'''Prince Imrik''' is a [[High Elves (Warhammer Fantasy)|High Elf]] Prince in [[Warhammer Fantasy Battle]]. Also known as '''The Dragonlord''', he is the representative for the High Elf kingdom of [[Ulthuan|Caledor]], a Kingdom known for being the home to Dragons, Volcanoes, and assholes who are so arrogant and up their own ass that even other High Elves have a hard time tolerating them.

He is the last in the line of [[Caledor the Dragontamer]], Which has given him a high amount of privilege and a massive ego.

==Life==

Imrik's story starts where most High Elf princes' stories end, unconscious in the middle of a field after getting his ass whooped by [[Dark Elves (Warhammer Fantasy)|Dark Elves]]. Fortunately for him, before the Druchii could get to work doing god knows what to his anus, they heard the roar of a massive Star Dragon who came flying doing the mountainside to rescue Imrik. The Dark Elves who were stupid enough to stay behind to fight the death lizard where torn to pieces, and The dragon was able to get Imrik to safety. This was Minaithnir, the most powerful of the still living dragons on Ulthuan, who decided he would fight alongside Imrik from now on. Why did he decide this guy who just got his ass whooped would be a worthy partner? Who knows.

Since then Imrik and his new dragon buddy have been travelling all over the Warhammer world, kicking ass and taking names. Not so much in the name of Ulthuan, but to stroke an ego so large that even most other High Elves find it annoying. He sent aid to the Bretonnians against a massive Beastmen horde purely to protect a waystone, then bitched when the Bretonnian king got more kills then him. He always held jealousy over [[Tyrion]] and [[Teclis]] for being more popular than him, and feels like Caledor is doing all the heavy lifting for Ulthuan despite the fact all he really does is go fighting to satisfy his own quests for glory (and that the dragons, not the elves, are the ones doing all that heavy lifting).

He is considered one of the greatest heroes in Ulthuan, but in terms of the lore he is honestly one of the least explored, interesting and flushed out character the High Elves have. He's a haughty royal douche-bag, which is about as generic a personality you can give a High Elf in Warhammer, especially one from Caledor. The only difference is he's willing to get off his ass and do something. Even on the tabletop he was mainly just "A prince on a star dragon but better." Compare him to many other High Elf characters, who are exceptions to the normal rules of the High Elves rather than the norm:

*While most High Elves avoid conflict if necessary due to their dwindling numbers, Tyrion is obsessed with war and conflict as it's the only thing he's good at, along with having anger management problems.  Also, despite being super-popular there's only a few people he's close to.

*Teclis is a cripple who actually wants to support the other races to fight against Chaos, and actually considers their wants and needs, while most High Elves view them barely better than apes.

*Alarielle is pretty much the only Everqueen who has actually goes out fighting instead of deal with more cultural and religious practices.

*While most High Elves find no fault in themselves and think that only Dark Elves and Chaos are a threat, [[Eltharion]] is more cynical to his people and realizes there are other races that can be a threat to Ulthuan.

*Alith Anar is the completely opposite of Eltharion with the same cynicism to his kingdom of Nagarythe. Focus mainly on Dark Elves and their leaders and anyone that trespasses his land. Also a completely edgy loner among the High Elves and the last of his bloodline.

Imrik is the norm, not an exception which makes it hard for him to stand out, and is probably why he hasn't been playable on the table top since 6th edition. He does have two redeemable traits, one being he actually forces the other Princes of Caledor to stop jerking off to photos of their infinitely more bad ass ancestors and do something, and he will uphold his oaths no matter what. This makes him bro tier to an extent, but is still a bit of a dick.

==End Times==
Imrik was such a big dick that he tried to blackmail his way into becoming Pheonix King by refusing to lend anyone in Ulthuan the aid of the dragons unless they crown him (which the dragons were apparently okay with despite their disregard for non-dragon politics), and all this during a major daemonic invasion of Ulthuan.  Tyrion finally had enough of his bullshit and told them that he and Caledor need to get their fucking act together and get their heads out of their asses, threatening to embargo the kingdom if they don't.  Imrik responded by ceding from the Phoenix Throne and declared Caledor independent.  When Tyrion tried to reconcile so they could fight off the daemons, Imrik threw the offer back in his face and decided to join [[Malekith]] after the latter gave back some dragon eggs.  

Yup, this "Hero of Ulthuan" betrayed his people and joined their worst enemy because someone finally stood up to their arrogant BS. What a hero... He survived the destruction of Ulthuan due to his dragon flying them to Athel Loren.

==Total War Warhammer 2==

According to Warhammer Community, Imrik will be released for the game in the form of a Free-LC to accompany the upcoming Warden & The Paunch DLC.
