Prince Rannon Hammerdoom

Eldest son of King Hammerdoom and heir apparent to The Protectorate of Malchior, Prince Rannon is viewed by his supporters to be the future of Malchior. A cunning diplomat and back of the field soldier, Rannon's strong grasp of tactics both on and off the battlefield make him a formidable commander.

Public Opinion
Some of the traditionalists in Malchior do not care for the Crown Prince, thinking he is not hardy enough of a warrior since he does not tend to lead his troops into battle. These factions instead favor the Prince's younger brother, Argus Hammerdoom, who seems the epitome of the strong armed warrior.

Thus far, Prince Rannon has been able to ignore the traditionalists, and his marriage to the heir of The Kingdom of Holden, Myriad Buxtehude, caused his popularity to swell, as did the ascension of his father to the God Head Seat.

However, Myriad disappeared the very night of their wedding and has yet to reappear, causing tension between Malchior and its ally, Holden. Prince Rannon claims his wife is adventuring, but his excuses for her absence grow thinner every day as does his support base.

Council of the Nine Empires
Many believe the group being sent to travel the Omniverse is merely a ploy by the Prince to draw attention away from the disappearance of his bride.
