The Emperor is the most powerful mage on Lost Ground and the only ruler the Alter Empire has ever had.

Old Fluff

Two centuries ago, he fought through the various wars that founded the empire and as such has a martial ability unusual in reclusive and enigmatic archmages. Though not thought of as a particularly good strategist or commander, his specialty was personal combat against mages as powerful and enigmatic as himself. Within a few decades after the final war with the Merai, once it was proven that no other mage on Lost Ground could challenge him, he retreated into seclusion to manipulate the empire's social system from above whilst attempting to allay his boredom by exploring greater magical secrets. These days, he is the only one who remembers those times. Around the turn of the millennium, after quietly fostering a nascent ability for the empire to project itself into the starways, he suddenly emerged from seclusion and became active again.

Generally speaking, Lilim sees people as people but rather regards them as an artisan regards implements. Above all, he hates those who are weak or useless and has an abiding love for battle. Although he is male and tends to appear as a male teenager, he can move freely amongst a host of technomagic bodies and likely has a library's worth of deadly arcana awaiting the need to use them.
