Flavius Justinianus

Flavius Rex Aristos (Flavius pettrus Sabbatius Justinianus Constantius Rex "Aristos") is the 20th Basileus of Fortuna and Prince of the Rasennans.

### Origins

Flavius Rex was born to Basileus Antoninus II Rex of the Flavian Dynasty of Fortuna. The Flavians ruled Fortuna for over 7 centuries and were considered the only legitimate holders of the title of Basileus which was first created under Andronikos Caesarius Justinianus "Megalos", the founder of Fortuna. Early into his father's reign a peasant revolt forced the monarch to flee and seek refuge in the silvish city of Kumaur where Flavius would spend most of his early life in.

### Career

Flavius Rex served in the Viodoxan army where he fought several battles, most notably the first battle of sun's gate where his entire platoon was slaughtered leaving him as a lone survivor. During the battle he was injured in the eyes that he recovered from, which gave him his iconic scar on one of his eyes and the battle also shaped his view of the world as he suffered from severe PTSD after the incident. After the disastrous battle he left the Viodoxan army and spend the next few years of his life rallying support to reclaim his royal title by birth right. He also spent a lot of time travelling where he would visit the city of urnu arrak and from then on be an admirer or Yimmu audal and it's culture.

Eventually he managed to assemble a sizeable army of Fortunan exiles which marched into the city and took it back without bloodshed. In the years of the monarchical exile Fortuna was heavily mismanaged and the town was at the brink of being Abandoned. Flavius would employ his talents in architecture and his learned mind to help Fortuna bounce back from near collapse and would eventually begin a cultural golden age in the city.

Ruling Fortuna as of now for more than 90 years he is Fortuna's longest reigning Basileus to date and has led the city into many years of stability. His reign is considered a beginning of a new age in Fortunan history and he is frequently referred to as "the most exalted of the Fortunan kings" or "the excellent (where he gets the nickname "aristos")". He brought wealth to his people through many programs and was described as a merciful and just ruler.

### After the fall of Viodoxa

After the collapse of Viodoxa, Flavius ruled interium shortly with Khan Sukbaatar until he was ousted from power. After being ousted, he declared that the northern territories would leave Greater Karolium which resulted in the Siege of Fortuna.
Flavius was heavily influenced by the siege as it sturred up long suppressed memories of the slaughter at sun's gate.

### Physical appearance

Justinian towers over the average Fortunan with 2 metres in height. However he is also incredibly frail and not much of a fighter. Justinian has incredibly dark hair and a lot of facial hair to go with it, he is often described as having an "uplifting" look and presence wherever he goes. He also has a insignificant scar on his right eye attained during the battle of Sun's gate and another injury in the back where he was almost paralysed during a skirmish with local barbarians.

### Personality

Flavius is very learned in his studies and excels in the study of architecture, the histories and classics and law. In his youth he was very active and bold but in his old age he became very reserved, dwelling mostly in his palace and occasionally holding open court and speaking with the common folk. He spends a lot of his time indoors, reading books, making sketches of grand structures he knew he would never get to realise and interacting with friends and family. Even though he himself is physically healthy his mind is plagued with memories of his lost friends as he has outlived almost the entirety of his generation and due to that he is very close and reliant on the few old friends he has left. He is a very caring but emotional from time to time however he tries his best to not give into them. He is a very flawed individual however, in his flaws he believes he sees the inherent human nature to be flawed.
