| |
|
| |
| Daeron was born in King's Landing as the youngest son of [[Queen Elisa I]] and Prince Justyn Tully of Riverrun. At an early age, he moved to [[Jackacity]] where he received a formal education along side Daniel Morsehead (the incumbent C.E.O of [[Chisel Enterprises]]). In 1576, an outbreak of a strand of the plague burnt through King's Landing, killing thousands, including Queen Elisa and the heir, Daeron's older brother, Jaehaerys.
| |
|
| |
| In 1579, Daeron secured the throne of Bonitana, being the first King to officially hold the title. However, in 1580 he lost the throne to the Usurper King Edgar following the [[Sack of King's Landing]]. He attempted to retake the crown, however failed at the [[Battle of Stokeworth]], losing his life.

| |
| == Early Life ==
| |
| Daeron's early life was uneventful, his father raised him to be a sword wielder, and is reportedly very capable with a bow and arrow. However at the age of 11, Daeron was sent away by his mother to receive a formal education outside of Estyn. This was the first time a member of the royal family had ever left the continent for education and so Daeron became friends with many world leaders, such as Daniel Morsehead and the Prime Minister of [[Novenae]].
| |
|
| |
| Prior to his succession to the throne, he married Lady Emilia Arynn, now Queen Emilia, and had two sons; Tommen and Henry (aged 8 and 5 respectively). Prince Tommen was the heir and, since Daeron's crowning as King, the Lord of Dragonstone (the traditional title for the heir to the throne).

| == Reign ==
| |
|
| |
| === Coronation and succession ===
| |
| Following the death of Queen Elisa I, Daeron was crowned Daeron, first of his name. Due to the health risk, he spent the first several months of his reign on Dragonstone, the ancestral home of the Osborn-Brooks House. He was coronated in the Red Keep, just like every other King since Arthur I, however did not stay in the city. Reports differ, however many state that he did not return to the capital following this, living between homes in Wiltshire and Dragonstone.
| |
|
| |
| === Early Reign ===
| |
| Daeron I's early reign is notable for his claiming of the Kingdom of Bonitana. King Viserys I was the first to claim the throne of Bonitana, however since then the claim has gone unnoticed, until in 1579 when President Antonio Tiger of Bonitana bent the knee to Daeron I. This achievement made him very popular.
| |
|
| |
| === Bonitana ===
| |
| In 1579, Daeron I announced his intention to seek the throne of Bonitana, as an ancestral acquisition. Daeron was heavily criticised by many both in and out of the kingdoms due to the increased risk of war. However, Daeron managed to secure the throne without a major war, becoming the first officially recognised 'King of Bonitana'.
| |
|
| |
| Shortly following the crowning, Daeron appointed Lord Heinreich Totenkopf to serve as the Lord of Bonitana and Warden of the East. Lord Totenkopf was the first non Ester to serve as a major Lord/Lady.
| |
|
| |
| === Communist Attacks ===
| |
| In 1580, Communists attacked a number of targets throughout Estyn. Most notably was the blaze of King's Landing, where Communists burnt the Red Keep, killing Queen Emilia. Other targets include the Great Chapel and The Royal Bank of Estyn.
| |
|
| |
| === Edgar and the Sack of King's Landing ===
| |
| King Daeron's position as King was threatened when [[King Edgar I|Edgar Waters]], the bastard grandson of King Viserys II, claimed the throne. His claim was initially laughed at, however when it received the support of Houses Glover, Manderly and Karstark the claim was taken more seriously.
| |
|
| |
| In early 1580, [[King Edgar I|Edgar]] marched on King's Landing. The Battle was a long and bloody one, with tens of thousands dying in and out of battle. The event became known as the [[Sack of King's Landing]] as Edgar's forces pillaged much of the city before conquering the Red Keep.
| |
|
| |
| Following the [[Sack of King's Landing]], Daeron garrisoned at Duskendale. His final attempt to retake the crown came in the [[Battle of Stokeworth]], when Ser Fredrick Karstark killed Daeron in a trial by combat. This ended his reign, and cemented Edgar as [[King Edgar I|King Edgar I Osborn-Brooks]].
