also gripping malignant with you tell us more <3
UM UM UH UM.
So -> His Imperious Malignancy is the current Grand Emperor of my Alternia universe, he lives on Alternia in a floating castle + gardens called the Palace of Fuchsine which I have a little bit of information about on this page
He defeated the previous Empress/Ruler in combat thousands of sweeps ago and has ruled since (whether this was meant to be the Condesce or not i actually haven't really decided). Other tyrians/fuchsias are allowed to exist but older adults usually get sent to rule other colonies and younger adults usually end up ruling specific regions of planets, both on Alternia and colony worlds
He's had several direct descendants but his current one is Malzya, who is currently now living in the Palace and being raised specifically to be capable of taking over, but Jarobexx still feels like he's young enough that he's got plenty of time before he actually can't rule anymore, so he's still willing to throw away anyone that disappoints him
He accepts all heir challengers who aren't happy with just having colonies/regions to rule though :) they can come to the city that's at the top of the space elevator coming out of the palace of fuchsine where they have a nice arena where any challenges will be televised for entertainment and to remind people that HIM is still very capable :> that's what happened to Soluci's ancestor.
also this guy and his weapon being a 2xspear is the reason that i use this symbol instead of the fork for the fleet:
on the other hand
-> The Malignant is not Grand Emperor but rose through the ranks of the fleet extremely fast, so fast that the ruler saw it as a threat and specifically banished. i mean. required him to rule over a distant solar system with valuable resources and many threats, as "only he would be capable of keeping it under alternian control".
he accepted, knowing 100% why he was being sent to do it, but also being arrogant enough to believe that if anyone lesser was sent then they would lose control of that space and he believed that keeping access to the resources was valuable to him too. he just also thought he would be able to secure the system and then return to challenge the ruler properly but. he hasn't been able to.
