==== Earl Ronstudd Sinxth ====

Newly crowned after his effete father's unexpected death from illness, young Ronstudd mounts the Pearl Throne of Port Sinxth with the energy of his paternal grandfather, the adventurer, conqueror, and nobleman [[Donstudd]]. Donstudd's efforts were essential in helping the [[baldwin_iii|House of Gothfrey]] maintain control of the [[kumbrith|High Kingdom of Kumbrith]], by helping the mages of Starkpool defend against chaos and supporting the knights of the [[brotherhood_harken|Holy Brotherhood]] as they moved to the Stakpool reach. 

=== Title ===

The Right Honorable Early Ronstudd Sinxth, grandson of Donstudd, liberator of Frud Gung, dragonslayer, and protector of the Pearl Throne of Port Sinxth. 

Earl Ronstudd was one of the most active leaders of the One-Year War.  He led the first attack of the war, assaulting the Dorgstyn Tower [[t13|Frud Gung]] and capturing it, himself clearing one of the battlements.  After the intervention of the Church, he and [[rockhank|Earl Rockhank]] of Dorgstyn made a joint armed pilgrimage to the [[r3|Holy Tomb]] of Saint Gordon where they defeated [[palance|Evil Jack Palance’s]] attempt to attack them and they discovered that the treacherous Gnome Mayor Marvelous had provoked their war by stealing a sword, erroneously thought to be a Holy Sword from Sinxth’s treasure.  He famously also slew a mighty Dragon in the caverns called the [[c4|Underdoom]], taking away great riches and fame. Finally, he intervened on the side of [[brant|Brant]] in the [[lorn|Lorn]]/Brant conflict.  He was successful at first, capturing 2 Lorn villages, but then was defeated and driven out of the North by [[humbert_of_lorn|Humbert]], with help from some allies from Fang.  Since the war, there has been talk that he would like to retrieve the one true Holy Sword in the region, which St. Gordon revealed to be in the [[land_unknown|Land Unknown]].
