### Type of Character

King

*''King Gronar Iron-Hand* *The King of The Empire is the strong and proud ruler of Cyrodiil as well as The Current Ruling King of all of tamriel itself. One of the longest-serving Protectors of the Empire of Tamriel, King Gronar Iron-Hand  is a terrifying warrior and a true believer in the Imperial Oath, he's traversed the All of Tamriel itself Assembled the Staff of Chaos Freed Uriel Septim and defeated Jagar Tharn in Battle. he has served the Empire and Battled The Ghost of King Lysandus himself, he's traveled across Vvardelfell and Faced off against Dagoth ur. he's battled Tamriel's Most Dangerous Villains and survived. but most of all he's toppled the Elven armies of the Thalmor and brought The Aldmeri Overlord to her knees. In the early days of the 4th era, he conquered Province after Province for the expanding Empire and gained a reputation for personally leading charges against his Enemies. However, once the Empire had established its power and the war began to drag on, King Gronar Iron-Hand found fewer opportunities to directly engage in the fray - a situation that Bored the King.* *The King's riches and powerful army make him a dangerous enemy. Honour and respect are very important to the King but behind all the honor and glory lies a hatred for the Aldemeri Dominion as He despises The Thalmor and all who support them, sentencing anyone who allies with them to death. Although he didn't care about high elves durning his rule over cyrodiil , he was grew a great bitterness towards them when the thalmor and their high elf armies drove him out of cyrodiil after he lost the great war and signed the good for nothing white gold concordat. His intolerance of all high elves meant that not even the few high elves who didn't support the thalmor were no longer safe from The Kings Wrath, and even though The King's aim is to be a just ruler, his war against the thalmor and all who support them has often been brutal. He would punish any member of his empire thought to be allied with the thalmor. As a stern and demanding leader he only shows his love for the empire by ordering his soldiers to Kill any Thalmor soldier on sight and to grant them no mercy. He believes in Peace,* *Justice and the glory of Order, and rumors among his* *People* *claim that he plots against the Thalmor to* *Eventually Defeat them,* *re-take the Imperial City, The Imperial Palace, The Ruby throne as well as Cyrodiil itself,* *and then invade the Summerset isles to Destroy the Aldemeri Dominion. True or not, King Gronar Iron-Hand carries out his duties as Ruler of the empire with unresigned Honor and determination. his desire to lead a strong Empire is unquestioned, and his abilities are second to none. Since the demise of Martin Septim, King Gronar Iron-Hand has become the Ruler of the Empire and the People of Tamriel as a Whole. Disgusted by the infighting that plagues his People, he's gone to great lengths to promote peace, order, unity and Justice and While some Elder Council members of the empire may disagree with King Gronar Iron-Hand's methods, none doubt that his highest priority is the Empire's best interests."*

## Attributes

King Gronar Iron-Hand appears in The Elder Scrolls as a Mighty, Powerful and strong, but equally Noble and wise King with kind eyes. The King is very wise, and a powerful force for good, but as he's the king, He’s not a coward. He can be dangerous, and is an unconquerable enemy, but he is unquestionably good.

King Gronar Iron-Hand is the one true king of Tamriel in the 4th Era; all of its inhabitants have faith in him, and obey him absolutely. Generally, he comes to the different Provinces to aid its leaders and on important missions for external and personal peace, and to protect it from various evils. He watches over Tamriel constantly from the White Gold Tower, although he does not choose to solve all of its problems for its inhabitants. The most notable of his many loyal subjects and officials were Amaund Mottierre and General Tullius.

The Ruler of tamriel itself.

King of tamriel... and ruler of the empire. The King regins over tamriel and her people, and all of its inhabitants both love and fear him. and even though he is a nord of skyrim. and not of cyrodiilic blood, he was still able to take control of the Imperial City. and become The Empire's first King

King Gronar Iron-Hand, The Man that is Known as the King of Tamriel was brought into a world forged from violence this brutally sculpted him into the ultimate warrior and sealed his legacy as the King of the Empire, but the fires of war burned within his blood, and he anwesred its call with a victory that would lead the land of tamriel and the empire into a new golden age... Champion, King, Nord... his name,.. King Gronar Iron-Hand, The King...of Tamriel

Despite the fact that he had ruled The Empire in only 200 years and just claimed the crown, The King was shown to be truly knowledgeable in the laws of Tamriel as well as the ways of the Empire. he was also served by numerous servants: Maro as his enforcer, Falx Carius as his general, Ammaund Motierre as his servant, and the Penitus Oculatus as his Bodyguards.

and eventhough some of his actions as King may have caused Wars and Rebellions, he is still human. and as such He is still doing what he thinks is best for his Kingdom of Tamriel and her People.

a good strategist, he prefers to be Plotting his Vengeance against The Thalmor within the Stone Walls of his tower than meddle with the politics of the blue palace, which is part of the reason he does not know that erikur schemes against him. His, command, domination, and seduction spells compel anyone they strike, to obey him completely. his gold hilted imperial sword, is both an effective weapon and a means to threaten his enemies without having to speak, The King's relentless power and mastery of swordsmanship sets him apart from all others and confirms his namesake as the KING!!! Of Tamriel.

