Domihaus the Bloody-Horned was a minotaur warlord who forged an alliance with the Dreadhorn clan, a tribe of Reachmen descended from the Keptu people. Together, he and the reverent Reachmen planned to wrest control of the clan's ancestral lands in Falkreath Hold from the Nords.[1]

Gherig Bullblood, the patriarch of the Dreadhorn clan, believed Domihaus was a favored champion of the clan's patron deity, Hircine.[2] Although his lineage is unknown, Domihaus supposedly possessed a pedigree of some significance, claiming that his line was "unbroken".[3][nb 1] Domihaus had a strong connection to the land, and wielded powerful destruction and conjuration magic. He shaped the earth below his hooves and summoned atronachs and intense blasts of fire in his conquest.[4] He also possessed the ability to manifest flaming wings.[5]

Circa 2E 582 the Undaunted confronted Domihaus at the jarl's manor at Falkreath after he killed Jarl Hjurgol Skjoralmor, and ultimately defeated him. His severed head was taken as a trophy.[6]

Notes[edit]

  • ^  Some scholars believe that all minotaurs are descended from Emperor Belharza the Man-Bull, son of Morihaus.[7] It is therefore possible that Domihaus' claim to an unbroken line refers to his direct relation to these mythical figures and, if true, it would make him the last known direct descendant of Empress Alessia, and therefore a Dragonborn.
