In the begining the Divines made a garden for man and woman and they where told 'Do not eat the fruit from that tree.' A fox visited the woman and offered her an apple from the tree. He told her the apple would give her knowledge. He was very pursuasive. Men and Mer alike have been paying the price ever since... All because we were tempted by something we didn't need. The fox was the first grifter.
Five years after the Oblivion crisis in Cyrodill some semblence of order has been retained. However the state of Cyrodill is not great finacially and is still unstable, that is to say, The rich get richer and the poor stay poor. Its time for that to change.
Just remember, You can't cheat an honest man.
Your Role
You will be a grifter (Con man, Con Artist, Hustler, Scam artist) working in the Imperial city. you will somehow, someway meet with my character who is looking to form a grifting crew. Its time to do something about the fat cats and their gold grabbing ways.You can either previously know my character or each other or we can all be complete strangers. We will eventually work our way up to one big mark. So all in all our aim is to do some good and take down the greedy people of this world and of course make some money.
We will come across as smart and stylish people, witty and quick on our feet. we will need people whocan do all sorts like forge documents and all manner of things like that. I will controll any marks however you may controll other NPC's and we will not just be in the Imperial City we will go to other city's as well.
This is not an action orientated rp it is a thinking and character driven rp there may be some action at points but not on a large scale at all.
If you have any questions or suggestions please feel free to ask/say and we will have a maximum of 5-6 people including me.
