Wyla Rólú

Wyla Rólú, 1305-, daughter of Dana Rólú and Rhea Coloa, was a half-orc Consul of Izland, becoming the first Orc Consul and second female consul. She was born and raised in the Five Corners District of Castleton. First she rose to be Minister of the Treasury, before becoming Minister of State, and finally consul. During her electoin the subject of the day was the Ashigan War, which was taking many Izlandian lives.

In her consulship she would end up marrying her co-consul Caesar Izlandus III, and in 1340 they had their first child, Caesar Gara Izlandus-Rólú.

Education in Izland
Whilst before regionally enforced, it was under Wyla Rólú and Caesar Izlandus III that education came to the main front. At first Rólú in 1338 passed the Izlandian Education Bill which granted 250,000 denarii in order to build schools across Izland, and to outfit them with supplies and teachers. Then she made it legal for Izlandian children to attend at least five years of school. Following this her and Izlandus enforced the creation of a University of Castleton, in response soon the North Izland Trading Company made the North Izland College of Economics in Perch, this would expand to encompass many other colleges as time went on, transforming Albin’s Crossing into a great college town. However both of these needed payment to attend. Thus in 1343 it was Rólú who proposed and barely got passed the Publicum Universitas Bill, which not only doubled education funding but also constructed two large Public Universities in Izland, these would be competitive but free, and often favoring those of lower status and wealth. The first was made just south of the Five Corners District. Then the Second was made in the Borough of New Perch. In 1349, under Consul Redgina Balon, a third Public University was made in Capil, and a fourth in the Five Corners District, called the Balon Public University. Additionally, Consul Roro passed a bill which added 150,000 denarii to education funding in 1351.
