Legio MCXI

Navis Carceris

Colors: Blue and Gold

Banner: Golden eagle over a ship wheel on a blue background

Legion was formed as shock troops but as marine, mech and synth units became more standard their role had since changed.

Fast to rally towards any combat, zealots seeking imperial glory the opportunistic soldiers wield an automatic railgun weapon for open combat. Dual wielding short monoswords and encased in vestimentum they are expensive infantry, primarily operate as shipboard marines and shocktroopers. Only 2000 remain as over half was decimated in the synth purge, most of which are aboard the few remaining Aquilan warships.

Quaestionarius Aquila Vakarius Henrik
Battle of Proxima Reach

planet : Diomikato

year 3195

One of the last large scale battles fought during the war, a costly victory for Aquila but one that put an end to the synth threat on the planet.

## Legio III Augusta

The Legion had recently been re-deployed to Diomikato after serving elsewhere in the empire. They alongside several other legions were tasked to hunt down the last remaining synth forces on the planet. Located in a area known as Proxima Reach, a place known for its valleys and tunnels. It was reported that thousands of synth forces were using the area to perform hit and run strikes on the surrounding area.

The third deployed the majority of the legion in a defensive posture, in order to cut the enemy off from any avenues of retreat. The first cohort was chosen to enter the area and start flushing the enemy out. This is when the synths stuck, they used surgical strikes on the various headquarters of the Legion. Tactics such as suicide bombers and disguised squads caused chaos within the Legion.

Most of the high command was wiped out in the first hours of the battle. Centurion Aquila Flavius Cato along with the veterans of the first cohort, managed to hold back the enemy long enough for the legion to regroup. Unfortunately it was too late to save the Centurions father the Legate Aquila Flavius Gaius.

Along with reinforcements from the Legio X the Legio III beat back the enemy causing them to flee. The other Legions in the area saw their opportunity and entered the valleys and tunnels, finding a disorganised enemy that was quickly dispatched. The last stand of the synth forces on Diomikato.

## Legio X Lupus

High Command was at first unwilling to send anyone to relieve Legio III as it was deemed that the legion was doomed and an attack on the Synth command was the more tactically sound option. While the Praetor recognized this wisdom he was not willing to completely abandon Augusta to it's fate and sent a detachment of Lorica to teleport over to the Third Legion and provide them much needed reinforcements.

They had already begun to regroup as the Lorica arrived lead by then Prefect Aquila Juventius and together they were able to force a rout while the bulk of the legion pushed through entrenched Synth positions and caused an encirclement ending the battle of Proxima Reach. The Third legion holding down the bulk of Synths troops was instrumental to this battle and the two legions have some of the highest mutual respect of those who made it out of the war.

Tribune Aquila Acedia Horatius

### Name

Peditatus Tribune Princeps Dux Diomikato Aquila Acedia Jeong-Hun Horatius Legio CXLVI

## Legion

### Location

Imperial Prime

Acedia Horatius (born March 15, 3162) is a Tribune in the 146th Legion, commanding the Second Cohort. He is the current Aquilan representative to House Lyra. He was made a Tribune in [Year] and fought in the Synth War from 3185 to its end. He was appointed as representative to House Lyra in 3199.

## Early life

Horatius was born on March 15, 3162 in Infernum, Diomikato. He is the third child of Quaestor Aquila Acedia Petrus (3123 - ) and Promagistrate Aquila Acedia Seung (3119 - ). His mother commanded the 9th Legion but retired at the end of the Synth War due to old age. Horatius' father administers the large Acedia estates on Diomikato and is also a judge. Horatius was raised on the Acedia estates on the Green Belt of Diomikato. He enrolled in the Aquilan military academy at age 15, and graduated [We need to decide how long it takes to graduate]. The same year as he went to the academy his older sister, who had already graduated from the academy, was killed by a malfunctioning Synth.

## Military career

Horatius was assigned to the Second Cohort in [Year]. At that time it was a mixed human-synth Cohort, with humans being gradually phased out. This trend was reversed by Horatius who distrusted the synths and preferred real humans with souls. Synths were not allowed to rise in the ranks and no new Synths would be accepted into the Cohort.

