Arcturus Imperius Valoura

Overview
When measured by legacy and on-going influence, Arcturus Imperius Valoura was arguably one of the three most influential figures in galactic history. Alongside Gregory Sutherland and Luka Reichsgard, he was one of the original authors of the Reichsgard Theory, as well as a founding member of the Third Triumvirate; the leading body of the Global Restoration Initiative in the late 22nd century on Terra. Known for his decisive nature and incredible force of will, Arcturus was a prolific statesman and a born general, compared often to men of such calibre as Caesar Augustus and Alexander the Great.

By age 27 he ascended to the position of King of England and the United Kingdom following the death of the other eligible members of the monarchy's family, and by age 30 - alongside Sutherland and Reichsgard - became one of the key figures in stabilising western Europe. Arcturus Valoura's life was one of honour, sacrifice, and ruthlessness; a legacy that heavily influenced the Valouran Empire and the Grand Imperium it became.

Even 3,000 years following his death, Arcturus Imperius Valoura is held to be a man of intellect and brilliance that has never known a peer outside of his own descendants. His memory exists as a cultural veneration that has often bordered dangerously close - in the eyes of more conservative galactic scholars - to outright deification. Yet in spite of the near religious fervour held by the citizens of the Terran Core Worlds, and for all that Imperial propaganda trumpets his achievements; so too are his sins recorded. In the eyes of more critical and pragmatic thinkers, especially among Mioran society, Arcturus' achievements are tainted by a legacy of imperialistic violence and intolerant brutality that has only grown more pervasive in the three millennia since his death.
