    History: Age 6: Demetrius was found wandering in the Alik’r desert. He was taken in by the Alik’r Coterie and trained in the arts of guerilla warfare and the way of the sword. The Coterie also taught him how to make basic poisons, hunt, ride horseback, extract poison from scorpions and skin animals.

    Age 12: Demetrius was found to have an affinity for magick. In a “friendly competition against Kematu, Demetrius suddenly manipulated the wind and lifted Kematu several feet up in the air and smashed him hard into the ground. He has since honed his magickal abilities and uses them to further his swordsmanship.

    Age 15: Demetrius had surpassed Kematu in physical and mental strength and ability, because of this he was sent to High Rock in service of a high standing nobleman and politician, Arvin, to expand the Coteries influence. In Arvins service he learned how to act and behave with the elite, and the harsh politics of High Rock taught Demetrius he needed to be cold and calculating to be able to succeed. Arvin taught Demetrius how to read.

    Age 17: Arvin had become a mentor to Demetrius, and he performed his first “aggressive negotiation” (read: assassination) for Arvin. This side of politics was one he enjoyed immensely, and he started to take on assassination jobs on the side with the agenda of helping Arvins cause and for gold.

    Age 20: Arvin found out about Demetrius’ extracurricular activities. Pleased with his initiative, Arvin sent Demetrius on more negotiations, both aggressive and not. Demetrius was taught in the art of stealing the right items and extortion and how to manipulate people to give him what he want, which he also enjoyed.

    Age 22: Demetrius killed Arvin to take his place in politics, he was however seen. He fled the city and headed for the Royal Court of Hammerfell to make use of his skills. He was hired by Anora, a staunch opponent of the Empire.

    Age 25: Demetrius and Anora fell in love and he cut all ties to the Alik’r Coterie.

    Age 26: Anora was murdered by Kematu, Demetrius’ long standing rival in the Coterie, because of Demetrius’ betrayal. Demetrius continued Anoras political agenda against the Empire (using very aggressive methods) whilst simultaneously searching for Kematu.

    Age 27: Demetrius found out Kematu was on a mission in Skyrim. Demetrius headed to Skyrim within the week, as this was an opportunity to both weaken the Empire and kill Kematu. (He does not get caught at the border). He decides to wear common Redguard clothes to not attract attention to his true self, and achieve both goals with aggressive methods.
