Alexander Augustus

Alexander Augustus is the current Emperor of Arena. He reclaimed the lands of Arena three hundred years after they were defeated by Tyran Carlysle.

Appearance
Alex, as his close family calls him, bears a powerful look to match his status. His broad shoulders often wear light, golden brown armour. On his chest, a big prancing gryphon is painted. His crown is quite subtle, as it is only a simple golden tiara. Spells and history of his family are written in their native tongue on the side of the crown. Alexander bears a long spear on his back and a shortsword on his waist. He has a sharp diamond-shaped face and beautiful black locks falling across his ears.

Character
Alexander is a born leader. Many in Vesper Aestas say he is Aurelius reborn, others say he is the greatest warrior the Augustuses have ever seen. His power does not diminish his love and kindness though, as the common folk worship him. With the support of the nobles and the smallfolk, many believe he is the one to lead Arena to greatness. Even though he holds all power, he listens to his council, who he put together once he heard about the councils in the castles of Scaeptre.

History
Alexander was born in 197 A.K. to his father Adrianus and his mother Arysta, who were pretty much forgotten exiled descendants of Atticus Augustus. They lived in a secluded palace on a lonely island, where Alex and his sister Aemilia, who was born five years later, played and grew big. His father often told him of their legacy and that they were the last living of House Augustus.

Torrents of Treachery
Alexander is crowned Emperor of Arena, Princeps of Vesper Aestas and Scion of House Augustus, after he has finally defeated the republic with the help of the common folk, who love him.

Roars of Resentment
The newly crowned emperor attends the games, held in the Arena Arenae in honour of him, but when he learns about the gladiators being up first, he leaves and visits his sick mother, Arysta. On his way out, he encounters Pravo Nemine, the serial killer who killed Alexander's brother for the republic. Somehow, he has escaped the dungeons, though Alex does not kill him. Some days later, he dreams about Pravo and Princeps Duperius, who are debating about what to do with the newly born Altys Augustus. The view switches, and Alexander witnesses the Vestras Incident in his dream.
