Duke '''Conrad''' was the leader of the countries which surrounded the [[city]]-[[state]] of [[Varuz]]. Described by [[Clara Oswald]] as a "calculating, almost predatory" figure, Conrad was fiercely determined to invade and conquer Varuz, and seize control from Duke [[Aurelian]] in the process. | Duke '''Conrad''' was the leader of the countries which surrounded the [[city]]-[[state]] of [[Varuz]].

Unlike the Dukes and Duchesses of Varuz, Conrad was elected as ruler by the vote of the common people; in his view, this made him morally superior to Aurelian and [[Guena]], his counterparts in Varuz.

The countries which Conrad controlled had, in the past, long been controlled by Varuz; after becoming a Duke, he became obsessed with restoring the sovereignty and independence of his nations. | ||
By the time of the [[Twelfth Doctor]] and Clara Oswald's arrival in Varuz, Conrad's invasion was well underway, and he had a vanguard camped in the mountains at the country's border. Conrad sent a group of ambassadors to treat with Aurelian, hoping that Varuz would surrender peacefully, but they never returned. He later learned from Clara and [[Emfil]] that they had been murdered on their journey, possibly by bandits in the mountains. When Clara, Emfil and [[Mikhail (Royal Blood)|Mikhail]] arrived at his camp, following their banishment from Varuz, Conrad agreed to shelter them in exchange for information. Conrad eventually persuaded Mikhail to join his efforts in the invasion. | By the time of the [[Twelfth Doctor]] and Clara Oswald's arrival in Varuz, Conrad's invasion was well underway, and he had a vanguard camped in the mountains at the country's border.

Conrad's army, led by Mikhail, marched on Varuz from the mountains during the time of [[Lancelot (Royal Blood)|Lancelot]]'s quest for the [[Glamour (The Glamour Chronicles)|Glamour]], hoping for a bloodless conquest. Unfortunately, both Lancelot's company and Aurelian's knights were waiting for the invading force, and so a battle commenced. Conrad stayed well away from the forefront of the battle, allowing Mikhail to lead his troops and slay Aurelian in combat. | Conrad's army, led by Mikhail, marched on Varuz from the mountains during the time of [[Lancelot (Royal Blood)|Lancelot]]'s quest for the [[Glamour (The Glamour Chronicles)|Glamour]], hoping for a bloodless conquest.
