Mr. Tiber Septim


Lived in Era 26, got 1 heir(s) (Calus Septim) and was a member of Templar Crusaders

This story is not about the life of Tiber Septim, but the Legend. He is one of the bravest soldiers to ever walk the battlefield, he has sustained wounds that would kill a lesser man, but he shrugs it off and goes to his men's aid. He has saved the lives of countless men with his quick thinking and Legendary leadership. He is a true Hero.

Long ago when Tiber was young he joined the Imperial Legion and was under the command of General Pental, he took part in a great battle. There mission was to take a heavily guarded fortress named Aleno Yar. Tiber was a fresh recruit but alread an able swordsmen. He was put in command of fifty of the ten-thousand troops under General Pental. His orders were to take out a small fort nearby, the fort contained fifty catalpults and one hundred men and the battle's success rested upon that fort. Tiber took a covert approach and they snuck through a hole in the rear of the fort and lit the catapults on fire. While the enemy was distracted trying to put out the fires the Septim soldiers slaughtered the enemy. Not one man was lost on Tiber's, 100 were lost on the enemies' side.
General Pental decided to promote Tiber to Captain for his bravery and gave him command of fifty more men. It wasn't long until another battle took place...this time it was not far from the capital city of Cidel...
Enemy forces approached and Tiber and his men were in charge of the cities' defence. The Emperor had all of his Generals away on foreign missions and did not forsee an attack.
The sky shone crimson on that day meaning a bloody battle was about to take place. Tiber Septim and his hundred men stood outside the city gates while the city watch where perched upon the city walls, bows ready. All was silent, not a single noise pierced the steel wall of silence.
Suddenly, the silence was broken by the roars of catapults and massive siege engines. One-thousand men walked alongside them.
Men roared and clashed as the battle erupted around them. Tiber slashed and hacked his way through countless men, trying to make his way towards thier commander. If the commander was defeated the odds would change very quickly.
Then, Tiber saw him, clad in silver armor, armed a massive great sword, wearing a silver mask. Tiber charged and swung his sword, the commander blocked and swung at Tiber, barely missing his neck. Tiber lunged at his chest and the enemy commander dodged and swung his sword, Tiber blocked but his sword flew from his grasp by the power of his swing. The commander swung his sword down to give a finishing blow but Tiber rolled sideways and picked up a fallen soldier's spear. Tiber got up and dodged the enemy commander's next swing and pierced his heart with the spear.
Tiber looked around and saw that only fifty of his men remained. He ordered them to retreat to the gates and to defend there. The enemies looked and saw there leader with a spear sticking out of his heart. Some ran away, some mourned there leader, few attacked. With the help of the City Watchmen's arrows Tiber won the battle.
When Tiber approached the fallen commander and removed his mask. To Tiber's supprise, it was the enemy Emperor, Cidel had won...for now.

For his heroism at the battle of Cidel, Tiber Septim was granted the rank of General and was given 5000 men to command and lead through battle. His conquests ranged from one end of the world to the other, he was loved by his men and feared by his enemies.

One day Tiber was assigned to take an enemy stronghold, not a hard task as it was a small stronghold guarded by only a couple hundred soldiers, so they decided to just charge the thing and get it over with. What a big mistake that was, as they charged they saw that it was not a human guard, it was demons.
Demons who could crack a skull with the flick of a wrist, they could jump ten feet in the air and fire an arrow at the height of the jump, and they could sustain ten spears to the back and still crush a skull. Tiber couldnt issue orders in time, the battle had begun!
Tiber joined the battle and slashed at a demon who turned and faced Tiber. "YOU DARE FACE ME HUMAN, DIE SCUM!" The demon swung and Tiber blocked and the Demon blade slashed through Tiber's sword like butter. The demon raised his sword and slashed it through Tiber's neck. "Pathetic human", he muttered as he walked away...

