-'''Casca the Royal Prosecutor''' was a Britannian politician.  As the name implies, he began his Career in public life as a prosecutor, though he was eventually rise to the Throne of Britannia through murder, trickery, deceit, and associations with the evil [[Shadowlords]].
+'''Casca''' was a Britannian politician, an [[Elf]], and a key villain in the epic [[Warriors of Destiny]] event cycle.  He began his Career in public life as a prosecutor, progressed to Ambassador, to member of the [[Ruling Council]], and then finally, through a series of horrifying events, to the very Throne of Britannia, becoming the first monarch since [[Lord British]].  He was eventually revealed to be in league with the evil [[Shadowlords]], and was slain by [[Dawn]], who came to succeed him on the Throne.
-Casca first came to prominence through his prosecution of [[Ricardo the Thief]].  During this time he could be located by players at the [[Court of Truth]] in [[Yew]].
+==Rise to Prominence==
-After his success in prosecuting Ricardo (which involved some complicated strategic, last-minute legal maneuvering wherein Casca dropped most of the charges against Ricardo AFTER evidence had been presented), Casca was made an ambassador.  He was eventually put on the [[Ruling Council]], and became the only member of that Council (excepting [[Sherry the Mouse]] who went missing) to survive [[Royal Council Massacre]] event that dominated the [[Hope for the Future]] Chapter of the [[Warriors of Destiny]] event cycle.  He was, however, apparently kidnapped by the killers, and rescued by the players.  He fingered [[Avery]] as being one of the villains.  It is worth noting, however, that Avery was dressed in rags when players found him, whereas Casca was still dressed in fine clothes.
+The article on Ricardo contains a transcript of the trial.  Casca won a great victory that day, but it was in large part due to an uncaring judge, an inept defense attorney, and (mostly) some clever, complicated last-minute legal maneuvering wherein Casca dropped most of the charges against Ricardo '''after''' evidence had already been presented.
 (Also see [[Casca the Ambassador]], for the Casca-related key words during the [[Royal Council Massacre]] investigation event.)
-By virtue of being the only high official left alive, Casca basically was in charge of the Britannian government, running it from behind the scenes, until January 2009 when he was named the new king of Britannia, becoming Britannia's first monarch since [[Lord British]] departed some years prior.  Supposedly, Casca's actual title was "King Pro Tempere" (Temporary King), but subsequent events revealed his true plans.
+==Casca, the King==
-Casca made [[Blackthorn]]'s castle his home and working space.  He stated that he was appointed by a newly-reconstituted Ruling Council, but would never say who was on the Council.
+Casca made [[Blackthorn]]'s castle his home and working space.  He stated that he was appointed by a newly-reconstituted Ruling Council, but would never say who was on the Council.  Either he appointed himself, being the last surviving member of the Council, or he was appointed by a new Council that would by definition have been appointed in haste, and over the members of which he would have had considerable sway.
-As King, Casca was played by the [[Event Moderator]]s of each [[Shard]], and thus his personality differed somewhat, shard-to-shard.  In general, however, it can be said that Casca on all shards sought to consolidate power swiftly and completely, and to appoint a new commander of the [[Royal Guard]] as fast as possible.  On at least two shards ([[Lake Superior]] and [[Europa]]), Casca at first outlawed all local governments (which are of course run by players), but on LS at least backed off somewhat from this under pressure.
+As King, Casca was played by the [[Event Moderator]]s of each [[Shard]], and thus his personality differed somewhat, shard-to-shard.  In general, however, it can be said that Casca on all shards sought to consolidate power swiftly and completely, and to appoint a new commander of the [[Royal Guard]] as fast as possible.  On at least two shards ([[Lake Superior]] and [[Europa]]), Casca at first outlawed all local governments (which are of course run by players).  On [[Great Lakes]], Casca sought to curry favor with the people by handing out cake and other treats.  On [[Catskills]] he revealed himself to be a persuasive, if snaky, speaker.
 Players' reactions to him can also be said to have varied, indeed they varied rather widely.
-As Casca's reign progressed, his evil nature became more and more obvious.  On the Great Lakes, shard, for example, he was behind a series of horrible events (including but not limited to constant attacks on that shard's [[High Council]]), and instituted a series of draconian laws.  On most shards he appeared to be making a conscious attempt to kill [[Sherry the Mouse]], the last living link to [[Lord British]] apart from the absent [[Dawn]], whom he later attempted to assassinate along with her entire family (through arson).
+Casca's reign was doubtlessly dominated by the ongoing events of the [[Warriors of Destiny]] event cycle, including but not limited to the [[War of Shadows]], the death of [[Clainin]] (see [[Cloak and Dagger]]), and his falsely claiming credit for ending the Shadowlord invasions (see [[Fire and Ice]]).
-Casca was eventually revealed to be in league with the [[Shadowlords]].  He was eventually killed by Dawn, who had taken his place as Britannia's Monarch after the revelation of his alliance with the Shadowlords forced him to flea the realm.
+As Casca's reign progressed, his evil nature became more and more obvious.  He had clearly been behind many of the evil events of the last few years, or at least a major player in them, and had most decidedly not been in any way seeking to end them.
-For better and worse, mostly worse, Casca's place in history is secure as the 2nd Monarch of Britannia.  His brutal, terrifying reign was, thankfully, short.
+On the Great Lakes, shard, for example, he was behind a series of horrible events (including but not limited to constant attacks on that shard's [[High Council]]), and instituted a series of draconian laws.  (For example, the law of "Justice" called for an accused who did not plead guilty to receive a harsher sentence upon conviction; and no one was ever acquitted.  The law of "Valor" made retreat form any battle punishable by death.)  On most shards he appeared to be making a conscious attempt to kill [[Sherry the Mouse]], one of the last living links to [[Lord British]].  He also made an attempt to kill the long-absent [[Dawn]] and her husband, by burning down her house in [[Yew]].
