****The Dark Emperor**** is a servant of the Slime God of (somewhat) unknown origins.

## Backstory

The Dark Emperor's origins are fairly mysterious, however, a surprising amount is known for their species. They were originally created in the Void outside of the Universe by some unknown Dark God outside of the pantheon of Cthulhu and Arfrosydos entirely, supposedly named "Yog-Sothoth". This Dark God managed to teach them extensively about illusory magic. Yog-Sothoth mainly used The Dark Emperor to scout out things in an attempt to gather what little knowledge they could in the void. It was one of these scouting missions that lead the Dark Emperor to the known universe, towards the beginning of it's inception. Unfortunately, the Light God Xeroc had recently been forced to fight off the invasion of the Dark Gods, and they weren't all too happy with the Dark Emperor's arrival afterwards. Xeroc swiftly managed to force The Dark Emperor out of the universe, much to the latter's dismay. They returned to Yog-Sothoth, who decided to play the waiting game and wait until the light god's death...

And eventually, this day would come. When Cthulhu had planned to score revenge of their humiliating defeat by Xeroc, Yog-Sothoth had heard of their plans. They managed to make a deal with the Dark Lord that, in turn for The Dark Emperor's service to them, Yog-Sothoth would be able to research the universe unheeded while it lasted as it was. Cthulhu hesitantly accepted this offer, thus bringing The Dark Emperor into service for Cthulhu.

Though the Dark Emperor was mainly a magician, The Dark Lord had different plans for The Dark Emperor. Despite being capable of overwhelming Xeroc, Cthulhu was in very short supply of loyal followers. Noxus had already been assigned to protecting Xeroc's soul, Arfrosydos almost immediately backstabbed Cthulhu once Xeroc was dead, and Cthulhu had assigned their many other kin to researching just how to manipulate the universe to the extent Cthulhu wished. However, the Dark Emperor was extremely loyal to Cthulhu - or, at least, loyal to the Dark God who's ability to safely research the universe relied on the Dark Emperor serving for Cthulhu. Thus, the Dark Emperor was assigned some of the more hands-on jobs for Cthulhu, including but not limited to the execution of the more important rebels of Cthulhu at the time.
