Owyn III (Common: Owyn III; High Imperial: Ovinus III), born as Laurence August Pruvia-Albarosa, was a Kaedreni statesman who now serves as High Pontiff since 1802. Prior to his enthronement, Owyn III was Premier of Kaedrin, Lord-Spiritual of the House of Lords & Prince-Archbishop of Albarosa. He was also an active political commentator on Kaedreni politics, the Kingdom of Hanseti-Ruska & the philosophy of Providence: finding a more moderate tone on his critiques of the latter two as he grew older.

Shortly after his enthronement, Owyn III published the Primus Bulla Aurea Albarosa: where he shrunk a longtime Septarchy into a Pentarchy, radically expanded the Curia, and filled these positions with younger clergymen primarily from Hanseti-Ruska & Providence. However, Cardinal Cyril of Borealis shortly after sought to schism from the Holy Church of the Canon: delaying most of the propositioned reforms.
