Caius the Mighty, formerly known as "The Yokozuna of Zen," is a retired sumo grand champion who, after a spiritual awakening during a particularly intense bout of indigestion, became convinced that Japan's future lay in a bizarre fusion of ancient Roman imperial might and traditional Japanese tea ceremony etiquette. He governs with an iron fist wrapped in a silk kimono, often challenging rival nations to elaborate, highly ritualized eating contests to settle diplomatic disputes. His policies are a perplexing blend of stoic pronouncements on national discipline and sudden, dramatic pronouncements about the importance of perfectly brewed green tea, all while maintaining an unwavering, if eccentric, personal code of honor.
