Strephon (1049-)
(UPP 768ABF)
Forty-third emperor of the Imperium;
oldest surviving issue of Paulo III. Born
in 1049, proclaimed emperor by the Moot
in 1071.
During Strephon's reign, the Fourth Frontier War (1082
to 1084) erupted; his delegation of war
powers to Norris, Duke of Regina, is credited with bringing a
speedy end to a conflict that otherwise would have been hampered by the long
delays in communication between Capital
and the front. Norris later averted a Fifth Frontier War and enabled
peace with the Zhodani; and in partial
recognition of this, Strephon appointed Norris as Archduke of the Domain of Deneb.
