Kamen Rider Imperer (仮面ライダーインペラー Kamen Raidā Inperā?) is one of the 13 Kamen Riders in the tokusatsu production Kamen Rider Ryuki. His true identity is Mitsuru Sano, who is portrayed by Takashi Hyuuga. Kamen Rider Imperer appeared later in the series. He also appeared in the 13 Rider Special and Kamen Rider Ryuuki video game.
Imperer is a melee-based Rider. He does not have the pure brute force of Kamen Rider Tiger nor the weapon skills of Kamen Rider Knight or Kamen Rider Ryuki, as such he relies on his Spin Vent card which gives him a double-drill guantlet. Aside from his Spin Vent, Imperer relies on his mass amount of contract monsters to do the fighting for him, after which he lands the final blow. His Final Vent is pretty much the normal tactics, aside from the fact it causes his gazelles to attack in unison.

[edit] Background
Although he came from an affluent family, Mitsuru Sano worked in a parking garage, occasionally cleaning rich people's cars. His father sent him out into the world so that he could learn the hardships of life and not be soiled by a rich upbringing. Because of his poor lifestyle, he believed friendship, respect, and love could be bought, and thus accepted Kanzaki's proposal to become a Kamen Rider in order to become rich and lead a happy life. After his father passed away, he inherited his father's business and became the boss of a major company. Because of his new found lifestyle, he wanted to give up the Rider war and enjoy his wealth. Kanzaki reminded him of his contract with Gigazelle and what would happen if he did not fulfill his side of the contract.
Imperer was badly wounded by Tiger after he had betrayed him, following an attack by Ouja while attempting to make his escape. Ouja destroyed Imperer's card deck, making him unable to leave the Mirror World. Mitsuru soon evaporated after being stuck in the Mirror World for too long, screaming and begging for help.
[edit] Specifications
Imperer stands out among the other Riders because unlike the rest of them, his color scheme is inconsistent with his respective monster.

[edit] Contract Monster
Imperer is the only Rider to have more than one Advent Monster from the start (unlike Kamen Rider Ouja, who had to kill Kamen Rider Gai and Kamen Rider Raia to gain Metalgelas and Evildiver). Besides his contract monster, Gigazelle, he is also joined by Megazelle and Omegazelle because these Gazelle-type Mirror Monsters travel in a group. Although these monsters aided Imperer, save for the primary Gigazelle, he had no cards for the others, this sometimes results in Megazelle and Omegazella attacking Imperer.
