Fellow Capsuleers of New Eden.
On 8.21.YC117, a Vigilant Tyrannos taskforce, consisting of no less than one-hundred deadly Drifter Battleships (or GÇ£SilverfishGÇ¥ or GÇ£ArgoGÇ¥, as some call them), suddenly and deliberately targeted Empress Jamyl I in the Avatar-class Titan GÇ£SeraphGÇ¥ outside of the Amarr Navy headquarters in Safizon, destroying the Titan and killing Empress Jamyl. This tragic attack has left the Amarr Empire without an Emperor or Empress; with this, we can now assume that the Empire will once again be hosting succession trials for the next Divine Ruler of the most powerful empire in New Eden.
The Heirs of the royal houses of Amarr are as follows: Yonis Ardashipur, of House Ardashipur Merimeth Sarum, of House Sarum Uriam Kador, of House Kador Aritcio Kor-Azor, of House Kor-Azor Catiz Tash-Murkon, of House Tash-Murkon King Garkeh Khanid II, of the Khanid Kingdom Each heir holds tremendous power within the Empire, and each holds a rightful claim to the Amarr Throne, to be determined through the great Succession Trials of Amarr. These trials were last held in November of YC105, following the death of Emperor Heideran IV. During these trials, each Heir was represented by three noble capsuleers of their choosing; these warriors fought for their Heir honorably, leaving Doriam Kor-Azor as the victor of the Trials. Each other heir was then required to commit the ritual suicide, ShatholGÇÖSyn.
These were the last Trials held in the Empire; however, with yesterday's great tragedy, this championship of utmost importance may once again loom.
I come here today to announce and begin to gather support for the Kor-Azor Heir and current Imperial Chancellor, Aritcio Kor-Azor, as the next Emperor of the great and powerful Amarr Empire, should the Trials once again commence. Though I and many of my associates take a neutral position concerning politics, this issue is of utmost importance. The Amarr Empire is the most powerful entity in New Eden in terms of sheer numbers, and such a vast empire necessitates a just and righteous leader. Aritcio Kor-Azor represents the most open-armed, diplomatic, and just of the royal houses; following his dismemberment and regeneration, Aritcio, having been a prone to what can only be called evil tendencies, completely and absolutely shifted his alignment for the better. He became known as the champion of the common man, pushing for just treatment of slaves and heavy limitations on the previously expansive rights of Holders; whatGÇÖs more, the House Kor-Azor is the most diplomatic and outreaching of the Houses, unwaveringly preferring negotiations to war, and engaging in trade with countless partners across the cluster. This does not downplay the houseGÇÖs immense influence and strength, however, and only serves to strengthen its unique position.
In the last succession trials, the champion of each house was required to be True Amarr; his wingmen, on the other hand, were not bound by this requirement. I understand the great importance of the succession trials, and do indeed recognize my place (as, I assume, many would wish to chide me for stepping GÇ£beyond the boundsGÇ¥ of my position). However, I wish to say that, should trials once again commence, I would consider it the greatest honor to be chosen to fight for Chancellor Kor-Azor as the next Emperor of the Amarr Empire. I recognize the near-zero likelihood of being chosen to receive the honor of participating in any way, and as such I hold no impure feelings toward any who strive for that same role. My only goal in this is to support Arictio Kor-Azor in his claim to the throne, and I deeply look forward to working with those of you who feel the same. Despite any alignments or neutralities I hold, I wish only for the continued unity and glory of the Empire.
May the Amarr Empire forever persist.

It is a great loss, the death of the Empress. For all people of New Eden. It is disturbing the power of the Drifter, their lack of communication and their adoption of our own tactics used to fight them evident in how they destroyed her Titan.
Their threat means there is no time to mourn and the Empire must have a new leader,
For this position I also support Imperial Chancellor, Aritcio Kor-Azor. I encourage all Matari, and those who would fly in the succession trials to learn of this man and his actions to better the lives of those below him. The Empress herself made him Imperial Chancellor and under both the lives of all those who are not privileged in the Empire was bettered. His subjects and the slaves who fall under the umbrella of his rule will tell you of this man and how he has helped them live better, more dignified lives. The treatment of those below who you have power of is the surest judge of character.
Slavery is not yet defeated, who rules over the Amarrian Empire matters greatly and Aritcio has proven that he sees Matari as human beings. Under him the lives of all those still trapped in the Empire will improve.
His past is dark and the fear of him returning to that is valid, but if his actions since cannot redeem the man then truly there is no hope for anyone who has

I had assumed that Khanid was a listed participant, but I found that there's no proof that he will indeed be eligible; if he is announced as a possible candidate, I will surely list him. Until that time, I may leave it blank or list him as a "possoble" candidate.

Amarr is indeed great, having so many apparently worthy choices for Emperor. I too would like to see Khanid have their chance. Our gracious Empress, may she forever shine down upon us in heaven, should not have her legacy discarded by disallowing the Khanid from their duties as a full fledged Amarrian house. That may be the crowning glory of her reign is reuniting our broken family.
I will not announce support for an heir until this is corrected, although I am getting conflicting reports on the news. |

As my house is aligned with House Kor-Azor, and Lord Aritcio is not only my political obligation to support, but my personal choice.
He truly cares about those under him, and I have studied his reign and done my best to emulate his policies. There is no better choice than my Lord Kor-Azor. We will need a strong leader in this time of invaders, as well as see to the future after they are gone.

