Lord Steward Atlacan Huicintli is the governor-in-exile of the city-state of Atzocan in the Sun Empire on Ixalan.[1] An illegitimate son of Emperor Apatzec Intli II, he was the half-brother of Apatzec Intli III and is the uncle and majordomo of Emperor Apatzec Intli IV.[2][3]
History
Atlacan was an illegitemate son of Emperor Apatzec Intli II and Apatzec Intli III's favorite brother.[1] As part of Intli III's will, the emperor named Atlacan a "paper son," officially recognizing him as part of the Imperial dynasty — albeit still unable to inherit the throne.[3] Atlacan has used his experience in the clandestine management of the three major families of Atzocan — the Cabrana, Palani, and Cuitzan houses — to ensure his power in the new Imperial court. As the majordomo and closest person to a friend the new emperor has, Atlacan Huicintli is a powerful broker, one who is said to be the true brilliance behind the throne.
Atlacan is charged with ruling over the day-to-day of Pachatupa as the capital moves to Orazca.[2] He is the main force behind the plans for a new invasion of Torrezon, but finds opposition in his niece and adopted sister Caztaca Huicintli, the Apex Priestess of the Threefold Sun.
