Rorie I and II (Ruairí Muircheartach Roibeárd MacIconnich, embrianised: Rory Mortimer Robert MacIconnich; April 12, 1670 – August 1, 1714) was King of Scovern as Rorie I from 1696 and High King of Caldia as Rorie II[note 1] from 1702, ruling both countries until his death in 1714. His reign in Scovern oversaw a number of religious and clerical reforms, including the Renovatio Religiosae, ending Taenarianism in Scovern and re-raising the papacy to supreme religious authority in the country.

Rorie was the first son of John Gustaf, Prince of Nyland, himself brother of Olav V of Scovern and prince consort of Caldia as the husband of Mary II of Caldia. Born in St Ellen's Palace, the traditional Caldish royal residence in Spálgleann, Rorie was raised as a Caledonian and educated by many of Caldia's top academics. When Olav died with no living male heir after the death of his son Frederik in a hunting accident in 1694, salic law put Rorie next in line for the throne, ascending in 1696. He was crowned in an elaborate ceremony at Olafsborg, but his religion immediately conflicted with the Scoverne clergy and nobility. Faced with the threat of significant rebellion in Scovern, Rorie enacted the Renovatio Religiosae, which asserted papal authority over matters of faith, morals and administration in religion, also declaring papal decisions ex cathedra infallible and irreplaceable.

Rorie was elected by the Deísi in 1702 as the next High King of Caldia. He inherited the decades-long political strife between Caldia and Gaullica and in 1704 brought both Caldia and Scovern into the Third Gilded War, ultimately losing all of the Caldish colonial empire at the peace in 1708.

Notes

  1. In Caldia, he is often just referred to as Rorie/Rory II.
