He and all of his heirs were murdered (by whom is disputed) in Sun's Dawn {{Year|2E 430}}, thus ending the reign of the {{Lore Link|Akaviri Potentates}} and the Second Empire.{{ref|name=TBOD|{{Cite book|The Brothers of Darkness}}}}{{ref|name=PGE3All|{{Cite book|PGE|3|All the Eras of Man}}}} Some historians date this event to {{Year|2E 431}}.{{ref|name=PGE1Wild|{{Cite book|PGE|1|The Wild Region}}}} During his reign, he allowed for the reforming of local armies so his vassals could protect themselves properly.{{ref|name=HOTFG|{{Cite book|History of the Fighters Guild}}}} He was a character in the popular historical fiction ''{{Lore Link|2920, The Last Year of the First Era}}''.====Arch-Mage {{LE|Savos Aren}} (?b - {{Year|4E 201}})===={{Lore:Savos Aren}}===={{LE|Selene}}, High Priestess of Shagrath (?b - ?d)===={{Lore:Selene}}===={{LE|Selenu}} (?b - ?d)====A {{Lore Link|Nede}} from ancient {{Lore Link|Skyrim}}, Selenu was the elder of the nomadic tribe who came across {{Lore Link|Lamae Bal}} after she had been infected with {{Lore Link|vampirism}}. She ordered Lamae's cremation, and was attacked when she awoke on the pyre. The {{Lore Link|Selenu}} vampire bloodline was named after her, implying she was infected with vampirism.====Provisional Governor {{LE|Senecus Goddkey}} (?b - ?d)====Provisional Governor of [[Lore:Sentinel|Sentinel]] in {{Year|2E 864}} after the mysterious disappearance of [[Lore:Volag|Baron Volag]].{{ref|name=PGE1Ham|{{Cite book|PGE|1|Hammerfell}}}}====Magus-General {{LE|Septima Tharn}} (?b - {{Year|2E 582}})===={{Lore:Septima Tharn}}===={{LE|Septimus Signus}} (?b - {{Year|4E 201}})===={{Lore:Septimus Signus}}===={{LE|Serana}} (?b - ?d)====The estranged daughter of Lord {{Lore Link|Harkon}} and {{Lore Link|Valerica}}. She and her family became {{Lore Link|Vampire Lord}}s after her father made a deal with {{Lore Link|Molag Bal}} and founded the {{Lore Link|Volkihar}} clan. When this happened is unclear, but it apparently predated the disappearance of the {{Lore Link|Dwemer}} in {{Year|1E 700}}. As a [[Lore:Daughters of Coldharbour|Daughter of Coldharbour]], her transformation was unpleasant and emotionally scarring due to Molag Bal's cruel nature. Harkon required her blood or her mother's to power {{Lore Link|Auriel's Bow}} to blot out the sun. Valerica hid herself and Serana with the Elder Scrolls to defy Harkon's motives. Eras later when the [[Lore:Dawnguard|Dawnguard]] investigated Dimhollow Crypt, Serana was awakened by the [[Lore:Hero|Last Dragonborn]] and returned to Castle Volkihar. She questioned her father's lust for power and found an ally in the Dovahkiin. The two would travel into the [[Lore:Soul Cairn|Soul Cairn]] to reunite with her mother then searched the {{Lore Link|Forgotten Vale}} and retrieved Auriel's Bow from the last remaining [[Lore:Snow Elf|Snow Elves]] known to exist. Together, they confronted and slew Lord Harkon. Serana was then free to live out her immortal life how she saw fit. Some say she eventually sought out a cure for her {{Lore Link|vampirism}}.{{ref|name=Dawnguard|Events of [[SR:Dawnguard|Dawnguard]]}}===={{LE|Saint Seryn|Seryn}} the Merciful (?b - ?d)====Patron of Brewers, Bakers, Distillers. This pure virgin of modest aspect could heal all diseases at the price of taking the disease upon herself. Tough-minded and fearless, she took on the burdens of others, and bore those burdens to an honored old age.{{ref|name=LOTS|{{Cite book|Lives of the Saints}}}}===={{LE|Severa Magia}} (?b- {{Year|3E 427}})====An [[Lore:Imperial|Imperial]] assassin who was the local {{Lore Link|Night Mother}} and leader of the {{Lore Link|Dark Brotherhood}} on the island of [[Lore:Vvardenfell|Vvardenfell]]. She fell upon her death while hiding in the {{Lore Link|Daedric}} ruins of Ald Sotha, for her whereabouts had become known to the [[Lore:Morag Tong|Morag Tong]], whom had contracted a writ to assassinate her. She was known to possess three {{Lore Link|Sanguine}} items, which had become the covet of Morag Tong Grandmaster Eno Hlaalu and the {{Lore Link|Daedric Prince}} {{Lore Link|Mephala}}.