Human Imperator
Sacred Imperator of all humans Aurial's followers by the divine will of Aurial The Father, or Human Imperator in short, is the official title of the supreme leader of the New Human Empire. It is a hereditary title that usually passes from the father to his firstborn son. Historically there are a few cases when other sons or even once a daughter were crowned as Imperators, respectively Imperatress. This, however, is more an exception than a rule. The Imperator represents secular power and acts as supreme commander in chief. The religious power is detached from him in favour of the Imperial High priest.
Prerequests
A series of humiliating defeats forced members of The Free Coalition to seek closer cooperation and unification, trying to resist Restorationalists' aggression. Negotiations and talks raised the idea of forming a solitary state with unified and centralized command. Most members accepted the concept and gathered Constituent Assembly. There, among other matters, arose the question of who would serve as the Head of State and his or her responsibilities. The initial conception suggested a title, Emperor, very close to the Holy Emperor of the Great Empire, but this was dropped quickly. The first primary concern was such a title was too close to the Emperor in Exile, and the second was fear of concentrating too much power in the hands of a single person.Founding
The consuls and delegates had heated debates and argued for days before finally agreeing on a clear concept. They chose the dialect "Imperator" because of the very negative feeling and dark heritage the word "Emperor" had because of the Mad Emperor. When all votes passed, consuls ensured everything about the Imperator was scribed in detail in the Founding Book, then stamped and consecrated by the Holy Church.Duties, responsibilities and rights
