Yorick Voldren

Ripped from his parents as a newborn by Duergothoth, Yorick was raised by the Vassal-Governess to rule with an iron fist. Though fortunately, with the influence of Miron Broadborn, Yorick was able to see through the rule of the Creeping Doom and the Dragon-Empire. Finally appointed to his station as Regent at age 15, he ruled under the direction of Duergothoth until he was 19: just before the Vassal-Governor would impart the Blessing of Dragon's Blood to their Regent at age 20. It is then, mere months before he was to be transformed, that the Seekers of the Golden Grain would come to Ashguard and slay Duergothoth; freeing Ashguard from tyranny, and Yorick from his transformation.
Since then, Yorick has led Ashguard graciously and with great wisdom. He has the heart of the people.

After the Thieves Campaign: Yorick felt personally responsible for the deaths caused by his former Speaker, Chad Embergaze, as he chose not to heed the warnings of Gerwas Olbrich to keep Chad at arms-distance. 4 months after the Assassin's Guild Killings, after Yorick had done all he could to ease the hearts and calm the fears of his people, Yorick announced that he would not be running for Regent again, and that he assumes all the blame for the tragedies caused by the former Speaker. Still wishing to atone all he could for his mistakes, Yorick would go on to serve as a member in the House of Regents under the administration of Regent Isak Andel. In this function he would continue to help the Thieve's Guild, never revealing their existence to the new Regent.
In the year 36 YH, Yorick's eldest daughter, Senua, was elected to be the third Regent of Tycheron. After assisting his daughter in her first year as Regent, Yorick Voldren stepped down from politics and retired to the family estate.

Establishment of the Ebon Regius, the bill of rights for the Federation.

Federalist-Libertarian.

Providing and protecting the laws and independence of Ashguard.

Understands and believes deeply in the importance of councils. Yorick has an almost manic obsession to surround himself with good people, people he can trust that will put the needs of others above their own. Once he's done so, he weighs their input carefully and will in most cases defer to the judgement of his councils, even when he and they may be at odds on an issue.
After the Thieves Campaign: This has only been exacerbated after the horrific treachery of Speaker Chad Embergaze.

Yorick Voldren will be remembered for many things as the first Regent of the Federation of Ashguard. Including, the establishment of the Ebon Regius,

Miron Broadborn is his most powerful, intracity, ally.
Chad Embergaze is his royal advisor. (Formerly)
Gerwas Olbrich and the Seekers of the Golden Grain.

His wife Madeleine is his most important ally and strength. Yorick takes very seriously his relationship with her. Together they have had four children: His eldest child and first daughter Senua, his oldest boy Bruce, his second son Tiber, and their youngest child and second daughter Sophronia. Each of his children are deeply loyal and affectionate to their father. Together, the Voldren family serve as their husband and father's greatest supporters.

Yorick has personally seen to the establishment of the worship of all the Greater Gods in Ashguard (excluding Tiamat). He believes religious freedom is paramount to the preservation of independence. He personally worships the Lawbearer, as Tycheron is Her Chosen City, above the other Gods. But he pays great attention to worshiping the Platinum Dragon, the All-Hammer and the Dawnfather.

Deep, but plain, and always contemplative.