###

### Staconago

Shortly after being assigned to his Cohort, Horatius was placed on garrison duty on the moon of Staconago, orbiting the holy planet of Andophael. He was immersed in the traditions and cultures of the Church and became a devout believer in their creed. This was also when he started enforcing prayer among the humans in his Cohort once every week. His cohort also trained with the High Church guardians.

### Diomikato

He was recalled to Diomikato when House Aquila joined the war against Cygnus and the Synths.

### Tiber

At some point Horatius fought on Tiber against the Synths.

## Civilian career

Something here about being the representative to Lyra, and other things.

### New Year Gala, 3200

Horatius attended the New Year Gala of 3200 at the Eridanii Embassy on Imperial Prime.

## Political views

Staunchly anti-Synth, pro-Church, anti-Vagrants, anti-Triangulum, pro-Aquila.

## Personal life

Living the rich life, thanks to his family. The Acedia family is both affluent and influential, and Horatius benefits from this in many ways.

You can also find him on Cinder, if you are lucky.
Praetor Aquila Protus Marcus

Current assignment: Praetor of Legio XLVII, Director of Inner Sector Communications.

Previous assignment: Legate of Legio XLVII.

While a capable enough soldier and frontline officer, Praetor Protus didn’t earn his first command on the battlefield. Protus had served as an adjutant for several months under the late Legate Varus leading up to a planetary uprising just prior to the Synth Rebellion. After an explosion in the Imperial Command Headquarters left all senior officers dead or otherwise incapacitated, Protus was field promoted and put in charge of the legion's remaining forces. Cut off from reinforcements and with so few officers remaining, ending the rebellion seemed impossible. Protus recognized there was no way to defeat the rebel forces in direct combat. Instead, Protus directed his forces to stealing resources and cutting off supply routes so that the rebel forces would eventually starve. Within two months, the rebels had surrendered and Imperial control over the planet was reestablished.

25 years later, Praetor Protus is now over 45 years old. He is an excellent administrator, leader, and speaker, who uses his skills to outwit and outmaneuver enemies of the Empire. As a member of the Convocation, Praetor Protus wishes only to serve the Empire.

After leading the Legio XLVII as its Legate for 25 years, Protus stepped down from the legion's top combat position in order to take up the mantle of the legion's Praetor.
Campus Martius

The campus is used as the proving grounds of the Triarii aspirants valuing their abilities to operate their Lorica in all forms of environments. It's dangerous wilderness uninhabited by House Aquila since colonization and the Lorica maintenance facilities are kept on an island away from the wilderness.
Diomikato

### Founding and Mythos

In legends, Emperor Diomikato discovered this planet hundreds of years ago and was disappointed. Instead of a suitable planet for his new Imperial capital, he found a wasteland. However, an idea occurred to him as he toured the ashen wastes. Having named the planet for himself, Emperor Diomikato gifted it to House Aquila, for use in the training of new recruits in the harshest conditions.

The result was the production of the fiercest soldiers in the sector, a tradition which continues to this day. Legionnaires colloquially call the planet Avernus, the Gates of Hell.

Besides the legion recruits, there is a local populace. They are as rough as the world itself and recruits are often drawn from among them. Further, due the the proximity to aliens, the natives are extremely xenophobic.

### Geography

Diomikato is primarily described as a wasteland, with openly flowing fields of lava, and ashes wastes covering a large percentage of the planet. However, there is still variety on the planet, around the equator of the planet lies a barely habitable green zone where the majority of the population and agriculture exists. This is made possible by the planet's tidal-locked nature, which leaves the dark side of the planet cold but just as dangerous due to volcanic activity.

### Economy and Resources

The planet is mainly used to train the legions of the Empire, but that is not the only reason the planet has value. All along the green belt, rich nobles own large plantations that grow grapes, olives, and other heat-resistant crops. Thanks to the constant sun and the fertile volcanic ashes, these crops tend to grow well along the green belt, although it is quite common for the harvest to be entirely black from the planet's ash.

