Commander Maro

Commander Maro is a male Imperial and the leader of the Emperor's special security force Penitus Oculatus. He is incharge of protecting the Emperor during his visit Skyrim. He is the father of Gaius Maro.

During the Dark Brotherhood questline, after the death of the Emperor's cousin Vittoria Vici during the quest Bound Until Death, Emperor Titus Mede II's visit to Skyrim becomes almost apparent. As the Emperor's visit approaches, he assigns his son, Gaius Maro, to verify the security of the major holds. His son however meets his demise in the hands of the Listener. Later, he intercepts the Listener after he/she successfully assassinates a decoy of the Emperor after the Listener was betrayed by Astrid. He therefore leads the Penitus Oculatus to destroy the Dark Brotherhood Sanctuary near Falkreath.

Alternatively if the Dragonborn chooses to destroy the Drrk Brotherhood, Commander Maro will provide the player the pass phrase for the Falkreath Sanctuary.
