Emperor (Online)

For other uses, see Emperor.

Emperor, also referred to as The Pretenders by the Empress Regent Clivia Tharn,^[1] is a PvP-related title in The Elder Scrolls Online. Despite the title, an Emperor will not have direct access to the Ruby Throne, due to interference by the army of Molag Bal.^[2]

Ascension and dethroning

If an Alliance controls all of the keeps surrounding the Imperial City, the player with the highest Alliance Points will be crowned Emperor.

The Emperor receives an entire skill line which can only be gained through achieving Emperor status. Powers include being able to make siege more effective, being able to knock down walls quicker, and having voice of the Emperor commands.

An Emperor is dethroned when their alliance loses all the keeps necessary to crown an Emperor. The dethroned Emperor will not keep their skill line, and the abilities in it will be lost.^{confirmation needed}

Skill abilities

When a player becomes the incumbent/current Emperor, they will gain several passive abilities. After they are dethroned, said player will lose all the passive abilities.
