Jayran Fenris

Jayran Fenris the Wolf-Kissed, known by some as the Wolf of Eastmarch is the chieftan of the Fenris Clan and general of the Stormcloak rebellion. He was also a member of the Dawnguard later on. Jayran supports Skyrim's independence from the Empire, which he believes has been corrupted by the Aldmeri Dominion and too weak to protect its citizens. Some describe Jayran as a hero, while others label him an opportunist.

A veteran of the Great War, Jayran's holds deep resentment of the White-Gold Concordat between the Empire and Aldmeri Dominion, particularly the ban of Talos worship. During the Markarth Incident, Ulfric Stormcloak and Jayran marched soldiers into Markarth under the pretext that this action would re-legitimize Talos worship, but was eventually detained.

Early Life
Early in life he did not live nor was raised by his parents, he was raised and grew up on a farm with two adoptive parents, his adoptive father was an old legionnaire for the Empire.

The Great War
When he was twenty years old he volunteered to join the Imperial Legion during the Great War. The Great War was the name given to the large-scale armed conflict between the Third Aldmeri Dominion and the Tamrielic Empire during the Fourth Era.

During the Great War, he fought alongside Ulfric Stormcloak and Legate Rikke; however, he was captured by the Aldmeri Dominion during the Dominion's campaign for the Imperial City.

While imprisoned, he was interrogated by Elenwen for hours but then broke free, killed several elves and saw the Imperial city occupied.

The Markarth Incident
In 4E 175, the Great War ended with the Empire signing the White-Gold Concordat, an act which banned the worship of Talos in the Empire. During the war, the Nords lost possession of the Reach due to an uprising by a group of Bretons known as Reachmen.

The nords of the Reach sought help from Ulfric Stormcloak in ousting the Reachmen invader, Jayran joined in and marched towards Markath and retook the city.

When the Imperial Legion arrived to restore the rule of law, Ulfric Stormcloak allegedly refused them entry into the city until they also agreed free worship of Talos would be allowed. With chaos supposedly running through the streets of Markarth and the reports of deaths rising every day, the Empire had no choice but to grant Ulfric and his men their worship, thus jeopardizing the peace agreement with the Aldmeri Dominion.

Eventually, the Empire rescinded the agreement due to pressure from the Aldmeri Dominion, and Jayran and his militia were expelled from the city and imprisoned shortly after with Hrolfdir's help. This betrayal left Ulfric and Jayran bitter towards the Empire and is considered to be the initial conception of the Stormcloak rebellion.

The Jagged Crown
Jayran was sent to Korvanjund along with Galmar to retrieve the Jagged Crown for Ulfric, once they reached the crypt and obtained the crown they faced several Draugr but nothing they couldn't handle.

Battle for Whiterun
The Stormcloaks have reached the city of Whiterun. Jayran Fenrs is called to assist the Stormcloaks in taking the city. While Galmar was assigned to fight back in the front gate, Jayran was assigned to make sure to charge into the city and break into the halls of Jarl Balgruuf. He killed a lot of the Imperials' that day.

Flaming catapult rocks are raining down upon the Wind and Plains districts of Whiterun, and its populace is in a state of pandemonium, running about the city seeking shelter. City Guards are heading towards the city gates to aid the defense, and the sky has turned a sickly orange from the smoking Buildings.

Jayran stood by as Balgruuf was escorted from his keep, Balgruuf commented on how dissapointed he was to see a great man such as Jayran to join up with his enemies.
