King William

King William was the fifth king of Atlantis and the predecessor to the current king, Astridian II. He reigned from 1939 until 1985, when after the hoarding of food brought upon a rebellion, he was overthrown.

Pre-ASFS
In 1939, William ascended to the throne following the assassination of his predecessor, Merliniad III. During his time as king, William was credited with informing President Truman of the existence of witches, a tradition which was then passed on until 2017.

In 1984, The Atlantis Rebellion broke out due to food shortages in Atlantis, led by Astridian II. A year later, William was successfully overthrown and presumably killed. Astridian then took over as king of Atlantis.
