| '''Villy Esposito''' ([[Elw language|Elw]]: Вили Еспосито, ''Vili Esposito''; born ''Vilhjálm Daniel Gudrödar Ayreon-Kalirion af Ettlingum Freyum ibn al-Majeed bin Sathrati of Waffel-Paine'' in [[Teldrin]] in [[Goldshire]] on 19 Qinamu 1635) is the firstborn son of the presently exiled and deposed [[Noah of Elwynn]] and the fifth son born to the late [[Kaiseress Noor]]. He was the ruling [[Prince of Elwynn|Prince of the Elwynnese Republic]] in 1653, having stepped down as [[King of Elwynn]] (disputed by his father), a position he held 1651–1653. Shamed by his blood, he relinquished all his titles and freedom in 1653, took on the name Villy, and made himself a loyal subject of the Kaiser under King [[Ryker Everstone]].

| Vilhjalm Daniel Gudrödar – who was named after [[shire:Vilhjalm Kormak|Vilhjalm Kormak]], Prince [[Daniel Kalirion]] and High King [[Harald Thorstein|Harald]]'s father – lived a sheltered life. He endured an intellectually stunted childhood which focused on the Froyalanish obsession with royal pageantry, falcon hunting, dressing up in expensive clothes and taking part in royal ceremonies. His carefree life took a turn to the worst in 1651 after his father was forceably exiled (find wiki link to events). Vilhjalm was captured by the [[shire:Dark Orchid Society|Dark Orchid Society]] and the [[ESB-Jörmungandr Group]], who subsequently transferred him to the custody of the [[shire:Imperial Forces|Imperial Forces]] and the [[shire:State Law & Order Restoration Council|State Law & Order Restoration Council]] (SLORC). The SLORC subsequently recognised his right to rule after examining him and finding him to be merely a callow youth with no daemonic taint. He subsequently assumed the Elwynnese throne as king, a fact that was disputed by his father in exile.

| | |
| In 1656, he approached the Elwynnese senate to request a decree that annulled the marriage between his parents. The petition was granted, and subsequently he and his sister [[Esther Esposito|Esther]] lost their rights to the estate of Noor and all rights of nobility. Consequently he and Esther were given the bastard surname ''Esposito'' (Tellian for "exposed"), which in Shirerithian tradition is given to caste-shamed deposed individuals from the nobility.

| ==Reign ==
| |
| | |
| As king of Elwynn, Vilhjalm was charged with all executive, legislative and judicial powers if exercised through the advice [[Council of Eliria]]. He appointed the SLORC troika King [[Ryker Everstone]] of [[Goldshire]], [[shire:Jeremy Archer|Jeremy Archer]] and [[shire:Heath Belledin|Heath Belledin]] to the [[Council of Eliria]], effectively giving this troika full power over Elwynn.

| Underwent voluntary castration in the year 1653, in obedience to the Edict of the Kaiser ordering the castration of all male Froyalaners and out of sorrow at being disowned by [[shire:Noah Hallbjörnsson|his father]] and [[shire:Hallbjörn Haraldsson|grandfather]], who now reviled him as a usurper and had even claimed that he was a false pretender installed by the Imperial Government.<Ref>A scandalous and unwarranted calumny, naturally.</ref>
| |
| | |
| His reign ended in 1653 by the adoption of the 1653 [[Constitution of the Elwynnese Republic]] (which formed the basis for the 1671 one). He was a transitory head of state of the republic as Prince of Elwynn until the Senate elected a replacement later the same year ([[Liv Dravot]]), whereafter he retired from politics, resigned all his noble and other titles, and declared himself a loyal subject of the Kaiser under King Ryker Everstone, becoming effectively Ryker's property.
