Imperium Sword

History[]

Dragons Rising, Season 1[]

The Merge: Part 1[]

After a video conference with Lord Ras, a hunter commented on Ras' seeming lack of faith in Rapton's abilities. After further annoying Rapton, the latter knocked him away, causing him to drop his inactive Imperium Sword.

Later, Rapton and a platoon of Claw Hunters wielded Imperium Swords as they pursued Riyu to the annual Mech Master 5000 race, where Rapton configured his sword to its taser mode before cautiously approaching the dragon. However, thanks to the intervention of two teenagers, Arin and Sora, the dragon was able to escape until the intervention of Ras, who used an Imperium Sword's blaster function to shoot and stun the dragon.

The Merge: Part 2[]

Lloyd fought a Claw Hunter wielding an Imperium Sword before forcing him into breaking Arin and Sora's cuffs. Rapton wielded one as he clashed with Lloyd. Arin also seized one, but struggled to handle it, accidentally activating its stun mode. After Sora received a Spark from Riyu, she accidentally turned the swords into bombs, forcing the ninja to leap off the train while the Claw Hunters scrambled for cover.

Return to Imperium[]

The Claws of Imperium used their swords to blast and subdue Jiro.

Mindless Beasts[]

Rapton and a platoon of Claw Hunters threatened Sora and Zanth with Imperium Swords.

I Will Be the Danger[]

Rapton and the Claws Hunters geared up with their Imperium Swords as they mounted their Photacs.

The Calm Inside[]

Dr. LaRow, using the Imperium Sword, blasted at Arin and Sora's direction and nearly hit them.

The Battle of the Second Monastery[]

Jordana used Dr. LaRow's Imperium Sword to keep Arin and Sora at bay while Ras was on his way. Shortly thereafter, Sora would take the sword after defeating Jordana, and later threw it at Ras. When Beatrix ordered Ras to be imprisoned, Rapton used the taser mode to incapacitate him.

They Call It Doom[]

After receiving a pardon from the Mucoids due to Lloyd's bravery on the Impossible Path, Rapton brandished an Imperium Sword and started firing at the ninja and Mucoids in gratitude for the opportunity to fight.

Absolute Power[]

Percival Tartigrade and the Imperium Teen Resistance Force used Imperium Swords in stun mode to taze the Imperium Guards surrounding the ninja.

We Are All Dragons[]

Claw Hunters used the Imperium Sword to fight against the Ninja.

The Power Within[]

Rapton handed Nya an Imperium Sword to fight Beatrix with.

Dragons Rising, Season 2[]

The Shape of Motion[]

Rapton and the Claw Hunters, who had rebranded to the Freebooters, wielded Imperium Swords when hunting for the child of the recently murdered Matriarch of the Mountain Dragons against the ninja and Riyu's herd.

Dragons Rising, Season 3[]

The Great Zane Robbery[]

The Freebooters wielded Imperium Swords in combat against Zane and P.I.X.A.L., and later against Nokt and his Dragonian Warriors.

When Doves Cry[]

The Freebooters wielded Imperium Swords in combat against Riyu, Wyldfyre, Sora and Frak.

Abilities[]

• Blade Mode: The Imperium Sword primary takes the form of laser swords.
• Taser: The Imperium Sword can convert into a long metal sword and at the tip it can be used to electrocute opponents.
• Blaster Mode: The Imperium Sword's handle can fold 15 degrees to shoot lasers for long distance attacks. As seen in "The Merge: Part 2", Arin was trying to get one of the swords into a blade, but he accidentally triggered the laser, nearly shooting Sora and Lloyd.
• Whip: The Imperium Sword can also be used as a whip or lasso weapon to capture others. As shown in "The Merge: Part 2", the rope is extremely long and durable as it even took down the Matriarch of the Mountain Dragons.
