The Imperialis was a luxury pleasure craft owned by Supreme Chancellor and eventually Galactic Emperor Sheev Palpatine during the Galactic Civil War. While the Imperialis was stolen by the gambler Lando Calrissian and wrecked on the moon Quantxi, the Emperor had several replicas of the vessel housed at his Observatories, which were scattered throughout the galaxy. In 5 ABY, the bounty hunter Mercurial Swift found information about Fleet Admiral Gallius Rax's origins aboard the Imperialis's computers.

- As a result of the corruptive influence of Chaos or xenos to which even the Adeptus Astartes are not immune, Space Marines who have been awarded this honour are often selected by their Chapter to hunt down such foes, such as powerful Chaos Sorcerers or alien psykers. Even when the chance of subversion is negligible, many Space Marine commanders choose such Battle-Brothers for special missions, as they have complete faith that those who earned the Imperialis will always carry out their duty. Some of the more sinister of the Imperium's foes also recognise what bearing the symbol of the Imperialis means for a Space Marine, and it can mark a Battle-Brother for special treatment by xenos or the Forces of Chaos.
