Adepticus

Glad-O-War, The Grinning Lion; Lichlord and Colonial God of the New Rozsan Empire

Usually preceded by the Rozsan title 'Vierix', Adepticus was a Colonial God and ruling Lichlord of the New Rozsan Empire. A veteran member of the unofficial ruling council known as the Temporal Vanguard, he answered to twin God-Emperors Nir and Nef.

Adepticus lead several major expansions of New Rozsan and later Nireauan territory, but was eventually laid low by a series of losses against the Kelpeaters in the Middle First Age, and is almost never mentioned in Late First Age writings. He is not known to have survived the Deluge.

History

The second of the Nireauan army’s two supreme commanders, Glad-O-War was responsible for the Coreward front while Echidna's forces explored Voidward. Adepticus lived and breathed warfare: nothing thrilled him more than a strategic disadvantage to be overcome, a new enemy general to outwit or a new weapon to test. In fact it was this enthusiasm that V'Shaat—the lead tactician of the Insurgent Gods—took advantage of, using rumours and planted agents to turn Glad-O-War’s forces against the Insurgents’ other hated enemy, the Kelpeater Empire. Though his ultimate fate is unknown, Adepticus likely met his end against the Kelpeaters some time in the Late First Age.
