"Controlled chaos...is my new modus operandi."
• Important note: Decimus has taken on a new identity-Victor Tenth. This is a secret; no association should be made between the two. A "mind-fogger" device prevents association between the two, so that he cannot be identified as the Emperor.
ORIGIN: In an alternate universe, the Ancient Roman Empire never fell. Growing to conquer the globe as Roma Maxima, they led society to a new golden age. Without the Dark Ages to impede technological progress, the world soon became a scientific paradise. Justice was always swift and effective, and crime was virtually nonexistent. As the people grew more advanced, they saw the need for equal representation among its citizens, installing a system of government more akin to a republic. The Emperor, however, was still a position held in the government. Seen as a traditional symbol of justice, the Emperor, henceforth known as the "Imperator Imperatorum", would train from birth to become the ultimate guardian of freedom. As a sacred rite, the Emperor would leave his own, peaceful dimension of Roma Maxima, and traverse the dimensional barrier to a new one, where he could colonize it's world, and bring peace and justice with him. Decimus Caesar is the newest of these Emperors. He has travelled to the prime universe, in order to spread his view of justice there as well.
UPDATE: Following the failed invasion of Washington, the loss of all of his troops and family, and the destruction of the Imperial Embassy and the portal, Decimus essentially died. Inventing a new persona, Victor Tenth, he instead decided that justice is an illusion, and any who fight for it are to be opposed. Upgraded with Roman nanomachines, he became far more dangerous, and far more...villainous.
He is currently the CEO of Tenth Industries, a business that he secretly took over and improved. The building is used as a base of operations.
Appearance: Caucasian. Brown hair, brown eyes. Imposing figure that commands authority. He can alter his appearance now due to the nanomachines.
Name: Victor Tenth (True Name Decimus Caesar)
Age: 30 years
Height: 6'5
Abilities: Decimus has been trained from birth to be the best fighter, leader, and tactician possible on his world. His training was supplemented with several virtual reality programs, as well as live-fire combat experience. He can process information at an incredible rate, and is a genius in several fields, including physics and engineering. This is necessary for him to maintain and manage his armor while in combat. Decimus is a master strategist, and he approaches most situations with a competitive perspective. He can make complex calculations in his head relatively easily.
Decimus has trained his mind to be difficult to control via telepathic methods. The Laurel Wreath (now internalized via the nanobots) aids him in these situations by interfacing with his mind and repelling intruders.
Decimus has been conditioned to develop an extremely high pain threshold. He can continue fighting even when gravely wounded.
Personality: Having fallen from his former "Paladin-like" status into an unstable state of near-madness, Decimus, or rather, Victor, as he now calls himself, has made it his mission to eradicate the keepers of the peace of this world and instill himself as ruler. He has become far more subtle, now using secrecy and deception to achieve his goals.
Superhuman abilities: Nanomachines now function within Victor, which are connected to his Central Nervous System and flow throughout his body. They instill him with a massive host of exceptional abilities that complement his skills quite well.
• Extreme reconstructive/healing abilities: The nanomachines are able to reconstruct cells from already existing genetic material, allowing Victor to regenerate from wounds over a period of time. The nanobots can be ordered to focus on particular wounds in order for them to heal more quickly .
• Enhanced thought process/ reaction time: Decimus can think and react to stimuli at astonishing speeds. Victor also stores vast amounts of information with the nanobots.
• Appearance alteration: Victor can alter his outward appearance by making the nanomachines remove his cells and then replace them with new ones that look different. He can alter his bone structure, facial appearance, and other aesthetic structures.
• Nanomachine replication: Victor can replicate the nanomachines and release them from his body, using them to hack machines or infiltrate the body of another in order to control them or disable them. The nanomachines are constantly controlled by Victor's central nervous system.
• Machine interface: The nanomachines allow him to communicate with and influence technology that he comes into contact with. This function is also used to maintain his armor.
Weapons/technology:
OMEGA-PRAETORIAN CLASS ARMOR
The Imperial Praetorian Armor is Victor's most used weapon in his many battles. It has many combat applications and scanning abilities. The armor is exceedingly durable, and though light, it grants the user superhuman strength. It enables controlled flight at speeds up to Mach 8.9 under optimal conditions. It has a steady oxygen supply as well. The armor will use the nanomachines belonging to Victor to regenerate damaged components and armor of it is damaged.
