  • The future Emperor Pelagius II meets his future wife, the princess of Camlorn. Together, they purportedly defeat a werewolf who was terrorizing her land.[11]
3E 64 — Emperor Uriel I dies, Emperor Uriel II is crowned
  • Emperor Uriel I dies and the kingdom is taken over by his son, Emperor Uriel II, the Fifth Emperor. Tragically, the rule of Uriel II is cursed with blights, plagues, and insurrections. The tenderheartedness inherited from his father does not serve the land well, and little justice is done.[4][5][10]
3E 67Potema, future Queen of Solitude, is born
  • Born the second of four children, and the only daughter, to Pelagius Septim II, Potema becomes better known later as the Wolf Queen.[12]

3E 82 — Emperor Uriel II dies, Emperor Pelagius II is crowned

  • Emperor Pelagius II dies and his son, Antiochus, inherits the kingdom. His reign is rife with civil wars, surpassing even that of his grandfather, Uriel II.[5][10][11][12]

Second Century[edit]

3E 104 — Princess Kintyra is born
3E 105Opusculus Lamae Bal ta Mezzamortie is translated
3E 109 — Debauchery in the Imperial City
  • Ten years into his reign, the obese and lecherous Emperor Antiochus has done little to impress his subjects besides the unquenchable hedonism he exhibits.[11]
3E 110War of the Isle
3E 111Knights of the Nine are founded
3E 114 — Empress Kintyra Septim II reportedly dies
  • Some sources later erroneously assert that Empress Kintyra is slain after being captured by Uriel III. In truth, she was not even Empress yet at this time, and doesn't die until 3E 123 (23rd of Frostfall, now named the day of Broken Diamonds).[5][12][14]
3E 119Pelagius III is born
3E 120 — Emperor Antiochus dies, Empress Kintyra Septim II is crowned
3E 121Uriel III is proclaimed Emperor
  • The Imperial City itself is taken over in only a fortnight, as two other attacks draw away Imperial forces. Uriel III is proclaimed Emperor of Tamriel. He abandons his father's surname of Mantiarco and takes the Septim name. Empress Kintyra Septim II is taken captive in High Rock as Tamriel takes sides between Uriel III and his uncles.[4][5]
3E 121War of the Red Diamond
3E 123, 23rd of Frost Fall — Empress Kintyra Septim II dies in her cell
  • Although reported to have died in 3E 114, the captive Empress Kintyra dies in secret in her cell. The 23rd of Frostfall is later named the day of Broken Diamond in her memory.[5][14]
3E 127 — Emperor Uriel III dies, Emperor Cephorus I is crowned
  • Uriel III is captured at the Battle of Ichidag in Hammerfell. En route to his trial in the Imperial City, a mob overtakes his carriage and burns him alive within it. His captor and uncle continues on to the Imperial City, and by common acclaim becomes Emperor Cephorus I. Cephorus' reign is marked by nothing but war. The Empire acquiesces to demands for greater autonomy from the nobility of all the outlying provinces except Elsweyr. It takes Cephorus an additional ten years of constant warfare to defeat his sister Potema.[5][11]
3E 131Knights of the Nine are dissolved
3E 133Destri Melarg dies
  • Destri Melarg, famed Redguard historian and translator, dies at the age of 113, leaving numerous unfinished histories and untranslated verse.[9]
3E 137Potema, Queen of Solitude, dies
  • The so-called Wolf Queen of Solitude dies during the siege of her castle.[4][11][12]
3E 139 — Sir Casimir loses the Gauntlets of the Crusader
  • After the knight kills a beggar in the Chapel of Stendarr in Chorrol, the gauntlets slip off his hands and lie immovable on the floor of the chapel, waiting for a new champion.[13]
3E 140 — Emperor Cephorus I dies, Emperor Magnus is crowned
  • Cephorus never had the time to marry, so it is his brother, the fourth child of Pelagius II, who assumes the throne. The Emperor Magnus is elderly, and the business of punishing the traitorous kings of the War of the Red Diamond drains much of his health.[4][11]
3E 141 — King Pelagius of Solitude marries Duchess Katariah of Vvardenfell
  • The future Emperor of Tamriel is recorded as "occasionally eccentric" in the Imperial Annals. He marries the Duchess on the orders of his father, Emperor Magnus.[11][15]
3E 145, 8th of Second Seed — Emperor Magnus dies, Emperor Pelagius III is crowned
  • Pelagius leaves the throne of Solitude to his sister Jolethe. Almost from the start, Pelagius III, sometimes called Pelagius the Mad, becomes noted for his eccentric behavior. He embarrasses dignitaries, offends his vassal kings, and, on one occasion, marks the end of a grand ball by attempting to hang himself.[11][15]
3E 150 — Last sighting of Sir Amiel Lannus
ca. 3E 150Cassynder Septim is born
  • The future Emperor Cassynder is born to Emperor Pelagius III and Empress Regent Katariah.[15] Cassynder is conceived after his father was committed to an asylum.[15]
3E 153, 2nd of Suns Dawn — Emperor Pelagius III dies, Empress Katariah is crowned
  • After being committed to an asylum due to his madness, on a warm night after a brief fever, the 34-year-old Emperor Pelagius III dies in his cell at the Temple of Kynareth, on the Isle of Betony. Katariah, Duchess of Vvardenfell and Empress Regent following the commitment of her husband, formally becomes the controversial new Empress. Katariah's forty-six year reign is later remembered one of the most glorious in Tamriel's history (assertions to the contrary being dismissed as racist). Katariah travels extensively throughout the Empire, as no Emperor had since Tiber's day. She repairs much of the damage that broken alliances and bungled diplomacy had created. The people of Tamriel come to love their Empress, though many nobles are not as fond.[4][15]
3E 195Rangidil Ketil dies

