People Thought To Be The God Emperor Of Mankind

1: Conan The Cimmerian: Deep in the Hyborian Age, a man was born in the crude wastes of Cimmeria(a region known by many names throughout history); he would go on to fight in many wars, slay Daemons, and eventually become a king by his own hand.

Evidence: This is The Emperor while This is Conan The Cimmerian. In addition, Conan constantly fights demons, and Robert E. Howard's stories lent a good bit to Warhammer Fantasy. Finally, Conan at one point envisions himself "Sitting on a Golden Throne with a Lion Banner Flying Above" (even the Emperor can change his favorite animal.)

2: Any number of religious figures: Really, anyone could be the Emperor putting up an act, but figures such as Moses and Jesus are some of the most likely ones, considering the Emperor would love to bolster his influence.

3: St. George: Specifically the St. George who fought the Dragon, this was in fact the Emperor fighting and imprisoning the Void Dragon on Mars

Evidence: Outright stated in that one story about "The Guardian Of The Dragon"

4: Buckaroo Banzai: Brilliant brain surgeon, racecar driver, musician, experimental physicist, and omniglot, Buckaroo Banzai is mostly known for his development of the Oscillation Overthruster in our time. This device, which allowed vehicles to travel through solid matter "by way of the eighth dimension" was actually an early Warp Drive. The Red Lectroids were Warp Creatures attempting to escape the warp. Approximately one thousand years later, The Emperor assumed the name of Buckaroo Banzai once again, as a Battlemech Pilot and Test Driver, providing the groundwork for the Emperor's great later forces, the Titans.

Evidence: Buckaroo Banzai simply could not have learned and accomplished all that in half a lifetime, especially the multiple PhDs. The Oscillation Overthruster is again, a Warp Device. Both Banzai's work on Battlemechs(proto-Titans) and his being alive a thousand years after he ought to be are evidence. (Sources: "The Adventures of Buckaroo Banzai: Across The Eighth Dimension, Battletech source material)

I figure Ward's middle name starts with a P, and he decided that saying M.P.Ward really fast sounded cool. It's proven by the fact that any Imperial army he turns his attention to suddenly becomes insanely powerful, especially while he influences fluff

Arguing with some people is like playing chess with a pigeon. You can play the best chess in the world, but at the end of the day the pigeon will still knock all the pieces off the board and then gak all over it.

No, because Conan HATES magic (psychics), magic users (psykers), and has no magic (psychic) powers of his own. He would, however, crush the Emporer, see him driven before him, and hear the lamentations of the astartes (women). Plus he worship's Crom.

He clearly was working against the forces of Nurgle in Terra's past.

You know that Freddie Mercury was the Emperor, right? He cut his hair and grew in a 'stache, just to not get recognized. He never died, he just withdrew because Humanity didn't need him. He'll be back, though, when we need him most.
