Sven Eiriksson Ruric was selected as King by Kingsmoot after the abdication of his father, [[Eirik Thorsson Ruric]], in 1551. He was succeeded by his son [[Thomas I of Norland|Thomas Ruric]]. During his father's reign, Sven pursued the life of a Bard, and spread word across Norland of the virtues of the arts, leading to further growth in his own rule. Late in his life, Sven was declared a [[Paragon]] of the [[Red Faith]], specifically in relation to the arts, music, and celebrations.
