==Character History==

===The Betrayal of the Mystics===
Before taking on the identity of Imperious, Calindor was a Ancient Titan and a friend of the Mystic Wizards. Before the Great Battle, Calindor was secretly practicing dark magic. He tricked the mystics during the great battle, and told them they would help them, but turned on them. When Calidor tried to take Bowen, Daggeron stopped him, during which time Phineas rescused Bowen, taking him to the human realm. When Calindor and Daggeron's magic clashed, both of them were cursed, trapped in a cave for 19 years until Necrolai found them.

===Imperious Arrives===
After [[Villains in Power Rangers: Mystic Force|Morticon]] was destroyed, Necrolai tricked the Rangers into breaking the seal guarding a small cave, and retrieved the mummified Calindor. [[Villians in Power Rangers: Mystic Force|Octomus]] brought him back to life as the mummy-like Imperious to serve as the new leader of the Underworld, a role Imperious took an immediate liking to. Imperious was annoyed by Leelee's complaining, turning her into an insect. With the ability to summon and free monsters (including himself) from the Underworld, Imperious wasn't hindered by a focus on escaping the Underworld like Morticon was.

===Calindor Returns===
In [[List of Power Rangers: Mystic Force Episodes|Long Ago]], Imperious briefly reassumed his previous identity as Calindor to gain Udonna and the other Rangers' trust, intending to poison Udonna, frame Daggeron as the traitor and steal the Xenotome. Luckily, Clare worked out his true nature and found out from Phineas he was the traitor just in time to stop Imperious from poisoning Udonna, and Daggeron prevented him from stealing the Xenotome and rendering the Rangers powerless.

===Imperious in Control===
In ''Ranger Down'', he dared Koragg to fight without magic, relying on only his physical strength. Koragg agreed, and his magic was turned into a purple Mystic Morpher that was given to Necrolai. Unbeknowest to Koragg, this was just the first step in a much larger plan - to destroy Octomus and rule the world on his own. In the next step of Imperious' plan, Imperious released the four Barbarian Beasts. Warmax and Shrieker were sent to battle the Rangers first, wearing them down, while he secretly dispatched both Fightoe and 50-Below to take out Koragg so he couldn't interfere. Imperious then sent them to battle the Rangers, knowing that their laziness and battle fatigue would cause them to summon Jenji - at which point Fightoe captured him and took him to the Underworld, where Imperious used Jenji's power to wish for a world where the Power Rangers did not exist. This allowed the forces of darkness to conquer the world - Rootcore and the Rock Porium were reduced to rubble, color was nonexistant, humanity was enslaved, and music was outlawed. One thing Imperious hadn't counted on was that Koragg had survived and plotted against them, helping the Rangers to reach the Tribunal of Magic and reverse Jenji's wish, after which 50-Below was destroyed. After the battle, Imperious scolded Fightoe for fleeing from battle and destroyed his body and then used Fightoe's soul to power the war machine monster, Ursus, which was also destroyed.

Imperious later attempted to convince Octomus that Koragg was incompetent and a traitor in order to get rid of the warrior once more, but failed. Realizing he was unable to destroy Octomus as long as Koragg was around and scared of his treachery being discovered, he decided to try to gain Octomus' trust instead by raising him out of the Underworld with the Ranger's Legend powers. He formulated a plan by separating Daggeron from the Rangers, while using his power to create the Chimera to help drag the Rangers down into the Underworld; Udonna's interference and Koragg's transformation back into Leanbow freed the Rangers, but the Master was still rising.

===The Final Battle===
Imperious was on the verge of triumph when it was discovered Daggeron had survived. Imperious challenged him to a bound battle - the two, in their Ancient Mystic Modes, would be chained together and fight with only swords. Imperious cheated, snatching the Solaris Laser Lamp for use and mocking the idea of fighting with honor. Despite this, Daggeron was able to win and mortally wounded his enemy. Imperious regressed back to Calindor and then into the mummified shell of himself before dissolving to dust as he made a cryptic remark about the arrival of the Ten Terrors.
