Cyson Tywysydd

**Llywydd Cyson Tywysydd** is the leader of the Calan race. Residing in Hafan, the central edifice of regulation in Prifddinas, capital city of Sylfaenydd, the Llywydd is involved with the running of their species' domestic politics as well offering diplomatic communcation with the Chapters of Humanity. At Hafan, they often oversee important meetings with the Ystyrtwr, a group of representatives from occupational factions across Sylfaenydd.

Tywysydd has been instrumental in galactic decisions - most famously for passing the Calan Recall Act in OA19,361, which recommended all Calan cessate from their positions in Human civilisations and return to their homeworld. The act received mixed reactions from Humans and Calan alike.

Soon after the materialisation of the Asylum in the Seven Suns system, the Llywydd attempted to reinforce ties with Human Chapters; setting up the Gathering - a conference of all Human Chapters - to offer the Calan's support in the investigation of the Asylum. Secretively, Tywysydd has been cooperating with Gobeithiol Ysbryd on an organisation known as Undergrowth, comprised of Human allies, tasked with quietly influencing political decisions and events.

## Biography

### Early Life

In the Oes Genedigaeth, as recorded by the Llyfrgadwyr, Tywysydd was born inside a coeden in Coedwig, along with the rest of their species.

### The Great Human Migration

In the early years of the Great Human Migration, Tywysydd had an intrinsic in rehabilitating various Chapters of Humanity across the galaxy, guiding them to their new colonies.

### Calan Recall Act

In OA19,361, Tywysydd passes the Calan Recall Act following backlash from many Chapters of Humanity on the Calan's involvement in government policy. The Act recommends that all Calan representatives of Human Chapters return to Sylfaenydd immediately. Eryr is sure the Act will be controversial, but believes it is the right thing nonetheless. The Llywydd passes on the duty of distributing the order to Pendant Cynorthwy.

### The Asylum

In OA19,648, soon after the spontaneous materialisation of the Asylum, which supposedly caused the Disappearing, Tywysydd asked Amynedd Gwyliwr to observe and research its origins to compile a report, which they would then pass on to the United Systems Senate.

### The Gathering

In OA19,654, the Llywydd holds a meeting of Ystyrwtwr with Hael Cyfathreb, head of Cyfathrebiad Cyfanfyd; Pendant Cynorthwy, in charge of interplanetary transportation; Cysgod Tywysydd, leader of Penbryn Sylfaenydd's second city; and Medrus Iachawr, head of Cylch Cymodi. They discuss the fallout of the outbreak of Kumakain ng Laman in the Alpha system and how to mitigate its spread. The meeting attendees agree to send aid to the Virgo Chapter, despite Cysgod Tywysydd's protestations that this would be in violation of the Recall Act. Later, Llywydd Tywysydd receives a report on the Asylum from Amynedd Gwyliwr, who claims that the mysterious object is scientifically impossible. Gwyliwr wants further, and a more tangible, investigation, though the Llywydd is reticent to antagonise the Human race. Instead, the leader intends to organise the Gathering, a special conference to persaude Humanity to trust the Calan again. Before separating, Tywysydd tells the astronomer of an empty tudalen discovered in Llyfrgell in the Hanes y Bydysawd section. Offended that the Llywydd believed they would deliberately mislead the Llyfrgadwyr, Gwyliwr leaves Hafan.

Soon after announcing the conference, Tywysydd contacts Professor Kalet Steale on E'blanche, one of their closest allies. Sincerely, they ask the scientist for support in the Gathering on Castell to help influence a decision in the Calan's favour.

Gobeithiol Ysbryd, orchestrator of Undergrowth, visits Sylfaenydd for rejuvenation at Coedwig, and subsequently meets Tywysydd in Llyfrgell to answer queries. The Llywydd learns about the latest developments across the Human Chapters, including possible corruption involving General Rajab Ayad; information on Godkiller from an agent on Delta 4 working with an academic in the Starrise Academy; and the unexpected rise of an individual known as Der Schmied. They discuss possible recourse, and the morality of their machinations, which Ysbryd believes is irrelevant. Tywysydd also shows Ysbryd the Empty tudalen, claiming it be a bad omen, but their Cymydog dismisses it as coincidental.

On Castell, in preparation for the Gathering, Tywysydd meets with Ysbryd, Professor Kalet Steale, Empress Kun Chao, Guru Stacey Boseman and Prif Siaradwr, informing all of their plan to direct the conference towards a positive outcome; one in which the Calan can regain the confidence of Humanity. Although, they soon realise that the Professor has lost his past enthusiasm.

Later, the Llywydd meets with Louis di Gunga, younger brother of their ally Carlos di Gunga. Tywysydd promises the Aquarian that the Calan would do everything they could to heal Carlos on Arena, having sent Ysbryd previously. They also convince him that working with the Calan is within their interest, despite a watchful eye from his new prime minister, Emilion Serrano.
