4E 157

It's been more than a century since the Champions death.

The empire stood for only a decade after the Emporers death, then all hell broke loose. It started with the failed assassination of Ocato, who the assassin was sent by is still unkown. Many accusations sprung up. It seemed everyone thought they should be the one to sit on the throne, after many long arguements in the imperial palace, Armies rose, Tamriel was in an all out civil war, with too many sides to count. Once the smoke cleared this is what is left of Tamriel's provinces.

MORROWIND
Great Houses: Each house has is its own nation now, the temple aligned with the indoril.
Here they are ranking in strength:
Indoril
Nerevarine
Redoran
Telvani
Hlaalu(Alligned with Old Empire)
Dres
Ashlander

BLACK MARSH
Scattered tribes of Argonians and some old empire control and constant attacks by morrowind slavers.

CYRODIIL
Old Empire
Colovian Alliance (First major rebels)
Some of North Valenwood

ELSWEYR
In worst shape, from raids by slavers, brutal war, and almost total occupation by North and South Valenwood

VALENWOOD
North Valenwood (Aligned with Colovians)
South Valenwood (Aligned with Old Empire)

SKYRIM
Occupied by war clans, some of west is occupied by great houses, chunk of east occupied by New Orsinium

HAMMERFELL
South occupied by Hammerfell(Aligned with Colovians)
North by New Orsinium (Orc Empire)

HIGH ROCK
East half New Orsinium
West High Rock (Aligned with Old Empire)

SUMMERSET ISLE
Self ruled

I like how you've gone way out into the future, after the Champion has died and all that. I'm currently working on an RP right now but I would like to see how this one turns out, because it has potential.

Name: Irilius Deximus
Age: 31
Appearance: Typical Imperial build except a more muscly build due to a moderate time in the Blades
Armour: Blade Armour minus helmet.
Weapon: Blade of a Thousand Suns (Longsword).
Personality: Short temper, inability to lead, short attention span.
Biography:

Irilius was born into a debt bound family. When his mother and father were sent to the Imperial Prison for unpaid taxes he was sent into the Imperial Legion, even though he was only 14. At 17 he finally gained his armour and spear and participated in a long battle with unknown forces, possibly underlings of the daedra. Only he and his squad commander survived and they were forced to retreat. When his commander recieved a fireball to the leg Irilius refused to go on. Daedric forces surrounded the two. Just when hope was bleak the Blades came and destroyed the daedric forces. When asked why they were there the Blade Captain just answered 'Fate'. Irilius was accepted into the Blades because of his heroic actions but his commander was deemed too injured for active service. A few years later when he and three other blades were investigating a phenominon (actually an oblivion gate) it collapsed for reasons unknown and Irilius was forced into the future.

He reappeared in an unknown time but a familiar place = Cloud Ruler Temple. Hundreds of blades were in and around the temple. He rejoined the ranks and was told of the current unrest in the old provinces of the Empire.

Name: Catches-His-Prey
Race: Argonian*
Gender: Male
Age: Recently had his naming day, so he is quite young

Skills: Despite preferring to wear armor of the heavier kind, he can actually run quite fast.

Personality: He's quiet, even for an Argonian. He's more of an actions man.
Bio: He was part of a tribe that decided to remain hidden rather than fight, but just in case they had their own minor militia force. Other's did not see their way however and during his naming day the tribe was attacked by a more aggressive (and powerful) tribe. Fortunately for him he was out on patrol while this happened, but he was close enough to hear the battling lizards. He ran as fast as he could and when he got there he was one of five warriors remaining. Terrified by the sight of those close too him being slaughtered, he couldn't move. He just stood there, watching. He was again stricken with fortune, because suddenly the War Chief** of the opposing tribe appeared, crushing unhatched eggs with a giant hammer. Brandishing his sword, he charged towards their leader and struck him down in one fast move. Destabilized by the loss of their commander the other Argonians fled, leaving him the last warrior standing, with only a handful of tribespeople left. The mystics blessed him with the name Catches-His-Prey due to his slaying of the attacking force's leader. Their victory did not last long though, because a few days later slavers from Morrowind arrived and captured his brethren, while he, the only remaining warrior, was struck down and assumed dead but due to reptillian beings' natural regeneration he quickly recovered. He now walks the lands after taking a vow to destroy all slavery in Tamriel...

Appearance: Despite the Argonians' more slender and agile ways, he is actually quite muscular: More than an Imperial, less than a Redguard.
Apparel: Wears the traditional tribal clothes to honor his fallen comrades, which mostly consists of materials from his homeland (Pelts, swampmuck etc.) Also has one of the enemy War Chief's** talons as a necklace.
Armor: Wears any kind of armor that offers good protection, regardless of encumbrance.
Weapon: Prefers a sword, but is not entirely useless with a bow either.
Misc: Owns nothing but what is allready mentioned

* Made after the Oblivion style Argonians
** Don't know if it is called War Chief in Black Marsh, but they would serve the same purpose as one.

Name: Robert Leblanc (Robert has a silent 't')
Nickname: Accepts being called Rob
Gender: Male
Race: Breton
Age: 22

Faction: Colovian Alliance
Rank: Mage Lieutenant

Skills: Alteration, Alchemy, Mystysism, Blade, Staff

Appearance: taller that the average Breton but all other aspects of him fall under stereotypical Breton guidelines, pale, dark haired, rather skinny. The first two fingers on his right hand badly scarred as well as a scar that reaches from the left corner of his mouth for about 5 cm (2 in). Not 'handsome' in the conventional sense but attractive in his own way. Rather large eyes that begin blue on the outer rim but turn to yellow in the centre.

Apparel: Mages robe (blue), light leather shoes, fingerless leather gloves.
Armor: Leather armour under his robe, intricately engraved iron pauldrons that he straps to his robe.
Weapons: Mages staff, two silver daggers up his sleeves, fine steel shortsword.
Other Equiptment: Basic alchemy gear, small amount of Septims, Mages guild books on spellcraft.

Personality: Very quick with a smile or a joke, but also VERY annoying about correct pronounciation and word usage
a vaey nice, kind, loyal friend, an irritating sarcastic, cynical person to others though.
His use of Magick on the battle field is rather unorthodox, he won't burn them to a cinder, he'd throw them very high in the air with a telekenesis spell aided by his staff to boost the Magick. Incredibly un-selfconfident, though doesn't show it.
Favours logic and reasond, as such follows Julianos as his personal diety.

Bio: Raised by a scholar and a succesful merchant, intelligence was expected of Robert and they were not dissapointed he aced his Alteration, Alchemy and Mystysism classes and passed his apprenticeship with flying colours, after succeding, most expected Robert to straight away work his way up the Guild ladder, unfortunately for them Robert chose to explore and wander for several years, using his skills as a mage to pay the bills spent most of his time in both Valenwood and Summerset Isle.

I decided to add a new component to the game, faction(I originally had it but forgot to put it in) check info to know how to answer. If my players (all four of you) could please make a post answering it, or update your character sheet, it would be appreciated. Also, I will start the RP in three days no matter what.
