Sariyo

Sariyo (2 CE - 11 CE), was a prominent Human Paladin and the founder of the Alliance guild Imperious. A major figure during the "Age of Magister" and Second Great War, he was also a political rival of Magister, and both a political and personal rival of his successor, Heroheim. During the Second Great War he led an unsuccessful preemptive strike against the Horde which resulted in his capture and death and marked the beginning of the Great Purge.

Following the aftermath of the war in which he was killed, Sariyo was succeeded by his longtime Co-Guild Master Darius as Guild Master. He has remained internationally and historically a controversial figure, and Imperious has never achieved the same amount of power or influence it had prior to his death.
