* DragonAscendant: He takes control of the Imperial Guard's forces fighting on Axum after Marshal Doven and his command staff are captured/killed during Quinlan's offscreen raid on the Imperial central headquarters. [[spoiler:It winds up being a ShortLivedLeadership once Ishtara Ordane enters the picture in Episode 27 and decides Shadrick is unworthy to lead, instead assuming command over the Imperials herself while assigning command of the Imperial Guard's forces to the newly-resurrected Saint Lazarus.]]

* SurprisinglyEliteCannonFodder: [[spoiler: Once the surprise from the Republic wears off, the Imperial Guard adapts to their tactics, turning the whole battle for Axum into a bloody attrition.]]

* GeneralFailure: [[spoiler:It is ''very'' hard to understate just how '''stupid''' and self-sabotaging his plan to wipe out the Imperial forces stationed at Axum to consolidate his own power is. The Imperial Remnants of the Xek-Tek Sector, to all practical purposes, ''can't replace their casualties'' due to being cut off from the wider Imperium; there are only so many civilian survivors to draft to replace Imperial military casualties, and once those survivors are drafted, that's it -- there's nobody else to recruit. In contrast, the Galactic Republic has an entire '''galaxy''' to recruit replacements from. They have armies of clone-soldiers that are mass-produced in the millions, they can manufacture battle-droids, and that's before they start militarizing the ''trillions upon trillions'' of civilians at their disposal. Macharion's plan to defeat an enemy that literally outnumbers the Imperial Remnants a trillion to one... was to make the odds against them ''worse''.]]

* TokenEvilTeammate: Alongside the Black Karminians, they are among the few Imperial Guard regiments who are explicitly described as "evil" by the author in contrast to the majority of the Imperial Guard. Their homeworld has a pureblood culture, they abuse and enslave if not outright exterminate Karkosans who are born as mutants (which consist of about 3/4's of all natural births due to a curse placed on their homeworld), and their training camps are deliberately designed to kill as many of the recruits as they can. The Untouchables have been conditioned all their lives to view themselves as monsters and ''brutally'' stripped of any mercy, compassion, or humanity they may have once had. All that remains is an instrument of self-deprecating death.
