BOY-KING%202.jpg

(Reign: 573-580/4) Egan Madrigal; known as the "Bastard-King" of Karthis was the son of Edmure and a member of the House of Madrigal. He ruled for only a few short years before his assassination.


Egna was born in the year 559/4 to Edmure and his Iskari wife, Serena. He grew up in Wyn Falas, living a life of luxury, where he was doted upon by the Iskari court and by Queen Isobel, who took him in as a foster-grandchild.

In the year 573/4, Egan was placed on the throne of Karthis with the specific approval of Queen Isobel, but he was never accepted by his own people. The Vaas called him the "Bastard-King," and regardless of his merciful policies and his benevolent rule, the local population held him him in bitter contempt.

In the year 580/4, Queen Isobel of Iskandar died of old age. Within less than six months, Egan was assassinated, triggering the Third Karthic War. He was only 21 years old.
