The King of Oren (High Imperial: Rex Orenorum, literally: "King of the Humans") is the ruler of the Kingdom of Oren, at other times styled King of the Orenians. It only exists as a primary title in times when there is no Holy Orenian Emperor, and as a result, can be considered the less prestigious variant of that title. Generally, kings of Oren have wielded less power than emperors. However, this has not always necessarily been the case. Orenian tradition has it that Horen was the first King of Oren.
The title has come in and out of existence a number of times and has been held by a number of different dynasties, including members of House Horen, Carrion, Savoy, Perea, Sheffield, Vydra, and Novellen.
It was, until recently, held by the Holy Orenian Emperors in conjunction with their imperial title, however, the Kingdom of Oren is once more an independent state, with the Empire being defunct.