Gronar Iron-Hand, King of Tamriel, after 30 years of war, Conquests and Death, The New King sat on the ruby throne in the imperial city and the newely Crowned king of Tamriel held the Empire within his hands but in just a few short years it would all turn to dust before his waking eyes

### Ruling the Empire

When martin septim died in the Oblivion Crisis at the end of the 3rd era, King Gronar Iron-Hand took his place as Ruler of the Empire.

he quickly assembled a new legion of imperial troops, with the *White-gold tower* serving as his Seat of Power. making it known to tamriel that He had become the Empire's 1st King.

With the power of the Empire's Imperial legion at his Command, King Gronar Iron-Hand would Expand the Empire and fill the White Gold Tower with treasures beyond most men's wildest dreams, finally fulfilling his old desire of living the life of a rich royal Ruler. He surrounded himself with riches and Luxury, dressing himself in the finest attire, uniforms, robes and Armor he could get Crafted, and even replaced the hilt of his sword with one made of gold. He seemed to do this for his Imperial Advisors as well, as they all wore fine, elegant clothing, by the time of the 4th era.

### the Great war

years past, and the new king ruled peacefully from his imperial palace within cyrodiil. Trade routes went well and all seemed Peacefull until an ambassador of the newly formed group called the thalmor arrived in cyrodiil with a cart that was covered with a disturbingly wet cloth and suspicsiously had a lot of flies flying around it he then walked with the cart into the imperial palace where the newly crowned King Gronar iron-Hand sat on the ruby throne two imperial soldiers drew their swords and was about to escort the stranger (unbeknownst to them the thalmor ambassador) out of the building but then King Gronar Iron-Hand saw the cart and wondered what was in it the thalmor ambassador then pulled out a long list of demands and rules he wanted the new King to make which included handing over ownership of the imperial city to the aldemeri dominion, ceeding parts of hammerfell to the dominion paying tributes to both the aldemeri dominion AND the thalmor, the disbandment of the blades and the ban of talos worship. waiting eagrly, the thalmor ambassador waited for the king's response, in which King Gronar iron-Hand denied the offer, the thalmor agent would then go on to tip the cart revealing its content and from the covered cart spilled the heads of every blade agent in valenwood, elsweyr and the summerset isles, after looking at the heads and then back at the ambassador king Gronar Iron-Hand became frusrated and ordered his imperial guards to sieze the traitor, when he tried to run two imperial archers who stood near the king's throne shot the thalmor ambassador on the spot killing him instantly, an imperial Advisor then asked the king that maybe he should have just accepted the terms Still The King would not surrender and over the years gathered armies of imperial soldiers who would fight the thalmor and their forces with stealth and cunning, it is here by all accounts that the great war of the 4th era began.

The Thalmor,. had known enemies, the nordic nations parts of Skyrim and hammerfell continued to resist the authority of altmer rule, King Gronar Iron-Hand had quiet a good political relationship with these upstart kingdoms as dutifully as a shepard tends he's flock, now he called upon them to unite under the banner of the Empire, as the war of the red ring began.

King Gronar iron-Hand's plan was not only to battle the thalmor's aldemeri forces directly but also to bring order and peace where ever he's armies went

The King's people in cyrodiil were further demoralized by rumors that the thalmor were necromancers to reanimate the broken corpses of fallen soldiers, to fight for them, the thalmor's ''operatives'' would often strike in dark of night, silently, leaving no trace and sometimes?......no bodies, eventually ruthlessness allowed them to confront King Gronar Iron-Hand, The Thalmor was strong but no match for The King of The Empire, yet for all the blows he struck against the thalmor's forces more would emerge to do battle, he fought with all he had, when he had no more left to give he prayed to talos and the divines in return for the power to slay he's enemies as a result King Gronar Iron-Hand became a spirit of vengeance and rained hell down on the dominion and its people weilding he's great golden imperial sword he faced the thalmor and the armies and SLEW! them all over a 1000 in a single day. Lord Naarifiin and a squad of thalmor soldiers attacked him relentlessly determend to astablish full altmer supremacy, The Battles raged for nearly 4 years after the great war had begun. the rumors of the thalmor summoning daedra, and reanimating dead soldirs once thought to be fear-mongering proved to be truth, in their rage and anger and determination to Crush King Gronar iron-Hand The Thalmor Brazenly sent waves of Liches, Vampires and Walking Corpses upon the forces of King Gronar Iron-Hand, so Terrible was Their Wrath so obscene that even the few supporters the retained soon fled in horror and revulsion