Across the sunny side of the planet, large solar parks provide power to the settlements on Diomikato. Due to unexpected eruptions and the unforgiving heat, these have to be repaired quite often. Geothermal power is also an incredibly effective source of power. Together, these provide a large surplus of energy that is usually stored in batteries. Diomikato's battery industry is surprisingly extensive, supplying the sector with power cells of both type A and type B.

The third main occupation on Diomikato is its risky mining industry. Volcanic activity often allows metals that were once buried deep underground to surface, where they can be then be mined. Sulphur mining straight from active volcanoes is also a common, but deadly, profession for serfs. Some of these metals are then used by the battery factories, others are used to produce ammunition for Mag Rifles.

Aquilan nobles usually occupy the top jobs in these various industries, giving jobs to those who have retired from the legions or decided to never serve in the first place.

### Important Locations

Infernum

The Greenbelt

Regions of the Greenbelt: Flaviiterra

The Academia Ardenti Arbitrium

Campus Martius

Proxima Reach: a series of tunnels and valleys located not far from Infernum

Legio Praxis

## Background

The Legio Praxis is where all recruits of the legion are placed under whilst they are undergoing training. Discipline, training and every aspect of the Tiros is managed by the training officers integrated within a legion.

## Structure

The Legio Praxis is unconventionally structured, with each century covering a different aspect of the training.
Oath of Mortale Fide

A ceremonial oath taken to swear loyalty to officers mostly used by legions to embolden soldiers dedication to their legion and in turn the empire at large. While the trapping of the oath has change through out the legions it's core merits are present in all legions having the participants taking the legions name beside their rank (Legionary Raptorae or Centurion Fidelis).

The oath was created from the founding of the first legions on Diomikato where it is still preformed in its original practice. Upon graduation from Academia Ardenti Arbitrium, this Oath given to legionaries and high officers of the House Aquila's Legions. By taking this oath soldiers swear their lives in service to the throne and empire for only by declaring your mortal service to the legion can the empire be truly protected by the most resolute soldiers the empire has to offer.
Skill

Skill is a type of Power – while everyone has some innate skill they are reasonably sure they can perform all the time, everyone has no doubt experienced times when they were ‘in the zone’, really ‘on the ball’ or generally smoking. People in this state are spending skill.

This is commonly used for Arms, Armour Use, Agility and Crafter
Legion Organization

\*Open For Revision\*

Average Legion Composition Post Synth Culling

These are average strengths of current legions. The full strength of Aquila forces in the sector numbers approximately 3 million. There are currently 253 active legions, many of which were consolidated from damaged legions after the considerable loss of Synth forces. Each legion will inevitably vary from this outline in both troop number and percentages. Additionally, while the standard cultural inspiration for a legion is that of Roman origins, many legions draw on the infinitely varied cultures that arrived in the the ark ships that fled Terra long ago.

#### Infantry: 10,000

20% Support Personnel (Medical, Engineer, Peasants)

60% Core Infantry--The backbone of your legion’s operation. Specialized infantry will likely have smaller overall legions sizes. (Space marines, Line infantry, drop infantry, heavy infantry)

20% Specialists (Snipers/Scouts, Heavy Weapons)

### Officers: 1,000

20% Peripheral/Support (Training Officers, Non-Combat Directors)

80% Infantry (Low through high tier core officers)

### Pilots: 100

80% Lorica Armis/Armor/Fighter Pilots--Legions typically favor one of these three categories.

15% Lorica Fortis

5% Lorica Invicta--These are rare and many legions may not have any at all.
The Green Belt

A vast region spanning over Diomikato's diameter supporting most of the planets flora and fauna. This is due to the planet's tidal locked position in the solar system which has created two polar based hazardous regions separated by the belt itself or a failed alien terraforming project from before the First Contact War. To venture beyond the belt one would require proper environmental equipment and in the most dangerous locations enclosed vehicles or the locally used Lorica especially when a new hurricane is forming.
Legio XIX

The Onyx Eagle

Colors: Black & Gold

Banner: Eagle's Claw

## Description

A contemporary legion formed and so named after the Onyx Eagle himself, Legate Aquila Aurix Bask. They act as a specialty vanguard planetary strike force, first to arrive, and often among the last to leave. Their rank is hand selected by the Legate, chosen only for proven dedication to the noble House Aquila. They are infamous throughout the sector as masterful tacticians who would see any enemy of the empire crushed beneath their sharpened claw. The Legate himself has not once been absent from the front lines of his Legion, his black Lorica Fortis emblazoned with the golden claw of Aquila. In times of peace, ranks of the Legion are fully expected to pivot into the politica to ensure the might of the Convocation echoes throughout the sector.

