Veransk III

Emperor Veransk III was the second to last Emperor of the former Empire of Stars and is largely believed by many humans to have been the last true emperor. Like all the Emperors and Empresses before him, he was a sorcerer of the dark arts.
Veransk was childless by the end of his reign, and there were many who wished to be his heir. However, it was most surprising when he announced Zaramoth the Unmaker to inherit the crown upon his death. Veransk died less than a week later and many suspected that he had been murdered by agents of Zaramoth.
Veransk's death almost immediately set in motion the War of Legions. Whereas the majority of the Empires Legions swore fealty to Zaramoth, the 10th Legion refused on account of believing that Veransk was murdered.
The War of Legions became so bloody that Veransk's body was lost in the conflict and it is unknown where he has finally been laid to rest.
Lord Hovart is said to have been an admirer of Veransk, and kept a number of books about him in his underground fortress.
