Shining Prophet

Little is known about the true identity and nature of the Shining Prophet, as his history has been steeped in so much mythologizing and propaganda. It is believed that he originally hailed from Shan Liang and crossed the Scorched Expanse into the country that would become the Imperium Deus in roughly 1140 HE.
What is certain is that the Shining Prophet preached the three pillars of Order, Justice, and Temperance in all things. He established the Church of the Unbroken Wheel in Serpentine, The City of a Thousand Roads in 1170 HE and founded the Imperium Deus. Subsequent God-Emperors of this Holy Empire are said to be the reincarnation of the original Shining Prophet.