Tiber awoke three days later in a small room. The doctor saw he was awake and screamed in terror. "ZOMBIE", he said as he ran in utter terror. Tiber looked around, it wasn't a hospital, it was a Morgue...Tiber felt around his neck as he remembered the battle, the utter screams of his falling men, and the Demon. Anger boiled in the pit of his stomache, he will slay that demon...one day.
A soldier entered the room with a pike. "You're no zombie, but how in the gods name did you survive, no matter, the general will want to see you."
He walked through the camp and looked at the startled faces gazing at him. "Zombie", one muttered. He reached the General's tent and entered. He saw that the General was General Pental.
"Have a seat, Septim", said Pental. "Four-thousand men are dead Septim, thanks to your foolish action, four-thousand men are dead."
"General, I didn't know they were demons, i thought they were guards", Tiber whispered with strain due to his neck injury.
"Did I teach you nothing, or did it not go through to you, analyze the situation, then strike", said Pental
"What has happened to the enemies' fort said Tiber
"I took over the situation and went there, but by the time I arrived they had all abandoned the fort", said Pental
"Sir...I resign my commision as General", said Tiber
"No Septim, we have an even worse punishment for you..."

two weeks later
Tiber was taken to have an sentancing by the Emperor himself.
"Tiber Septim, your punishment for your misjudgement leading to the loss of human life is banishment from the Empire and all of its provinces, you are to be taken to a foreign land with your twenty-five surviving soldiers and left there, to die or to live..."

Three months later Tiber Septim landed on a foreign island and was stranded there, Tiber approached a village of one thousand native people


The End?



Journal of Tiber Septim

I have acquired a large blank book I will use as a journal of my days events. I am hoping that after my passing people will discover this book and see how I was from my point of view. Maybe somebody will understand my life for what it was, not what the believe it was. And so it is that gaze upon the walls of this study and write this journal.


Journal Day 1049, Era 26
Today I sent a group of soldiers and a small settling party to the river a few miles away. Upon there arrival they saw a beutiful place for a city, they named it Pelagius City, after my son Pelagius Septim. I wish to visit it tommorow and maybe I will make my son the Mayor of Pelagius City. My son will make a fine ruler some day. My other son, Calus has been arrested for being in a bar brawl, I better go get him out.

Journal Day 1066, Era 26
I have been a bit too busy to write in my journal for the past seventeen days. My plans were halted by the destruction of the Septim First army. I have decided on sending my son and a group of fifty soldiers to clear out some a goblin encampment nearby, my son needs the esperiance after all. If I could clear out and enemy fortress with fifty soldiers, hopefuly Pelagius can clear out fifteen goblins in an undefended camp.

Journal Day 1069, Era 26
Three days I have suffered, three days I have mourned, and three days I have wondered...what I did wrong. My son Pelagius is dead, not from the Goblins, but from mercenaries. My son and his platoon arrived at the goblin encampment to find them all dead, they didn't know what to think so they decided to head home, and a company of three-hundred mercenaries met them on the way back...and slaughtered them, on man made it back, a swordsmen who ran when he saw my son fall, I made the soldier a knight and charged him and one-thousand men with destroying the mercenaries. I do not yet know if they were successful. My other son Calus Septim is next in line for the throne, I dearly hope he will get his act together.

Journal Day 1070, Era 26
Calus was arrested again for assaulting a guard, I really did'nt want to bail him out this time but he's my son and I really do hope he'll change, he is drinking heavily now, heavier than he used to because of the loss of his brother, but I wont give up hope that he'll change. If he doesn't then...nobody will be able to take the throne after my death.

Journal Day 1073, Era 26
A man walked by my estate today shouting "The end is near" or something but now im not so sure, the skies are changing and I am wondering if he was right. Calus has become resentful of me and is getting into many fights, I hope he doesn't get into too much trouble.

Journal Day 1074, Era 26
A miraculous thing happened today, Calus was captured by bandits, I know it doesn't sound miraculous but I went to save him myself. And after I was done with them my son called me one of the greatest swordsmen he'd ever seen, he apologized for all of the crimes he had commited and promised to act like a future ruler from here on. I have also recreated The Septim First Army, destroyed by the forces of Messiah. I hope they will prove better than the old one.

Journal Day 1075, Era 26
I visited the grave of my wife today. Oh how I miss her, Dear Solina Septim. She was killed by a still unknown Virus. I plan on teaching Calus the basics of ruling for a while so I may be unable to write for a few days.

Journal Day 1085, Era 26
For ten days I have not Written in this Journal. I've been to busy teaching my son how to rule my Empire. I have also been teaching him to swordfight. He's pretty good. Pelagius would have been proud of his brother.

