Emperor Sanitarium former Senator for the Establishment in the Pioneer Senate. He is the villian the bad guy of the Space Worz saga.
A cunning young man Sanitarium past is rather unknown to even his closest allies. His age and birth place are something that makes even the wisest Java wonder.
Sanitarium was born strong with the Forz but was able to hide it away from everyone releasing it only when he could conceal it once again. Sanitarium's rise through the Establishment ranks came quickly as many of the high ranks dying under a cloud of suspicion. Many believe it was Sanitarium himself who was responblie for their deaths, but none now speak against the Emperor and his Pith Lords.
In the last days of freeom in the galaxy, the then Senator Sanitarium used deception and persuaion to be elected Nabob of the Pioneer Senate.
Once in office he was quick to seize control and appoint himself Emperor of the galaxy. He then declared martial law throughout the galaxy and began to rule through the military forces of the newly created Army of the Establishment.
However Sanitarium had let the Confederacy slip through his fingers and after his military machine had crushed all but the Confederacy he hired Bib McCool the galaxies greatest bounty hunter to find the Rebels base so that the last of the resistance would be crushed.
McCool located the Rebels base and it was during the Battle on Duodena that the Emperor had his first and what he would think his last encounter with Thomas J. Nightmare. The Emperor was surprised how strong the Forz was inside the young man. He order him to be shot there and then to avoid him destroying his plans.
At the same time Sanitarium captured Kari Wuhrer who was due to given birth to Nightmare's child Ewan, who Sanitarium would mold into a Pith Lord. However with encounter by Ben Karoke and Kitster, the child is recovered and Sanitarium escapes the Death Cigar moments before it is destoryed by the Confederate Fleet.
For a few months afterwards Sanitarium isnt seen. But he comes back to lead some of the worst attacks on the Confederacy that seem many thousands die.
Finally the Emperor's powers are overpowered when the remaining Java and the Confederates attack the final Death Cigar. It is here when Bruce Skychannel once again encounters Sanitarium.
Their history goes way back when Skychannel's second Haako apprentice turned to the darkside of the Forz. Sanitarium destroyed him when he attempted to turn back to the Bright side and return to his former master. Skychannel has held a grudge against Sanitarium since.
It is when Nightmare's life is at risk once again as the Emperor hold his fate in his hands that Skychannel gets his ultimate victory when he destroys the Emperor.
He draws on his powers of persuasion and control from the darkest depths of the Forz. While the Forz has deformed his face it has also sustained him well beyond, and even at his old age the Emperor remains a figure of terrible power. The supreme mastery he shows as a Java Knight in one of extreme skill and concentration. This is due to his many years of training and reaching in the Dark Forz. |