The armor contains a translator that allows the Emperor to communicate with others that do not speak Latin.
Anti-Magnetic countermeasures ensure that the armor cannot be deactivated or held by magnetic or electromagnetic means. They prevent the armor from being shut down or controlled remotely by unauthorized forces.
Anti-Occult countermeasures: Years ago, before his time, a large cadre of wizards attempted a revolution in Roma Maxima. While they were eventually defeated, hundreds of Romans fell to the magical attacks. This caused a massive spike in magical research. While unable to generate or control magic, a system has been developed that greatly reduces the effects of magical attacks and transmutations upon the wearer of the armor, as well as a detection system for identifying wizards.
These countermeasures have been internalized following the bonding of Victor and the nanomachines.
The armor is telepathically controlled via a "Laurel Wreath" on the Emperor's head. It will form around him when summoned by detecting the Wreath. The Laurel Wreath prevents the wearer's mind from being attacked by telepathic means. Ever since the attack on Washington, the Wreath's functions have been internalized as a result of Victor's bonding with the nanomachines.
Special weapons/Capabilities:
"The Bolts of Jupiter": Powerful energy based attacks fired from the palms. Primary method of attack against most foes. Blasts can be regulated to be small and precise, or wide and damaging. Adjustable power levels.
"Neptune's Trident": A small three-pronged "tuning fork" that directs seismic activity. Can be used to cause small earthquakes and tsunamis in the target area, as well as burrow through the ground. When directed against an organic target, it heavily disrupts their equilibrium. The Trident retracts into the glove when not in use. Built into right gauntlet.
"The Helm of Pluto": Strategic personal cloaking device. Prevents Victor from
Being detected by sight, auditory means, computers, magic, enhanced senses such as smell, and even taste. Does not impede the effectiveness of other weaponry.
"The Fires of Vulcan": Potent disintegrator a built into the both gauntlets. Releases a wave of particles that break down whatever they touch. Highly enhanced range since recent upgrade- about 100 meters. Plasma blasts alternate between red and white-hot. Extremely lethal.
"The Eyes of Minerva": A scanner that provides technical readouts on targets. Can be used to identify weak points in enemy physique and technique. It can tag targets so that they can be tracked across great distances. Built into the helmet.
"The Bow of Apollo": A long range weapon that sends energy bolts from gigantic distances. The bolts cause massive damage to a single target with little effect on the area around it, making it an excellent precision weapon. Built into left Gauntlet.
"The Madness of Bacchus": A potent sonic weapon that causes chaos amongst it's targets. Can be fine tuned to attack only one target following post-DC upgrade. Adjustable power levels.
"Diana's net": An energy entanglement device that traps foes within a "stringy" energy field. The bolts also stun the nervous systems of organic targets, preventing them from acting or escaping. Built into the right gauntlet.
"The Imperial Gladius": A powerful blade that extends from the right Gauntlet. The Gladius uses a combination of vibrational molecules and repulsor energy to enhance its cutting power.The Emperor is well-trained in its use, often using it in conjunction with his other weapons.
"The Foresight of Prometheus": A prototype combat computer designed to predict the attacks of opponents before they take place. Though it is installed in the armor, it is still in testing phases, and is not entirely reliable.
THE PRAETORIAN GUARD:
The personal Guard of the Emperor that accompanied him across the dimensional barrier. They also have access to powerful armor, though not on the scale of the Emperor. They alternate in shifts from the portal inside of the Imperial Embassy, located in Washington DC. They are all incredibly disciplined, and they are trained to function in groups. They constantly guard the Embassy. They typically wield laser powered pila, or javelins. They cannot be wielded by Non-Romans due to their design.
As of the Attack on Washington, the Praetorian Guard in Decimus' regiment have all died.
THE "MODEL CITIZEN":
A fake heroic identity crafted into being to deceive the public and lead the new, sinister Champions of Peace. Uses the same weaponry as his regular armor. Only true difference is cosmetic.
