Alexei Amador I

Alexei of House Amador is the second born son of King Romulus III and his Queen Consort, Marguerite of Neville. He was the last Amador King.

Pre-Series
Alexei was born in 873 AA as the second born son of Romulus III and his foreign Queen, Marguerite. He was commander of the Golden Legion. He was said to have been close with his elder brother, Alixander.

The Maverick Uprising began in 891 AA. Small rebellions began to happen and Alexei and his legion were often sent out to crush the uprisings. While Alexei and his legion were in northern lands, Prince Alixander was sent to Mountfort to answer a summon from Lord Duncan who wrote he needed aide in stopping the uprising in Mountfort.

Prince Alixander was betrayed and killed by his cousin, Cornelius of House Maverick. His head and that of Maximus Devereux were displayed on the gates of the city.

Prince Alexei was sent to Mountfort were he sacked the city, he returned his brother's remains to Rosengard to be buried within the Great Cathedral.

Though he was second born, the title of Crown Prince passed onto Alixander's son, Prince Romulus who was barley a year old.

The next tragedy happened in early 892 AA when Alexei fought in the battle of Stoney Lake. He had received word that Cornelius had been spotted with twenty thousand men. Alexei ended up in battle against Lord Remington and five thousand men while Cornelius and fifteen thousand sacked Bauschlyn where the young Crown Prince Romulus resided with his mother.

Cornelius ordered the death of Prince Romulus. The child was thrown from the city walls.

Alexei knew Rosengard was next though he did not reach the city in time before Cornelius. King Romulus III and his youngest son, Aeolous were publicly executed. Queen Marguerite was held captive.

For thirty days, Alexei was known as the true King even though Cornelius had crowned himself in the Great Cathedral. Emotionally defeated after the deaths of his father and brothers, Alexei finally met Cornelius at the battle of Hemsfield. He was defeated and said to have welcomed Cornelius's sword.

Burial
Alexei's body was placed in the Great Cathedral for seven days and seven nights before he was entered into the Amador Vault. It is said Cornelius wished for the people to know that the last of the Amadors were truly gone. Many people mourned their fallen King.

Broken Crown
Alexei was said to have discharged Alec Devereux from the Golden Legion to travel to Durann where his sister, Alienor and her son and his only heir were kept. He charged Alec to take Matthias into safety, preferably the Empire of Neville.
