The Mahdi

Ruling monarch of the Achaemenid Kingdom, chief Islamic authority of all the Artisynth, gatherer of the lost ones, and unifier of the Renegade Quadrant, the Mahdi rules the ever expanding fledgling kingdom with fairness and firmness towards a bright future. Though he was once the fearless leader of the Children of God death cult and terrorist group, overseeing many attacks on Sol during the Sol-USR war, he has since then tried very hard to bring reform to his people and steer them towards the side of good. Now beloved by his subjects, the Mahdi serves as a shining example of the good the Artisynth are capable of doing, and is more than glad to be their example and representative to the rest of the galaxy.
== History ==
The Mahdi's personal history before his ascension to the Kingdom's Padishah is a very closely guarded secret known only within the Kingdom by the higher echelons of the Artisynth, his secretary Hanai, and Shuren, king of the Gozhu and a personal friend. Outside of the Kingdom however, there are also a handful of individuals whom have once rubbed shoulders with him before he ever took power. Known to them as 'Frosty', and later 'Chemosh', he served his fellow crewmates in the Terrika-Belladonna Company while unfortunately succumbing to a mental breakdown and severe personality disassembly. The last they ever saw of him was being him being ferried off back to Karbala; rejoining his people there and leaving his fellow crewmates under bitter circumstances. However, during the ritual to grant him the very same psychic abilities the Artisynth Sorcerers have, something went horribly wrong. The dead entity residing within the caves of Karbala had come awake, and snatched an unsuspecting Chemosh deep into its heart.
In went Chemosh, out stepped the Mahdi.
