Emperor Titus Mede I was a Colovian warlord and King who siezed control of the Empire in the early Fourth Era.

In 4E 22, he captured the Imperial City with less than a thousand men and seized control of the crumbling Empire from Thules the Gibbering, thus ending the Stormcrown Interregnum. Although the Elder Council had preferred the rule of Thules because he was Nibenese, in the end they were persuaded to accept Titus I as a liberator rather than a conqueror. Not long afterward, Titus I successfully routed the army of another rival for the Ruby Throne, Eddar Olin. He founded the Mede Dynasty, fathered Prince Attrebus Mede, and also had an unidentified brother who was carefully monitored by the Penitus Oculatus to ensure that he made no attempt to usurp Titus I. Titus I still reigned as of 4E 48, the year of the Umbriel Crisis.
