Changed the established religion of Britain from Druidism to Christianity.
Lleuver Mawr (Lucius the Great), the Second Blessed Sovereign (Cadwalader was the Third Blessed Sovereign), was baptized by his father's first cousin, St. Timothy, who suffered martyrdom at age 90 on August 22, 139. When, in 170 AD Lucius succeeded to the throne of Britain he became the first Christian king of the world. He married Gladys, daughter of Eurgen, granddaughter of Marius and his wife, the daughter of Boadicea (Victoria). Lucius founded the frist church at Llandaff and changed the established religion of Britain from Druidism to Christianity. He died in 181, leaving only one child, a daughter, Gladys.

There is doubt that Lucius was a "real" person. Some believe that he has been confused with (created from?) Lucius Aelius Septimius Megas Abgarus IX
