The First Emperor

His Majesty, the Grand Imperial Lord of Eldoria, more commonly known as the Emperor of Eldoria or The First Emperor. Is to current knowledge the first and only absolute monarch of the Empire of Eldoria. A being of immense power and ability, the First Emperor is studied by countless scholars seeking to understand his origins, full capabilities, and final fate. It is believed and heavily implied through current evidence that the First Emperor died with his people when he gave his final command. Imperial Scholars of the Empire of Korrisia believe that the First Emperor's final command was one of the first Edicts ever cast, something that the current Overlord of Korrisia, Overlord Aelzan also has the ability to utilize. 
Much was obviously lost in the Burning of Eldoria, but the small pieces of knowledge and information found refer to the First Emperor as a being of grace, compassion, and pure willpower. In battle the Emperor was a fierce combatant feared and favored by the gods. It's even claimed that the First Emperor was able to hold his own in battle against the Betrayer God Kormund for a short time, before exhaustion took hold. Some even believe that the First Emperor was a Chosen of Garenthar, perhaps the only one.
The most important pieces of evidence regarding the First Emperor are in a number of immensely powerful spell scrolls of which mortals do not seem to have the power to cast. The spells are limited due to Mystra's Ban on Magic above the 9th level. The current spells known to scholars: Armor of the First Emperor, Crown of the First Emperor, Regalia of the First Emperor, and The First Emperor's Mantle. None are entirely sure what this magic does, but all know that if it holds even a sliver of the First Emperor's power, they could be both magnificent and dangerous.