====Archmage {{LE|Shalidor}} (?b - ?d)===={{Lore:Shalidor}}===={{LE|Shezarrine}}===={{Lore:Shezarrine}}===={{LE|Siddgeir}} (?b - ?d)====The {{Lore Link|Empire}}-backed Jarl of {{Lore Link|Falkreath}} during the {{Lore Link|Stormcloak Rebellion}}, and one of the youngest jarls in {{Lore Link|Skyrim}}. He assumed the Jarlship shortly after the Rebellion's beginning, replacing his Stormcloak-supporting uncle, Dengeir, on account of his frailty and old age, or so Siddgeir and his court claimed. Dengeir was succoured with the largely honorary title of Thane, however, he believed that he was actually replaced as a result of Imperial machinations by Siddgeir and Falkreath's nobility. As Jarl, Siddgeir proved indolent and self-indulgent, using his position as Jarl in order to reap lavish benefits, including using the hold's funds to buy himself luxuries, while delegating all responsibility to his court, whom he trusted to see to the needs of the "smallfolk". He also seemed to lack scruples; he took bribes from local bandits, presumably in exchange for turning a blind eye to their activities, although if a group of bandits stopped paying him, he would not hesitate to have them eliminated. He had an amicable attitude towards the {{Lore Link|Thalmor}}, believing that a new day had dawned which veterans of the {{Lore Link|Great War}} could not recognize. He was also intolerant of worshippers of {{Lore Link|Talos}}, believing that they got what they deserved from the Thalmor.{{ref|name=Skyrim|Events of [[SR:Skyrim|Skyrim]]}}====Potentate {{LE|Sidri-Ashak}} (?b - ?d)====An obscure {{Lore Link|Akavir}}i potentate, said to be the last of the strong potentates. Sidri-Ashak was responsible for making improvements to {{Lore Link|Cyrodiil}}'s roads in the {{Lore Link|Second Era}},{{ref|name=OBLecture|[[Oblivion:University Lectures|University lectures]] in [[Oblivion:Oblivion|Oblivion]]}} and is the namesake of [[Lore:Sidri-Ashak Runestones|Sidri-Ashak Runestones]].{{ref|name=Oblivion|Events of [[Oblivion:Oblivion|Oblivion]]}} He advised Emperor {{Lore Link|Brazollus Dor}}, who ruled between the reigns of {{Lore Link|Reman II}} and {{Lore Link|Reman III}}. Neither interested nor skilled in matters of state, Emperor Dor left most of the governing to him, and he proved to be a capable statesman. Sidri-Ashak wrote ''Recollections of a Humble Potentate''.{{ref|name=HKEAYQ|{{Cite book|High King Emeric Answers Your Questions}}}}===={{LE|Silus Vesuius}} (?b - ?d)====An {{Lore Link|Imperial}} {{Lore Link|destruction}} mage, citizen of {{Lore Link|Dawnstar}}, and curator of the Museum of the {{Lore Link|Mythic Dawn}}. He was prompted to open the Museum because his ancestors had been a part of the cult; one of them had even participated in the assassination of {{Lore Link|Uriel Septim VII}}. He considered the museum to be their legacy. Of course, the people of Dawnstar despised him and his museum, but he believed that, rightly or wrongly, the Mythic Dawn changed history and deserved study. In {{Year|4E 201}}, it was rumored he was attempting to recollect the pieces of {{Lore Link|Mehrunes' Razor}} and reforge the dagger so he could add it to his collection.{{ref|name=Skyrim}}===={{LE|The Silvenar}}===={{Lore:The Silvenar}}===={{LE|Sinderion}} (?b - {{Year|4E 58}})===={{Lore:Sinderion}}===={{LE|Skakmat}} (?b - ?d)===={{Lore:Skakmat}}===={{LE|Skald Felgeif}} (?b - ?d)===={{Lore Link|Nord}} Jarl of {{Lore Link|Dawnstar}}. In {{Year|4E 201}}, he was known as Skald the Elder. When he took the throne over 35 years before, he had been known as Skald the Younger. He was an ardent supporter of the {{Lore Link|Stormcloaks}} during the {{Lore Link|Stormcloak Rebellion}}. Many of his subjects considered him demanding, foolish, and unpleasant. They often had to seek help elsewhere when they needed a vital task to get done. He had a particular hatred for {{Lore Link|giant}}s, and without the {{Lore Link|Empire}} to stop him, he put forth bounties on their heads.{{ref|name=Skyrim}}===={{LE|The Snow Prince|Snow Prince}} (?b - ?d)===={{Lore:Snow Prince}}===={{LE|Staada}} (?b - ?d)===={{Lore:Staada}}===={{LE|Svaknir}} (?b - 1E ?d)===={{Lore:Svaknir}}====High King {{LE|Svartr}} (?b - ?d)====High King of Western Skyrim and Jarl of {{Lore Link|Solitude}}. Following the assassination of High King {{Lore Link|Logrolf}} in {{Year|431}}, Logrolf's daughter {{Lore Link|Freydis}} was poised to inherit the crown. Svartr claimed that Freydis was illegitimate and demanded that a {{Lore Link|Moot}} be convened to determine Skyrim's next ruler. Although Freydis was accepted by the Crown of Verity, a magical artifact created to test candidates' worthiness to rule, and named High Queen, Svartr was proclaimed High King by a partial Moot. From then on, Skyrim was divided into an Eastern Kingdom, ruled by Freydis' line, and a Western Kingdom, ruled by Svartr's line.