Connor Mac Lyrr

From King's Quest Omnipedia

Connor Mac Lyrr is a tanner and artist who lives in a small village outside of Daventry (meaning the castle most likely). Despite his humble class, he is brave and noble. Connor had a girlfriend, Sarah. When the Mask of Eternity was broken, a shard fell on his feet, and this prevented the spell from turning him into stone like everyone else. The Mask had chosen him to be the Champion Eternal, the Deliverer, the Enlightened One, and the True Upholder. Traveling through many realms, he managed to reach the Realm of the Sun and reunite the pieces, returning life to Daventry.

Connor was the Deliverer of the Dimension of Death, by balancing the Scales of Justice freeing Lord Azriel from his imprisonment, and healing the Sacred Heart, stopping the bloodletting.

Connor's future is unknown, and it is implied that he may have remained in the Realm of the Sun among the Archons.

[edit] Connor in the Unofficial Games

KQ2+ suggests that he returned to Daventry and knighted by King Graham, and possibly becoming his heir. Though the official King's Quest Companion implies that Rosella along with Edgar would remain the heirs of Daventry.

According to The Silver Lining he no longer lives in the realm of the sun, he married Sarah, and was knighted as the new Captain of the Royal Guard, thanks to his actions of saving the kingdom.
