Originally, the blades had started out as famed Dragonslayers. They would set out across Skyrim and Tamriel and hunt the dragons down with the full intent on killing them. With the rise of the Dragonborn and the defeat of Alduin their roles changed from Dragon Slayer to Bodyguard and agent, their portfolio changing and broadening considerably over the years from the first Era through to the third and finally their fall during the Fourth Era. Though few remain from the efforts of the Thalmor in rooting out all of their agents the blades have hidden themselves away, seeking to keep themselves alive until another dragonborn arises. Though with the rise of Alduin and the many dragons that have been resurrected it seems the new dragonborn has far more to deal with than what they can handle. Each day the dragon threat grows, more and more come alive from the graveyards and so the remnants of the blades have started putting out covert feelers for capable men and women from any walk of life to help them in ridding the dragon menace from Tamriel, starting with Skyrim.
The new recruits have been instructed to meet at Vindrel Hall in Markarth, each of them given a small ring with a dragon head engraved to the top as a sign of having accepted the offer from the agent that met them. Their new future, awaits.
Rules:
No Character Control
No Godmodding
Romance to be kept to a PG13 rating (Anything can be implied on some level but nothing explicit at all)
Starting Gear will affect the rewards given out throughout the RP, if you start with a full suit of Ebony, expect your rewards to be significantly less than someone who starts with steel. (No Deadric weapons/artifacts or armour. May come later )
Balance your characters out.
4 Spots are available at the moment, I will create open points in the rp for more people throughout its life.
Dragon shouts! I will allow them, BUT you must provide a good reason as to how you managed to learn it. (Limit them to only the first word for now, maybe second word, will need to be discussed per individual.)
I am god, if a mage pops out and turns you into a sheep, then you are dinner!
RP is freeforming, as the characters help build the story with their own subplots, so be creative!

Siri
Name: Siri
Gender: Female
Age: 22
Race: Nord
Skills: Archery, One handed (only with axes), Block, Speech, Light Armor, Heavy Armor (not very skilled in it, but uses it regardless), Restoration, and Sneak are Siri’s main skills used. She is also a good cook, musician, and armature pickpocket.
General Appearance: Siri is a slender woman, standing at about five feet five inches, and has long, golden blonde hair. Her eyes are a cold blue color, and has delicate features that are considered to be attractive.
Weapons: Siri wields a simple hunting bow for her normal ranged combat, but also has a steel war axe and iron shield for close combat.
Armour/Clothing: Modified Stormcloak armor, with an extra layer of boiled leather, as well as an Iron Shield.
Other Items: Lute, Flute (hey, that rhymed!), a torch, some dried travel rations, and the occasional book are not uncommon in her pack.
Personality: Siri is a very laid back and easy going person, but she knows how to crack the whip and get stuff done. She is more intelligent than most of her Nord brethren, and prefers to find some sort of unique way to solve a problem or defeat a foe. Not the best strait up fighter, but she is not to be underestimated.
Brief History: Siri was born in Morthal, where she was raised. At the age of sixteen, she left home and traveled to Solitude to study at the Bard’s College, and learned quite a lot about writing, poetry, and history, as well as music playing, which is her passion. After being a traveling bard and scholar for many years, Siri found herself in Windhelm, and made friends with a group of prospective Stormcloaks, and quickly joined the rebellion, due to the instinctive nationalism flowing through her blood. After several battles, Siri decided that the war was pointless and horrible, so she once again became a drifter, and found an interesting job opportunity with the blades.
