Imperials are the natives of Cyrodiil, the central province and seat of the Empire in Tamriel. Their culture and naming conventions draw heavy inspiration from ancient Rome, with names that have a distinctly Latin flavor in both Skyrim and Oblivion.
Imperial names typically consist of a given name followed by a family name or surname. Male names often end in "-us," "-ius," or "-ian," while female names commonly end in "-a" or "-ia." Family names follow similar patterns and often denote lineage or social status.
The Imperial naming convention reflects their organized, law-oriented society. Names are formal and often carry historical significance, with many families tracing their lineage back through generations of service to the Empire.
Notable Imperial characters in the Elder Scrolls series include Emperor Uriel Septim VII, Hieronymus Lex, and Alessia Ottus, all of whom exemplify the typical Imperial naming patterns seen in both Skyrim and Oblivion.
Emperor of Tamriel at the beginning of Oblivion, whose assassination triggers the main quest.
A dedicated Imperial Watch captain in the Imperial City who is obsessed with capturing the Gray Fox.