### Duel With Naarifin

As The Great War Raged on , King Gronar Iron-Hand won battles through brutal, but effective tactics. However, his pride and hunger for power grew greater with every victory. The King of The Empire vowed to continue his bloody conquests "until the glory of The Empire is known throughout the world of Tamriel", spending time with his Court only when he was able to return to Cyrodii. King Gronar Iron-Hand and his army finally met their match when they encountered merciless Thalmor Soldiers, led by King Gronar Iron-Hand's old enemy, Naarifin. Outnumbered and overpowered, the Imperials quickly found themselves on the losing end of the battle, with Their King himself left at the mercy of Lord Naarifin. In desperation, King Gronar Iron-Hand called out to Talos, the Nordic God of War, pledging his allegiance in exchange for victory. Talos accepted the offer, proceeding to kill Most if not all of The Aldemeri Soldiers attacking Cyrodiil, Giving King Gronar iron-Hand The Time to Slay Naarifin, and his imperial army the oppertunity to Counter Attack and eventually slay almost EVERY SIngle Thalmor soldier occupying the imperial City, Hangning the Thalmor General from the Very top of The White-gold tower as a sign of his servitude. Naarifin would later under Mysterious circumstances be Rescued by a Winged Daedra, but would be presumed Dead by The Citizens of Tamriel.

### Fall from power

near the end of the great war the thalmor tried to sieze the imperial city itself and with a last stand King Gronar Iron-Hand and his fighting men fought off the Thalmors Forces and King Gronar Iron-Hand Successfully Slew The Thalmor Soldiers that Occupied Cyrodill, ultimatley King Gronar Iron-Hand realized that if he kept fighting the thalmor's forces the Dominion would just send more and more and more elven armies and both him and his empire would be destroyed and so King Gronar Iron-Hand Officially Signed What is now known as the White Gold Concordat, Ending The Great War and Accepting The Ban of Talos Worship. King Gronar Iron-Hand would then Flee in shame with the remnants of his Army to the Snowy Peeks of skyrim where he took refuge in the stone walled Castle Dour And officially declared the city of Solitude as Skyrim Capital. He Would also Declare Solitude as the Temporary Capital of The Empire Until He had Rebuilt and was Ready to Fight Back Against The Dominion The Empire would remain in skyrim for a while, He Promoted Tullius To General and left him in-charge of the military, he then built a throne room inside the largest tower in the castle where he would rule over the empire for the time being.

### Cold war

even though the Great War had ended, The Thalmor was still a very real threat in the land of tamriel some thalmor agents are said to have even integrated them selves in to the populas, and according to some records the elves have already deemed the great war "the first war with the empire" which may indicate that another great war could occur. but behind the walls of Castle Dour The Empire was Regrouping, rebuilding and preparing for the future ahead. meanwhile as the centuries past from within his tower in Castle Dour the King Of The Empire plotted in a secret war room, ashamed for signing the white gold concordat, furious against the dominion, stripped of Half his Kingdom and fueled by anger towards the thalmor. the only place that could make him happy was taken away from him, From his Tower in Castle Dour King Gronar Iron-Hand Grew more and more angry towards the thalmor and the dominion waiting for a chance to set things right.

