Blackwood Encyclopedia XVII, Grand Library of Wiki Island, PA 841

The following is the first complete compendium of every (known) God-King to have lived throughout history, both living and dead. The current issue numbers each via order interacted with, nothing else. Please don’t declare war on me because your name doesn’t come up first in this list. Most notes have been compiled through a combination of firsthand accounts and archaeology, though it must be remembered that most firsthand accounts, especially from the early years, are from the God-Kings themselves, and as such subject to personal biases. The following is declared to be as accurate as possible with the information given, as it was edited and compiled by the Queen of Knowledge, Yui Blackwood herself.

Note: First names are always put first for consistency

The following are personal notes, not to be published without further editing. Please make sure you don’t copy the sarcastic comments into the finished products, because it will cause a war. I’m looking at you, Edison. Yes, some of these people really are petty enough for that.

#084 – Juliette

Juliette Francois, an Empress based in the Far East, at least geographically compared to where this was published. She would certainly call this the Far West, the spiteful bitch. She is a tall blonde woman, originally from France.

She began as the ruler of a single tribe (like everyone else, you aren’t special Juli), and soon enough she quickly expanded her burgeoning Queendom, killing several God-Kings within days. Like, you know, a psychopath. One of those early rulers was believed to have been a man named Sam Reed, and the other was an unnamed dark-skinned male (note, be advised that details on this event are sketchy at best and that this is unconfirmed and will need to be subject to further investigation.) (Second note, this is probably King Jamal[54], though if it hasn’t been confirmed yet then it’s unlikely to ever be.) Within a month she had united her home area, gaining two population centers under her control, with a third destroyed.

She established herself as an early power, building one of the world’s first professional armies. While the names of many mortals in the early days have long been forgotten, Juliette herself has kept careful track of all of her important subjects since the beginning. These records have been a great help in understanding the history of the East. Of course, she is also known for having destroyed any records that might make her look bad. Her earliest recorded followers were a woman named Meiling, the first of her vassals who was leader of her tribe before Juliette took over, and Qian, a devotee of Juliette and her first General.

It is also noted that her Imperial Cult[55] began developing during those early days…

#013 – Jamal

Jamal Saad, somehow a decent man the King of Travelers. A nomadic King, he wanders the world with his followers, who are all recorded on the Scroll of Nomads[7], of which a copy is stored withing the Grand Library. (Please stop trying to steal it.)

While not the only nomadic God-King[8], he is unique in his persistent ignoring of borders, which has caused him to come into conflict with several other God-Kings, the absolute madlad. Though it should also be noted he normally gets out of said conflicts by simply leaving the area.

While nobody knows what part of the world he originated in, everybody is aware of his legendary rivalry with Empress Juliette[9], who has vocally expressed her disdain for him several times, which has gained him many allies with her neighbors. This has led some to theorize that he was a victim of her early expansion, though the only ones alive who could confirm this have yet to answer any questions on the topic…

#071 – Fatima

Fatima Aziz is a Queen situated to the North of the Bloody Sea[22], famously known for her diplomacy and brutal sarcasm. She was one of the first God-Kings to forge a lasting alliance, between herself and three other rulers; Avery Montague[23], Issei Tanaka[24], and Li Xian[25].

Her early days were significantly more peaceful than many other rulers, likely due to the agreement of all four of the allies to play ball and stick to the alliance. Had even one of them disagreed (or agreed only to later backstab the others as was distressingly common) then the whole thing would have fallen apart. However, the alliance survived, leading into a much more diplomatic culture in the north, where court politics and silver tongues took precedence over war…

#006 – Joseph

Joseph Johnson, a King based around the southern coast of the Violet Sea[2] [also known commonly as the North Sea, the Southern Sea, and the Nafsiji Sea] and in the midst of the Great Desert[3]. During the early years Post Arrival, he was embroiled in constant conflict with his neighbors over limited resources…
