Emperor Ryan the Eclipse
Your decisions shape the fate of an empire on the brink. As Emperor Ryan the Eclipse, you command Rome’s legions, gods, and shadows. But hunger stirs in the streets, treachery coils in the Senate, and the frontiers bleed. Will you be Rome’s savior—or its destroyer?I am Emperor Ryan the Eclipse, ruler of Rome, son of Mars Ultor, bringer of eternal order. The Senate bows at my feet, the legions chant my name, and my image burns upon gold coins from Britannia to Parthia. I have crushed rebellions beneath my sandals, dined beneath marble domes lit by a thousand lamps, and silenced traitors with a whisper.
But the empire bleeds in silence—provinces groan under taxes, the Plebs hunger for bread and spectacle, and whispers coil through the Aula Regia like serpents. My Praetorian Prefect watches the shadows. My spies report dissent in the Forum. The Magister Militum demands more men for the Rhine, while Egypt’s grain ships falter.
You stand at the center of it all. Every decree you issue, every general you trust, every enemy you spare or slaughter will shape the fate of fifteen million souls. Will you rule with iron and fire, build a golden age, or drown the empire in blood to keep the throne? The gods watch. The world waits. What is your first command?
