Carol I was the exception to fine line of Stoinian Monarchs. He was unstable and paranoid and for this reason he was later removed from office by the Military Early Life Carol grew up a luxurious lifestyle. However he didn't much care for the many traditions his father had instilled in him. Reign In 1465 PD the sudden death of Iulian II, left his son Carol the crown. Carol the first was a rather peculiar character. He had rare tastes and reports showed he mauled down animals during hunts, even though this was considered taboo. He also became delusional and paranoid. One of his most memorable acts is calling himself the incarnation of Alexander the Great during a military speech and even forcing people to address him as such. This all would climax when he tried to dissolve the civilian government as he found some evidence that House Thorne may consider a coup against him. This evidence was quickly debunked and the King deemed mad. However he had already sent his troops towards the Capitol. The people however encircled the governmental institutions and formed a human shield. Carol I was quickly dethroned by General Karl Storme and his sister Elena became the first Queen of Stoinia. Death After General Storme revolted and declared the King mad for ordering the dissolvement of the Civilian Government, he marched into the Royal Palace in Sinaia and attempted to arrest the Mad King. However Carol I was able to get hold of a gun and shot himself in the head stating: "A God cannot be killed by a man, nor by your bullets. I shall prove it and show my divine powers as Tenno!" After his death many citizens resented him and especially House Thorne was angry at him as he had unmade their progress to bring stability to their sector Metagaming Facts House Thorne has vowed revenge on the monarchy as King Carol the Mad had accused them of attempting a coup. However because of his rash actions against them, he was quickly apprehended by the military. Carol knew of this because his lover was the daughter of the Grand Duke of Tozoria, whom he had an affair with and told him of the Grand Duke's plan. She knew of certain plans the Grand Duke had that would further strengthen their grip on the smaller houses in the Tozorian Sector to further stabilize the Sector. Carol interpreted this as a coup and gave the smaller houses in the Tozorian Sector financial support to gain more power and granting some families a higher noble rank. This set back the Thornes and thus Lord Ethan Thorne vowed for revenge against House Stoian for this injustice. Centuries have past and the Thornes have regained their grip they once had over the smaller houses. This was also done through criminal activities and is unbeknownst to anyone, except those involved. Thorne is planning to gain more power until one day challenging the King himself for the Throne as compensation for the crimes the Royal House of Stoian had done to his.
