That does not give much choice, I go forth in time: Gunthamund
Let me correct that to Thrasamund

Either that or Huneric.

Medieval you got it with Hilderic! Hilderic, Vandal Kingdom AE nummus Obv: HILD [REX], pearl-diademed, draped, cuirassed bust right Rev: Cross potent within wreath, ring above Mint: Carthage (struck 523-530 AD) Ref: BMC Vandals 9 Size: 9 mm wide His grandfather was King Geiseric, who supervised the Vandal migration to North Africa, the capture of Carthage, and the 455 Sack of Rome. Hilderic switched over to Catholic Christianity and convinced other Vandals to do so. In response his cousin Gelimer overthrew him. This action in turn caused the Eastern Roman Empire to launch an invasion of the Vandal Kingdom, wiping it out for good.
