King Uther Pendragon was the ruler of Logres and member of the Supreme Collegium between 480 and 495. He was also king of Logres, taking on the role after the death of his brother Aurelius Ambrosius.

King Uther died at the infamous feast after the Battle of St Albans. As he died without an heir (except the son which Merlin kidnapped) his crown is currently unclaimed.

Appearance and Personality[]

King Uther had a shock of red hair and a powerful physique. He was a half-hearted British Christian but one with a respect for the Pagan faith - he often consulted Merlin for his wisdom.

History and Family[]

King Uther was married to Lady Ygraine, whom the kign openly lusted after when she was married to one of his vassals.

He had a single bastard son, Sir Madoc, prior to getting married - for a long time he was heir presumptive until his death in 491.

A legitimate son was birthed by Ygraine in 492 but he was kidnapped shortly after birth by Merlin; his whereabouts are unknown.