## Synthetics

As with all Legio before the war, The XIX did in fact have a number of synth within their ranks, but they were primarily relegated to support roles such as comms, medical, and drone operations, to name a few. Roughly 2/3 of the legion were non-human, but no synth held an officers rank of any sort. The most notable within Legio XIX were a Cohort of Essedum Onager, a precision artillery strike unit. Upon the purge all Synth were "decommissioned."

## History & The Cygnus Threat

In 3177 Acheron Rho, House Crux revealed the Cygnus threat. The Legate of the XIX was murdered by synthetic assassins in the wake of this news. A young Centurion Triarii, Bask Aurix would lead the remaining forces of the XIX into vengeful engagements, purging all synthetics from the Legion . His Lorica Fortis (light mech) stained black with the ash of his foes, he earned the monicker Onyx Eagle. Two years into this time of crisis for the the Aquilan Legions, the Convocation deemed it appropriate to elevate Bask to the authoritative rank of Legate in 3179. The Legion was rebranded in his image as a message to all synthetics that remained, there would be no quarter.

Courtship and Marriage

Courtship inside Aquila is an awkward issue. Officially it is forbidden to pursue sexual or romantic relations inside the legions, to prevent combat personnel from being liabilities in combat due either to clashing priorities or pregnancy. Since most of the population of house Aquila are military personnel this presents a problem for the house and renewing its population. But as they say... "ah \*love\* ah finds a way".

A few exceptions are made within the legion in regards to relationships are made:

* Firstly, Individuals within the legions are allowed to have pre-existing relationships, provided they swear to serve the legion above their loved ones.
* Secondly, one may propose and hold betrothals so long as they do not pursue sexual relations whilst serving in the legions and they do not compromise themselves in their relationship.
* Thirdly Individuals married may be granted special shore leave to attend to emergencies.
* Finally in regards to political marriage, Individuals are give the marriage as a special mission to attend to in personal time, with any punishment for pregnancy or relations outside of duties ignored.

By the time most Legionaries leave the Legions they are too old for children. Therefore Aquila has a very generous adoption policy.

Outside the Legions, Aquilan Marriage is a mixed bag, with all sorts of influences involved in courtship. Most Aquilans adopt the appropriate customs from their partner. Many are clueless in the romantic arts and should 2 Aquilans become romantically involved it is quite likely neither will know how to handle the relationship.

If an Aquilan non-noble legionnaire somehow manages to marry into nobility they are usually given the chance to void their remaining years in the legion to live their new noble life.

If an Aquilan noble in a high military position marries out of House Aquila, they usually lose their military responsibilities. A Legate commanding a legion would be relieved of their duties or given symbolic administrative duties, sometimes accepting a demotion to make the transfer of power easier. They would generally not be expected to vote in the Convocation any more.

Triarii Aquila Incendi Cane

## Family Incendi

The Incendi family is of an old lineage with a sizeable amount of land, but they are not overly rich because everything they have to spare is given to House Aquila willingly.
As in many noble families all children do legion duty, but only the eldest is expected to retire after 25 years of service and manage the land.The younger children serve until they are of no more use to the legion. Then they return to train and prepare the new generation of Incendi scions. The incendi family does not believe in personal glory, in their home they have a room with a single chest bearing the crest of house Aquila.
Locked away within this chest you will find every medal and award any member of the family has ever won.
Legate Lucius Justus

Additional Title: Quaestionarius Aquila ‘Nighthawk’

Assigned to: Legio LXXXIX (Also the Quaestionarius Corps)

Age: 36

Description: 6' 2" Tall. Wirey build with Aquiline features. Shoulder length, well-groomed black hair. Piercing Steel-Blue eyes.

