Lord Gonthrag

Lord Stark Gonthrag is a main character in the Boronia series. He is the bravest warrior of the group, and capable of wielding both a sword and a hammer. ......

Information
Lord Stark Gonthrag, more commonly known as Lord Gonthrag, is King of the nation Artarin, and ally/member of the World Council, a trusted amalgamation of leaders tasked with lording over the Continent in its hierarchy, which later became a group dedicated to stopping the reign of terror which the King, or Emperor, Soabo delivered to the land.

Originally, his brother took control of the throne after winning it during a rebellion, overthrowing the previous King of Artarin and installing a new government, one which included then-General Gonthrag as the nation's Warlord (Essentially, a title given to the top ranking General of Artarin). However, being one of the largest countries, Artarin was forced into war once again, six years later, resulting in the death of his brother during one of the largest battles of the century. The cause or participants of the war is unknown.

Childhood
Born in the nation of North Haven, beneath the reign of a previous King, Gonthrag was raised in a rather ordinary manner. His father, who was a General of North Haven, set an example for both he and his brother, who desired nothing more at the time than to follow in his footsteps and find a superior rank in the military. Life at home was very simple, with both of them doing chores to help around the house, and training in their spare time as demanded by their father, in hopes that they would be able to defend themselves should the need ever arise, and that they would one day join the army like himself.

Gonthrag and his brother had almost a rivalry, to see who would become a higher rank first. They continued their schooling, and at the age of twelve, had to move to Artarin due to financial problems and other things, including the recently outbreaking rebellion.

Instead, in Artarin, both eventually did become Generals. WIP.

Adulthood
Upon reaching adulthood, everything took a turn for the worse. (name), Gonthrag's father, was unable to properly tend to the throne and his royal obligations and therefore handed it over to Gonthrag's brother. By this time, Gonthrag had become such a fearsome combatant that he was eligible to be a General, but Gonthrag never truly wished to partake in mass murder despite his passion for battle.

Time passed, and so did a gargantuan war which Gonthrag and his brother fought and took part in. His brother was slain during this war, and Gonthrag was the only remaining heir to the throne.

Appearance
Surprisingly, Lord Stark Gonthrag looks little like a typical King; In battle, he dons sturdy armor of a dark blue and purple hue, with a maroon cape fastened around his neck. Sometimes, he is seen wielding a golden sledgehammer, which can often be regarded as intimidating or fearsome by his opponents. Unkempt, dark hair lays atop his head, and his eyes appear the color of golden amber.

Casually, Gonthrag's outfit doesn't appear very much like a citizen. Saving the regal appearance for his normal clothing, he often wears a blue coat complete with a golden sash. Still with the maroon cape, Gonthrag also wears a silver necklace, locked around his neck, decorated with opals. At the end of the chain is a symbol crafted from diamond, the one truly king-worthy possession Gonthrag has, aside from his beautiful golden crown and his black-colored sword adorned with silver, dubbed "Night". This blade can course with electricity, and heat up, turning a deep purple, red, or even white color from the fiery temperature.

Personality
Contrary to the scowling artwork, Gonthrag is smug and often wears a smirk, being somewhat arrogant as well as brave. Although he appears to be somewhat intimidating, it is only in battle that he lets out his inner desire to fight. Sometimes, he can be rash and hasty.

Impatience is a prime example of Gonthrag's weakness. Planning or strategy is not his strong suit, so he will head into battle without a proper plan in mind due to his lack of patience. This is because when there is an easier way especially, he loathes unnecessarily complicated things. Aside from this, Gonthrag is snide and sharply critical when he is in the right mindset and mood.

Trivia

 * Gonthrag was not originally his name. It was a name he chose upon becoming King.
