Tiber Septim, Dragonborn, the greatest hero god of Mankind, Talos in Skyrim is revered as a great protector and patron of justice and civil society. Tiber Septim managed to conquer all of Tamriel, thereby ushering in the beginning of the Third Age and founded the Third Empire.
Talos began his military career in the service of King Kahlekein. Very quickly, he gained respect and honor from his colleagues, rising to the rank of general. He took part in the battles for the unification not only of Cyrodiil, but of the whole of Tamirel. Tiber Septim is considered by many to be the greatest emperor in history, and his term in office was 81 years. In Skyrim, Talos is considered one of the most revered gods in the Nine.
Talos’s commandment has always been the phrase: “Be strong. Be brave when fighting enemies and evil. Become in defense of the people of Tamriel.”
Personal life
As you can learn from the Genuine Barenziah series of books, in Skyrim, the imperial Talos had a wife, but there were rumors that this was not an ideal relationship. Most likely, due to the feeling of loneliness in his marriage, Talos, as a result, started an affair with Barenziah, who in the future became the Queen of the Dark Elves. Their romance was passionate and passionate, but ended very tragically. Despite the fact that the emperor did not want to have a child from Barenziah and the court magician assured him of the impossibility of this, she still expected Septim to be an heir. The emperor bitterly regretted that this child was not supposed to see the light. He was a threat not only to him, but to all his sons.
The emperor categorically could not allow this, so he gave the order to get rid of the child of Barenziah using magic. Having lost the child, the Dunmer was no longer able to favor Tiber.
Talos related artifacts
There is Tiber Septim Totem - this is a very powerful artifact that can only be used by individuals in whose veins royal blood flows. The totem makes it possible to control the Numidium - the strongest golem, with which Septim managed to win and unite the whole of Tamriel under his leadership.
Also during these events, the new Knight of Nine (one of the Crusaders of nine), it was with the Blessing of Talos that he managed to defeat Umaril the Unfounded in the end.
Talos Scream
The ballads that Talos conquered Cyrodiil with the help of the Voice should not be taken literally. It is believed that this is a lyrical exaggeration, which relates more to the emperor’s excellent eloquence skills than to his ability to use tu'um.
