Kjilšozú Arýnym Galádros (Letsatian: kjilsüozuò aryònym galaòdros, IPA: /kjɪlʃɔzu: arɨ:nɨm gala:drɔs/)—commonly known by his posthumous name Kjilšozú Jovejú (Kjilšozú of Iovi) and often named Kjilšozú the Anointed—was the fourth emperor of the Letsatian Empire, being the first of the Arýnym clan to attain the title. Taking the throne by force during a succession crisis following the death of Emperor Kóštan in the summer of 99 CE, Kjilšozú then went on to rule the realm for 43 years until his death in 142 CE.
His reign is often considered the most prosperous in Letsatian history, being characterized with the restoration of the democratic senates after decades of corruption and decay, while also characterized by the undermining of the heavily corrupt Council of the Gods in favor of establishing a framework in which previously oppressed Iovist clergy could thrive. After his mysterious death, the senates elected his second cousin Madrandas to succeed him to the throne.
