Successor of the [[Sovereign Rune]], Barbarosa became the 17th Emperor of the [[Scarlet Moon Empire]] after victory in the [[War of Succession]]. Hearlded as a patriotic hero, he was known as the Golden Emperor. However, he lost interest in his empire when he met the Court Magician, [[Windy]], who physically resembled his deceased wife, [[Claudia]]. Using Barbarosa's love to her advantage, Windy used her magic to manipulate the empire and soon the nation lost faith in its government and its Emperor. The [[Toran Liberation Army]] under [[Odessa Silverberg]] rose up in opposition to the corrupt empire, while Barbarosa deigned not to fight, leaving the [[Gate Rune War]]'s battles largely in the hands of the Five Great Generals. Barbarosa even helped the Toran Liberation Army briefly, allowing [[Futch]] to escape [[Gregminster Palace]] with the [[black dragon orchid]].  
Successor of the [[Sovereign Rune]], Barbarosa became the 17th Emperor of the [[Scarlet Moon Empire]] after victory in the [[War of Succession]]. Heralded as a patriotic hero, he become known as the Golden Emperor for his benevolent rule in his early reign. However, he lost interest in his empire when he met the Court Magician, [[Windy]], who physically resembled his deceased wife, [[Claudia]]. Using Barbarosa's love to her advantage, Windy used her magic to manipulate the empire and soon the nation lost faith in its government and its Emperor.

At the end of the war, as the Liberation Army marched into Gregminster Palace, Barbarosa made one last stand at defending his empire using the Rugner family treasure, the Sovereign Rune, to transform into a three-headed [[Golden Hydra]]. He was defeated, however, and leapt from the [[Floating Garden]] of Gregminster along with Windy. He has not been seen since, although his body was never found. Despite this, a memorial was built in his honour.
