Doodle Emperor

Doodle Emperor (also known as Emperor Xenophanes) is a major antagonist in the Long Journey Series. He’s the Emperor of the Doodle Empire, taking power in the Second Doodle Civil War, where his imperialist faction defeated the old Doodle Federation. He is considered a tyrant by many, and his reign is characterized by the rapid militarization of the Doodle Empire and his successes in the Great Galactic War, being able to defeat the Rebellion in various battles.
During the Charles Prequel he absorbed the powers of the Doodle Overlord, giving him almost unlimited power. However, during the Battle of the Battlestation, he was presumed dead after Charles sacrificed himself to destroy the Battlestation. He was confirmed to have survived in A Long Journey: Things Get Ugly.
== Appearance ==
Doodle Emperor appeared in the Charles Prequel as a round Doodle with semi-wrinkly grey skin. He has spikes coming out of his elbows and knees, and had grey eyes. After absorbing the powers of the Doodle Overlord, he gained sharp yellow teeth similar to that of the Overlord’s demonic form, as well as blood red eyes. He also gained a pair of crimson bracelets, used to summon powerful armblades that channeled the Doodle Overlord’s powers. During A Long Journey: Through the Galaxy and A long Journey: Rebellion, he seemingly ditched the Armblades for the Darksaber, and his eyes were now blue. 
== Story ==
=== Before the Long Journey ===
==== Early Life and Second Doodle Civil War ====
Xenophanes was born on Dod sometime during the 27th century, during the early years of the Great Galactic War. Much about his early life is unknown, but it’s assumed that later in his life he would develop a hatred to Emperor Alpine’s administration and his handling of the war. He began gaining influence on Dod, gaining allies such as the young Doodle Boss. He would launch an insurgency on the planet, triggering the Second Doodle Civil War between his imperialist faction, and the loyalists to the Doodle Federation. Following seven years of war, Emperor Alpine was killed and his faction defeated. Xenophanes would crown himself emperor, gaining the title ‘Doodle Emperor’. 
==== Revitalizing the Empire’s war effort ====
Following his victory during the Civil War, Doodle Emperor began rapidly militarizing the new Doodle Empire while peace agreements where being made with the Rebellion and its allies, establishing a neutral territory around Solar System 942, where Dod and Ringellion are located. However, he was only buying for time. Few months later, he would launch a massive offensive against the Coalition, retaking many territories that were occupied by the Rebellion during the Civil War. After pushing back the frontline to where it was prior to the Civil War, he would launch a major offensive into the Coalition of Independent Systems and the territories of the Rebellion in Quadrant 4. Thanks to these military victories, he began being viewed as a tyrant by the Coalition and he and his generals were feared across the Galaxy. 
=== During the Long Journey ===
==== Absorbing the Doodle Overlord’s powers ====
Doodle Emperor, alongside Doodle Boss and Commander Lance, arrive to a dark and foggy forest on Dod, where the temple of the Doodle Overlord is located. Doodle Emperor steps out off his ship with Doodle Boss and Lance alongside him, and reveals his plan, to absorb the power of the Doodle Overlord and end the Great Galactic War. He enters the temple and encounters the Overlord in the temple. The Overlord, already aware of Doodle Emperor’s plans, states how Doodle Emperor will become unstoppable if he absorbs his powers, and Doodle Emperor challenges him to fight. The Overlord transforms into a massive demon, roaring and causing Doodle Emperor to flinch in fear, before engaging the Overlord. He doges various bolts of energy created by Doodle Overlord, before allowing Doodle Boss to shoot the Overlord in the face. 
After Doodle Overlord retaliates, Doodle Emperor leaps into Doodle Overlord’s face, stabbing him with the Darksaber. However, Doodle Overlord grabs the Emperor like a pea with two of his fingers and begins to squeeze him. In pain, Doodle Emperor calls out his forces to fire at the Overlord. Various tanks and soldiers fire at the Overlord, causing him to drop Doodle Emperor. However, Doodle Overlord retaliates again, killing various soldiers, destroying the tanks and injuring Doodle Boss. Doodle Emperor impales Doodle Overlord in the face again, slicing down his face and stabbing the Overlord’s right eye. The Overlord screams in pain, with Doodle Emperor stabbing his left eye soon after. As the Doodle Overlord begins to implode, Doodle Emperor shoves the Darksaber and himself into the mouth of the Overlord, causing the Overlord’s demonic form to explode. As the dust settles, the essence of the Overlord enters the body of Doodle Emperor, distorting him as a proclaims the beginning of the end of the Great Galactic War.
