- Decimius

Decimius is a male Libertus that serves as a captain in the Imperial Navy of the Galactic Empire of Cyrannus. A native of Cyranduas in the Cyrannus Galaxy, Decimius was brought up as a lover of freedom and democracy and in his adult life, he became a ruthless yet respected captain in the United Republic of Cyrannus. When the Galactic Empire of Cyrannus was formed, Decimius retained his title of captain, becoming one of the most respected officers in the Imperial Order.

Decimius is a brilliant tactician in battle and cares deeply about those who serve under him. When the Empire was formed, Decimius gained command of the powerful Imperator-class Star Destroyer Chimaera. In the third year of Imperial rule, Decimius was sent to the Mirus Galaxy in order to protect Imperial interests in the Tralor Confinement War. Soon afterward, Decimius became an Imperial hero rivalled by few when he led Imperial forces to victory during the Fall of Lanat Prime, an event akin to the beginning of the Rambo Nation Protectorate over four years previously.

History

Early Life

Decimius was born on the planet Cyranduas in the Cyrannus Galaxy in the year 34 BNE. Decimius grew quickly and was very interested in military history from a young age as such, the young Libertus trained for years in the hopes of joining the Cyranduas planetary defense fleet. However, when the United Republic of Cyrannus arrived at Cyranduas, Decimius instead decided to join the Republic Navy, eventually becoming a lieutenant on-board the flagship of Laege Shavalera.

As a crewmember on the Valorous, Decimius fought in many battles in the Great Cyrannus War, most notably the Third Battle of Acrocanthaí in which his preformance in battle against the United Lanat Empire guaranteed his promotion to captain. However, before he could be assigned a new ship the Galactic Empire of Cyrannus was formed, ending the war. Decimius spent several months on Orbispira before finally he was given command of a Star Destroyer.

And you are all quite welcome for the battle plan. Hopefully it does not kill you all. That would be quite unfortunate.

- Decimius to the allied leaders during the Mirus Campaign

Decimius was at first posted across the Outer Rim of the Cyrannus Galaxy on the Empire's seemingly endless campaigns against the Confederacy of Free Planets. During these many battles, Decimius performance as a tactician was noticed by Imperial Command, who reassigned the young Libertus to the Mirus Galaxy which was in the midst of the opening stages of a war between the Lanat Empire and the United Mirus Council. Instead of aiding the Lanat Empire as Decimius expected, he was instead ordered to launch probes in the hopes of learning more about the political situation in the galaxy and how best to prepare it for an eventual Imperial presence.

As the leader of Imperial forces in the Mirus Galaxy, Decimius decided to attend a meeting between several Gigaquadrantic leaders to discuss how to end the threat of the Drakodominatus Tyranny, though for much of the meeting he did not speak his mind due to the lingering alliance between the Empire and the Tyranny. However, frustrated over the lack of planning by the other delegates, Decimius surprised them all when he decided to provide a plan of action in which allied empires would join the same taskgroup in order to minimize distrust.

However, he was soon sent by Imperial Command to oversee the Rambo Protectorate, a task that soon led to his involvement in the rebellion instigated by Garlboz and Mortikran. Along with the crew of the Chimaera, Decimius aided the Rambo in the Battle near Rambo Prime, which ultimately saw the capture of the Angforst Space Station and the arrest of Garlboz. Soon afterward, Decimius returned to the Mirus Galaxy, where he formulated an impressive plot to bring about Imperial control over the central territories.

Inquisitor Chi Chodecra and Decimius discuss the Empire's plans.

In consort with Inquisitor Chi Chodecra, Decimius planned an invasion of the United Lanat Empire in order to either consolidate Imperial interests in Mirus or fragment the region into chaos, depending on how events developed. Discovering a Tralor exile named Nekroch, Decimius launched a massive invasion of Lanat Prime, ultimately resulting in Emperor Aoblix's death and the ascension of Nekroch, an Imperial puppet in all but name, to the throne. Despite the success of the battle, Decimius was under no illusions that the Tralor would accept subjugation under Cyrannian boots and instead resolved to fomenting chaos to prevent any power from threatening Imperial interests in Mirus.

Back to Cyrannus

I recommend full shields. This could still be a trap.
"The Phaedric Lords confirm their words, agent. The Dominion has not directly attacked us, as per our agreement, but this threat is nonetheless of a demonic origin. A remnant of a time past. Nevertheless, these... new allies of ours will be acceptable cannon fodder.."

- Agent Caranye speaks with Decimius as the Allied Fleet arrives at Brezank.

Though he expected to remain in Mirus for quite some time, Decimius was soon reassigned back to Cyrannus, where he had a key role in the Cataclysm in the Neutral Zone, leading the Imperial fleet against the demonic defences of the Corruptus Overworld Brezank. Alongside Decimius was Imperial Intelligence Agent Caranye, who acted as his liaison to the ground forces working to destroy the three generators protecting the planet. After the teams were successful, Decimius watched in pride as the arrival of the Cyrannic Imperial Battlestation heralded the destruction of the demonic menace.

After the battle, Decimius relayed his admiration of the allied force's tenacity before returning to the Outer Rim on his regular patrols.

Physical Appearance

Decimius' most notable physical feature is his red eye, a feature common to Libertus on Cyranduas. Having greenish skin and wearing a low-key Imperial uniform, Decimius none the less sticks out in the crowd. His uniform is skin-tight and contains a utility belt containing a small handgun as well as any supplies that might be needed should he find himself in a firefight.

Personality and Traits

Decimius is viewed by many in Imperial Command as the perfect officer of the Navy. Intelligent, calculating, unflinching in the face of danger. Decimius embodies all of these traits and molds them together to form a tactical genius the likes of which there few in a generation. Caring deeply about those who serve under him, Decimius never risks the lives of those under his command and blames himself whenever one fails. Nevertheless, on the battlefield, Decimius is ruthless, dangerous and though he knows when to retreat, has a devotion to victory and ultimate Imperial glory. Unlike many in the Empire desiring a higher place in the hierarchy, Decimius is content with the title of captain, enjoying the mix of conflict and exploration that comes from captaining a ship in the unknown reaches of the Gigaquadrant.

Ship

Chimaera

The Chimaera

The Chimaera (ICS Chimaera ISD-1994) is an Imperator-class Star Destroyer serving in the Imperial Navy of the Galactic Empire of Cyrannus. Measuring 2,600 metres long, the Chimaera represents the Empire's military power in the Mirus Galaxy having been assigned there during the Tralor Confinement War of 03 NE. Under the command of Captain Decimius, the Chimaera is one of the most sought after posts in the Empire due to the captain's combination of both military and exploratory duties all in the name of the Emperor and his mighty Imperial Order. The official crew compliment of the Chimaera is 36,000 which includes officers, troopers and other enlisted personnel. The ship also contains squadrons of ASP fighters, Imperial Walkers and Imperial Wardroids, allowing the Chimaera to carry out invasions of entire galactic sectors almost single handedly.
