Rogu of Runhalla: First High King of Syoshen Vukh. Defeated a Dundanite client king in 253 pK, effectively halting Dundanite expansion over the peninsula, and declared himself High King in 248. All kings of Siocaea are descended from Rogu.
Rucio I: First Rafadian-descended King of Siocaea, whose coronation is commemorated as Kingdom Year I. As he married into the line of Rogu under dubious circumstances, Boghen patriots consider Rucio I a usurper.
