Lore:Blackrose

The UESPWiki – Your source for The Elder Scrolls since 1995

Blackrose is a major city in the swampy interior of Black Marsh. The city was first mentioned in 1E 1033 when Empress Hestra ordered the Imperial Navy to hunt down the notorious bandit king "Red" Bramman^[1]. After a long search they caught Bramman in his hideout near Blackrose. Later, in the Second Era, Akaviri Potentate Versidue-Shaie ordered a dungeon to be built on the ruins of a extinct community of the vulpine Lilmothii called Blackrose, and to this day it has kept both the name and the status of the most secured prison in Tamriel. Also during the reign of Empress Morihatha, shaken by many revolutions and civil wars, the Lore Master Celarus wrote about the Imperial Battlemage Welloc's battles with the rebellious army of Blackrose^[2].

In the books The Third Door and The Madness of Pelagius people from Blackrose are mentioned, even though the city itself is not.
