Hamanu
From UTRPG
King Hamanu, the ruler of Urik, is also known as the King of the World, King of the Mountains and the Plains, the Lion King, the Lion of Urik, The Great King, King of Athas, The Troll Scorcher, The Destroyer of Yaramuke, you get the point...
In his own words:
I am Hamanu, King of the World, King of the Mountains and the Plains, King of Urik, for whom the roaring winds and the all-mighty sun have decreed a destiny of heroism, and to whom the lifegiving waters and the nourishing soils have trusted the mightiest City of Athas. The Great Spirits of the bountiful lands raised me from my childhood, instructing me in the art of war, how to give the signal for the skirmish, and when to draw up the line of battle. They made my arms powerful against my enemies, who have always been many, and gave me weapons to strike off the heads of those whom I fight. They made of me a man who cannot be killed, and a general who cannot be defeated.
I am Hamanu of Urik, The Great King, The Mighty King, King of the World, King of Athas, an unrivaled potentate who holds sway from the great Ringing Mountains to the shores of the endless Sea of Silt, the bringer of death and peace, to whom all must submit.
Okay, now you get the point :)
Also no one has ever seen a troll, and literate adventurers have discovered the ruins of a city destroyed centuries ago ... called Yaramuke.
Like the Father of Life, Hamanu is frequently seen in public, daily drilling with his loyal soldiers, and even those who have never met him know what he looks like, since his likeness is all over Urik. Hamanu has no compunctions about personally dealing with adversaries, often without bothering to resort to spells. He loves crushing heads.
Hamanu's ego and ambition exceed his resources. He hasn't finished building his palace, Destiny's Kingdom, which has undergone construction over the past several centuries. It's also too big to adequately guard.
