Saren Vath

Saren Vath is a roleplaying character written and owned solely by CynicalEarth.

Appearance
Saren Vath is lean and broad-shouldered for an elf. An ebony ponytail accompanies his lick of hair, which sits on an old scar that crosses frowning eyebrows and cold crimson eyes and reaches prominent cheekbones housing pursed lips surrounded by thick stubble.

He prefers bonemold armour and ebony weapons.

Background
Born in 4E 58, Saren Vath served in House Redoran valliantly and amassed praise upon saving First Councilor Lleril Morvayn. He defended Morvayn and Raven Rock for over one hundred years until Imperial merchants withdrew all investments in what became an empty mine. Willing to sacrifice comfort for kin, Saren was released from his oath alongside two other Redoran Guards so Raven Rock could sustain itself.

Vath and his "dissidents" reached Cyrodiil mere days into an Aldmeri invasion. The former Dunmeri warriors slew countless opponents and regaled in their renowned valour as soldiers, climbing ranks and honours. However, by the time Emperor Titus Mede II signed his death warrant, only Saren remained out of his fellow Dark Elves.

Titus' diplomatic surrender hurt him harshly and the aging Dunmer has since been traveling Tamriel in an attempt to see the world for which his closest friends died.

Saren's upbringing and formation under House Redoran have honed his smithing, archery and aptitude with spears, longswords, daggers and shields. He also reveres Mephala, Azura and Beothia in adherence to the "Reclamations" and secretly worships Hermaeus Mora.
