Slightly confused here, if he is Maximillian Singularity VI (implying 'the 6th') how can he be first of his name? I have no issue with megalomaniacs per se but they should get the nomenclature right...


I'll try my best to explain...

The titles are traditional where a numbering system does not denote a physical count like parts out of a factory.

In my case, I have been the proponent of the Sixth Empire rising through my talks and sermons. If I were to become Emperor of Amarr, I would be Maximilian Singularity I as my option to choose a name, with a Clarion again decreeing 'first of his name' while at the same time I would also be Maximilian Singularity VI of the Sixth Empire (if it existed beyond an idea which it does not).




Your explanation, though entertaining, is avoiding the basic truth. You are able to simultaneously be Max Singularity I and Max Singularity VI through the multiplicity afforded by you as a Capsuleer. Machines that monitor your vitals and intercept and slavishly record every memory allow you to be copied and inserted into bodies. Bodies are nothing but proverbial canopic jars.


Thus, you can nonparadoxically be both the first of your name as well as the sixth of your own unique kind.


A Jovian gift to man. To sidestep time without melting your core consciousness. Beautiful, is it not?

We are in effect no longer human, we destroyed our true form when first becoming a capsuleer. Now we are nothing more than a digitized consciousness temporarily embedded into our current biological computer form.
