Aamos Mathius

Kaesar, Seventeen, 4 years

Aamos Mathius was born in Morthal to Baldur and Leainna Mathius. The Mathius Family are one of the oldest family in Morthal and have always been mage-oriented, sending out powerful battlemages. Thus while magic have always surrounded the Mathius Family, they don't forgot their nordic heritage. Thus give birth to warriors both train in sword and magic, battlemages. Aamos lived a few miles deep in the marshes but close enough to remain part of the close-knitted community at Mathius Manor. As one of the oldest family in Hjaalmarch, they is also one of the richest, if not the richest. Mathius Manor is both a mage and warrior paradise, with bountiful of plants for alchemy and areas for enchanting, spell training, archery and sword training. The manor reveal how close magic is to the Mathius Family and how ever Mathius was a Battlemage. Aamos had a normal childhood, with the exception of more septims then the average citizens. Due to being born from two powerful battlemages, Aamos was equally powerful at a young age that grow stronger as he age. He was taught by his mother and father in everything they know, from destruction magic to swordsmanship to created a effective Mathius Battlemage. He have a noble education that not only gave him greater knowledge of Skyrim but also Tamriel and the surrounding continents. At the age of seventeen he left to the College of Winterhold in Winterhold Hold for further training by then his mother return to her duties in the Mathius household while his father take the place as the Jarl's steward ensuring his family place in Hjaalmarch’s governance. When he arrival at the College he was immediately taken on as a apprentice by just hearing his last name, revealing his family fame with mage circles as famed battlemages. Due to being train by his parents, Aamos was years ahead of his fellow apprentices thus rank up the ladder quickly. Aamos have lead many expeditions to Nordic and dwaven ruins while also expanding the College library. It was twenty-one that he was notice of the death of his father, Aamos immediately left to Morthal to be at the funereal. While sadden at the death of his parent, he learnt at a young age of the eventuality of death and therefore acknowledge his descent to Sovngarde. His mother was in despair at the lost of her soul mate of thirty years and thus bury herself in a depression. Aamos took his father’s position of steward to keep a closer eye on her mother. Unfortunately, the reigning Jarl was old and without a heir and therefore gave more of his duties to Aamos. It wasn't long before Aamos was the Jarl in all but name. It was at age twenty-three that his mother passed over and the entire Mathius fortune was given to him. It was at twenty-five that the reigning Jarl meet his fate to death that was calling him. Without heirs and thanes, Aamos was the highest authority and with approval from the Hold he took over as Jarl. The transaction wasn't difficult as he was handling the duties of Jarl as steward before. When the Skyrim Civil War broke out, Aamos immediately declare Hjaalmarch neutrality. To him who is Skyrim High King or if Skyrim is part of the Mede Empire or not doesn’t matter much to him. Only Hjaamarch is of importance no matter what. Personality: Aamos Mathius is, without a doubt, an exceedingly difficult man to understand. A keen observer of details, his capacity for fairness is matched only by his determination to safeguard Morthal and Hjaalmarch. His "whatever is necessary" attitude means he is willing to go to any lengths to ensure his goals - and those of Morthal- come to fruition. A practical man that subscribes to Machiavellian ethics, he's quick to rationalize issues detrimental to Hjaalmarch interests if there's a very compelling reason to do so. Throughout his life he has been known for being cold and shrewd in his political dealings. Never one to pass up an opportunity, he is ruthless in matters of politics. Despite this, or perhaps because of it, he is well-known and even respected in Skyrim.

Hello! I'm sorry for the delay getting back to you, busy weekend x.x Good application so far, but there's a few things I would like to address. While some nords are more magically inclined, it's more realistic that one so magically talented would be a race such as an elf or a breton, whereas Nords are usually more weary of magic and those who wield it. For this reason, I would like to ask that if you have to have your nord wield magic, it be less powerful and a good explanation as to why a family of nords would allow their son to be trained in magic. It also isn't quite logical to have nords be court wizards, as simply put, it isn't their specialty.

Thanks ^_^

I rewrote his history is that his family give birth to Battlemages and knowledgeable in both swordsmanship and magic. I also downgrade his magic to the standard of a educated nord mage.

It all still seems somewhat imbalanced and forced. While those changes were made, a few issues that Taiya brought up still seem to be present in the app, albiet not as blatant or explained away with the whole "battlemages" idea. A liiiiiittle more touching up, with better explanations of the extent of his power and the source of his power in the history, would be great.
