Kaiser Leto III or Leto III Ozymandias the desired (later Leto the Bold), of the Line of Win'Eth, was the 106th Kaiser of Shireroth. Before his ascension to the kaisership, he was Shireroth's richest man at the time. He purchased the kaisership from his predecessor, Kaiser Aurangzeb.

Home politics

Rebellions and controversy

From the start of his rule, Leto was faced with the rebellious Baron of Dolor, Erik Mortis. His attempts to knock down the rebellion was not well received by the Baron. There even were rumours that he had plotted the failed murder attempts during the coronation of the Kaiser.

Leto's policies, including the move of the Shirerithian capital from Shirekeep to the Elwynnese city of Eliria and the change of the flag, were met with hostilities. His lack of debate about what seemed meaningless subjects in the eyes of the Kaiser often resulted in big arguments between the Kaiser and his proponents.

A coup d'état by Goldshirians near the end of Leto's reign was avoided by a quick swift in power in which Leto was murdered by Malarborists (members of a Cedrist cult around Malarbor), who proclaimed a kaisership under Kaiser Malarbor (in effect, power held by Erik Mortis)

Foreign politics

Coronation of Leto III in Raynor's Keep.

Leto III followed the same foreign policy as his predecessors, with Kaiseress Anandja I as great example: a peaceful way of diplomacy. He succeeded in his mission to keep peace with other nations, but within Shireroth there existed unhappiness with the Kaiser's ideas (or the lack of ideas).
