Kwame Tu'Aruc (also known as Kwame Turae) May 3, 1763(1763-05-03) (aged 69) was a Seran noble and founder of the Seran royal family who served as the first Monarch of the United States of Sera as well as the first and only Lord-General in Seran history. He ascended to the throne after defeating the aristocracy during the bloody Seran War of Unification. The Quadrumvirate previously ruled what would become the United States of Sera would vest their powers and responsibilities into a single, powerful ruler. As such, the Mbaku chief and King of the Sakhile Kingdom chose the son of the Kogan King and daughter of a Latinius Priestess to serve as the King and Queen and the progenitors of the royal family. Their union would signify the unification of the lands making up the Seran people, and to honor this commitment to all people the couple would change their last name from Turae and Arucus and combine them to create "Tu'Aruc".

However, after the death of the members of the Quadrumvirate, the sons and daughters of the kings and chiefs that would lose out on power and inheritance formed a coalition to oppose the new king and queen of the Seran nation. As such, they formed a powerful alliance and rallied a sizable army under their own respective banners to maintain a stranglehold on power by any means necessary. Kwame's first official act as King of Unified Sera was to immediately charge the members of the alliance as traitors to the nation and rallied his own army.

Although the breadth of the fighting would be eclipsed nearly two centuries later in during the Seran Secessionist War, the war still brought widespread devastation and a massive loss of life as a result of the fighting. It wouldn't be until after the Battle of Veridian Fields in January of 1741 did the war conclude with Kwame Tu'Aruc uniting the nation under his rulership.
