So just like in Skyrim and elder scrolls I always like to have a back story to motivate me to take certain sides in factions, do certain quests, and just all out destroy every person of a certain race I see. I have been playing a 2h Nord since I started in elder scrolls and here is my backstory for ESO. Sry its so long I rly got into it!
The Nord Awakened, all he could feel was the cold floor under him, and the chains on his wrists and ankles. How had it come to this, how had he dropped so low? Just 2 days ago he was a king, the most powerful man in all of Skyrim. He starts to stand, but suddenly he is hit with flashbacks! Flashbacks of previous trials, of past memories burned into his memory. The first being of him as a boy, training to use the great sword like his pa. Oh how he longed to be like him, a savior of Skyrim, a true Nord hero. His Pa had climbed the ladder from poor pickpocket to Thane. Now he sits with the leaders of Skyrim and makes all the decisions. "Ugh" the Nord says, I can't do this! The memories made him feel weak. Before he could recover from the last, another comes! This one of his father on his knees! "NO, THATS NOT MY FATHER,MY FATHER BOWS TO NO MAN!" he screams. But it was, the great war had just ended, He was bowing to a high elf, it was disgusting. Nord's don't bow! The Nord ran, and kept running, scream crying, thrashing everything he could. He was furious. He went home and sat on the rock outside, took out his knife and slashed his hand, oh how it hurt, he quietly vowed to himself, that no matter what, life or death, he would bow to no man,no High elf, NO ONE, NOTHING. He would not be weak, like his father! The Nord comes too, face down, starts to stand, all he sees is a cell, dark cold cell. He tries to remember how he got here, but can't. Another flashback comes, it's him Killing a vampire lord, Haarkin or something, he cant recall. He then comforts another vampire, the daughter? He sees the ring on her finger, looks at his and can see the wedding ring mark. Was he married to a vampire? His heart drops as he remembers, Where was she!? Was she ok?!?! just then another flashback comes, its him making a dragon bow before him, with just a shout, a shout in weird tongue. He killed Miraak, the first dragon born, and absorbed his power, yes it's all coming back. He was the savior or Skyrim, He was a king, no man ruled him, every man feared him! Just how he dreamed it! His father would be proud! The Nord killed all high elves he saw, he took back Skyrim, he killed every last high elf in Skyrim and then turned his sights to dragons. He tried to duplicate the shouts he knows he was taught, but when he does a pain shoots through him, "UGH" He cant do them! All of a sudden he sees his own death, an assassin, while he slept. He wakes to see a shadow, he jumps out of bed and darts for his great sword, SLASH, he gets stabbed in the ribs, he swings the mighty sword around and decapitates the would be assassin, but falls to 1 knee,NO! the dagger was poisoned. With Dimsol, a special poison the dark brotherhood made to fight the dragons, it was only effective on dragons, and he was dragon born. After all he had survived, this is how it ends he thought. Blackness surrounds him. He will return, and if he can not, he vows to kill every dark brotherhood member he can until he finds out who put the contract on him. He will continue to be the man his legacy says he is, Ruthless to the high elves, He will kill them all, kill anyone who stands in his way!
