Alexander the Great was a notorious conqueror.
In Reality Z-25 31-H, it was a little-known fact that “Alexander the Great's conquest of Persia was as much about claiming [the Philosopher's Stone] as anything else”. However, he died too young to make use of it, and it passed to his general and successor as ruler of conquered Egypt, Ptolemy. (COMIC: Nula! Naked and Alone!)
A painting in the Interdimensional Tavern depicted Volensholagoz as “Alexander Crossing the Alps”. (PROSE: The Winter Quests)
Multiple paintings in Morningstar 1 similarly depicted Governor-105 as “a sort of Alexander or Napoleon figure”. (PROSE: The Resurrection of the Wellsians)
Behind the scenes
In the real world, the Ancient military leader known for “crossing the Alps” is Hannibal, a theme also imitated in a notorious painting of Napoleon. Thus, the painting theme in which Volensholagoz's variation slots in is implicitly from an unspecified alternative history.