{{ref|name=TCOF|{{Cite book|The Crown of Freydis}}}} During his reign, Svartr was unsuccessful at fending off frequent incursions by {{Lore Link|Orc|Orcs}} and {{Lore Link|Reachmen}} who sought to reclaim lands they felt were rightfully theirs.{{ref|name=OOS|{{Cite book|Orcs of Skyrim}}}}====Count {{LE|Sven Advensen}} (?b - ?d)====Step-father to [[Lore:Barenziah|Barenziah]], the future Queen of [[Lore:Wayrest|Wayrest]] at the end of the {{Lore Link|Second Era}}. Baron of Blackmoor, a small town in central [[Lore:Skyrim|Skyrim]] and father to five sons.{{ref|name=BOQB|{{Cite book|Biography of Queen Barenziah}}}}===={{LE|Symmachus}} ({{Year|2E 865}} - {{Year|3E 391}})====[[Lore:Dunmer|Dark Elven]] general of [[Lore:Tiber Septim|Tiber Septim]]'s army who later became husband to [[Lore:Barenziah|Barenziah]], Queen of [[Lore:Mournhold|Mournhold]]. Father to [[Lore:Hlaalu Helseth|Helseth]] (born in {{Year|3E 376}}) and [[Lore:Morgiah|Morgiah]] (born in {{Year|3E 384}} and named after Symmachus' mother).{{ref|name=BOQB}} Allegedly born the son of a poor miner in Mournhold, Symmachus left the city in his thirtieth year after both his parents were dead. He presumably had a personal grudge against the royal family of Mournhold. Later Symmachus joined the forces of Tiber Septim, took part in the [[Lore:Morrowind|Morrowind]] campaign and was granted a rank of General after the [[Lore:Tiber_Wars#Sack_of_Mournhold|fall of Mournhold]] in [[Lore:Second_Era#Ninth_Century|late Second Era]].{{ref|name=TRB1|{{Cite book|The Real Barenziah, v 1}}}} When little Princess Barenziah and her nurse were found among the wreckage of the city, it was Symmachus who suggested to Emperor Tiber that the child might someday be valuable. Therefore Barenziah was placed with [[Lore:Sven Advensen|Count Sven Advensen]], a loyal supporter who had recently retired from the Imperial Army to his fiefdom in [[Lore:Skyrim|Skyrim]].{{ref|name=BOQB}} About a decade later, when teenage Princess Barenziah ran away from Count Sven's household, it was Symmachus again who had found her in the city of [[Lore:Riften|Riften]]. He took her into his custody, and informed her that she was to be reinstated as the Queen of Mournhold as soon as she turned eighteen. Then he escorted the Princess to the Tiber Septim's court in the [[Lore:Imperial City|Imperial City]], where she had stayed until her adulthood. When Barenziah was eighteen, Symmachus led her to the city of Mournhold to be crowned as a new Queen. Gradually they came to love one another and were married and crowned in a splendid ceremony at which the Emperor himself officiated.{{ref|name=BOQB}} Symmachus reigned in Mournhold as a royal consort for centuries. Always loyal to [[Lore:Empire#Third_Empire|the Empire]], he had won many battles in the [[Lore:War_of_the_Red_Diamond|War of the Red Diamond]] against the supporters of [[Lore:Uriel_Septim_III|Uriel III]] and [[Lore:Potema|Potema]] in [[Lore:Third_Era#Second_Century|3E Second Century]].{{ref|name=TMOP|{{Cite book|The Madness of Pelagius}}}} During the [[Lore:Imperial Simulacrum|Imperial Simulacrum]] in late [[Lore:Third_Era#Fourth_Century|Fourth Century]], when civil unrest spread in Mournhold, Symmachus let Queen Barenziah take their young children and travel to the Imperial City to seek the ear of the Emperor [[Lore:Uriel Septim VII|Uriel VII]], while he remained in Mournhold to deal with the grumbling peasants and annoyed nobility. Some days later he had fallen in battle with the revolting peasants.{{ref|name=BOQB}} When the plot of impostor [[Lore:Jagar Tharn|Jagar Tharn]] was ruined, a rightful Emperor was restored and a tumultous period of Simulacrum has ended, a grand state memorial service was held for Symmachus at the Imperial City, befitting the man who had served the REDIRECT[[Lore:Septim Dynasty|Septim DynastyPessoas S]] for so long and so well.{{ref|name=BOQB}}==References==<references/>
