The Emperor’s Wrath was the most feared offensive unit in the Geban Empire’s military hierarchy, created during the Era of Imperial Conquest under the Emperor’s Directive. They represented the Empire’s final solution—deployed when diplomacy had already failed. Specializing in total annihilation and direct shock warfare, the Wrath conducted scorched-earth campaigns across resisting territories.
Comprised of the Empire’s strongest and fastest warriors of the pre-Engineered era, they executed high-speed mobile strikes, precision exterminations, and region-wide suppression without negotiation. Known for unrelenting discipline and brutal efficiency, their presence alone implied that no diplomatic option remained. Their operations were often supported by elite units like the Frost Sentinels, whose high-altitude endurance and siege tactics complemented Wrath’s rapid incursions.
After the Fracture, the Wrath fragmented into war factions and border defense groups. During the Shadow Rule era, former Wrath operatives were integrated into covert forces and assassination squads, continuing their annihilation doctrines through clandestine purges.
In the Warlord Eras, rogue elements of the Wrath formed private armies under emergent leaders, while others were co-opted by Shadow Operatives for destabilization campaigns. In the modern era, no intact unit exists, but groups like the New Emperor's Wrath carry on their tactics, training, and culture into modern conflics.