Justus joined the ranks as young as he possibly could, refusing to use his Nobility to buy into an officer rank determined to prove his worth by his own merit. He has always dreamed of rising in the ranks and achieving the honour of becoming an Aquilifer, holding the Legions Eagle while bringing justice to the Empires enemies.

In order to prove himself, Justus began capturing enemy combatants and officers, squeezing information from them. Tactica, opposing leadership structures, combat capabilities and force numbers anything that he could bring back to his superiors.

His reputation grew and before long enemy forces would describe his arrival on the battlefield as 'coming on dark wings'. This earned him the nickname Nighthawk.

His informational retrieval skills were deemed exceptionally useful, which lead to the Legionary being inducted into the Quaestionarius Corps.

His keen focus, combat abilities and his contributions to Quaestionarius have seen his position rise to that of Prefect, but his ambition has yet to be sated.

Within Quaestionarius his eye is mainly focused on the Empires enemies, however, ever since the assassination of the Emperor, he has begun to look for the enemy within.

Literature

While not as elegant as the works produced by House Lyra, Diomikatian literature has been made based on the exploits of the numerous legions whose tales have been immortalized in a multitude books. Sourced from tactical recordings from senior legion members and personal accounts from war veterans, these books were expanded through a font of detailed information which culminated collections stories for each legion. Accompanied by stylized pictures of the battles fields and combat engagements these stories have been popularized by the youth for its simplistic presentation and over the years the Academia has taken to the most exciting stories based on their militant importance and tactic merit to be incorporated in their modernized treatise.
Aquilan Funeral Practices

Every soldier expects some day to die in battle. Some are lucky enough to die on their own terms, but for House Aquila all deaths in service are noble. Over the years since they arrived in Acheron Rho their rituals and customs surrounding the dead have evolved in concert with those of House Lyra. Today all soldiers of House Aquila know they will one day join the Legion Terminus.

Joining this legion involves the preservation of the body by the Neshmet of House Lyra for transport back to Diomikato when possible. When it is not possible they are cremated on pyres and the ashes collected for return to the homeworld. On the homeworld brief rituals are conducted, short descriptions of their service and character by their commanding officer before cremation upon the lava rivers of Diomikato. Some, but not all, soldiers will also have a short sermon from a Chaplain of the High Church at their funeral. Their equipment, engraved with their names from their first day in the Legion is passed on, a moving memorial, but one of their two holotag pendants is brought to the complex of white temples, stained with drifting volcanic ash. The other holotag is given to a significant comrade, friend or lover. Many an Aquilan romance ballad, told in the barracks late at night, never sees the two lovers express their feelings until one has died and their tag is delivered to their comrade.

Within these temples, maintained by trained serf-acolytes of House Lyra, paid for by House Lyra and donations of visitors, there stand large stone statues, representations of skeletal eagles. The statues are in death proud and unbowed even under the weight of the thousands of chains bearing holotags hanging from their wings. A visitor is able to use a projector system there to see descriptions and depictions of the fallen and their service. Small stories, often of humorous moments of respite on the battlefield, can be heard as well, told by comrades who have outlived their siblings-in-arms.

In the past century, a new tradition has evolved surrounding the cremation of Aquilan soldiers as well. Whereas previously their ashes were allowed to rejoin Diomikato’s rivers of lava, now some portion is collected by House Lyra. For a short period after the ceremony, Meret artisans offer their services creating tattoos containing the ash of the fallen. This has become popular enough that there is rarely any such ash left, but what remains is brought to the temple complex of the Legion Terminus and scattered in small sheltered indoor gardens, opportunities for peace after a lifetime of service.
Praetor Aquila Warwick Adonis

## Bio

Adonis is a smart, introverted man. He was born into House Aquila and raised on Diomikato to be a soldier. He had other aspirations, but this was the path laid out for him. His short, stocky frame and natural affinity in the pilot's seat, aided him in becoming an accomplished member of the Special Ops Division of Mechs: Lorica Absconditum. He does what he feels is best for the Sector and his people. He was given the nickname *The Hope of Sabreforge* after his heroic acts in the *Battle of Sabreforge.*

