Garigan Dynasty
EDRIC%20GARIGAN-1.jpg

The Garigan Dynasty was a line of Amador rulers descended from King Edric Garigan; who founded the Kingdom of Amar in the year 15/4.


The House of Garigan was an old and distinguished family, who, by the end of the Third Age, had became the rulers of the city of Amara. About this time, a young lord named Edric Garigan was approached by the Council of Sorcerë, who asked for his aid against the pending invasion of the West by the forces of Alokkair.

Recognizing the danger to all the free people of Corwyn, Edric answered the call and gathered his army. The Saar gave Edric "Gloomchaser," a powerful magical sword, which he wielded in the War, along with the other "Seven Champions." Edric and the forces of the First Alliance defeated Alokkair and saved Corwyn.

As a result of his great victory, his fame and popularity grew and within a few years, all the Amador tribes united and anointed him as their first king. Edric named his kingdom "Amar," ordered Athos-Sorel built as his citadel, and chose its location atop a towering mountain.

His descendants continued to rule the Kingdom for 1,282 years. The Dynasty ended in the year 1297/4, when King Maladric II was slain during the Battle of the Dawn. The Garigan family was succeeded on the Brass Throne by King Aldric Karston.
