Alric Valkord

Grand Magus, Emperor Alric Valkord was the oldest and longest ruling Emperor of the Velha Empire. He had the greatest number of children of any Velhanni ruler, 23, which isn't that surprising considering the number of concubines the emperor kept in his younger years. In his later years the emperor put most of the responsibilities of the throne into the hands of his eldest sons.

He spends most of his time now, when he is not on the Prismatic Throne, overseeing the training of his youngest children in the arcane arts. The five most elite and well trained of the Silvercrown Riders protect the emperor at all times.
