[edit] Taheritae (?b - ?d)

Commonly quoted by Psijics for the following:

In Mundus, conflict, disparity is what brings change, and change is most sacred of all the eleven forces. Change is the force without focus or origin, and it is the duty of the disciplined Psijic (enlightened one) to dilute change where it brings greed, gluttony, sloth, ignorance, prejudice, cruelty ... (Taheritae lists the 111 Prodigalities) ... and to encourage change where it brings excellence, beauty, happiness, and enlightenment. As such, the faithful counsel has but one master, his mind. If the man the Psijic counsels acts wickedly and brings oegnithr ("bad change") and will not be counseled, it is the Psijics duty to counterbalance the oegnithr by any means necessary.

[edit] Tiber Septim (?b - 3E 38)

A general of Nordic descent, Emperor Tiber Septim is regarded as one of the most famed figures in Tamriellian history, reigning from 2E 854-3E 38. In eighty years of battles and wars known as the The Four-Score War that finally culminated in 2E 896, Tiber united all the previously chaotic provinces to form a single empire. He is also responsible for naming the Third Era in 2E 897. He ruled for 38 glorious years and is considered by most the best emperor throughout history. Tiber Septim gave his name to the lineage of Cyrodiil Emperors, the Septims. Tiber is now revered as one of the Nine Divines.

(There are conflicting accounts of Tiber Septim's birthplace, ancestry, and original name. Below are both the officially sanctioned history and the version outlined in the Arcturian Heresy)

[edit] Orthodoxy

Born in Atmora under the name Talos, meaning Stormcrown in the old Ehlnofey. He spent his youth in Skyrim, there learning the ancient art of the Tongues as well as the strategies of war from the chieftains there. At the age of 20 he led the invasion of Old Hrol'dan, taking it back from the Witchmen of High Rock. Soon after this it became known from the arriving storms that the Greybeards were about to speak. As the nearby villages were being evacuated, Talos, instead, made his way to the mountains where the Greybeards lived. When he arrived, the gags of the Greybeards were removed and when they spoke his name the World shook. The Greybeards told Talos that he would come to rule Tamriel and that he must go south to do so.

Talos became General of the Colovian Estates under King, and later Emperor, Cuhlecain. General Talos met the combined army of Skyrim and High Rock on the field of Sancre Tor. The Skyrim army joined his when they saw him use the the thu'um and knew him to be the son of Skyrim and heir to the Empires of Men. He was almost killed, along with Emperor Cuhlecain, in 2E 854 by a High Rock nightblade who slit his throat. Although he could no longer use the Voice, he went on to command Tamriel with a whisper. He took the Cyrodilic name Tiber Septim as well as a Nordic name, Ysmir, the Dragon of the North. Tiber Septim died in 3E 38.

[edit] Heresy

(This alternate story shares many of the details and events of the official version, but differs in key aspects.) Hjalti Early Beard was born on the island of Alcaire, in High Rock. Amidst rumors of a warlord destined to rule Tamriel, he rose to prominence in the service of King Cuhlecain and fought to unify Cyrodiil. Few new of the existence of his secret ally, a long-dead Nordic king by the name of Wulfharth. Wulfharth masqueraded as the young general at crucial moments, winning battles and toppling fortresses with his legendary Thu'um. After the province was conquered, Hjalti murdered Cuhlecain and his contingent in the Imperial City and blamed the deaths and ensuing blaze on assassins from High Rock. Wulfharth continued to aid in his conquests, and Hjalti took the name Talos, ascending to the Ruby Throne.

[edit] Torval the Pilot (?b - ?d)

Torval the Pilot (also known as Topal the Pilot) was an Altmer explorer who discovered the Niben River and charted Tamriel's sea lanes in the Merethic Era. Torval sailed into Topal Bay (which was subsequently named after him) and up through the Niben River until he was deep in Cyrodiil. Here he taught the beastfolk natives how to read and write in exchange for the Eight Islands (the site of the Imperial City and White Gold Tower). Father of the Niben was an epic poem describing Torval's exploration, but only fragments of this poem have survived. He is the patron saint of Leyawiin, where a statue of him can be found in the southwest corner of the town.
