Physically immortal, Aurelian Sigismund is a leftover of an age when a single Empire managed to grab rule of the entire Galaxy within the blink of an eye. Unseen since then, he never forgot about his roots as an Exarch of the Eternal Empire and worked since then to recreate and perfect the method of his body was altered by the master engineers of old Zakuul.
A warrior with millennia of experience, a commander who has seen thousands of battles, a Force user who has seen the Light and dwelled in the Dark, Aurelians true passion is the creation of things and the bringing of enlightenment in form of justice, order and the absence of Force sensitives.
He himself is a potent Force user, but despises the fact and does not see it as anything else than a tool to bring about the end of every Force user who pursues ideology and ideals of balance or even the opposite. There is no middle ground, no compromise for Force sensitives but to bend to the will of the masses, to bow to science. Or break and perish.
Aurelian is probably the only one alive who has witnessed and was tainted by the touch and presence of Darth Vitiate or rather as he knows and worships him, Valkorion, the Immortal Emperor and Master of Zakuul. It is his dream to recreate the dominion of the Eternal Empire of Zakuul and to pursue the ideals and goals of its first Emperor. To whatever end and with whatever means possible.

SERVANT OF JUSTICE
The Exarch of Zakuul, Aurelian Sigismund, had command of a Star Fortress in Sith Space but with a special order to hunt and eliminate all exposed and uncovered Sith powerbases who dared to step out of their homeworlds. Growing quite successful and infamous for both his ruthlessness and efficiency.
During the War against the Alliance, Sigismund held command of a portion of the Eternal Fleet on board his flagship The Phalanx and committed an orbital bombardment, exterminating an entire world in a punitive mission to lure out the Alliance Commander. The death toll was estimated in the hundreds of millions and marked him for a high bounty inside both Sith Empire and Galactic Republic for years after the war.
HISTORIES WITNESS
The years, decades and centuries which followed were marked by self-employment and the trial & error of various Force user groups and governments. He for a long time served alongside the Sith and explored their teachings as far as a sane person would, understanding their arts and approach to the Force before he would quit on their insanely stupid ways and work on his own for a long time. During the New Sith Wars, he would eventually join the Jedi and Army of Light to fight against the Sith and Brotherhood of Darkness, now exploring the Light of the Force just to discover it was as bad if not worse than the Dark side, offering little but hypocrisy and self-righetousness.
A NEW EMPIRE
When meeting the emperor of a new Eternal Empire, Darth Tacitus, Aurelian agreed to become the new High Justice and find both knowledge and resources in the Unknown Regions and Wild Space. Making way there, he would also search for relics and weapons of Iokathian origin. He would serve the Eternal Empire from afar and upon his return aid the new Eternal Empress as far as his will could, never agreeing with her approach to rule and politics.
RIM-GUARD ORDER
Once returning to the Eternal Empire, Aurelian met the new Empress with a distanced attitude. The previous Emperor was gone and apparently much of his zeal and fire as well. But with new resources and knowledge, he founded the Rim-Guard Order as first try to bring Exarch-like super-soldiers to the battlefields of the Galaxy. And he succeeded, even though small in numbers, they proved very effective against the brutes of the Bryn'adûl and various foes of the Eternal Empire of Kalidan, before he would ultimately turn them against Kalidan and the Maw.
THE IRON SUN
Aurelian Sigismund is officially recognised as Moff of Vandemar within the Empire and now seeks to expand his influence cloud and circle of allies, as well as to determine who is an adversary. With active leadership and progressive input he seeks to dominate the imperial weapons research and majorly contribute to the arsenals of the Empire by providing new and better vehicles, armor and weapons.
Meanwhile his pursuit of genetic perfection is reaching its second stage of success, Project: Genesis sees the Empire get a hyper-soldier program which will even make the Death Troopers become second in quality, with the difference that the newly designed clone army will be more battlefield oriented and less covert operations. With the Imperator-program, Aurelian seeks to give the Empire a new generation of absolutely loyal and highly capable commanders.
As before the High Imperator will relentlessly pursue his goal of eliminating Force sensitives from the ruling circles of the Galaxy and undermine their authority, capabilities and trustworthiness whenever possible. He will eventually bring about the age of enlightenment he envisions and destroy what remains of Sith and Jedi. Or so he hopes.