### Rule over Skyrim and The Skyrim Civil War

200 years had passed and King Gronar peacefully Rules over what Remains of tamriel thats still under Imperial Control with peace and prosperity, but eventually Peace was not to Last as Ulfric Stormcloak a Rouge Jarl would go on to Start a rebellion that would almost destroy The Province of Skyrim Splitting it in Half and Threatening to Turn Half of Skyrim Against The Empire. and it would all Begin when Ulfric Slew High King Torygg infront of all of Solitude and Proclaiming the Empire as "Corrupt Allies of the Thalmor" when not knowing that Infact the Empire's Ruler King Gronar Iron-Hand Was Plotting Against The Thalmor to one day Overthrow them and Take Back his Power and that he could be doing it right now as Ulfric spoke, but to Arrogant and Delusional, Ulfric would flee solitude, return to Windhelm and Begin what would be be now known as the Skyrim Civil War, and Eventually News of Ulfric's Rebellion and Threats against the Empire would Reach The King of The Empire, prompting King Gronar Iron-hand to Prepare his Troops for the Battles to Come, and to ensure the Empire's Survival. King Gronar Iron-Hand would place his one of his Best Generals Tullius in charge of the war nd would order the recruitment as many soldiers as possible as fast as possible resulting in the recruitment of farmers, mercernaries and great war veterans, and even tho it wasn't the mightiest of legions it would have to do as King Gronar iron-Hand would not rest until ulfric was dealt with , knowing that Ulfric's Victory could turn all of Skyrim against his rule and weaken the Empire and thus Tamriel itself forever. as the war would drag on Ulfric would Eventually be Finally Capture at Dark Water Crossing and Quickly Surrendered, to the legion. after recieving news of Ulfric's Capture, King Gronar Iron-Hand would not hesitate and ordered Ulfric to be brought to Helgen immedietaly to face justice for his crimes against the empire. Ulfric would arrive at helgen by prison Cart with fellow stormcloaks. King Gronar himself would also arrive to helgen to personally witness his rival be dealt with by the hands of the law with his own eyes, and after a few minor setbacks ulfric was about to be dealt with when from the skies a Dragon would fly down. and burn helgen to the ground killing almost all of King gronar's Helgen Garrison in the process. Ulfric to King Gronar's Anger and frustration, would escape durning the chaos, and return to Windhelm to Continue the War. King Gronar and General tullius would Return to Solitude to discuss the situation, leading to King Gronar eventually ordering General Tullius to look for the Jagged Crown in the Ancient Ruin of Korvanjund, The King would Eventually arrive to the Ruin himself with a Squad of Penitus Oculatus Agents and would fight through the Ruin against both stormcloaks and draugr eventually Reaching the Ancient throne room of the long Gone King Borgas, he would defeat the Reanimated Remains of the Old King in Battle and Claim the Crown and would return to Castle Dour now with the Crown in his Possession, a few Days Later he would declare that "the time had come to finally defeat ulfric" and to make him pay for all the atrocoties he had commied against the empire and so Kign Gronar would Send out Soldiers and spies to Take Back Forts all across skyrim whom he feared Ulfric had Conquered beforehand even paretaking in some of the Battles himself, andd so he Conquered Fort after Fort Hold after Hold until he eventually reached Windhelm, Wasting no oppertunity to finally battle ulfric himself and defeat the rouge jarl once and for all, he ordered General Tullius to Prepar for the Attack o Windhelm as fast as Possible. Knowing the Greatest Battle of the Civil War was at Hand.

## Personality and traits

King Gronar Iron-Hand, The Ruler of Tamriel, can be both handsome and dangerous. but when not attending public events or leading his forces into battle against the thalmor in the frontlines of the Great War or against ulfric's forces in his Civil war with the stormcloaks. he spent much of his time alone in his Castle in Solitude, He Lived Like a King There, having access to finest foods, and other pleasures one might expect at such a large Castle, he also collected many pieces of ancient artifacts such as art and statues, with most of them being artifacts from the ancient nordic burial tombs his minions aquired From Various Patols Throughout Skyrim, he was also known to be a man of Culture and one who had a keen taste for wine, with Cyrodiilic Brandy apperantly being his favorite of the bunch. As The Leader of The Empire and The Ruler of Tamriel, King Gronar Iron-Hand attended many ceremonial Banquets where he met with other jarls from skyrim, counts from cyrodiil and nobles from the imperial city, he was charming in conversations, befriending many of those he came into contact with. he gave speeches at these parties as well, boosting the moral of his supporters, and at times even accepting awards presented to him by his people. he was said to be quite a fair ruler to the citizens of Tamriel giving emeralds to the poor, purses of coin to homeless children, arresting bullies, putting abusive parents in jail and executing child abusers, hes also to have said at a speech once that he promised his people that one day they will be powerful enough to overthrow the thalmor and bring permanent order to the Land of Tamriel but when going on the battlefield he is a far different person, in battle This skillful warrior is driven by his thirst for power and riches. Though he commands a strong army, he is not afraid to get his own hands dirty should circumstances demand it which is why he's famous for his courage and ferocity in a fight, and known on the battlefield as a savage and destructive force, he also is known for cutting down opponent after opponent, be it stormcloak, thalmor, or forsworn, but he is mostly known for not showing any mercy to his enemies, preffering to kill them instead of arresting them. he also secretly plotting his revenge against the aldemeri dominion behind the Thalmor's Backs, hoping to one day be able to surpass and overthrow the Elves.

