Naer Nivios, later known as Danat le Vesenia, was the High Thief Tenebrae in the years 356-357. During his reign the Brotherhood experienced a renewed level of publicity rarely seen, working outside of the shadows and involving themselves directly in a small-scale war against the nobility of Northside. Also notable, upon becoming Tenebrae he ousted and killed every mage that was in the Brotherhood, giving the thief organization a new mantle and purpose in Urth.

Rumored to be responsible for the death of a dozen mages, several reconstructions of the Thieves' Den, and countless kidnappings, Naer Nivios had no known children. He died under the axe of then Justiciar, Regilus ab Porter, in Votumas 357. His alleged last words were profanity, although Southsiders often attribute the phrase 'break the cycle' to him, something that sums up the man's beliefs about using violence to forcefully squeeze the wealth from Northside until the Southers were just as rich.
