General Tullius

"""'The Legion's always been here. Without us to keep order, the provinces would fall into barbarism and lawlessness. Especially Skyrim.'""~General Tulliius, 4E 201"General Servius Tullius is the current Royal General of the Imperial Legion, currently leading in the Mede Dynasty. He resides in the Royal Castle Dour.

Background
Tullius is an Imperial originally from Cyrodiil, who has been sent to Skyrim by Emperor Titus Mede II to quell the uprising of the Stormcloaks.

Early Years
Servius Tullius was born in the Imperial City, and at the age of merely 16 joined the Imperial Legion with his close friend, Ulfric Stormcloak. Tullius became very close with the General, Caesar. Caesar was Tullius mentor, and Ulfric developed jealousy over this. Tullius soon proved to be an amazing combatant, and ranked up to Quaestor by age 18. During a Thalmor attack, General Tullius saved the life of the General. Caesar was amazed by his protege's prowness and fearlessness, and bestowed upon him the rank of Legatus, at age 20. It was at this time that Titus Mede II ascended to the throne, as the new Emperor of Tamriel.

Tensions Arise
During 4E 170, Tullius, aged 22, led an armada to investigate a mysterious distress signal off the coast of Anvil. The men discovered hundreds of dead Imperial Soldiers and Imperial Citizens. Tullius investigated, but found only a note on one of the corpses. The note was a deceleration of war, by an unknown source.

The note was immediately sent off to the Emperor, and it was revealed that this was the handiwork of a not very payed attention to organization, the Third Aldmeri Dominion. The Empire prepared for a small fight, however, they were not prepared for what was about to happen.

4E 171
After Titus II rejected an ultimatum to make massive concessions to the Thalmor, Aldmeri armies invaded all of Tamriel. An army led by Thalmor general Lord Naarifin emerged from hidden camps in northern Elsweyr and assaults southern Cyrodiil, flanking Imperial defenses along the Valenwood border. Leyawiin fell to the invaders, and Bravil was surrounded and besieged. Simultaneously, an army under Lady Arannelya had crossed western Cyrodiil, bypassing Anvil and Kvatch and entering Hammerfell. This army was joined by smaller forces landing on Hammerfell's coast. Imperial troops were forced into retreat across the Alik'r Desert.
 * The Empire was now a shadow of its former glory. Valenwood and Elsweyr had been ceded to the Thalmor, Black Marsh has been lost to Imperial rule since the Oblivion Crisis, Morrowind has yet to fully recover from the eruption of Red Mountain, and Hammerfell was plagued by infighting between the Crown and Forebear factions. Only High Rock, Cyrodiil, and Skyrim remained prosperous and peaceful.

Legate Tullius and General Caesar were safe from the war in The Kingdom of the Empire, in Capital Empire city of Rome.