near the end King Gronar Iron-Hand became almost obsessed with this task, Going out of his way, to try and launch a Massive attack on the summerset isles, Killing thousands of high elves out of anger for losing the great war. The other thing King Gronar Iron-Hand enjoyed to do in his own time was to search for the thalmor ambassador elenwen so he could kill her for him it was personal and he wanted the pleasure of killing the thalmor bitch himself. once he became the emperor's champion and later The King of Tamriel, his tastes in entertainement changed quite a bit instead of playing with toys and buying candy at the market. King Gronar Iron-Hand enjoyed watching matches of imperial soldiers fighting to the death in the arena frequently attending the famous arena in The imperial city itself, and he owned his own private viewing champer within the building. he also found himself appreciating fine artwork and statues (mostly of nordic culture) , going out of his way to surround his castles and apartments with antique art and statues. once he arose to The Title of King, he found his first few years as Ruler of Tamriel to be extremely busy. the few moments of time he had for himself, King Gronar Iron-Hand Spent most of the time Admiring all the Gold in his Treasury, watching his court dancers and Hosting Parties in his honor within his Throne Room he Also Spent a ton of time training secret spies and assasins like the Penitus Oculatus to look after his subordinates whom he feared could betray him, this was done for pretty much everyone including his own advisor amaund motierre and yes even General Tullius. Researching all the secrets of the Nine divines and obtaining both aedric AND Daedric Artifacts from Ancient Aedric and Daedric temples and shrine's was another activity he did outside of his formal work as King of The Empire. one of the things he spent much of his time studying was trying to learn the secret to enter the realms of oblivion and defeat the Daedric Lords. he owned many palaces, Castles and resorts across multiple provinces from fort Frostmoth on Solstheim to an unknown secret Castle in Skyrim. his most famous palace was the one in cyrodiil which lay in the Center of all of Tamriel and was the largest building in the entire continent. King Gronar Iron-Hand was known for Capturing Enemies like Thalmor soldiers, forsworn warriors and stormcloak supporters, having an entire dungeon for that sole purpose. in his alone time he often used his wealth and power he possesed as king to purchase ancient books, texts and scrolls on tamriel's lore, he read those texts whlie secretly plotting his revenge against the thalmor, it was from these books that he realized how he was going to achieve the goals he so craved. he kept his knowledge of tamriel a complete secret even from his own empire.

once he had created the entire structure of his empire and appointed the appropriate jarls and Elder Council Members to rule on his behalf he began to reduce his direct impact on the empire, and began doing the things he mostly did in his free time, such as flirting with elisif, watching matches in the arena and plotting against the thalmor etc... rather than rule.

although King Gronar Iron-Hand Craved Power once throughout his entire life, once he finally got it and had no serious opposition against he's rule, he kind of got bored, there was nothing super thrilling of just sitting on a thorne (though mostly enjoyed it) and watching he's empire expand and build itself up, he liked being in a war, being right there in the moment where history was being made. a natural tick in him which had been there within him ever since he's young teenage years durning he's days as a solsier in the legion to the very moment upto he's duel with ulfric. where he would put himself in once again in the front lines of Skyrim's Civil War durning the Battle of Windhelm, just so that he witness the destruction of the Stormcloak Rebellion with his very own eyes and also to be the one who slew ulfric stormcloak.

As king, King Gronar Iron-Hand preferred to personally lead his Imperial troops on the battlefield,and quite enjoyed the feeling of being confident and in control. He was also a good strategist who was able to plan successful conquests. although he was absolutely confident in his Leadership skills and did not believe that he could be out-manipulated by anyone, not even by The Thalmor., he would be targeted by thalmor Assassins on numerous occassions, but to the Elves anger the king Managed to survive all attempts on his life due to having imperial solders guarding him at all times. King Gronar Iron-Hand hated betrayal. He spent years trying to avenge his Loss of Cyrodiil to The Thalmor, but once he Defeated The Thalmor and Ariel Sethius Conquered Cyrodiil, He once again had an enemy he was desparate to defeat. in Battle he displayed courage and benevolence, willingly fighting to defend his troops, his Homeland, his Empire, his Kingdom as well as his Country, On his hands he wore gold rings with different stones; some royal blue and some red. He also wore a robe to show his high social standing as the King of the Empire of tamriel.
