Personal history
Born the only son to his father, Medred, Meilanion has always been groomed for rule. His father was a hard man, having quashed a number of rebellions in his rule. Medred taught Meilanion with an iron fist and pushed him to become as dedicated a ruler as his father was. His mother, on the other hand, coddled Meilanion and showered her only son with gifts and praise. This made Meilanion a cruel man, he was used to getting whatever he wanted, but his father's affection was elusive and his teaching methods were often quite taxing on the body and mind of the young student. Meilanion became a master swordsman and a genius in military strategy, he also learned from his father's political mistakes and soon discovered his aptitude for scheming and political maneuvering.
Medred died when his son was only 19 years old leaving him a realm of squabbling High Lords on the verge of a massive civil war. Meilanion coerced, bribed, and assassinated his subjects into a peaceful resolution, but he made a few enemies doing so. He dispatched them one by one, creating a new royal assassin's guild, which he used indiscriminately. His main rival during the early days of his reign was High Lord Gaunther Tarragona who spread his influence over a large area on the southern island of Ancaepya. Rumors of a civil war began to spread, and their feud became public knowledge, although the truth of why the men hated each other was not known to many. During his succession, Meilanion had killed Gaunther's father, but he managed to carry out a large propaganda campaign blaming the feud on Gaunther having apparently attempted to abduct one of the King's sisters. Citing the latter as his reason Meilanion challenged Gaunther to a duel of honor and slew him in one one-on-one combat thus earning his nickname, The Vengeful.
Having consolidated his rule, the King continued his father's policy of gathering more wealth for the crown and further deregulating the economy. The economy is flourishing, and the nobility and the King are getting more and more rich, but the number of peasants and poor laborers is increasing at an alarming rate.
