Rassilon Romius

"Thaddeus understood that power came through demonstration. My father knew that power came from knowledge, I have learned that power is a corruptive influence. It is a force that spears into ones darkest instincts and makes us into monsters. I will not let that happen to me."

- Rassilon on remembering those that came before him.

Rassilon Bastion Romius, known commonly as Bastion or the Imperial Highness is the son of Alexander Romius, heir to the Imperial throne and leader of the Imperial March movement. He was born years before the Fall of the Federation, where House Romius was a prominent linage on Orisa Septim underneath Alexander Romius and was tutored for most of his early years by retainers of his fathers guard. He experienced the fall of the Federation, the rise of the Orisa Empire and the ascension of his father as Emperor Alexander Romius and was acknowledged as the Imperial Prince throughout human space.

He survived the fall of Orisa Septim during the Colonial War as he was on Orisa Dawn leading what was left of the Imperial Fourth Fleet, unable to leave orbit due to Ion storms that made departure risky. It would not be until years later that he would learn that the Orisa Empire had lost the war and that his father, the esteemed Alexander Romius was executed for crimes against the established United Governments of the Republic.

In an act of defiance, he has spent years in the shadow organizing pockets of Imperial loyalists in the Orisa Protectorate and afar into the Imperial March with the singular goal to restore what was taken from him, and to honor the legacy of his father. Naturally, this has placed him on the most wanted list of the UGR government and thus keeps himself on the move onboard the Alexander, the largest ship in human space.
