Name : Dasirius Merethicus Gledrio

Race : Imperial

Class : Egocentric Opportunist

Age : 23

Sex : Male

Appearance : 6'2 tall and of average build, with compact muscles. Merethicus looks quite handsome, or so various women have told him: he keeps his black hair neatly combed and tied back into a long ponytail, and has a short, forked beard on his chin. His face is not marred with scars and his eyes are dark brown, with a slightly unnerving glint to them. He wears a full set of Bonemold armor in the Hlaalu style; that is, with spiky pauldrons and a helm with only a thin slit in the place of his eyes. He fights with a bonemold shield and a silver longsword; none of these items are enchanted. When not in armor, Merethicus wears clothing designed to show that he's richer-than-thou without looking ridiculously gaudy.

Personality : See class. Merethicus is not motivated by a desire to harm others, but views it as an acceptable method to advance his own causes, unless these others happen to be part of his very small circle of friends. Though well-versed enough at manners and etiquette, any politeness and niceties coming from him are usually false; this is largely because the people he usually associates with behave in kind. Merethicus desires power over others and gold as a means to various other things. He's also a tad paranoid; the only one he really trusts is his father, who'd stand little to gain from betraying him.

Brief History : Dasirius is the son of Lucius Merethicus Gledrio, a Cyrodiilic nobleman who came to the isolated district of Vvardenfell to find his fortune and avoid loansharks he'd owed some thousands of septims to. Lucius affiliated himself with the house Hlaalu shortly after his arrival on the island; he rose up through their ranks through dirty work, eventually becoming one of their top enforcers. Having intelligence and charisma as well as brute force and speed, Lucius rose to the lower rungs of House Hlaalu's political leadership in his mid-thirties. Over the next two-and-a-half centuries his wealth and power have steadily increased, and now Merethicus senior is a member of the Hlaalu Council and owns a spendidly opulent mansion in the richest district of the Hlaalu capital of Balmora.

Lucius sired Dasirius a bit later in life, in his forties, to a woman who was young enough to be his own daughter, and was not married to him. He recognized Dasirius as his son, however, and raised him to be his heir. Apart from learning how to navigate and manipulate the morass that was Hlaalu politics, Dasirius was trained in the same fighting style employed by the soldiers of the Hlaalu.

Lucius then sent his son to Cyrodiil to, in his words, "get yourself some favor from the big men in the Imperial City. See how they wage politics. Oh, and find yourself a wealthy heiress or young widow while you're there. Preferably but not necessarily Imperial and beautiful. Now get ye going already, dammit." Shortly after crossing the border, Merethicus heard a call in his head, and thus he headed for the mountains. Long story short, he's now part of the Silhouette's army, and while he does not exactly like it, he's going to stick to it until a better opportunity comes along.

Other Relevant info : Merethicus is strongly allergic to horse hair. This is why he can't travel on horseback and has severe difficulties against mounted opponents. He speaks with a slight accent and often slips Dunmer exclamations into his speech.

Addendum: Here's what he looks like.
