Também conhecidos como Cyrodiils, Cyrodilicos, Cyro-Nórdicos e Cyrods Imperiais , os bem-educados e bem-ditos Imperiais são os nativos da civilizada, cosmopolitana província de Cyrodiil. Imperiais também são conhecidos pela disciplina e treinamento de seus exércitos, e o respeito deles pela lei. Apesar de fisicamente menos imponente que as outras raças, os Imperiais têm provado ser diplomatas e comerciantes perspicazes, e com esses traços, junto com sua habilidade notável e treinamento como infantaria, os permitiram subjugar todas as outras nações e raças, e levantar o monumento à paz e prosperidade que compreendem o Glorioso Império. Sua hegemonia tem aumentado e diminuído através das eras, e a maior parte dos historiadores referem a três Impérios distintos, os fins dos quais marcam novas épocas na história Tamriélica.

Ideal Character
Imperials are a very versatile race. They are considered the most balanced race in Morrowind, and are especially suited for adaptability. This is due to the fact that they can specialize in any of the three main archetypes easily with their beginning attributes and skills. Imperial characters do not have a standard combat talent, but their flexibility can be utilized in many situations, and Imperial characters throughout the game will have many varied roles.
Imperials start with the highest Personality of any race, and with their Charm Power, Voice of the Emperor, and with their bonus to Speechcraft and Mercantile, they have no trouble persuading just about anyone or making good trades. To them, training is cheaper and equipment is easily obtainable.
The Lady Birthsign and Lover Birthsign have great synergy with Imperials; starting out with a possible 85 Personality can lead to great things early on, and their Star of the West power can counterbalance the penalties of the Lover's Kiss. Their skill bonus to Speechcraft and their Charm power makes persuasion a powerful tool. Natural Disposition will often be very high, in many scenarios allowing for different opportunities than would otherwise be possible.
Melee combat is most effective for this race. With Imperials' average melee combat attributes, the ideal fighting character would raise Strength, Endurance, and Agility as quickly as possible. They have a bonus to Long Blade, a skill which uses some of the most common and powerful weapons in the game. And to turn the tide of battle they have a useful Power, The Star of the West, which Absorbs Fatigue. In the early game, a character with hand-to-hand as a major or minor skill can combine The Star of the West to level up hand-to-hand and also stunlock most opponents. Even late in the game Star of the West may prove useful.
Stealth and Magic are not hard to utilize for Imperials. With their high Personality, Illusion can be raised immediately, but their other skills and attributes must not be neglected. Magic characters need more Willpower and Intelligence while stealth characters need Agility and Speed. The Atronach Birthsign is a good match for the rich Imperial, as buying Potions of Magicka will make up for its Wombburn effect.
