Emperor of Atraeleon

The Emperor of Atraeleon is the absolute ruler of the Atraelian Empire, and is considered to be a divine representative of the sun goddess Atraea. The Emperor is believed to have been chosen by Atraea herself to rule over the empire, and his or her word is considered to be law.
  The Emperor is not just a political leader, but also a religious figure, with the power to appoint high priests and priestesses, declare religious holidays, and even interpret the will of the gods. The Emperor is surrounded by a vast bureaucracy of advisors, courtiers, and officials, who help to administer the empire and ensure that the Emperor's will is carried out.
  The Emperor is also expected to be a skilled warrior and commander, leading the armies of the empire into battle when necessary. The Emperor is often depicted in art and literature as a powerful figure, dressed in ornate armor and wielding a mighty sword or other weapon.
  Succession to the throne is typically determined through a combination of heredity and divine appointment. The current Emperor or Empress is often expected to designate an heir, but ultimately it is the sun goddess Atraea who decides who is best suited to rule the empire.
  The Emperor or Empress is revered and respected throughout the empire, and his or her decisions are rarely questioned. However, this also means that the Emperor or Empress must always be mindful of the impact of his or her actions, as even a small misstep could have dire consequences for the entire empire.
