Virasana Emperor

The Virasana Emperor is the ruler of the Virasana Empire. Current Emperor is Elisander Quetzal
== History ==
The first Virasana Emperor was Anandi Virasana, her coronation in 1402 ET widely considered the birth of the empire. 
House Virasana held the throne for over five hundred years, leading an unprecendented if chaotic renaissance of human and n'ptalini culture and economy, called 'The Age of the Lotus'. 
With the assasination of the last emperor of House Virasana, several houses laid claim to the throne, leading to the time now dubbed 'The Age of Many Emperors'. 
It ended with the coronation of Gregorius Quetzal, initiating a profound re-structuring of the empire and the rule of House Quetzal, leading to the current dynasty being named 'The Age of the Flying Serpent'. 
The current Emperor is Elisander I, already dubbed ‘the Good Emperor’ for his unique skill to listen and actually solve problems. Moments of crisis that could have escalated into messy wars were resolved with minimal bloodshed, and the people look forward to a new age of growth and discovery.
