Josthyr (?b - present)

Josthyr was born a mortal in the early Unfallen Era of Old Godsbane. As mankind grew to spread across the face of Godsbane, building cities and cultivating land, Josthyr grew to be a leader among the people of the modern-day Heartlands. Over the years, he steadily rose in the regard of his peers due to his natural talent for task management, problem solving, and innovation. In due time his peers persuaded him to accept the mantle of king, a role which he initially accepted reluctantly, thereby establishing the ancient pre-fall kingdom of Drayth. He served as the well-revered King of Drayth for many centuries until the discovery of divinity magic began to spread throughout the royal courts of the various kingdoms of Godsbane. Upon hearing of this new discovery Josthyr became embittered against the Creator God. He formed the world's first army, subjugated his people into a forced worship of himself, and triggered the Great Gods' War nearly singlehandedly. Upon the dawn of Firstfall he built a new city for himself in what is modern-day Wekela. The city came to be known as Spite's Rest, and from within its walls Josthyr began to reign as king once more, this time as the leader of the House of the Bitter. He resides in Spite's Rest and serves as the leader of the bitter to this day, spending his time manipulating both gods and men alike into betraying one another.