## *The Battle of Sabreforge*

Sabreforge Pass the nickname for the asteroid belt (019) Souris. A Legion of Aquilan soldiers had been sabotaged during the night of 16 May 3175. (Not Finished

Legio X Lupus

The Hounds of the Empire

Colors: Blue and Gold

Banner: Wolves Head Crest

## "Semper Venatione" (Latin): "Always Hunting"

The Tenth Legion is a particularly old and storied Legion within the empire founded as a traditional legion with a mix of mechs, infantry, auxiliary armor, support units, etc. but with Heavy Infantry equipped with power armor and a small contingent of psychics with teleportation equipped with special Lorica Fortis called Lorica Fortis Lupus. The legion organizes itself in a standard manner with ten man Decemviri for infantry squads, ten Decemviri are combined into a single Centuria which is commanded by the Centurion and then these are Organized by 5 into a Cohort lead by a Tribune. Finally Legio Lupus has four Prefects each leading five cohorts and one Praetor. It is unique in that it typically has no Legate and the Praetor, who is usually a psychic, leads the troops.

### Synth Wars

Due to the fact that it has many psychics the tenth legion had very few synthetic troops compared to many of the other legions. This meant that it managed to keep it's legion almost entirely intact in the initial stages of the war, though it suffered losses just like the rest. Due to the fact that it was at full strength it was often pushed in fact to go into the thickest parts of the battles and was brought down to 3/4 strength, though it has mostly recovered since.

The Hardest fought battle occured at Proxima Reach where Legio III was ambushed by Synth and Cygnus forces. Command was at first unwilling to send anyone as it was deemed that the third legion was doomed and an attack on Cygnus command was the more tactically sound option. While the Praetor recognized this wisdom he was not willing to completely abandon Augusta to it's fate and sent a detachment of Lorica to teleport over to the Third Legion and provide them much needed reinforcements. They had already begun to regroup as the Lorica arrived lead by then Prefect Aquila Juventius and together they were able to force a rout while the bulk of the legion pushed through entrenched Cygnus positions and caused an encirclement ending the battle of Proxima Reach. The Thirds legion holding down the bulk of Cygnus troops was instrumental to this battle and the two legions have some of the highest mutual respect of those who made it out of the war.

After the battle of Proxima Reach, Legio X was redeployed several times though they never faced as difficult a battle. By the next few months fighting shifted to small scale skirmishes and the Legion was moved to a counter-insurgency role.

### Post-War

When the war had ended the last Praetor who had was already aged decided to retire and was sent off with honors. In his stead the Prefect Aquila Aquila Juventius was raised to Praetorship

#### Notable Members

Praetor Aquila Aquilarius Juventius

Quaestionarius Aquila Lucrezia Rosenkranz
Legio XIII

Commanding Officers:

Legate Aquila Volk Gaia

Tribune Aquila Kaletor Endymion

Colours: Beige with red trim

Banner: Thunderbolt

The Thunderbolt 13th Legion has earned a reputation for brash frontal assaults , followed up by deadly lightning strikes, and finally the cold efficiency of mech fire support . The Legion’s two foremost commanders make for a perfect balance; the fire of Gaia Volk’s fury and Endymion Kaletor cold logic. Together they have led the 13th Legion to numerous victories throughout their tenure and the respect of many of their peer legions.

When making war, the 13th Legion  will focus on two main tactics. The first is orbital assault; the Legion will use orbital insertion tactics  and armoured gunships to perform a mass-landing in the wake of a heavy orbital bombardment. If enemy resistance is still strong after this initial assault, the 13th Legion will land their heavy armour (such as mechs and grav tanks) and launch an armoured spearhead against the weakest link in the enemy's defensive line.

As part of their dedication to the Empire and their Legion, the 13th Legion swear oaths of faith and protection. Before a battle, it is considered customary to renew one of these oaths, the individual vow serving as a focus on the particular aspect of the Legionaries duties considered to be necessary to ensure success for the overall Legion in battle.
Legate Aquila Belisarius Julian

Legate, Dux of the Sector 041A of Diomikato, Aquila Belisarius Julian's heart stopped beating at age 73.