Journal Day 1096, Era 26
I can no longer ignore the signs, The end of the world is upon us, ive ordered the construction of a shelter to protect the future of my small empire. The skies are growing redder with every passing day. I hope I have not been too late.

Journal Day 1097, Era 26
It is underway and yet, I still do not think I will live through this. Calus will be a fine ruler should I die. I'll be happy to see my wife again.

Journal Day 1101, Era 26
The skies are red and soon fire will be raining from the heavens. The end of the world is still impossible to believe. The shelter is moving along nicely and soon it will be completed.

Journal Day 1114, Era 26
I took back Hysteria and Mewhos from Music and Zeon. Music looks like its going to counter attack but Zeon looks like it's busy. All of this doesn't matter though...not any more.

Journal Day 1115, Era 26
I found an orphan on the streets today, and I decided to take him in. His name is Charlie. He is sixteen years old and seems to have a good head on his shoulders.

Journal Day 1118, Era 26
The gods have abandoned us, nothing grows, no rocks will budge from the earth, and the trees have crumbled to dust. The shelter was almost finished, but it crumbled with everything in it. Hope is lost.

Journal Day 1123, Era 26
Charlie has extraordinary leadership skills and is pretty good with a blade for his youth. If things had been different then maybe he could have been a General. So be it.

Journal 1124, Era 26
The grass around the city has died. I have a large stockpile of food for all my cities though. So few will die. Nothing matters anymore. All hope is lost.

Journal 1130, Era 26
Hope is back! My scouts have found a small cave in the mountains. Large enough for one person. My Empires future is brighter than the skies above!

Journal Day 1135, Era 26
One person, my son. I only hope I have taught him enough. Charlie is a good lad. I only wish I could of known him long.

Journal Day 1137, Era 26
My mages forsee that there are only twenty-two more days left in this world. It is not the end that is bugging me, it is the suffering. The waiting is unbearable.

Journal Day 1158, Era 26
My son and I are heading to the shelter, I have not told him that I wont be joining him. Two more days now.

Journal Day 1159, Era 26
I knocked my son out and threw him in the cave, otherwise he wouldn't have stayed. It started as soon as I got back to Septim City. Fire flying from the sky, washing over the lands it approaches the city. A magnificent sight.

As Tiber stood atop a tower of his Castle, looking over the lands. A voice sounded behind him.
"Long time no see Tiber."
Tiber turned around and saw General Pental standing there.
"I thought I was done with you", said Tiber
"Not quite, the Emperor now wants you dead, but now that I see the inferno approaching, I know we are both going to die", said Pental.
"Thank you for pointing out the obvious, anything else", said Tiber
"How about a swordfight, for old times sake", said Pental
"Yes, im going to enjoy this", said Tiber
Tiber pulled out his blade, Pental pulled out his. Tiber charged and choped down at Pental, but Pental blocked. Pental swung at Tiber's neck but Tiber dodged. Pental kicked Tiber to the ground and held the sword at his neck.
"Goodbye Tiber."
"Not quite"
Tiber rolled from under the sword with amazing speed, jumped up, and kicked Pental. Pental fell to the edge of the tower and got up.
"You can't beat me Tiber."
The tower shook and Pental stumbled and fell. Tiber ran to the edge to see that the inferno was washing over the city, and Pental fell right into in.
"Goodbye Pental", said Tiber
"My time in this life, this world, is over." said Tiber as the fire rose over the tower.

Sir Calus Septim


Lived in Era 27, got 1 heir(s) (Pelagius Septim II) and was a member of Templar Crusaders

This is the story of Calus Septim, born to Tiber and Solina Septim during the 26th era. He was the yournger of two children and he was the ruler of the Septim Empire during the 27th Era. This is his story.

