Markus Pentaghast

Markus Pentaghast is the current King of Nevarra.

Background
Markus Pentaghast, the current ruler of the Nevarra, is an aged man of weak health and uncertain sanity. His rule has been condemned by those who claim his Mortalitasi advisers are ruling through him, much as Ionas, whom the Pentaghasts deposed, did long ago.

Markus is childless, as his younger brother Ferdinand, who is uninterested in the throne. Pentaghast and Van Markham relatives are already vying to replace the Markus upon his inevitable death, though some nobles families believe it time for both families to step aside to make way for a new dynasty.
