Nicholle
 Empress
of the
Imperium
Incumbent
Assumed office 
457
Preceded by Martin V
Succeeded by Cleon IV

Born 401
Died 475


Empress Nicholle Eleventh in the line of emperors of the Third Imperium. Oldest issue of Martin V. Born 401, proclaimed empress in 457, assassinated 475 by Cleon IV. Second empress to hold the throne.

The fact that Nicholle was assassinated by her successor is indicative of the strained fabric of the Imperium in those days before the Civil War and the Barracks Emperors. The incident, and the pressure of certain member worlds of the Imperium led to the establishment (now somewhat discredited) of succession by right of assassination.


Non-canon

Married in 440 to Mark Sallis Chien, 3rd child of the Archduke of Diaspora.
