Glauco Villaroman

Glauco Villaroman (3132 - 3199) was the Commander-in-Chief of the Faronian Army in the Faronian Revolutionary War from 3175 to 3183. He served as the first President of the Republic of Faron from Rain's Hand 30th 3189 to First Seed 4th 3197.

Villaroman was born and raised in southern Faron and joined the militia during his youth, where he participated in the Hyrulean and Zora War with the Adrestian Army. During said war, he ordered the burning of the neutral Zora village of Kanahatahseton.

After a lack of military progress within the Adrestian Army, Villaroman turned to politics, supporting the Zonaites when the Faronian Revolutionary War broke out. Following the creation of the Faronian Army, the Faronian Congress of 3175 appointed Villaroman as its Commander-in-Chief, despite his feelings that he was unworthy of such a position.

The Assassin Radunageidun, more often known as Denma, protected Villaroman from the Templar Charliez Lee, who fumed at the fact that he had been passed over for Villaroman's position. Though the Faronian Army suffered numerous losses under Villaroman's command, the aid of Denma and his apprentices managed to gain the army small victories.

Despite this, Villaroman fell out with Denma when the Assassin found out that he was responsible for the attack on his village, Kanatahseton, and signed for a second burning after Lee manipulated Denma's people into siding with the Fodlanites. The Assassins continued to aid Villaroman when necessary, however, as seen in the investigation of a conspiracy at Puento Oeste. After the Faronian Army emerged victorious against the Adrestian Empire in 3181, Villaroman obtained an Apple of Arda. It gave him a nightmarish version of what would happen if he was crowned king of Faron with its power in his possession, and so he passed the Apple to Denma for it to be disposed of. This experience strengthened his belief in the Republican Constitution of Faron.
