Corsen Messer

Corsen Messer or Messer V was the fifth Imperator of the UEE.

He came to power after his sister, Livia Messer, was severely injured in a spacecraft crash while re-entering the Earth's atmosphere, which killed her husband as well as her son, Marius Messer, who would have been next in line.

Corsen Messer widened the range of crimes eligible for capital punishment, raised taxes throughout the UEE, suspended the right to a trial for political crimes, increased censorship, founded the Monumentalist architectural movement, and opened more political prisons on Charon III.

In 2654 the Imperator nationalized all "terraforming support" concerns. As a result, the formerly favored Gold Horizon company collapsed leaving behind space stations that would later be renowned for criminal activity.

Pushed the Monumentalism (strong authoritarian) style of architecture during his (brutal) reign.

In 2670 Charon III received recognition in the Senate via his decree.

Illyana Messer was suspected for orchestrating his assassination in 2662, using poison to kill both him and his elder son Gammon Messer.
