King Leik
Reigning King of Lineus, Leik Seventeenth of his Name is feared by all the right people. His rule is steady, even if his insatiate appetites drain the citys coffers, in great part thanks to his ability to navigate the rocks and shoals of Lineus diplomacy. Rumors persisted of the kings womanizing habits and his spendthrift ways.
Historian edicts proclaim Leik "The Saffron King", likening his reign to one of abundance, in which honey and spice flood the markets. The citys downtrodden have another name for him, thoughthe Stirge King, a man whose squandering ways are slowly bleeding his City and his Kingdom dry.
In recent months however, King Leik XVII seems to have lost his touch... He has spent the last several weeks in seclusion in Castle Korvosa, and despite the work and discretion of his staff, rumors of his ill health are spreading.
