Vari-Castamir Bedroog

Castamir Bedroog or "Castamir the Usurper" is the current leader of the Empire of Umbar, and as such a very influencial human in Europe.

Before he came to rule of Umbar he was the son of the Gondor loyalist mayor Fastiv Bedroog of Umbar, and killed his father in order to faciliate his coming to power in Umbar. A greedy man who hates the way those in mainland Gondor looked down on Umbarians he has come to be a huge thorn in the side of Gondor, and is willing to help anyone who has hostility towards Gondor.