Third Century[edit]

3E 200 — Empress Katariah dies, Emperor Cassynder is crowned
  • Katariah's death in a minor skirmish in Black Marsh later becomes a favorite topic of conspiracy-minded historians. It later comes to light that a disenfranchised branch of the Septim family is involved. When Cassynder assumes the throne at the death of his mother, he is already middle-aged and in poor health.[5][4][15][nb 5]
3E 202 — Emperor Cassynder dies, Emperor Uriel IV is crowned
  • Cassynder dies after a two-year reign. Uriel Lariat, Cassynder's half-brother and the child of Katariah I and her Imperial consort, abdicates the throne of Wayrest to reign as Emperor Uriel IV. Legally, he was Uriel Septim IV: Cassynder had adopted him into the family when he had become King of Wayrest. Nevertheless, to many of the people of Tamriel, Uriel IV is a bastard child of Katariah. Uriel does not possess the dynamism of his mother, and his long forty-three year reign becomes a hotbed of sedition.[4][5]
3E 213Song of the Askelde Men published
3E 247 — Emperor Uriel IV dies, Emperor Cephorus II is crowned
  • The Elder Council's last victory over Uriel IV is posthumous: they vote to disinherit Andorak, Uriel IV's son. They also vote to coronate a cousin more closely related to the original Septim line as Emperor Cephorus II. Cephorus, formerly a Nordic king, battles those loyal to Andorak for nine years. The Council controversially grants Andorak the High Rock kingdom of Shornhelm to end the war.[4][5]
3E 249Camoran Usurper invades
  • During the reign of Cephorus II, the Camoran Usurper leads an army of daedra and undead warriors on a rampage through Valenwood, conquering the whole province in two years, then turns to Hammerfell. Cephorus II sends more and more mercenaries into Hammerfell to stop the Usurper's northward march, but they are bribed, turned into undead, or slaughtered. Animosity grows against the seemingly ineffective Empire.[4][5]
3E 253Nightmare Host controls Dwynnen
3E 266 — Lord of Reich Gradkeep (Anticlere) dies
  • The Lord falls deathly ill and dies later in the year. This was one of the reasons why the resistance to the Usurper was so slow to develop in High Rock, who only become fully aware of the Usurper's conquests this year. Preparations would not begin until a year later.[17]
3E 267Camoran Usurper is defeated
3E 268 — Emperor Uriel V is crowned
  • Uriel V changes the perception of a weak Empire by embarking on a series of invasions almost from the moment he takes the throne.[4][20]

  • After being trapped in a cavern for over twenty years, Torradan ap Dugal, Lord Captain of the Red Sabre, dies.[21]
3E 288, 23rd of Rain's Hand — Emperor Uriel V invades Akavir
  • Uriel V sets sail with the largest fleet assembled in recorded history to invade the continent of Akavir. They arrive in Tsaesci six weeks later.[4][5][20]
3E 289, 5th of Sun's Dawn — Foiled assassination of Emperor Uriel V
3E 290 — Emperor Uriel V dies, Emperor Uriel VI is crowned
  • Uriel V is killed in Akavir on the battlefield of Ionith. His five-year-old son becomes Emperor Uriel Septim VI. The consort Thonica, as Uriel VI's mother, is given a restricted Regency until Uriel VI reaches the age of majority. The Elder Council retains the real power, as they had since the days of Katariah.[4][20]

3E 414Vvardenfell is opened for settlement
  • Previously a preserve administrated by the Tribunal Temple since the Treaty of the Armistice, Vvardenfell was largely uninhabited and undeveloped. Vvardenfell is reorganized as an Imperial Provincial District after King Llethan of Morrowind revokes the centuries-old Temple ban on trade and settlement. A flood of Imperial colonists and the Great Houses came to Vvardenfell. This also opens up exploitation of valuable resources like malachite and ebony.[37][38]

  • It is later believed that the Sixth House has at least a small cell in every town in Vvardenfell, with larger operations concealed in remote dungeons.[32]

3E 417 — The Tribunal lose Kagrenac's Tools
  • Almalexia and Sotha Sil lose the artifacts Keening and Sunder to the minions of Dagoth Ur during a battle at Red Mountain. Vivec rescues them, but fails to recover the artifacts.

They grow weaker without access to the Heart of Lorkhan, and because of resources required to support the Ghostfence. The inner circle of the Temple priesthood begin to suspect the Tribunes have suffered seriously from wounds and demoralization in the wake of reverses at Red Mountain, but do not recognize the scale of the problem.[32]
3E 421 — The Levitation Act is passed.
3E 421Greywyn Blenwyth founds the Crimson Scars.
  • Greywyn, a member of the Dark Brotherhood, believes that Sithis has ordered him to remove all non-vampires from the Dark Brotherhood. To achieve this goal, Greywyn founds the Crimson Scars. The Crimson Scars are later killed by the Black Hand upon the discovery of Greywyn's plot.[5][40]
