abstract
| - The Governor was born on the planet Yotaro as the child of a wealthy diplomat who had been a prestigious member of the leading party of their country. As a child he was groomed and spoiled, attending the highest education available on the planet and graduating at the top of his class at the age of 14 with a major in Politcal Science and a minor in Psychology. Directly after his studies he went into his political career being elected into the national Senate. However, early into his term tragedy struck as a coup removed the President and his entire cabinet from power. They all lost their lives, including Octavius's father. Congress members began to be taken hostage as the country swiftly mobilized into a military dictatorship and invaded neighboring countries. Octavius, believing himself to be a target of the new regime, escaped into a neighboring country which was also his nation's rival. There he gained political asylum and, due to a lack of regulated laws for running for office, came into power as the leader of the nation. He quickly shifted the entire nation's economy and production towards military and, in a bloody series of battles, cut a swathe straight through to his original nation's capital. His armies captured the city and he had the entire regime of his father's murderers hung. From there, he led the strongest nation of the world as a militant dictator, forcefully annexing all other nations in a series of wars. Thirteen years passed under his rule and as he showed no signs of stepping down, the members of his cabinet decided that he had become too powerful. They performed a coup d'etat to instill a younger, more controllable leader in his place. The Governor escaped his assassins, though, and decided to leave the planet altogether in a spaceship. He lands on a planet inhabited by a primitive sentient race, who soon revere him as a god. He had them perform ritual sacrifices and fight to the death in his honor, until he was visited by a clone of the God of Chaos, Kakó.
