=The Emperor=
Ever since Margurim founded the Empire, rule has been passed down through his bloodline. The heir to the throne is usually the eldest son of the current Emperor, then the next brother down if the eldest dies before ascension. If there is not a direct heir as such, then the first male next-of-kin proven to be of the par'Channar line will become the heir. If neither are possible, than the Emperor-appointed leader of the House of Servitude shall be the heir. In the extremely unlikely case that none of those are possible, then the Chancellor of the Imperial University would take the throne. Currently, only a number of Emperors have been detailed thus far. They are as follows, including the key events of their reigns.

*'''Margurim I''': Founder of the Empire and creator of the Founder's Legacy; founded the '''Imperial House of Servitude''' to act as both lesser legislature and governmental archive for the people; founded the capital of Tabula Gloria as well as the village of '''Rausclef''' at the northern border of the Garvenus Steppe
*'''Margurim II''': Founder of the '''Imperial University''' which serves as both a school as well as a research facility; also founded the '''Imperial House of Justice''' to keep order in the Empire into the future; peacefully made a treaty with the '''Eltyain''' of Phrennoack to expand westward to the forest's edge, founding the village of '''Twaunae''' on the banks of '''Crenskaw Creek''' as well as '''Fort Deeanday''' 
*'''Margurim III''': Sought eastward expansion and led the charge to the Benaloran ruins which are now '''Fort Minnamack''', founding the '''Knights of the Goldenstar''' and driving back Drakonid occupiers; also founded the villages of '''Nechbaer''' and '''Kelebrae''' in the process; founded the '''College of Truthseekers''' at the Imperial University to investigate serious crimes against the Empire; also founded the '''Ministry of Inquiry''' within the Imperial House of Justice in order to investigate lesser crimes of the people; died without a direct heir and his brother took over the throne
*'''Alexius I''': Brother of Margurim III; aggressive Emperor who initiated the Empire's second expansion eastwards to the Draknoid ancestral home of '''Drakonhelm'''; expanded south into the Garvenus Steppe, founding '''Fort Thagaisa''' on Stormlord territory as well as the '''Knights of the Southwind'''
*'''Alexius II''': Sought peace with neighbors and willing to concede Thagaisa to the Stormlords; commissioned the '''Eternal Bridge''' at the mouth of the '''Eternal Flow''' in Phrennoack
*'''Margurim IV''': Son of Alexius II; completed the Eternal Bridge; resumed the Empire's aggressive expansionist policies, but had to put them on hold in order to deal with the first coming of the '''Lord of the Tempest''' who sought to ravage the Empire
*'''Margurim V''':
*'''Margurim VI''': Successfully drove back the Lord of the Tempest a second time, though the battle was lengthy and ended up taking the Emperor's life in the process; thus the shortest reign of any of the Emperors thus far
*'''Margurim VII''':
*'''Margurim VIII''':
*'''Margurim IX''': Handily drove back the Lord of the Tempest a third time; sent out an invasion force to decimate the Lord's allies, the '''Raptorlord''' people, only to fail miserably; put on trial by the College of Truthseekers for the failure and its casualties
*'''Margurim X''': Reformed the Imperial House of Servitude to operate more efficiently; sought to build ties with recently-discovered Animar; voluntarily abdicated throne to pursue that goal
*'''Margurim XI''': Continued Margurim X's diplomatic pursuits; commissioned the '''Embassy of Animar''' in Tabula Gloria; commissioned the '''Monument of the Tempest-Breakers''' to commemorate the three battles with the Lord of the Tempest
*'''Margurim XII''': The current Emperor; too early in reign to have any notable events yet
