Consider this: "the adoring fan" is contractracted to kill the champion, the Hero of Kvatch, who has become the new Sheogorath. Trying to appear as an unsuspicious civilian he avoids fighting and in order to fortify his story of being an adoring fan obsesses over the Hero.As he sees his perfect opportunity to eliminate his target he successfully kills the Hero of Kvatch. The essence of the Hero of Kvatch, now known as Sheogorath, goes to the Shivering Isles, because the essence of a daedra who has been "killed" outside their own plane returns back to their plane. Out of anger (and madness of course) Sheogorath summons the "fan" to the Shivering Isles to be imprisoned and tortured for what he did. Over this time the "fan" became extremely insane and paranoid. He did not age much, or even at all during his time in the Isles, whether it be due to the flow of time in the Isles differering from that of Tameriel, or simply because Sheogorath didn't want him to die of natural causes. However, either the time spent in the realm of the Mad God, or his torture phisically altered the fan to the point where he appears to be an Imperial. One day Sheogorath, in a good mood, releases the "fan" back to Tameriel, several years after he was brought to the Shivering Isles. The "fan" rejoins the Dark Brotherhood under the Imperial name Cicero as to not draw attention to himself, fearing being recaptured by the fickle Sheogorath. At one point, to further blurr his past, paranoid Cicero writes several journel entries, partially based on truth, but mostly to create an alibi, shielding his past from Sheogorath, although Sheogorath likely still knows who Cicero, being an all poweful daedra, dispite Cicero telling himself he is safe from The Mad God.

,but thats just a theory, a Game Theory (yes, this line was completely necessary).