At age 74, Julian officially began his last tour of duty.

He is currently 126 and only has a few more years to live.

Julian was the first and perhaps the last participant of the hyper secret "Dominus ex Machina" program. His mind was transferred to a "Loricius Animi" and put into partial status. This was in order to better command planned full synth units. This technology was flawed however, the Aquilans do not possess the necessary knowledge to maintain the complex machinery of Cygnus that keep Julian alive and thus he will soon perish.

Though outwardly cold, calculating and technically heartless he cares deeply for the men he commands and cherishs all of them, yet is constantly forced to order their deaths to achieve victory.

Deeply grieved by the hollowing of his legion and shamed by his current state, Julian only hopes that his duty will end soon, though is distraught that when his tale comes to a close, it will not be on the battle field with the people he loves the most.

### Early Life

Born Belisarius Julian, Julian spent most of his early life on Tiber, the seat of the noble house Eridanus, as a nameless commoner living normally. At the age of 16, he left Tiber, illegally, by hiding in a visiting ships cargo hold, to escape a large debt owed by his family to house Eridanus.

Eventually he found his way to Diomikato, where he joined the Imperial Legion and voiding his debt.

### Life as a Legionnaire

Little is remembered of the training of Belisarius Julian, only that after completing it with competence, he was transferred into Legio CXLVI, Aspirans Fidelis. There he served as a Legionnaire for 10 long year campaigning all around Acheron Rho. In the Helesco Campaigns he served with distinction and was wounded multiple times in the line of duty. His was well regarded by both his commanders and his peers and promoted to Decanus.

### Phoenix Lorica

As a gift to the Legate, a benefactor commissioned from the Trilliant Ring a custom built life supporting medium mech suit to bring Belisarius back into fighting form. The specs and features of his include:

* extra armour for the chest cavity
* Railgun with extended magazine
* extendable chainsword and underslung flamethrower
* infinite power
* Medical support fitting
* High Efficiency Bubble Seal Mods allowing for 1.5 hours of entirely safe use in a Vacuum
* A neurointruder alert system
* Immunofiltration system
* Ghost Talker Transceiver
* Panspectral Optics
* Comms Server
* Short range jump pack (the wings)
* custom paint job.

(Move 3, AC 18, Vehicle Damage Reduction 9, 35 HP.)
After 50% service costs and 35% Eridanus tax, the suit cost 853,669.50 Imperial Credits.

The Bloody Ruins

A bubbled city created during the Emperor Blood Eagle's Reign, this city was created to further increase the House's efforts in bolstering the Legions output on elite soldiers and officers to the emperor's favored legions. Constructed on the green belt near Campus Martius, this city produced the many of the greatest Legates of its time and had a dedicated parade ground seeing off the mightiest legion of the Empire to date.

It was during the Fall Blood Eagle when the city became under siege and later lost it's sealed environment in the conflict. Only under the short span of an hour survivors had to take cover in old shelters during the city's construction and since then the city remains a skeletal ruin with its inhabitants evacuated to (Other City).

Today the ruins still serves its founding purpose becoming a proving grounds to new Legion recruits and is still used as a mustering grounds for the rare occasions a legion is formed in full.

Guthix Dungeon Guide

This guide was written by Redragon309.

Hi everyone, Redragon309 here and I will be writing up my first guide about the Guthix Dungeon!  Now what exactly is this dungeon?  It is a dungeon that was added as an update, with 3 new bosses!

**But Red, what makes this dungeon so special?**

Good question to ask!  This dungeon has 3 unique weapons that can only be found here, each having their own special attacks, ranging from a blade that can freeze enemies in place to a staff that can pierce through enemy armor like tissue!  Some examples include:

Frostbitten Blade - A magical blade that casts ice spells and requires no runes!

Maul of Infinity - A 2 handed maul that attacks as fast as a whip!

