel in Kéttó. Jutotzas had a total of ten wives and several more concubines during his reign as emperor, having a total issue of thirty six children. The most senior, Kende I, would be chosen to inherit Jutotzas I's titles as Emperor of All Pirosars and King of Pirosaria. However, the rapid collapse of the Pirosar Empire left Kende I the choice to destroy the former title and return Pirosaria back to its original holdings in the Orathil basin. Kende I's sister and favorite daughter of Jutotzas, Bernádett the Fearless, remained his vassal as the Duchy of Sepóty. His half-brother, Thijmen the Foreign, independently reigned as the King of Dapria until his overthrow in 1405.

## Name

The name "Jutotzas" was given to him by his father, King Apród IV, as a means of honoring their Pirosar ancestors. The true meaning of the name is unknown to modern historians, but its invocation as his birthname might have been as a means of great honor and respect.

## Wives, concubines, and children

Jutotzas had thirty eight children in total, with nine of his ten wives and eight of his multiple concubines. However, the only grandchildren to be recognized in direct royal lineage and thus inheritance were the sons and daughters of his firstborn, King Kende I, who was the son of Jutotzas's primary wife, Amália Császárnő of Padály.
