Unknown

The Great Imperator is a mysterious figurehead who is synonymous with The New Order, being the figurehead of The New Order. He is also qouted to be the supposed leader of The New Order. He is also seen to be personification of The New Order especially there army.

If real, his motives and identity remain an enigma. There have been no confirmed sightings of The Great Imperator in battle. It is unknown when The Great Imperator was first mentioned though it is most likely during the Tethyr New Order Revolution, where he was used as a figurehead for morale, as a symbol agasint absolutism and a symbol for The New Orders "Imperium" or there absolute power, into what they call The New Golden age and a new order,

## Affiliation the The New Order

Him being the supposed ruler of The New Order, The Great Imperator is often blamed for the atrocoties caused by The New Order. In the Tethyirian New Order Revolution he was used as a personification to describe New Orderism, and as morale. Later on he would be "crowned" and would do multiple speeches, though these speeches qouted as being "not the real Great Imperator." Him being a symbol agasint absolutism, it was a bit odd for him to be crowned as the "monarch" of the New Order, though it seems his title is only him as a figurehead.

The reasoning behind an actor playing as The Great Imperator doing speeches was because the real one was always "busy" planning for the later New Order Knows No Borders. It is thought that The Great Imperator being a leader is fully made up and is only propaganda. The real "Great Imperator" being the mysterious New Order government.

## Worship

Within The New Order it is thought that The Great Imperator is worshipped, it is unknown if wether this is forced or by choice though he seems to have a cult personality for being "The one to bring The New Golden Age." Even before New Order Knows No Borders he was praised even by those not within The New Order.

Anti New Orderists believe it is just forced praise of the government of The New Order. The reason being to make The New Order stand out from other places. Within The New Order, worship has been abolished though, of all except The Great Imperator so the Anti New Orderists may be correct.

## Depiction

There are many depictions of The Great Imperator, though the most famous one being a knight, who wears plated armor with red coloring the symbolize The New Order, and he usually rides a horse. This may be because knights bring freedom and so does supposedly The New Order, aswell as paladins within The New Order have a very similar look to the depiction of The Great Imperator. Another depiction is him doing speeches over large crowds, which it is confirmed "The Great Imperator" did speeches but as earlier stated these speeches were not spoken by the true "Great Imperator."

## Personification of The New Order

The most famous belief is he is simply the personification of The New Order and there government. He is very mysterious in the same way as the government of The New Order and is a big figurehead within The New Order. He is usually used as propaganda such as posters, the most famous being "The Great Imperator is always watching," which could be meaning that the government of The New Order knows all that is going on within there interior, which is probably true as its one big slave state run under total watch of soldiers.
