Braig the Bloody was a Reachman warrior and a prominent member of the Soldiers of the Void.[1]:34, 41 He was one of the two major agents working for the Bosmer mage Deslandra in the Skyrim region, alongside the Pale Fingers. However, their responsibilities and the nature of their collaboration differed significantly.[2]:60 Notably intimidating, he was described as a formidable and feared man, recognized for his strength and prowess. He carried out several of Deslandra's objectives, while also being responsible for forcibly converting numerous foreign individuals into Briarheart warriors. Once transformed, he commanded and controlled them with unwavering authority.[2]:60
HistoryEdit
MorrowindEdit
At some point circa 2E 582, Braig was among the Soldiers of the Void,[1]:34, 41 a faction seeking to destabilize the Pact in order to operate more freely in Skyrim.[1]:33 An Altmer member of the Soldiers of the Void named Kelkemmemon posed as an emissary for the Eyes of the Queen,[1]:33 deceiving a new spy within the organization into carrying out false flag operations in Morrowind. These operations involved sabotaging the food supplies of the Daggerfall Covenant and the Ebonheart Pact troops stationed at Davon's Watch.[1]:23,28 Razum-dar eventually caught wind of this plan and intervened, forcing the agent to undo the damage. It was soon uncovered that Kelkemmemon was working on behalf of the Soldiers of the Void.[1]:33 Braig was one of the primary instigators of the conflict. The agent tracked him down and defeated him in battle, but the wounded Reachman managed to escape, leaving behind a significant cache of magical weapons, ready to be shipped to an unknown location.[1]:34, 41
The group of the Soldiers of the Void led by Braig were working under the Deslandra, and they were looking for powerful items capable of augmenting magical items so she may utilize in completing her Void Centurion.[1]:41 The tinkered automaton would then provide the formiddable protection needed for her to complete the Great Nullification,[3]:44 which would forever sever the flow of magicka from Aetherius into Mundus, meaning magic would no longer exist.[3]:52[1]:46 Stories of Deslandra's downfall vary, with one that claims she was slain in Morrowind after Razum-dar and his companions concluded that Nchuleftingth was most likely the group's headquarters in the province.[1]:44 Deslandra in this version of events was ultimately defeated, and the Void Centurion and Deslandra were buried beneath the rubbles of the ruins.[1]:48,50
