Welloc was a wizard active during the fourth century of the Third Era.[1] He was most likely the Archmagister of Skyrim before being appointed by Empress Morihatha to the rarely-filled but powerful position of the Imperial Battlemage of Tamriel. He was the second Imperial Battlemage since the days of Tiber Septim.[2]
Between late 3E 399 and 3E 426, an illusionist named Berevar Bero was known to have publicly criticized Welloc, saying that he was "an accomplished diplomat" but not "a powerful student of the School of Destruction".[1] Others vociferously defended Welloc and cited how on one occasion he cast Vampiric Cloud on the rebel army of Blackrose, thereby sapping their strength and skill and giving it to their opponents.[1]
