Belharza, also known as Belharza the Man-Bull,[1] was the second Emperor of the Alessian Empire. He was the son of Alessia and Morihaus,[1] and Morihaus was said to be a minotaur.[1][2] As a result, Belharza was sometimes referred to as a "man-bull" due to being a mix of Nede and Minotaur.[OOG 2]
History
Belharza was born sometime during the early First Era, as the firstborn child of Alessia and Morihaus.[OOG 1]
In 1E 266, after Empress Alessia was transformed into the first Cyrodilic Saint by Shezarr, he was crowned as the second Emperor of the Alessian Empire.[1] It is said that during his reign as Emperor, there were several Ayleids ruling in Malada.[3]
According to Nonus Caprenius, the Alessian Order widely persecuted minotaurs under the Empire's influence. He interprets Belharza's appearance on an ancient tablet called the Belharza Stone as referring to conflict between Belharza and the Alessian Order.[1]
Trivia
- Rare private letters between him and his mother Alessia are held in The Library of Dusk.[4]
