His brown hair is smoother than his brothers' and better tended, oiled, and often scented. He also dresses more finely than his brothers. Appearances are important to him.

King Regal

He was irresponsible as a Farseer monarch, taking an unusually hard line with criminals. He created the King's Circle, a gladiator ring of sorts that pitted any willing warrior or criminal agaisnt a Forged one.
