Althar Segas of the First Legion: "Created by the command of the Althar Dravet, the ruler of the throne-world of Althar-Nas, the second most powerful figure within the Empire, Segas was destined to be his successor. However Segas refused the call and instead of becoming a ruler, he chose to pursue the path of a warrior. In ordinary circumstances, such insubordination would be punished by death, but Segas' prowess in the Subtle Art was so great that he was granted his wish by the High Matriarch herself. Assigned to the First Blade of the First Legion, Segas achieved much fame and success during his many conquests."
