You inspired me to add on my chars backstory!
Do you wanna see it now?
[backstory alert]
My first characters name will be Gustav Sybbyl, an awesomely skilled Assassin, with dual knifes and a black cloak, he was put in jail for an assassination, you see he never knew his parents, they were very deeply involved with gods, almost demigod-like (being dragonborn), it was rumored that after Martin, last of the dragonborn was anticipated to perish, Akatosh sent three holy emissaries (HoK included) scattered throughout Cyrodiil, these holy men, thought gods, were not successful in their mission however, and Martin died, along with the septim line. But Akatosh now had an embodiment in the mortal world (statue in temple district), increasing his influence, allowing him to construct two new lines of Dragonborn.
Gustav Sybbyl is the most Powerful dragonborn in millenia, because he was a mixture between both families. Years later Akatosh, now Anduin, realized his mistake in returning the Dragonborn to the mortal world, and sent a band of secret monks to assassinate young Gustav and his parents, who sacrificed themselves for his life. Gustav began training to use a knife and thrown weaons immediately after his parents death, he realised that he must learn to survive in this harsh environment, and he trained in the art of being unseen as well, he took the chance whenever a bandit, or caravan, arrived at the house, to kill them. Years later, Gustav found the leader of the monks and exacted his revenge, not knowing anything about their order, or his importance, but for the murder, he was imprisoned.
He is a resentful, vengeful assassin who must change his ways in order to save the mortal world. His weapon of choice is dual daggers, or (if they are in) throwing knives, he prefers a dark-brotherhood type armor, he hates dishonorable and organized assassinations, shrouded by a black cloak. His hair is loose and long-ish, and white, his eyes too, are pale blue, and he is slightly taller than most Bosmer and more sinewy. However, none notice this because of his cloak. His motto is "Last thing you'll ever see"
He is very attached to his horse, Slikver the elven horse. He happened upon him after a Falmer (O.O) raiding party passed his remote farm, then Slikver wandered away from the Falmer camp, and happened upon Gustav, who at the time was thinking of a way to get to said monk-leaders coven. [see above]
After being Imprisoned, he lost Slikver, will Gustav ever find him? Will he ever get out of Gaol alive?
