Defining moment:
The Legacy and the Threat
Faraloce's father, Zaroff, was a fierce and ambitious warrior and hunter who sought to harness the ancient power believed to lie within the dragonborn bloodline. Zaroff believed that Faraloce’s latent powers could unlock an ancient and potent magic tied to the tattoos etched into the ruined settlement’s stone.

When Faraloce reached adulthood, Zaroff, driven by his ambition and frustration, ventured to the tundra and unlock the power he believed was rightfully his. Despite the power Faraloce had shown in his training, he had never been able to access the ancient magic Zaroff sought.

He only ever view him as a tool, something to help him gain status and with his time and energy he turned Faraloce into a force to be reckoned with among all and if he could not have that power that no one could. Zaroff threatend the life of his wife, Elilanga, the one who Faraloce cared for most and that if he did not summon his power he would kill her. Once again, the power would not arrive and Zaroff made a decision, if words could not motivate his son to unleash his power, than actions would.
