I've seen plenty of posts where you describe who your character is, but I'd like to add a twist. Post images of your character here so that other people can try to determine their story, how they play, etc. Then see how close you are when the creator describes him/her after the guess.

Here's mine (more than one image, scroll down):

I'm in a bit of a rush, if this doesn't make much sense that's why.

I dunno. Looks like he's deep in wilderness off questing. I dunno. :shrug:

You are Calibos from the original Clash of the Titans movie. You were engaged to Andromeda, but you killed all the flying horses (except one) and the gods cursed you and you were exiled from your people (also, they messed up your face). Because of that, you took Andromeda as your prisoner. Now you are waiting for Perseus to come and foil your plans.

At least that's what I saw in the 3rd and 4th shots:

Shahavan Hovala was outcast from Morrowind after a series of high profile assassinations traced back to him. Hounded out of the cities he passed into Skyrim.

Surviving by hunting, Shahavan made his way through the companion ranks, though with growing distaste for the naivety of the nordic personality. Approached by the Dark Brotherhood, he truly began to make his name, combining his military training with practiced stealth to bring silent death on behalf of those with the coin, and lack of morality to request it of him.

You must be on Consoles because i cant really see his face, i think its a Mer... which one i cant tell.


Here is mine:

Shavalan joined the Blades after a series of successful missions in the Dark Brotherhood. Though he was a skilled and somewhat notorious assassin in his own right, his Dunmer ancestry and longevity made him feel the call of the Blades' long history compelling.

Here's mine.

Is she a relative to one of the Oblivion Orcs? last name sounds extremely familiar.

I made her a relative of my Morrowind and Oblivion Orcs. I don't think "Uzgul" is a family name of an Oblivion NPC though. There's a Borba gra-Uzgash in Cheydinhal, maybe that's who you're thinking of

Oh i see, my Elf is pretty much the same elf from Oblivion and she is also not the Dragonborn.

Mine is kind of obvious: http://cloud.steampowered.com/ugc/632983753069050636/60C9369BA657A7D228E5267F80ABCB98B243A1D5/

That Bosmer looks quite cool, what armor is he wearing?

Intrepid adventurer using a discarded satellite dish as a shield

A difficult one because from her (amazingly sweet) face and her body I'd suggest that she's definetly a mage, but her armor and equipment prooves otherwise. So I think she's stronger than she seems to be.

Mine: http://s7.directupload.net/images/111125/7p3yryeb.jpg

She is a really Young Elven Princess not native to Nirn, she would be more the equivalent to a Paladin but relies a lot on Speed and Acrobatics since she is too weak physically (same reason she uses Hardened Light Elven Armor) but can handle her own in battles, she also highly capable of Magic (like all her People) but resorts to only using Healing Magic since she is not too attracted to the Arcane Arts, she mostly travels with her Counselor and her Bodyguard who are also Elves not from Tamriel, Obviously she is not related to the Elves of Nirn, since she comes from elves who has never lost Immortality, she is considered a "Teen" by her own people, but she already exceded average human Lifespan, she has an adventurous and free spirit and tends to get in trouble a lot for this, she is infact rather Sweet, immatue, innocent and gets tricked quite easily, she is also not the type to jump into a fight with no reason since she rather talk and reason her way into others, but will not hesitate to defend to Death the ones she trusts and love, she also feels saddened by the situation of the Elves of Tamriel who she feels has lost their ways and hence lost immortality, she specially feels disgusted by the Thalmor and the Almeri Dominion who she calls Arrogant and Ambicious, she has aided mortal humans captives by the Thalmor for worshipping Thalos few times, mostly for pity... she still does not understands the whole worshipping of what mortals calls "Gods", but acknowledges Mortal right to do so if they will, since where she is from the woshipping of Gods is considered a trait of primitive civilizations and Mortal Issues. They have attracted the attention of many Elves and Scholars in the Arcane from Skyrim, since their Aura is somewhat Ethereal, this has cause few curious individuals to try and capture her party for further examination, specially from a Thalmor Agent who was witness to the Powerfull Magic one of her companions posses.

I am trying not to do any of the Main Dragonborn Quests, mostly playing her as an Adventurer who is passing through Skyrim towards Morrowind, where they need to find an artifact to travel back to their own place.

Did you make her a child hoping she wouldn't be killable?




Wow what took longer, writing that backstory or crafting that pretty face for her? I mean that in a positive way, I think it's great and I also RP like this :yes:

I been writting a Book with her whole background for the last 2 years, i mostly do this from times to times, obviously i do not intend to use Tamriel or any TES content in my book, but sure does makes a lot of fun Playing my char in Tamriel as a what if... you can also check a pic of her when she was in Cyrodiil:

It took me like 10 minutes to creater her face in Oblivion and arround 1 hour in Skyrim, luckily i got the Elven Light Armor from some idiotic Thalmor party who held a Nord for interrogation, and my char asked them what gives them the right to drag people out of their homes for worshipping a God, the Thalmor agent responded by asking my char if she worshipped Thalos, she remain Silent since their kind does not worship any Gods, the Thalmor just assumed she did... and attacked my Character, which her Bodyguard and her Counselor reacted and pretty much beated the crap out of the Thalmor party, one of them survived and scaped, but my char at least got a nice shinny Tamrielic Elven Light Armor.

She constantly has to tell male NPCs "NO, I'm not interested! Go back to your tepid mead!"

Did you use a mod for the face? I could never get a high elf to look that good.

No, the only mod i am using is the no blocky faces and a reskin for the eyes, and yes she also does not like being hit by every male who crosses her path.

Here's my character! She's dressed in commoner's clothes though so I guess you can't really guess her class.

I'd ask why he looks so pissed, but I'm familiar with the lore. Dark Elves have every right to walk around pissed. B)

EDIT: O right, I'm supposed to guess what he's like. I think he's a big softie and carries his stuffed kwama around wherever he travels. When he's bored, he likes to craft paper cliff racers and annoy people with them.

Have you used a mod or other means to get two followers so that she has the bodyguard and counselor you mention? Or is there a way to do that in vanilla Skyrim? Just wondering. I like the narrative and I've had that encounter ingame except my orc let them walk by since he saw no immediate opportunity for profit.

I like this bit, think I'll take it!

Let's see, how to describe him (my character)...

Most know him as a noble who spends his time exploring the wild. Skilled with a shield and sword, he'll go out of his way to save those in trouble. Get on his bad side, however, and the last thing you'll feel is a dagger at your throat, the whistle of an arrow the last you'll hear. He's a member of the Dark Brotherhood not because of some devote belief in Sithis, but to turn his skills to coin. It also provides an excellent challenge. As for the Blades armor, he joined because he believes in their once valiant cause. However, he has been disillusioned by the apparent corruption and selfish goals and wears the armor to remember the old ways of protecting those in need.

Meh. I added two better photos of his face. I miss having a PC capable of playing these games. I miss mods. :sadvaultboy:
