Imperial Battlemage

The Imperial Battlemage, distinct from Imperial battlemages, is the chief magical advisor to the Emperor of Tamriel and the Elder Council.

The office of the Imperial Battlemage is as fluid and undefined as many other offices in the Empire. Historically, the Imperial Battlemage was the commander of the magical forces of the Second Empire, and in this role acted as an advisor. Zurin Arctus, the first Battlemage of the current Third Empire, served both a military and civil purpose; notably crowning Emperor Tiber Septim.