Born to Tiber and Solina Septim during the 26th Era, his mother died during his childhood. He became an alcohalic and got into many barfights and streetfights. On 1066 of the 26th Era his older brother, Pelagius Septim, died in battle against mercenaries. Calus blamed Tiber for his brother's death, making him resentful of his father. One day Calus was captured by bandits and his father rescued him. Upon seeing him fight he realized that if his father couldn't have rescued Pelagius, nobody could.
Calus quit drinking and started learning to become the ruler of his father's Empire. Until Armageddon started. On that day he thought he was going to die. But his father saved him again, sacrificing himself to save Calus, and the future of the Septim Empire.
Calus awoke in the cave and saw that the forrest was burning. He ran to the old site of the Septim City. And found nothing. Calus found all the survivors he could and started rebuilding his father's Empire.
Calus was soon married to Kyraria Julios, who became Kyraria Septim. Calus had two children, one of them being a boy named Pelagius, named after his brother. The other was a girl named Kytara.
Calus groomed Pelagius to be the future ruler of his Empire as his father did to him. Pelagius demonstrated great potential as a leader, and made Calus a very proud father.
Kytara turned out to be a great scientist, discovering cures to many different plagues. Her mother, Kyraria, was not interested in science, but she loved her none the less.

Sir Pelagius Septim II


Lived in Era 27, got 1 heir(s) (Tiber Septim II) and was a member of Templar Crusaders

Pelagius Septim II was the son of Calus and Kyraria Sepim. Pelagius married Adella Dibellus who became Adella Septim. He had one son named Tiber, named after his great-grandfather. Calus Septim was killed in the Battle of Septim City by archers thus making Pelagius the ruler of his father's Empire.

Pelagius Septim II sat in the war room of the Septim Castle. Three other people sat around the table: Calus Septim, Captain Anochus, and a battle-hardened General.

"We need to close the gates, troops can be seen over the horizon",said the General.
"No no no, closing the gates would ruin the morale of our citizens", said Anochus.
"Where the hell did you get your tactical training from, keeping them open would mean enemies puring through", said the General.
"Silence! we will close the gates, this meeting is over", said Calus.

After the meeting Pelagius left to the armory. When he got there he picked up his set of steel armor and put it on. He then walked down to the gates. Five-hundred men stood in front of the gates, the other five-hundred stood on the walls around the city.

Calus stood atop the wall wondering where the General was. He dismisses the thought as he sees the gates start to open.
"What in Akatosh's name is going on", he said as he ran to the gatehouse.

Meanwhile, Pelagius sees enemies start to pour through the gate. He wonders why they opened, shrugs, and charges into the battle. He slashes one across the chest, swings around and decapitates another.
"This is going to be a long fight", thought Pelagius as he continued fighting.

Calus bursts into the gatehouse to find Anochus smashing the lever.
"What the hell are you doing", asked Calus
"My duty", said Anochus
"To whom", asked Calus
"My client", said Anochus as he drew his sword.
Calus drew his sword and charged Anochus. Anochus blocked and slashed at Calus' legs, but Calus jumped over the blade and stabed at Anochus' heart. Anochus parried and slashed at Calus' throat. Calus jumped backwards and awaited Anochus' next attack.

Pelagius cut another poor soldier's head off.
"Retreat", cried a Septim soldier.
Pelagius looked around and saw many dead soldiers, Septim soldiers, and understood. Pelagius ran with them.

Calus blocked another of Anochus' blows and slashed at him. Anochus was too slow and it cut his chest.
"Just a scratch", said Anochus as he lunged at Calus. Calus blocked his attack and cut him again. This time on the neck. Anochus fell to the ground holding his throat.
"My client...will be most...displeased", whispered Anochus as he died.
Calus walked over to the gear mechanism and examined it, but Anochus sabotaged it beyond repair. Calus cursed and walked out.

Pelagius ran with the remaining soldiers to the castle. Once inside they shut the gates.
"Where's Kytara", he asked a guard.
"In the war room", said the guard.
Pelagius ran to the war room and opened the door to see his mother and sister.
"We have to go, we shut the gates but they won't last long", said Pelagius.
"Thank Stendarr your alive, let's go", said Kyraria
Pelagius took his mother and sister and ran to the front of the castle. Pelagius' friend, Garius Hasildor, waited for them at the stairs.

"Been wondering when you would show up, after you", said Garius

Calus ran along the walls towards the castle. He prayed that his family was alright. He saw a few enemies climbing ladders to the walls so he kicked the ladder down and continued on.


