* Game of Thrones ( TV series ), 2013 as Thoros of Myr

His companion Thoros of Myr accidentally revives him with magic during the funeral service.

Thoros is a red priest of R ' hllor from the city of Myr.

In 1157, he began raiding Byzantine territories around Marash against his half-brother Thoros ' will, although he failed to capture Marash itself.

) Thoros of Marash ( according to Rüdt-Collenberg, he was the brother of Constantine I ; it is not known what evidence this claim is based on but it should be treated with caution )

Rebuilt by the emperor Justin I after an earthquake in the 6th century, it became Justinopolis ( 525 ); but the old native name persisted, and when Thoros I, king of Lesser Armenia, made it his capital early in the 12th century, it was known as Anazarva.

The remains of the acropolis fortifications are very interesting, including roads and ditches hewn in the rock ; but beyond ruins of two churches, a gatehouse, and a fine keep built by Thoros I There are no notable structures in the upper town.

All the towns and cities of Cilicia fell to Manuel immediately, and Thoros himself was forced to flee into the mountains at the last moment: he is said to have survived by sheltering alone under rocks on a hillside, where an old shepherd would bring him food to keep him alive.

Thoros was a Christian of Armenian origin but of Greek Orthodox religion and was largely disliked by his Armenian Orthodox subjects ; in March 1098 he was assassinated or abdicated ( here historians conflict ), although it is unknown if Baldwin had any part in whichever of the two options did happen.

The throne of Armenia had changed hands multiple times during Leo's brief lifetime, being held variously by his uncle Hethum II in 1295, passed peacefully to his father Thoros III in 1296, then usurped by another uncle Sempad, who was usurped by his brother Constantine III of Armenia, who himself was deposed by his brother Hethum II in 1299.

Thoros was murdered, strangled to death on July 23, 1298 in Bardzrberd by Oshin, Marshal of Armenia, on Sempad's orders.

Other authors ( e. g., Jacob G. Ghazarian, Vahan M. Kurkjian ) suggest that Thoros I died without a male heir and was directly succeeded by Leo.

Whatever the conditions in which Thoros entered Cilicia, he found it occupied by many Greek garrisons.

Emperor Manuel I Comnenus, unhappy with Thoros ’ s progress in the areas still claimed by the Byzantine Empire, sought peaceful means to settle his conflict with Thoros, but his attempts bore him no fruits.

The recovery before 1150 of the Taurus fortresses by Thoros had not seriously affected Greek power, but his conquest of Mamistra in 1151 and the rest of Cilicia in 1152 had necessitated a great expedition.

As a result, during the course of the next 20 years there were no less than three separate military campaigns launched by the emperor against Thoros, but each campaign was only able to produce a limited success.

In 1151, while the Byzantines were distracted by the Moslem attack on Turbessel, Thoros swept down into the Cilician plain and defeated and slew the Byzantine governor, Thomas, at the gates of Mamistra.

Andronicus Comnenus ’ s mission was such an opportunity but it was not an occasion for glory: many of their numbers were killed by Thoros ’ s aggressive strategy, and many more were taken into captivity.

However, the ensuing Seljuk attack, which in fact was provoked by an Armenian raid into Seljuk lands in Cappadocia in the winter of 1154, was routed successfully by Thoros in collaboration with a contingent of the Knights Templar.

Around that time ( in 1164 or in 1167 ) Thoros visited Jerusalem and suggested the colonization of a large number of Armenians ; but the Latin prelates forced King Amalric I to refuse the offer by their insistence that they should pay the dime ( a special tax ).

In the battle, Bohemond III fell into an ambush and found himself and his knights surrounded by the army of Mosul, but Thoros II and Mleh, who had been more cautious, escaped from the battlefield.

Other historians ( e. g., Jacob G. Ghazarian, Vahan M. Kurkjian ) suggest that Thoros I died without a male heir and was succeeded by Leon I.

Roupen was the son of Thoros II, lord of Armenian Cilicia, by his second wife ( and great niece ) whose name is unknown.

As shown by the video, the Doctor and Peri arrive on Thoros Beta, the Doctor's curiosity piqued on the availability of advanced weaponry by the Warlords of Thordon.

In 1168, Emperor Manuel I, obsessed with his dilemma with Thoros, marched his armies into Cilicia for the third time under the command of Konstantinos Kalamanos.

Toros I (), also Thoros I, ( unknown – 1129 / February 17, 1129 – February 16, 1130 ) was the third lord of Armenian Cilicia or “ Lord of the Mountains ” ( c. 1100 / 1102 / 1103 – 1129 / 1130 ).

* July 23 – King Thoros III of Armenia ( b. c. 1271 )

In the winter of 1158 – 59, he marched to Cilicia at the head of a huge army ; the speed of his advance ( Manuel had hurried on ahead of the main army with 500 cavalry ) was such that he managed to surprise the Armenian Thoros of Cilicia, who had participated in the attack on Cyprus.

Another invitation came from Thoros of Edessa, where Baldwin was adopted as Thoros ' son and successor.

When Thoros was assassinated in March 1098, Baldwin became the first count of Edessa, although it is unknown if he played any role in the assassination.

He ruled the county until 1100, marrying Arda, the daughter of Thoros of Marash, and acting as an ambassador between the crusaders and Armenians.

Years before the game begins, Thoros, the latest ruler, finds it near impossible to choose between his two sons as the next ruler.

There, he convinced its lord, Thoros, to adopt him as a son and heir.

In 1266, while their father king Hetoum I was away to visit the Mongol court, Leo and his younger brother Thoros fought to repel Mamluk invaders, at the Battle of Mari.

Thoros was killed in combat, and Leo, along with 40, 000 other Armenian soldiers was captured and imprisoned.

The eldest, Hetoum II of Armenia, abdicated after four years in favor of his younger brother Thoros III of Armenia, but was placed back on the throne in 1294.

In 1296, their brother Sempad of Armenia strangled Thoros and blinded Hetoum, in order to seize power.

# Thoros III ( b. October 1270 – murdered 23 July 1298 ), King of Armenia ( ruled 1293 to 1298 ).

In 1293, Hethum abdicated in favor of his brother Thoros III and entered the Armenian monastery of Mamistra.

In 1295, Thoros III asked Hethum to resume the throne to help renew the Mongol alliance.

Hethum and Thoros placed Armenia under the regency of their brother Sempad, and traveled to Constantinople to bestow their sister Rita upon the Byzantine Emperor Michael IX Palaeologus.

Hethum and Thoros were both captured in Caesarea upon their return, and imprisoned in the fortress of Partzerpert.

Thoros was murdered in Partzerpert in 1298 ; but Constantine turned against Sempad, usurped the throne for himself, imprisoned Sempad and freed Hethum.

His brother Thoros III having been killed in 1298, Hethum passed the crown to Thoros's teenaged son, Leo III.

A member of the Hethumid dynasty, he was the son of Thoros III of Armenia and Margaret of Lusignan, who was the daughter of King Hugh III of Cyprus.
