Caius' Rebellion

Caius' Rebellion was a peasant revolt in the Second Era. Following many years of tyranny from King Venaros Cuptor of Nibenay, the common folk of the kingdom rose up in arms against their liege. Led by Caius, a strong and charismatic knight of the king's army, the peasants suffered many casualties but eventually managed to overthrow King Venaros. Caius assumed control of the kingdom afterward with overwhelming support. Fearing continued rebellion, the former king's vassals all bent the knee as well, pledging their support and armies.
