Thules the Gibbering was a Nibenese witch-warrior who assumed control of the weakened Empire at some point during the Stormcrown Interregnum in the early Fourth Era.[1]:96

Thules was not a well-liked ruler, and he was known for having various perversions.[1]:96 Hierem, who came from an old and well-connected Nibenese family, served as a minister to Thules.[1]:96 Circa 4E 22, the Colovian warlord Titus Mede captured the Imperial City with a force of less than a thousand men, and he deposed Thules.[1]:96[2]:109[3] Since Thules was Nibenese, the Elder Council favored him over Titus Mede, whom they viewed as a Colovian usurper.[1]:96 After Thules' deposition, the Elder Council was convinced to accept Titus Mede as a liberator rather than a conqueror, and he was crowned Emperor of Tamriel.[1]:96[3]
