The Nexarian Empire:
The Nexarian Empire came into being approximately 50,000 years ago when a group of advanced beings known as the Creators chose the planet Regulus and the species inhabiting it as a base for some form of experiment. To this day Imperial scholars and archaeologists have been unable to find any evidence or information alluding to the purpose of this experiment in spite of the fact that many of their labs remained intact on the planet millennia after they left. Before they left, the Creators gifted the race bellow with advanced technologies and a leader, this leader was Lucius Tiberius Nexus and he was a half-breed between Creator and the native species. This half-breed quickly united the peoples of Regulus under his rule, leading him to become the first Emperor, to signify this change, the planet was renamed Nexaria and the people became known as Nexarians.
Perhaps the greatest technology gifted to, the now, Nexarian people by the creators was that of interdimensional travel, this technology allowed the empire to spread its influence over the Multiverse. Since that time, through intimidation, political 'intrigue' and a score of impressive military conquests, the Empire now controls roughly 40% of the known Multiverse. As the Empire grew so did their questionable morals, and over the millennia, the Nexus dynasty became know for turning out some of the most cruel tyrants and brilliant tactical minds in history as it became tradition of all imperial children to become proficient with as many weapons as possible, and be able to learn/create brilliant military strategies.
Every empire does however possess a small, cutely grotesque underbelly, in the empire's case, it was rather large. Likely, the worst aspect of the empire is the way it treats its lower class: The nobles live lavish lives, civilians and high ranking military members enjoy a somewhat comfortable life, however for most others, the empire is a cruel place. High taxes, lack of public service, compulsory military service to be used as fodder, the list goes on, this treatment however has lead to a growing hatred for the nobility, which in turn had lead to open rebellion. Most rebel factions are quickly dealt with by peacekeepers, however, some larger factions have been able to evade the Imperial dragnet for now.
House Nexus:
Emperor Solarian Titus Nexus II:
Age: 5872 yrs
Personality/Backstory: In his early years, Solarian was known to be a charming young man, caring and compassionate. He would often be observed spending time in the lower levels of Nexaria, observing the lower class people and making notes of what troubled them, as well as theorising on how to fix them. This mentality continued into his slightly older years, after becoming Emperor and saw too it that many small changes were made to improve the quality of life for the middle class. This would all change in his later years, however.
Leading up to him becoming immortal, Solarian seemed to change for no reason, gone were his attempts to further help the lower classes, he instead focused on an increase to imperial firepower and fleet size, ravaging many planets to the point of destruction for their resources, this was not the only change, however. His personality also changed over the years, he became a lot more cold, stoic, and strict, seeming to lose all care for anything except building a great legacy, no matter whose blood had to be spilled to get there.
Arch-Prince Lucius Solarian Nexus IV:
Age:5700 yrs
Personality/Backstory: In stark contrast to his Father, Lucius is a rather eccentric individual with a kind and bubbly personality, as well as being intelligent and witty; his personality can however swiftly change to that of a more serious one when the time requires, this doesn't happen very often. Lucius is rather controversial in the Imperial court, or at least the few times he's there, as he is openly opposed to his Father's rule, and in fact, the rule of an Emperor all together believing that a democracy is the best way to ensure equality to everyone in the Empire. This belief has created a firm hatred between himself and most of the nobility, though none of the nobility will say anything openly for fear of retribution.
Though his political pursuits are almost always met with failure, when it comes to matters of the mind he is second to none. His insanely high IQ has lead to him making leaps and bound in technology, it is predicted that within the first 100 years of his life he had advanced technology in the Empire by approximately 300 years. This level of genius has lead to him being heralded as the smartest man in the multiverse. It is believed however that Lucius actually restricts his discoveries being given to the Empire, and in fact, spoon-feeds them tech in order to keep them at the same level as over nations.
Prince Dargo Varian Nexus:
Age: 5700
Personality/Backstory: Dargo is, by all accounts, a complete psychopath with an anger management problem, working under him is the most dreaded job in the Empire. The prince in a sick and twisted man who takes no small amount of joy in torturing his enemies and those who fail him, in the most painful way possible. When angered he will often lash out at people or objects resulting in their destruction. Dargo is however deathly smart with a military mind that can only be matched by few.
Dargo has only one goal, to become Emperor, and to become Emperor he needs to be the Arch-Prince. Over almost six millennia, Dargo had tried constantly to kill Lucius while he's away from the Empire for fear of the repercussions, however, at every turn he has been stopped by the very man he hunted. This string of constant failure has only served to exponentially increase his anger, his insanity and his hatred for his older twin brother.
