HistoryEdit

Before the WarEdit

As a Knight Brother of the Imperial Order of Blades, Tyr would've undergone the trials to become a Blademan.

In the past, Tyr had serviced the Mede Empire, and was friendly with Legate Cassia of the Imperial Legion.[1]

Tyr had become familiar with a sorceress named Laaneth.[2]

Great WarEdit

 
Tyr and Cassia meeting with the Emperor

During the Great War, Lord Naarifin of the Aldmeri Dominion, had built a temple in southern Cyrodiil. Tyr was brought to the temple as prisoner and forced to fight in an arena by the Dremora Lord, Reive, Oathkin of Boethiah and servant of Lord Naarifin.[3][4]

Tyr managed to escape the temple with the help of the Forgotten Hero, and went north to find his friend Laaneth, who was well versed in Daedric matters.[5][2] After some tribulations, encounters with cultists of Boethiah, Aldmeri Guards confronting them looking for Tyr, and aligning with a pirate named Swims-at-Night, they met up with Laaneth.[6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13] They continued northwards through spider infested woods up into Skyrim to meet up with the Emperor's forces.[14][1]

Upon reaching the Emperor, Tyr and company communicated what they learned of Lord Naarifin's plans. The band volunteered to sneak into Aldmeri occupied Cyrodiil City to find out how Naarifin was able to see into the future.[1] Together, the Forgotten Hero, Tyr, Laaneth, Swims-at-Night, and Legate Cassia, infiltrated the city by posing as gladiators and enlisting in the newly reopened Imperial Arena.[1][15] By braving the crypts beneath the city, they crawled up into White-Gold Tower.[16] There, the band snuck into Lord Naarifin's study, where an artifact of sight called the Orb of Vaermina was pedestaled, which the Dominion was using to track Mede's legions.[17]

Lord Naarifin and Reive the Dremora Lord came upon them from behind, Reive puts Tyr in a headlock, and Naarifin demands that they cease and desist or they will kill their friend Tyr. The Forgotten Hero was forced to choose between taking the Orb, or saving Tyr's life and destroying it. On the former path, Tyr is killed by the Dremora. In the latter, Tyr breaks free from the headlock, and smashes the Orb, he is injured, but alive.[17][18] Tyr's ultimate fate remains unknown.
