The Ultimate Emperor, The Smiling Man, The Woken One, also known as Fritz, is a Winter and Heart Hour of the second Mansus, created by PerishedFraud. He is a Nowhere hour that had ceased to be long ago, but has risen again through mist. Buried and forgotten in a lone catacomb of the Mansus, the Emperor found himself waking once more, fueled by forces that even he did not understand. One thing was clear, however - he once again had a cause. Seemingly forsaking his legacy, the Emperor seeks to make a haven in the Mansus under his rule, and all are welcome to help in his mission. Lastly - the Emperor has great powers of over life and death, but refuses to use them on those who don't pledge alliance to him. His number is XIII.
Appearance
The Emperor appears as a middle-aged man in regal but gloomy attire fit for a nobleman. He is an extremely cheerful and pleasant fellow, but always appears saddened. He carries a massive relic-blade as a single reminder of his previous incarnation. His true form is that of a black void without shape or form that travels as liquid, though he refrains from showing this due to courtesy. Rumors gathered from his council say that his domain is in actuality his true form, and that the person/liquid is merely an extension of such. These rumors are not yet confirmed.
Principles
- The Calm - Fear is the Emperor's greatest enemy, and his entire creed enforces that there's no need for alarm, no matter the situation. Suffice to say that he also participates in genuinely improving the Mansus.
- The Ruler - He is a responsible individual - kind and just to all others, doubly so to his followers. Also a great tactician.
- Acceptance - While many hours represent the eventual end of all beings, the Emperor implies that said end is simply another chapter in existence.
Worship
Cult
The Ultimate Empire
A cult that consists of no members so far, though the Emperor had already written a bunch of principles and rules in case he;d ever around founding it.
The specifics involve a caste system that doesn't restrict rights, instead simply offering more boons to devoted members as they advance in rank. Offerings are made with monetary goods or useful supplies, and the greatest of aspirants become Lords or Knights.
Mark
- Temptation: Heritage: I see myself within a grand court, deciding on the matters of the world.
- Dedication: Heritage: Under the Emperor, I will survive. We will survive. Forever.
- Ascension: Fool's Wit: The First Mark brings me visions of inevitable doom. I laugh at it, and at the others.
- Ascension: Noble's Honor: The Second Mark chars my skin, but sets my resolve for salvation ablaze.
- Ascension: Knight's Vow: It is our duty to be beacons for all who wish to remain. I swear under a crest - the Third Mark.
- Ascension: Lord's Title: The Fourth Mark singes my mind, but I share the Emperor's noble cause, and he awaits me on his throne.

Summon The Emperor's Left Hand
A powerful tactician and warrior in his own right, this knight serves the Ultimate Emperor both in the Mansus and in the mortal realm. A charming fellow, by all means.
Be it a nobleman's refined wit or the ebony blade of his halberd, this gallant has your back, so don't worry yourself.
The Imperial Council
The Emperor has no mortal following, but harbors a selection of hand-picked Names which roam the Mansus. They help others in need and spread his word, but ultimately each Council member has the same agenda - to facilitate further development of the Emperor's domain.
The Mansus
Big Castle
Big Castle has a very deceptive name, considering that it is merely a small wooden house on a floating bit of rock near the middle of the Mansus. It came into being shortly after the Emperor's awakening, appearing out of thin air when no one was looking. The Emperor comically refers to it as his keep, though his intentions of making it one are far less pretentious. The interior is cozy and covers the bare essentials of comfort and aesthetic. A nice fireplace, a little wooden table, a makeshift kitchen and a straw bed for resting. The only thing off is the throne, of course.
Gate of Delirium
The pit of death from which the Emperor has risen. Located among the lowest chambers of the Mansus, in a passageway that no one ever thought to tread through. Here lies an array of passages that wrack the body and twist the mind, eventually leading to a gate to nowhere itself which only opens to those with permission.
The Histories
No effect. The Emperor has no desire to meddle with the Histories. He was also asleep.
