The Imperial court serves as the centre of the German empire. Nobles and ambassadors all come to meet the Empress under the watchful eyes of her guards

Kaiserin Eva von Brickburg is a relatively young ruler by galactic standards but has had to learn how to operate the machinery of state very quickly thanks to the state of turmoil in the central sectors. She has been aided in this task by her combat experience within the Reichswehr, giving her excellent tactical ability but leaving her big picture grand strategy abilities in question.

Thomas Buchanan became something of a celebrity after his daring escape from Ayanami captivity and could very well have chosen to retire. His continued operation as a diplomat is usually attributed to his sense of honour but in reality he has been sent to the German court by Quantumsurfer Zee for reasons unknown.

While the faceless guards of the Kaiserin serve important ceremonial roles, they also act as an elite reserve force for when the Kaiserin takes to the battlefield, serving as unparalleled swordsman and rallying lesser troops as they begin to waver. The Old Guard, consisting of those favoured by the Kaiserin's father are particularly skilled with their phase disruption blades which tear through even the strongest of armour like paper.
