Willam of the Seven Clans, King of Highland

• Name: Willam of the Seven Clans

• Race: Human

• Year Born: 4979 AoC

• Kingdom: Highland
  

Willam is the son of Hamish Gregorsson, of the Ironblade clan. When Agoroth was awakened he immediately set to the task of reuniting the Clans. In his endeavors, he discovered that he was distantly related to Hamish and happily accepted him as family.

Willam was born just before the war, and so has little knowledge of life before. As Agoroth was named as one of the Ten Kings, he immediately formed the Kingdom of Highland, bringing Hamish in as his First Man (similar to Duke among Highlanders). Willam lived most of his remembered life in safety and comfort.

Agoroth always believed Willam had a good head on his shoulders, but that he lacked discipline and drive, so he hired a group of adventurers to escort his nephew on a mission to Farhold to meet his future bride. On the way there, Willam considered running away a few times, but was talked out of it by those escorting him. They also picked up a stray girl along the way that was quite skilled with a bow and short sword, of which Willam took to quite readily. It later came to be known, however, the girl was Sonja, his bride to be, and she was herself running away from the arranged marriage.

Upon arrival in Farhold, a plot was discovered, led by, of all things, an ancient Topaz Dragon with an axe to grind. With the help of the adventurers, Willam was able to thwart the plans of the Dragon, but not before several units of Black Knights had begun to invade Highland. Willam sprang to action and again asked the adventurers for help, and they were happy to oblige.

On his way to deal with another unit of Black Knights, Agoroth came through Farhold to see how Willam was doing. He was pleased to see that his time on the road and combating the Topaz Dragon had disciplined and hardened him.

Agoroth then formally named Willam his successor before leaving for battle. Fortunately, Willam was able to turn the Black Knights away from Farhold. Sadly, after the siege ended at Farhold, Willam received word that Agoroth had died in battle against the Black Knights. With the death of the mighty Agoroth, Willam became king of Highland and married Sonja shortly after.
