Revision as of 18:22, 9 May 2015

It is an honour to represent the great Core Worlds of Cyrannus.

- Aeresius

Aeresius is a male Libertus who currently serves as the Potentate of the Galactic Empire of Cyrannus, effectively making him the overseer of the day-to-day running of the Empire, while the Emperor concentrates on more important matters. Aeresius hails from the twin world of the planet Capricus, Picona and rose to power in the months after the declaration of the Empire, eventually becoming Grand Mandator (and later Potentate), making him one of the Empire's most notable diplomats.

History

Early Life

Aeresius was born in the year 61 BNE on the planet Picona, one of the Twelve Colonies. As a young boy, Aeresius would often gaze into the sky at Picona's planetary twin, Capricus and longed to be a part of it. Eventually, as he grew older, his wish came true when he was sent away by his wealthy parents to study at the prestigious University of Capricus in Libertopolos. Aeresius studied history and politics and eventually made a name for himself in the diplomatic corp of the Capricorn Sector Alliance, eventually supporting Apollo as President.

Aeresius was witness to many great events over the following years, including the reformation of the Cyrannian Federation into the much more centralised United Republic of Cyrannus. Aeresius continued to work his way up the ranks of the Diplomatic Corp of the Republic, eventually becoming an admired citizen of the Republic and a great man in the eyes of his friends and family back on Picona.

As the Great Cyrannus War dragged on, Aeresius grew to hate the Confederacy of Allied Systems and supported the motion of using more extreme tactics in order to end their rebellion against the Republic. This eventually became the case when the Galactic Empire of Cyrannus was formed, quickly absorbing the Confederacy into a new Imperial regime.

Grand Mandator

EmpireAGCConference

Aeresius talks with the leaders of the Andromedan Galactic Commonwealth.

Despite being initially sceptical over an alleged conspiracy regarding Apollo, Aeresius welcomed the Empire's formation and quickly made a name for himself. Tyrómairon was impressed by Aeresius' record prior to the Empire's rise and as such was made Grand Mandator of the Core Worlds, an incredibly influential position within the Empire. As Grand Mandator, he grew to dislike Imperator Tyranus, Grand Mandator of the Outer Rim for his backhanded methods and unlikeable personality.

Nevertheless, Aeresius became one of the Empire's most trusted diplomats, and was chosen by the Emperor to discuss an alliance with the leaders of the Andromedan Galactic Commonwealth. Before he left, Aeresius began to research information about the Commonwealth and grew sceptical of it, considering it merely an extension of the Draconid Imperium, considering the other nations as mere puppet states. With this in mind, he knew that an alliance between the Empire and the Commonwealth would be illogical and never intended on going through with it.

PraesatorPotentate

Apollo and Aeresius meet on Orbispira.

Nevertheless, he met with Tyraz Breek, Uriel Ultanos and Laurinn Ma'fest within the next day. Aeresius studied the three leaders during their lengthy meetings, mentally taking notes on their personalities and habits. In his mind, his earlier suspicions were proved correct and he suddenly left the meeting, departing to Cyrannus just as the Andromedans attempted to detain him. Aeresius returned to Orbispira soon afterwards and told both the Mandator Council and the Imperial Senate of what he learned.

Potentate

Aeresius was soon promoted to the position of Potentate, the second highest position in the Empire, which also earned him some new, dangerous enemies. During the third year of Imperial Rule, the former leader of the Cyrannian Republic, Apollo was captured in the Unknown Regions. Under the Emperor's orders, Aeresius met with Apollo on Orbispira and gave him a reprieve, so long as he didn't speak out against the Empire. Apollo eventually agreed and both figures left the meeting with ulterior motives.

CyranniaConference02

The Hutter ambassador argues with the Imperials.

Several months later, Aeresius represented the Empire along with Guolivian at the monumental Cyrandia Conference, where he enjoyed annoying the ambassador of the Hutter Kingdom. When the New Cyrannian Republic was formed, he accepted it, claiming that they would have nothing to fear so long as they respected the authority of the Empire.

When the New Cyrandia Wars broke out in 04 NE, Aeresius called an emergency meeting of the Senate to discuss the recent separatist attacks in the Outer Rim. When Guolivian suggested a military alliance with the Draconid Imperium, Aeresius was initially sceptical but was won over by the senator's speech, which also managed to convince most of the more powerful members of the Mandator Council. Aeresius was later present at a Grand Mandator meeting in which the mutilated corpse of an Imperial officer was translocated into the room with the sigil of the Cognatus Empire etched into his chest; an act of war against the Empire.

Physical Appearance

Aeresius has lived most of his life in the lap of luxury, with this being very much evident by how he presents himself. Aeresius enjoys wearing his favourite golden suit which was made from Dvottie feathers, considered one of the finest materials in the entire Gigaquadrant. He is considered quite attractive indeed, but not on the level of Apollo, who is known across Cyrannus for his famed good-lucks. Nevertheless, Aeresius takes pride in his appearance.

Personality and Traits

Aeresius is a curious figure. Though being born into wealth, he was never one to flaunt it obnoxiously to the less fortunate. Indeed, he gained much of his respect in his career for the care he showed to those who helped him on his journey to become successful. Though Aeresius takes pride in his appearance, he is not egotistical in the slightest, though is often considered to be cold and humourless, often Aeresius responds to what he sees as idiotic with a raised brow and a narrowed eye. However, during the Cyrandia Conference of 3 NE, he found enjoyment by irritating the Hutter Ambassador by winking at him while he spoke against the Empire.

In the aftermath of his visit to the Andromeda Galaxy, he has gained a very negative reputation amongst the galaxy's natives, particularly the Draconid Imperium, who accused him of wasting their time. Unlike many Libertus, Aeresius is a devout believer in the Lords of the Thirteen, with his family's patron god being Herm-ai. Though in recent years he is incredibly busy, he tries to pray to Herm-ai daily.
