But he doesn't like lutefisk.

He has upheld a distinguished heritage.

In 595 AD his ancestor Rover Karlsson managed to get Hrothgar re-elected Thane of Denmark despite the fact that his mead-hall had been nearly destroyed in a surprise attack by the monster Grendel, with numerous peasants and warriors killed while Hrothgar's own treasure stash was mysteriously left untouched.

In 981 AD, Great-great-great-etc-grandfather Harald Rovesson convinced Erik Thorvaldson ("the red") to sail to the New World, telling him it was full of grapes and wine and the natives would be overjoyed to be liberated and adopt the Viking lifestyle.

In 1068 AD, distant uncle Roger le Normand (a corruption of Rover) besieged and conquered Palermo and established the kingdom of Sicily. He wrote a manual of instructions for government, the original of which has been passed down from generation to generation of Roves, with detours to Italy (Rovero Borgia), Russia (Romanov was originally Roveroff) and various Mafia dons before landing in Karl's hands.
