Argall2

Argall killed by Thaedus

Argall was born on Viltrum and fought his way to becoming the Viltrumite Emperor before the great Purging Civil War between Viltrumites, leading his empire on a conquering crusade of brutal domination across the galaxy, but being praised for his wise leadership above all else. Seeing that the Viltrumites planet conquering was tyrannical and evil, Argall's servant Thaedus chose to betray his race by assassinating Argall by stabbing through his skull and became the first of his race to rebel against the Empire. Argall's death sending the Empire into disarray, leaving his Grand Regent Thragg to lead in his place until Argall's remaining child Nolan could be found to take his place.[1] Argall's skull was kept by Thragg as a reminder of what would happen were the Empire to fall into disarray and his duty to find Argall's heir, despite taking leadership for himself after thousands of years in charge.[2]
