Character Bio: Ilumus was an odd child who found pleasure in making things suffer, his parents rarely took him outside with them and spent more time locking him in the house, every chance he had he'd sneak out of the house, and into the forest with his father's dagger. He'd sneak up behind a dear or a rat and slash it's legs preventing it from running away, stab it a good two or three times before leaving it there to die. His brother who worked for the guard hated bailing him out of prison every time he killed a neighbors pet, and they eventually found Ilumus some "help".
Day's turned into weeks, which turned into months, the help wasn't working, but he played along. He acted nice and killed not a thing, and the more he acted the more he felt the urge to hurt something.
One day disobeying his father's warnings he swam in the nearby lake only to be attacked by a slaughterfish panicking he thought his life was over, but he was saved by an Argonian who had been keeping an eye on him. Once the creature was killed the Argonian pulled him to shore and told him "little boys shouldn't be swimming in the lake" Ilumus was still shaken from the attack and didn't say anything, the Argonian carried him back to his house and told his father what happened
While Ilumus was in his room staring at the ceiling, he heard the door crash open, his parents scream. Ilumus rushed down to see what happened, the sight horrified him but in an odd way, made him want to smile, his parent's corpses on the ground his brother fighting the attackers with his remaining energy. All Ilumus could see in the group of attackers were Redguards, Nords, and Bretons, and he realized it wasn't just his house being attacked, it was his whole little village.
Ilumus rushed upstairs to his father's room, grabbed his dagger, opened the window, and climbed out. He hit the ground, tumbling and managing not to hurt himself, he sprinted through the city, too short for any one to notice. He went to find the Argonian who had saved him and this sight was truly shocking for him, the Argonian's family dead, and him tied to see the work, slowly being tortured.
Ilumus had to do something to help, the Argonian carelessly helped him when he needed it. Ilumus never had help from any one because every one judged him to be possessed or evil. "it's just one Dunmer" he told himself before sneaking up behind the Dunmer before she could deliver the final attack and stabbing her first in the back of her knee, then beneath her sword arm's armpit then finally holding her head in place he slashed her throat as if he had practiced such attack for a long time.
After Ilumus freed the Argonian he helped sneak him out of the village, but once they were out of harms way and some where safe the Argonian collapsed unable to move another step, he rolls onto his back and looks at Ilumus. "come on, where close to the next village, we'll get you some medicine and some healers over there" Ilumus said trying to help him back up but the Argonian refused the help and took his hand "I am done for...leave to Cheydinhal... enter the abandoned house... no matter how dark the basement seems... travel all the way down... there you will find a door... when you get to it, it will ask you a question... the answer is... Sanguine, my brother... it will grant you access inside... there... you will give them my ring... there... you will... be... safe" the Argonian died, his hand slipped from Ilumus's leaving a key and a ring in Ilumus's hand.
Ilumus ran tirelessly all the way to Cheydinhal, went to the abandoned house, unlocked the door, went to the basement all the way to the dark red door, he looked at the door and moved up to get a closer look at the markings and heard a voice say "What is the color of the night?" Ilumus slowly looked up to the red hand on it, recognizing the symbol from a story book "Sanguine... my brother" the door slid open and he walked in holding the ring in his hand "welcome home brother" he heard the voice say as the door closed shut behind him.
Years had gone by, Ilumus had trained under the Dark Brotherhood for the majority of his life, he owed everything to them, they were his family, a family that actually understood him and loved him for who he was, a family... he could finally love back.
