Sebastien Fontaine

Sebastien Fontaine is the first member of the Fontaine bloodline and the ancestor of all the living descendants of this bloodline. He is long dead, after he killed himself by his own volition.

 Biography Sebastien was a man who lived in the early days of the Second Era. He served as a priest of the Eight Divines (Since Talos didn't exist back then) in his earlier years, with a nearly fervent adherence to them. That was, until his temple was destroyed by a Daedric cult. Sebastien prayed for salvation and strength from the Eight as he watched his brethren get slaughtered helplessly, but none came.

Sebastien, however, wasn't killed, although he was horribly disfigured by the event. He took his bitterness and anger with him, as he joined the very cult he swore to later destroy.

Sebastien discovered his talent for magic and magical processes within the cult, rising up to the ranks, until he eventually became the Grandmaster. He started to use his acolytes as test subjects, as he strove to repair his broken body.

Finally, after mastering the techniques, Sebastien gained undeath via vampirism and replaced his heart voluntarily with a Daedra heart. He then imbibed and endless flow of daedra blood and renounced his allegiance to Molag Bal, curing his vampirism in the process. Sebastien's body was remade during this period.

Of the test subjects among the acolytes whom survived, they all gained extreme daedric powers. Sebastien summoned a Dark Seducer from Oblivion and mated with her forcefully, creating the beginnings of the Fontaine bloodline. He bred his mostly monstrous and deformed children with the acolytes of his cult and mandated the matings, killing deformed offspring. Of all of Sebastien's children, only his twelfth child, his son Ciaran Fontaine, was born without deformity. Ciaran's birth, though, killed his mother.

Eventually, Sebastien successfully bred out deformity and the eldritch nature of his descendants, who form the modern Fontaine Bloodline. He eventually killed himself in a moment of lucidity, when he copied the powers of his twelfth son by mistake, giving him clarity of purpose.  Personality and Appearance Little is known of Sebastien's personality, but from records, he is a very determined person with inhuman levels of perseverance. Sebastien is known to possess the will to keep on carrying on, no matter the costs to his sanity, or the amount of sacrifices he has to make.

Sebastien is apparently insane.

Sebastien has silvery hair and very fair skin, as a consequence of his lack of skin pigments, as his skin was actually damaged beyond repair and replaced by daedric skin grafts, before magic was used to rebuild his entire body. His eyes, like all his descendants, is blue. Powers and Abilities  Equipment
