He didn't actually kill it - He imprisoned it on Mars and the Ad Mech worship it as a God. Turns out it's a C'Tan.

While I know about the void dragon, it never occurred to me that that's what it "really" was. Thanks for pointing that out  .

He didn't Imprison it.
The Dragon was so scared of the Outsider (who no-one had seen for Hundreds of Millions of years) that he begged the Empra to protect him in return for technological knowledge.
Yes, that is how scary the Outsider is.

No, he is in self-imposed exile in the void IIRC, and it is speculated at that he may be the Hive Mind.

Nor was the Emperor, he was actually a Turk:
http://wh40k.lexicanum.com/wiki/Emperor_of_Mankind#Origins
The Emperor, much later in his life revealed that he was born in the eighth millennium B.C., and his birthplace as Central Anatolia.
In Horus Rising, according to Horus, the Emperor revealed to him that was born in "Anatoly".
The Emperor is the collective reincarnation of all the shamans, the psyker-like individuals who guided early mankind with their wisdom and prophetic powers. The entities that would became the four Great Powers of Chaos had not yet formed when the Emperor was born. But even before the birth of the Emperor, as humanity grew and progressed, the Warp began to become increasingly disturbed, and the shamans began to lose their ability to reincarnate - instead, upon dying their souls were being consumed by the creatures of the Warp. Eventually the shamans, unable to reincarnate, would become extinct, and without the shamans to guide them, humanity would fall prey to Chaos. All the shamans of Earth gathered to decide what must be done. In the end they decided to pool their energies by reincarnating in a single body. The thousands of shamans, as one, took poison, and as one, died. A year later the man who would become the Emperor was born. He would be immortal and so no longer need to reincarnate. As he grew older his powers began to manifest. Over many millennia, he traveled among mankind, using his ancient wisdom to help where he could.
And lets not forget he is THE EMPRA and can appear to be whatever he wants you to think he looks like.
Such examples are when he met Vulkan and Leman Russ.

You mean the English way of saying it, becouse the older spelling should not be used right.
