Regulus is the Dragon-God of Command, Rule, Order, Life, Time, and Lightning. Regulus is considered the warden of Time, by controlling the various strands of possible futures and lived pasts, while also preventing other forces from interfering with Time itself. Additionally, he is the Architect of Life, through which the Draconism followers believe new souls are born in the world as he weaves their designs into existence. Regulus is a Blue Dragon, whose command over the weather and particularly express his Lightning symbolism. Regulus's primary agents are thought to be the birds, his eyes and ears, but also his messengers in the wider world. Regulus himself is always accompanied by his Falcon, on his shoulder, or high in the sky. Regulus is prayed to for direction and meaning, for aid in order and peace. As the Dragon-King, his role in the Conclave of Dragons is to mediate and preserve peace between the Dragons, even when they flaunt his control. His realm is the Central Junction, which rougly covers the lands of the Regalian Archipelago, Eriu Innis, Etosil, Southwynd, and all seas in between. Regulus's largest Temple is the Draackenrust Mountain in Anglia, which is covered in shrines protected and operated by the Stormsong Archon, and the Life Isldar who migrated there. Regulus is strongly connected with the Anglian Witches and is generally seen as the most sociable of the Dragon Gods who speaks frequently to mortals, even if this is often perceived as cryptic. Regulus's current reincarnation is a 45 year old Ailor, also known as the Prince Cedromar of the Regalian Empire, though among his worshipers, he is primarily known and referred to as Regulus or the Imperial Dragon-Prince. Regulus is frequently challenged by the other Dragons, particularly Caius and Nox, both who believe Regulus is too much of a slow-acting centrist, and who tries to mediate too much between sides who will never see eye to eye. Regulus is best known within the Immortal War, as the Dragon whose policy is that of "Radical Life Preservation". What this means is that Regulus is ostensibly anti-Occult, but believes strongly that the Occult have the right to live and thrive so long as they do not endanger the lives of others, and extends a radical view to the protection of life to the non-Occult also. Regulus followers take great care to never kill unless forced to do so to protect other lives, never to step on an insect, never to kill an animal, leading to many of them being vegetarians. Many Regulus worshipers are also Knights and Archon, wielding their strengths and beliefs to protect the lives of anything in the world, no matter how large or small, from those that would seek to end it.
