Reborn blackened and ashen, behold the terrible wrath of Dusk House Kallyss’ eldritch marvel: Imperatus, Ashen Phoenix.
Where mortal eyes may struggle to comprehend the nature of Imperatus’s protocol engine, House Kallyss are anything but mortal. Witness how the Dawnguard’s once-noble guardian came to be reborn as the Ashen Phoenix in a new Heroes & Villains entry in the Warmachine app.

Once, before the Sundering, a soldier of the Dawnguard called Imperatus immortal. In a timewhere the elves have passed into the twilight, the truth of that statement has now been proven—not by the machine’s former masters, but by the inheritors of their forsaken realm.
- Nis-Arsyr Tyrus, House Kallyss
A specter of fallen Ios, Imperatus is an imposing and demoralizing sight for the enemies of House Kallyss—an avatar of destruction which rages between its foes like untamed wildfire, deadly blades annihilating all that stands before it with terrible efficiency. The warjack’s form is no longer as it once was; from the ashes of the phoenix has arisen a brutal and savage machine that evidences none of the noble bearing it once held. Where once Imperatus marched at the head of the Legions of Dawn, now it only serves its masters within the Empire of Eternal Dusk.
