Titus VI was the Emperor of Exponent from 1812 to 1846, and reigned during the Austral War in Teudallum, which relinguished Exponential control over the island of Valle Crucis.

Early life

Titus VI was born in Paradise City to Emmperor Maximinius V and Ryarna, Duchess of Tkena on October 8, 1772. Titus was twelve years old when his grandfather, Marius Augustus I, died and his father ascended the throne.

Emperor of Exponent

Upon the death of his father, Maximinius V, Titus VI took the throne of Exponent at the age of 39. At the time he took control, the Empire of Exponent had been in a state of stagnation following nearly two centuries of decay that severely reduced the size of the overseas empire.

In Teudallum, the Bernadottic Wars were raging, and Titus, like his father, sought to steer a course of neutrality during the conflict. Despite a strong push by many in the government to reclaim Cote d'Cuivre from the distracted Berique, Titus opted to avoid war as much as possible and instead focus on stabilizing the deteriorating economic situation in Hesperidesia - something that he believed would only be made worse by wading into a Teudallic war for a heavily fortified speck of land in Eastern Hesperidesia.

Austral War

Despite his attempts at neutrality, just months after Titus' accession to the throne the Empire of Exponent was pulled into the conflict in Teudallum when Cassonnais forces attacked the island of Valle Crucis, which was then under Exponential rule. The Cassonaise were assisted in their efforts by ships and soldiers from Cadenza, which had long had a rivalry with Exponent.

The Austral War raged on for two years until the destruction of much of the Imperial South Teudallic fleet during the Second Battle of Valle Crucis. Following that defeat, Titus VI was forced to cede Valle Crucis to the Cassonnais, ending centuries of Exponential presence in the South Astyrian Sea and severing a key stopover point for Exponential ships seeking to trade with Western Astyria.

Death

Titus VI died in the Imperial Palace in Paradise City on June 18, 1846, at the age of 73.