King Khanid is not eligible for succession of the Amarr Empire. I certainly hope everyone here understands that. He gave up that right when he rebelled against the empire.

As he's the owner of one of the Empire's two Iapetan titans and has already fought the rest of the Empire to a standstill over the succession trials once, I think the more salient hope would be that he understand it. |

I am not dismissing him. He gave up his legal right to that when he seceded. Really he would not have been ruler at all if he had not rebelled. I cannot say I condone him, but his resilience is to be admired at least. But that does not make him legally eligible in the slightest last I checked.

Given that the Empress gave him a seat on the privy council and kept The Kingdom's people close to her heart, and was cut down in the spring of her life before she could finish her work, the issue must be clarified so that the houses may set their affairs in order.
This is very important and cannot be ignored, lest chaos and disorder descend upon the Empire. The Theology Council must rule on it. |

She is right. If our King decides to join the Trials, he should most certainly be able to.
But that decision will in the end, be his and his alone.

KHANID VICTOR! Um. Respectfully, Sir Mokk, it seems as though the decision will rest at least as much with the Theology Council ...
... with whom, also respectfully, I seem to remember King Khanid enjoys a kind of adversarial relationship. House Khanid's place in the Imperial succession was assumed by House Tash-Murkon, wasn't it?
Also, isn't the current King Khanid also the original King Khanid? Which would mean he's also seen the succession trials before?
I doubt they'd give him another shot.
Do I remember correctly that he has a son, though?
Edit:
If so, I'm not sure I can see King Khanid placing his son (or himself) in a position where losing would mean either submitting to the rules and committing ritual suicide, or else refusing and reinforcing the Kingdom's standing as a domain in rebellion against the Empire.
Neither seems tenable, so I respectfully doubt he'd take the risk.
... Does the Kingdom even actually want to rejoin the Empire? |

All very good questions, and they are the ones we've been mulling over.
Of course, the Theology Council and Privy Council have a say. But it will all be dependent on whether or not HRM wants to compete. His is a unique position. He is technically an heir and a member of the Privy Council (by decree of Jamyl Sarum), but he is also the sovereign of his own kingdom.
The Tash-Murkons were indeed set as a replacement for House Khanid following our split some 300 years ago. 300 years to Amarr is like 300 years in geological time. A drop in the bucket. Given their Udorian background, it was not a popular choice and they could theoretically be replaced by House Khanid. I would think that both would get to compete in the current Trails though. No one wants to alienate another House at this time.
You are correct, King Garkeh Khanid II, first of his name, is the same who walked away from the Empire following the ascension of Heideran VII (he is first of his name, but named his late father Khanid I). He has named no heir to the Throne of Khanid.
So yes, this is obviously a complicated situation. I have every faith that HRM will ultimately do what is best for the people of Khanid and by extension, the people of Amarr.

Khanid commands one of the greater Amarr Empire's two Iapetan titans. It's a ship that can devastate planets simply by moving into orbit. The Empire has all of one ship that can match it in power, and using that ship would mean it would be exposed not only to Khanid's Iapetan titan, but the Republic's Promethean titans - ie, Ragnaroks.
While it's doubtful that the Ragnaroks would be able to strike a crushing blow on thier own without being used in numbers the Empires seem to find prohibitive, if it were to come to blows between the two Iapetans, Republic titans - especially ones being flown under a false flag in order to assure deniability, say, ships claiming to belong to Goonswarm or Pandemic Legion - would almost certainly be able to take advantage of the battle to fatally assault both.
The Empire cannot afford to anger Khanid at this point. He's already fought the Amarr Navy to a standstill once, and would once again be in a position to undertake the first strike and establish an early OpTempo, if the Theology Council were to exclude him against his will. If he throws his hat in the ring, expect the Council to scramble to find something to bribe him with in order to get him to take it back again.
And expect the Khanid Kingdom to make them pay dearly for that service. |

Khanid has already rejoined the Empire, it was a cause of great celebration to the people of my neighborhood. First at Treaty of Perpetual Friendship under his holiness Emperor Heideran VII and affirmed by his holiness Emperor Doriam II.
Lady Catiz Tash-Murkon expanded trade between our lands. Then, her holiness Empress Jamyl Sarum gave our King a seat on the privy council and King Khanid II declared he recognized her as Empress of Amarr.
Khanid would make a great Emperor. But there is a problem with making our best and brightest kill themselves after forced combat. And so close in proximity to each other. Talk about a brain drain. Is there a limit to God's wrath?
It is the one thing which I believe Dark Amarr and True Amarr will never reconcile, until a more progressive view is had.
It is true that it was never really cleared up between those not within the highest royal circles whether our King's seat on the privy council would grant him a place in the succession trials.
I do not know how such things are decided but clearly it has been decided by someone, somewhere. |

With the Drifters threatening humanity as we know it, we need the Empire to be stronger than ever and the right leader is a linchpin. The succession trial is of great importance for all people of New Eden and I will do my part to find the right successor. I still need to do more research before I can fully declare my support, however Aritcio Kor-Azor may be the man we need.