**Esoteric Staff** - A staff that casts a SUPER accurate spell and can pierce even the most toughest bosses!

**Great!  I really want to get all these items!  So how do I get to the dungeon?**

You can get to the dungeon via a Guthix Dungeon Teleport tab, which can only be dropped by Rammernaut (1/20 chance), Giant Sea Snake (1/40 chance), or a Tormented Demon (1/30 chance).  Once obtained, you have access to the dungeon and can access all the bosses.  However, if you teleport out of the dungeon or die, you must obtain another tab from the monster that drop them or from other players, so be prepared if you enter here!

**OK!  So I entered the dungeon, but I can’t attack any other monster other than Godly Ice Friends! What gives?**​​​​​​

Yes, you will need to kill the bosses in sequential order starting with 100 Godly Ice Fiends, followed by 250 To´Kash the Bloodchiller, and finally the final boss, King Rammernaut.

While killing enemies, I always seem to get Guthix Tickets.  What are these for?

These tickets are needed to slay the next boss.  To unlock To´Kash the Bloodchiller, you need to obtain 100 tickets, in addition to slaying 100 Godly Ice Fiends.  To unlock King Rammernaut, you need to obtain 300 tickets, in addition to slaying 250 To´Kash the Bloodchiller.

Tips for the dungeon:

·         Be sure to be prepared for this dungeon.  You must obtain another tab if you leave the place or die.

·         Always have Soul split on, with the exception of fighting King Rammernaut.

·        When fighting the final boss, use prayers that block or deflect magic.

·         Whenever possible, use items (like overloads, prayer renewal, food, etc.). This will help you give an edge over some bosses, especially the final boss.
Attack speeds

There are several different attack speeds in the game and theese should be taken note off when purchasing weapons.

These are the different attack speeds:

* Very Slow (40 sec. / 10 hits )

* Slow ( 34 sec. / 10 hits )

* Fast ( 28 sec. / 10 hits )

* Very fast ( 23 sec. / 10 hits )

* Super fast ( 17 sec. / 10 hits )

* Crazy fast ( 7 sec. / 10 hits )

* Overpowered ( 3 sec. / 10 hits )
Part 3 - End-Game Iron Man

Congratulations! You've made it to the end-game of Iron Man, only very few have reached this so far. Consider yourself an Iron Man elite

End-game tips:
-Doing AFK Zombie Minigame at Double Points is still worth, watch a movie, do some Zombies. Rare clues give decent items and alchables.
-The following grinds are extremely long, if they are to long for you make personal in-between goals
-Find another end-game Iron Man to kinda play together with (do raids together etc)
-Before you alch double items, check if you can perhaps use them for Sacrification points instead.
-Get Amulet of Valor if you didn't have it yet (650k AP), you'll get the 650k AP eventually.
-Save up 60k Loyalty Points for the Veteran wings, these are better then Wyvern wings! Even if you don't play for a (few) day(s) just log-in real quick to claim your Loyalty Points.

1. Grind some more Achievement for Battle-Mage top and legs. DONT buy the helm. Use golden KBD
2. Do Minicorps and make an Arcane Spirit shield by getting the following drops: Spirit Shield, Holy Elixer, Arcane Sigil
3. Do Raids till 7k points, get Wyvern Wings
4. It's time for the Fireblood rapier grind, I recommend grinding for it when 50% drop rate increase is active but it's not a must. You can grind it without the increase.
Use the following set-up:
-Esoteric staff, KBD helm, Legendary ROW, Super restore flask
-Drink 1 overload dose, 1 prayer renewal dose
-Protect item and use ::pho  for quick teleport to Phoenix
-Don't loot ANY charms, trading sticks or clues
-If a PKer comes just let him kill you, keep your prayer up
-If you die by either PKer or you ran out of prayer points, just repeat the process written above.

If you get a Wolf Bow it's a nice extra, even if it's your second these beauties sell for a good 50.000 Sacrificial points.

5. After you get a Fireblood it's time to for a Drygore Offhand, do raids for 30k points. Use Esoteric staff when raiding!
6. Grind for Primal boots
7. Do raids till Lighting Body and Legs

You now achieved "regular" maxed iron man melee gear! This is more DPS then Esoteric staff (Fireblood + offhand)

From here on out starts your Sacrificial grind.