"All of you soldiers, follow me, there is a secret way out of the castle that I know of", said Pelagius
"Yes sir", they all said
Calus arrived at the gates.
"Wait for me", said Calus Septim
"Father? Alright! Let's go", said Pelagius
While the Septims and the guards started running, the enemies broke through the wall. One of the soldiers aimed his bow and shot Calus right through the back. Calus fell to the ground. Pelagius turned and ran to his father.
"Run you fool, and...take care of your mother for me", said Calus. Pelagius obeyed and ran from his doomed father.
Pelagius ran to the tunnel entrance waited until all of the people were inside, and jumped through. They walked through the tunnel for several miles until it ended, right under New London.

They stayed in New London for a while, then continued south, to Drakow , where they went east to a small river, after crossing the river they build a small town to try and continue their shattered lives.
Soon, Pelagius fell in love with a lady by the name of Adella Dibellus, whom he soon married. They had one child by the name of Tiber, after Pelagius' grandfather.
Tiber Septim II demonstrated good leadership ability and he was also very good with blades, maces, and bows. Pelagius was very proud of him.
Kytara also found somebody she loved, Garius Hasildor, Pelagius' best friend and Steward. Soon Kytara married Garius and became Kytara Hasildor. And had a child by the name of Caius Hasildor.
Pelagius enjoyed taking walks in the forrest, helped him think, but one day his peace was interupted.

Pelagius treaded on the dirt path of the forrest and stopped.
"Quiet, a bit too quiet", he thought to himself.
He dismissed the thought as he continued onward. Suddenly, an arrow flew down and barely misses his head. Pelagius jumped behind a tree and drew his sword. He peeked around it. One assassin, clad in black clothing, with a black scarf around his neck, was perched upon the tree.
Pelagius returned his head to the cover of the tree and thought up a plan. He was a long three miles from his city so no backup was available. Suddenly, two more assassins jumped around the tree with Scimitars. Pelagius blocked a slash from one while drawing his dirk. The other slashed and Pelagius rolled from his blow, out from the cover of the tree. The bowman shot an arrow that missed by a few inches.
Pelagius blocked another slash from one of the assassins and stabed him in the chest with his dirk. The assassin fell to the floor and the other jumped over his body and brought down his sword. Pelagius rolled backwards and dodged the blow. The bowman shot another arrow and it hit the ground.
The other assassin charged Pelagius and stroke with the force of two men. Pelagius blocked the blow and slashed his right arm with the dirk. The assassin put his sword in his other hand and kept on attacking.
Another arrow was shot from the bowman and it hit the dieing assassin. Pelagius continued to fight the injured one.
"My client wants not only you dead, but your whole family", said the assassin as they fought.
"Who is your client?", asked Pelagius.
The assassin ignored the question. The assassin attacked but missed. Pelagius seized the chance and cut his head off. Pelagius jumped out of the way of a newly fired arrow from the bowman.
Pelagius moved closer and closer to the bowman, hiding behind trees as he fired arrows. When Pelagius got close enough he threw his dirk at him. It hit him in the chest and the assassin fell from the tree. Pelagius walked over to the assassin and saw that he had hit him in the heart.
"No information from this one, better head home", thought Pelagius.
Upon returning to his city, Pelagius told his family of the assassin's attack, and his words.
"Who would want us dead, we have made no enemies", said Garius.
"Maybe one of the neighboring cities", said Tiber
"No, they have bigger fish right now", said Kytara
"Carnage?" asked Caius
"No, we're too far away from them, and all they wanted was our old city", said Garius.
"I'm not sure, but we better keep our eyes open", said Pelagius.

