Justinius

Justinius was an ancient Pre-Men king during the First Era. He led the first adventures off of the continent of Primron and sailed east, landing on the western coast of what became known as Highvale. He and his followers waged war against the native Orc chiefdoms, driving them away from the coast. On the landing spot, the city known as Romulshazd was founded, and was made the capital of his ancient kingdom. Hearing the success of his landing, more and more Pre-Men from Primron sailed to join him, sparking the first major migration to Highvale. He is regarded as the founding father of all Valemen.

Over time, the king's deeds have been exaggerated by myth. The Third Era Empire of Man holds Justinius in high-regard, a shining example of what a man can do, though the previous fusion of Justinius and the high god of the Valemen Pantheon has been eliminated, as part of the Empire's general downplaying of the Pantheon in favor of human heroes.
