MACILE CLAN
Founded during the First Era by an Altmer Magic Archer named Hinille Macile. During that time, he took on several missions that would see him to glory in High Rock. He was a member of the Direnni Dynasty who would go on missions for the group and would be paid handsomely for his services. When the Direnni decided to immigrated to High Rock in the early First Era, Hinille went along with them to which he uses his abilities to help the Direnni take control of the land from the Nedes people who are a race of man and enslaved them. Following this, Hinille was promoted into a higher position of power in the Dynasty which from there he founded the pre-curser to the Witch Hunter known as the Les Esclavagistes Breton for “The Enslavers” or Aldmeri “Dorei-Tachi” whichever way it is translated; this group was a ruthless band that went around enslaving many Nedes for Direnni Dynasty. It wasn’t until the later Second Era that the clan moved towards the values of what the Clan is in Modern day. When Arnuel Macile took over for his grandfather, he changed the target of clan from enslaving Nedes to hunting Monsters across Tamriel. This was due to the loss of his parents at the hands of Dreugh a powerful Aquatic race. And as the years go by, the Macile Clan grew even larger with its Monster Hunter unit dividing into 4 key divisions; Monster Hunter, Dark Magic Hunter, Undead/Ghost Hunter and Dederic Hunter and from then on, the Macile Clan became known as a Witch Hunter family.
Backstory
Born to the Macile Clan; a clan of powerful witchhunters native to the Provine of High Rock. It was the year 3E 267 a time when The Wood Elf, Cameron Usurper tried to capture High Rock, parents Wilstar and Eline Macile welcomed Relnd Macile into the world near the city of Wayrest.
Raised in the fields of Gavaudon, Relnd was taught the Clan’s techniques in the art of hunting witches or evil magic users. He excelled most especially in the field of destruction magic. By the age 15 Relnd Mastered all the clan's art and began his career as a witchhunter. Relnd was seen as a prodigy and has never failed a mission he was sent on. This drew jealousy amongst his peers who sought to destroy him.
In the 3E 433 at 166 years old, Relnd was not aging. This was due to the fact that his side of the Clan is desended from a Vampire, Jeanciele Macile and unlike his father, inherited the gene in its active form thus, born as a Demi-Vampire--all the magical power, none of the weaknesses. This caused a massive de-colorization of the pigmentation of his eyes. Due to this, his enemies within the clan began to plot his downfall. In the year 4E 200 Relnd received a mission to kill witches known as Hagravens found in Markarth, Skyrim. He was stationed in Hammerfell at the time following a mission. However, as he was crossing the border, he was captured by Imperial General Tullius who had receive a report stating Relnd was gonna join the stormcloaks in the civil war. This was a lie by members of the clan and as a result, he was excommunicated from the clan.
