During the Interregnum in 2E 582, the Baan Dar worshippers of Thormar had celebrated the twenty-fifth annual celebration of Baan Dar, where they would attempt to earn the right to partake in the Five Finger Dance. The Pariah's Hand and the Subtle Knife had pranked each other to earn the right, but an illustrious stranger only called the Vestige was able to enter the Five Finger Dance. The Dance was where the greatest party in all of Tamriel was located. And so ended the race to enter the Five Finger Dance.[2][3][4]

During the Imperial Simulacrum from 3E 389 to 3E 399, Emperor Uriel Septim VII was imprisoned along with Talin Warhaft in the Deadlands by Jagar Tharn. Tharn planned for months to capture the throne, and he was able to achieve so in the span of ten years. Tharn had a powerful weapon called the Staff of Chaos, and he split it into nine pieces and scattered them across Tamriel, the staff was the only thing keeping Uriel Septim and Warhaft in [[Oblivion] (Realm)|]. A warrior escaped his clutches and traveled all corners of Tamriel to retrieve the missing pieces. The hero was known as the Eternal Champion, and he assembled the staff and defeated Jagar Tharn at the Imperial Palace. The Eternal Champion had at one point visited the town of Thormar Keep in their quest to recover the pieces.[5]
