King Patrick III (Patricus Julius Velucianus Carolinicus; 10 January 1841 - 13 January 1917), known as The Desired, was Apostolic King of Urcea beginning with the restoration at the end of the Red Interregnum until his death. At the time of his ascension, he was among the oldest Princes of Halfway to ever become King. Born as the heir apparent to King Aedanicus VIII, Patrick had a close relationship with his father which also included elements of tutelage, and the Prince of Halfway would, as he grew, adopt his father's reform-oriented mindset. Beginning in 1889, in his late 40s, Patrick went into exile in Burgundie as power in Urcea was seized by Gréagóir FitzRex, who refused to allow him to be crowned. In the years of the regency prior the beginning of the Red Interregnum, Patrick publicly asserted his rights, forming something of a court in exile.

Following his restoration, King Patrick embarked on a series of reforms designed on settling the Constitution of Urcea and physically rebuilding the nation. His military reforms have lead to him being credited as the father of the Royal Air Force and modern Royal Navy, as his interest in the new technology of airships and advancements in naval technology, respectively, lead to a major military buildup that left Urcea largely prepared to fight the Great War. The reign of Patrick III is unique due to the extensive powers wielded during The Enabling period between 1903 and 1905, making him the last Apostolic King of Urcea to use considerable direct power in governing the country.
