Editing Scrollhammer: Imperial Legion (section)

====Martin Septim====

At the turning of the Fourth Age, Emperor Uriel Septim VII was assassinated by the Mythic Dawn, who were part of a conspiracy to summon Mehrunes Dagon and lay waste to Tamriel.  While all the Emperor's known heirs had been killed, one unknown son had survived- Martin Septim.  The illegitimate son of Uriel Septim VII, he had been cast out at a young age.  As an act of kindness the Grand Master of the Blades Jauffre agreed to whisk him away to safety.

Little is know about Martin's early life, save that he used to worship Sanguine and indulge in hedonism.  Later in his years he ended up joining the Imperial Cult to atone for a horrid tragedy.  And during the late parts of the Oblivion Crisis Martin contributed greatly to defeating Mehrunes Dagon.  A kind and good natured soul, his past experience in Daedra Worship made him exceptionally useful in combating the fiends during the crisis.  Not only was he able to translate the Mysterium Xarxes, and still later assist his men fight Daedra, but also impart upon the troops knowledge of the Daedra weaknesses and strengths.  He fell in the Battle for the Imperial City- it was there he transformed into the Avatar of Akatosh, engaged the Daedra Prince in personal combat, and banished Mehrunes Dagon from the material plane.

Many of the Imperials view Martin with great reverence nearing that of Tiber Septim himself.  The hardened statue of the Avatar of Akatosh, which was once Martin, can still be seen in the Temple of the One.  There it remains crouched in a ferocious pose, looking much as it did when it struck down the Daedric Prince Mehrunes Dagon.
