Pir'Oth Ix

Imperator Pir'Oth Ix is the leader of the Nocturnus Clan of Echidnas. Born thousands of years ago in Albion, Ix was a part of the advanced scientist caste of the city, which later joined the Second Downunda Colony along with the warrior caste. Upon arriving in Soumerca the settlers ran afoul of the Felidae of the Pais Misterioso and only the warrior and advanced sciences castes chose to stay, the former becoming the Knuckles Clan led by Pachacamac and the latter the Nocturnus Clan led by Ix himself, who became the clan's Imperator. As Pachacamac and Felidea vied with the Nocturnus for the land, Ix pushed his people to advance, becoming technologically advanced to the point that they could've easily defeated the Knuckles Clan, but the Nocturnus were mysteriously whisked away to the Twilight Cage before this could happen in the Argus Event.

Once in the Cage, Ix led his clan to conquest over the other four alien races, which they accomplished by launching fast and brutal raids against their neighbors. Once Ix had the entire Cage in his thrall the Dark Legion arrived in the Zone, but were shunned and mostly ignored by the Nocturnus because of their inferior technology. Following the Legion's departure Ix continued to research the power of the Cage, planning to one day gather enough power to transport the entirety of the Cage to Mobius so the Imperator's clan could conquer the planet and the rest of the universe.