The Septim family remained on constant guard, absolute vigilance was practiced. Two years passed and some of the family got restless, Tiber went on a walk in the woods with two of his friends, Roderick and Nicholas. An arrow flew from the shadow of a tree and hit Nicholas in the neck. Tiber and Roderick ran and hid behind a tree. Ten assassins came out of the darkness and surrounded Tiber and Roderick.
"Prepare to die bo-" said an assassin as an arrow hit him in the neck.
Fifty Septim archers marched in, killing almost all of the assassins. They moved aside and Pelagius Septim II strided up.
"Leave some alive, we might want a bit of information out of them", said Pelagius.
But it was too late, the remaining assassins commited suicide by driving daggers into their chese. Pelagius walked up to Tiber.
"What you just did was stuiped, a man is dead now because of you", said Pelagius.
"I am sorry father, I was getting restless", said Tiber
"RESTLESS, RESTLESS! After what happened to me I would have thought you would put a little more consideration into your actions!", said Pelagius.
Tiber opened his mouth to speak but Pelagius cut him off.
"Not another word, we're going home", said Pelagius.
One of the archers stopped to pick up Nicholas' body and continued to follow Pelagius. Not a word was spoken until they got to the Septim Castle.
"Place the body in the Mortuary, a funeral is to be held two days from now", said Pelagius to the archer.
"Yes Sir", said the archer.
"Tiber, I hope you realize the consequences of your actions tonight, you are the future ruler of my Empire, and you must have good judgment in order to rule", said Pelagius
"Yes father", said Tiber
"Away with you then, I must speak to your mother about this incident", said Pelagius
Tiber ran off to bed and Pelagius went over to his room, where Adella was sleeping. He woke her up and relayed the night's events to her. She told him not to go hard on him and Pelagius agreed, he then let himself fall to sleep.

After Nicholas' funeral Pelagius couldn't find out who sent the assassins, as no more came. He slowly forgot the ordeal and went back to his normal duties.

Soon Pelagius and Adella had another son, whom they named Salius Septim. He was a good leader as all of his family was, but he was a godly warrior. He could defeat twenty Septim knights without gaining a scratch. Many thought him to be a God.
One day Tiber met a woman by the name of Angelus Tallius, whom he loved with all of his heart, as she loved him. Soon they got married, and Pelagius was very proud.
A few years later Pelagius' mother, Kyraria, died of old age. It was a sad day for the Septim family and especially Pelagius, who fell into a year long depression following her death. But when his grandchildren were born he recieved a renewed sense of happiness.
Tiber and Angelus had a son, whom they named Cephorus, and a daughter, whom they named Alessia. They were both good leaders and good warriors. Cephorus was good with his sword. Alessia was good with her bow.
Salius taught Cephorus many good dueling techniques, and Kytara taught Alessia how to use a bow. Alessia also learned how to use short blades such as dirks and daggers effectively.
Salius also found someone he loved, Vaermina Talia, who became Vaermina Septim. Salius and Vaermina had a child a few years later, Calus Septim II. Calus wasn't a naturally talented leader as most of the Septims where but he learned, but he was a hell of a swordsman. He was as strong as his father and twice as fast in his prime.
Caius Hasildor found somebody he loved, Isabella Yelesia, who became Isabella Hasildor. They had one child, Marius Hasildor. He was not a charismatic leader and held no interest in swordfighting, Marius was interested in the arcane arts. He was a talented mage and knew many spells and languages including the languages of Elves, Dwarves, Ogres, Trolls, Halflings, Demons, and of course Humans.
One day, while out on a walk, a man approached Tiber. He had many scars on his face and had white hair.
"Hello Tiber", he said
"Hello", said Tiber
"My name is General Zarrock, I was a friend of your grandfather.
"What? You must be mistaken", said Tiber
"Mistakes are something I don't make many of", said Zarrock
"Alright, I'll give you the benifit of the doubt, what do you want with me", said Tiber.
"Ahhh, it is not you I want, it is Pelagius", said Zarrock.
"Alright, I'll bring you to him, but you can't bring any weapons into the castle, got it?" said Tiber
"Yes, I understand", said Zarrock.
Tiber took Zarrock to Pelagius, and Pelagius didn't recognize him.
"Well, you may remember the invasion of Septim City", said Zarrock
"Yes, of course I do", said Pelagius
"Well, I was the General in charge of Septim forces", said Zarrock.
"I remember now, you were on the war council, nobody could find you during the battle, what happened", said Pelagius
"The tratior, Anochus, took me hostage and gave me to the enemies, it has taken me all this time to escape", said Zarrock
"Well, I'll give you everythi-" Pelagius was cut off by the sudden entrance of a soldier.
"Sir, enemies are invading, overwealming us."
"We need to escape, gather up my family and follow me", said Pelagius.
After they got together they all left towards the back of the castle. Right before leaving Pelagius was shot in the back with a fireball. His body disinigrated.
Nothing was left. But he will always be remembered as a hero, a leader, and a great man.
