Casimir III (5 February 1169 - 12 November 1234) was the King of Solarius (1207-1215) during the Umbram Era (1142-1215). He is the first and only Solarian Monarch that suffered from Down Syndrome. Casimir was an naive ruler where he had trusted too many corrupt people, giving money to the rich, and allowing separatist movements to grow. His laws were not enforced and the lack of care for the state made some of his "friends" worried about the Nation's future. One of his friends he gave money to was Count Milos of Mesolos, which in 1215, overthrew Casimir and installed himself as King. This marked the Era known as Proditio Virtutis (1215-1290)

Casimir was a playwriter and wrote some of the most famous plays of the Era. His work on the play, In oculis nubilum (The cloudy eyes), was a best seller and is still one of the most famous plays in Solarius, especially in rural communities.

Early Life

Casimir Celestia was born to Princess Junea and Richard Lamus during the reign of his great-grandfather, King Jae-Seo II. It was soon realized that the newborn prince had Down Syndrome. The Father, Prince Richard Lamus despised his son and never saw him up until his 15th birthday. Casimir was primarily cared for by the Royal Nurse, Sir Louis Nemi, who would be a father figure to Casimir all his life. As a child up till his 15th Birthday, Casimir was taught at the Royal School of Princes. There, he learned to read and write but was lacking a little behind his other friends. He made up for it with his wit, getting out of trouble by making up partially-believable stories that could be backed up by paid witnesses. Though he lacked in his writing skills, through time, he became an excellent writer. He became enthralled with poems and plays. His mother encouraged him to pursue his passion and got him to join the Writers Circle at only 14 years old.

Dissolution with Politics

Even though Casimir wasn't told about the politics in the court, he was informed by his Half-Brother, Avedis Celestia, that the courts were corrupt. Casimir never wanted to be King, thinking of it as an undesirable position that required no hard work and dedication to succeed it. He had told his mother, the Queen, that he would want his younger half-brother, Avedis, to succeed her as King. Junea denied his request stating: "In time, you will see that being King is your destiny, and I hope that you will fulfill the role and make the people your friends." This was a turning point in Casimir's life and he took his mother's words to heart, possibly too literally. At the age of 15, Casimir graduated from the Royal School of Princes and decided to join the army to help his nation out.
