Emperor Donovan the Mad
Donovan Prismodian (a.k.a. Donovan the Mad)
Emperor Donovan was emperor for a 50-year span now referred to as the Reign of Terror.
Personality
Donovan was impatient and paranoid. Donovan was magically gifted in all three disciplines known to the imperial bloodline. He could manipulate the element of fire well enough to create constructions from them and could heal himself. Worst of all, he was strongly telepathic, a fact that both made him incredibly difficult to plot against and also probably strongly contributed to his mental deterioration.Personal History
The Reign of Terror: 255-298 EC
Donovan's were consistently short-sighted and often completely incomprehensible. Some things that happened in the Reign of Terror:- Dissolution of the The Triamic Council
- Frequent assassination of any political rivals or "conspirators" (read: anyone he doesn't like)
- Imprisonment and execution of the multiple Holy Elders (usually an untouchable class of priests)
- Death of empress and second son by Donovan's own hand in a fit of hysteria (his other son later disappears and his daughter commits suicide)
- Two simultaneous wars when Donovan suspects the two nearest allies on opposite sides of the empire of conspiring against him.
- Subsequent slaughter Et'ens and Wights blood for being "of the enemy."
