General

The Emperor is the head of the tomb inhabitants.

Of all the terracotta creatures, only the emperor has to be dead before his terracotta form is created. The form must be ready before his death, in his likeness. Then he is recalled from death to take up residence in his body, using powerful magic and the sacrifice of those who willingly join him in the terracotta form.

Combat

The Emperor will always act so as to protect the tomb from robbers and other invaders. Anything (except undead) will be dealt with by being destroyed. Undead are ignored.

In the open, the Emperor works through his generals. He guides them in battle and they guide the troops. The emperor is not a fit General and if left in charge of the troops, his lack of experience and the awe of the troops will mean that a uncoordinated melee results.

Society

A emperor will always have a retinue of other terracotta creatures.
