What is your characters race and name?
What is his/her backstory?
What are your goals in your characters life?
What do you plan on doing in Skyrim?
Do you plan on owning a home?
What will you do to make a living?

All these are just to see the differences and similarities in everyones individual game! Answer them, and see which person is closest to you!

My characters name will be RuGaard, he will be an Argonian.
He was a mass murderer and famous assassin in Morrowind, overrun by guards, he fled the realm, only to be caught by guards on the Skyrim border.
My goals for RuGaard? I only have three, join the Dark Brotherhood! Worship Sheogorath! Worship lord Nihilous!
I plan on killing everyone who looks at me wrong!
I will totally own the biggest home in Skyrim!
Kill people!

A male Imperial (though I will roleplay he's half Nord) named Arithyr Winterson.
He is the descendant of the Champion of Cyrodiil, whose family and he had became great nobles within Cyrodiil after the Oblivion Crisis. When the Medes stormed the city, the Champion took his family, and his substantial wealth, to his birthplace of Skyrim. 200 years later, and the family were still among the wealthiest in Skyrim. Arithyr grew up in a luxurious manor in Winterhold, every whim attended to. When he left home however, and saw the social and economic inequalities lying outside his front door, he forsook his noble lifestyle, gave all of his wealth to the poor, and took up the life of a ranger and revolutionary. He was imprisoned and sentenced to death for aiding in a slave revolt, and helping freed slaves cross the border into Cyrodiil.
His goals are to protect the needy and master his weapons (two swords and a bow).
I plan to spend a lot of time in the wilderness and giving my excess wealth to beggars. Probably do some guilds if they fit the character, MQ as well of course.
No, he's a ranger and can't stand being out of the woods for very long.
He will hunt, sell potions and help those who need him.

Race: Imperial male
Name: Spurius Amatius
Background: A greedy, noble mage who is manipulative and obsessed with wealth and status. He will do anything that furthers his own gain or makes his pockets a little fatter and once he sets his sights on something he will stop at nothing until he has claimed it. If character creation is as I hope it will be he will be a stout, fat, balding grease ball with a sinister moustache. :thumbsup:

What is your characters race and name? Aaeron
What is his/her backstory? Born into a respected noble family. His father, sensing an undeniable raw talent and whom happened to be a legendary warrior himself decided he would teach him the ways of a true warrior. His training began at an early age and he progressed at an astonishly quick pace that even his father wouldnt dream to predict.. Though Years would pass before such raw talent was realised and upon seeing this his father acknowledged there was no more he could teach his son. One morning the family decided to take Aaeron on a stroll in the forrest., The air was crisp and the snow seemed to linger in the air as it fell softly blanketing the tree tops above them. Aaeron would always wonder off from his parents as the sounds of the forrest intrigued him. He bounded off further away from the path and as he stepped foot on an accumulated stack of twigs he was instanly flung from his feet and strung up dangling helplessly in the air as he heard the faint grumbles of excited orcs. He called out to his father as the footsteps edged closer but before he could shout again he felt a cold, almost slimy, hand cover his mouth as a club cannoned into his face, breaking his nose and knocking him out in one swift blow. Aaeron regained consciousness hours later with blood seeping from his mangled nose, he scanned around his new enviroment - it seemed to be a settlement for slaves which patrolled by a dozen orcs. The conditions were terrible. Aaeron was confined to a tiny cage and was rarely fed and often beaten. The orcs would try to break the will of each slave before they would sell them on to the highest bidder, they knew the slaves with no will power would attract the biggest profits.. However they could not break Aaerons will no matter how hard they tried. Years passed by and Aaerons skills became less and less sharp and with hardly any nutrients Aaerons strength withered away.. After a long while one orc decided he couldnt continue this way and almost ironically the orcs will had broken before Aaerons - so he unlocked his cage grabbed his deteriorating body and threw him to the floor gripping there rusty iron mace from his side as he did raising it slowly before swinging it straight for Aaerons skull.. Luckily Aaerons training had not completely left him and he swiftly dodged the mace which whistled as it missed his ear he then reached for the dagger on the leather belt of the orc, pulling it out and before the orc had a chance to react Aaeron had slit his throat. The orcs lifeless body crumpled to the floor as Aaeron took his belongings from the wooden crate beside his old cage and dissapeared into the shadows. He escaped from the settlement and set off to find civilisation. He learned alot about the forrest on his journey - how to hunt,what to eat,what not to eat and of course and many more valuable lessons. Finally Aaeron reached a tavern, he pushed open the large wooden doors and made his way to the landlord when someone caught his eye. It was his mother. Aaeron ran over to her but as she saw him she gasped in fear, Aaeron's face was badly mangled he was not recognisable even to his own mother. She screamed for help as a few of the gaurds who were drinking at the bar forcefully grabbed Aaeron pulling him back by his arms whiched caused the pendant his father once gave him to fling out his top and lay flat on his chest for all to see. Aaerons mother who was taken back by the sight of it quickly came to the conclusion that this must be her sons kidnapper and told the gaurds immediatly. The gaurds arrested Aaeron before he had a chance to explain and took him to jail. Whilst in jail Aaeron learned of his fathers death from an old imperial who shared the cell next to him .. he was devastated and before he had a chance to mourn a gaurd informed him that there was enough evidence to convict Aaeron without trial, largely due to the fact of his mothers noble bloodline, he would be sentenced to death........
What do you plan on doing in Skyrim? Using what his father had taught him for the good of Skyrim.
Do you plan on owning a home? A Wooden one in the forrest.
What will you do to make a living? hunt for treasure and do favours for good people.

What is your characters race and name?
Arriere. race is indeterminate since he has no idea who is parents might be. his blonde hair and grey eyes indicate Nord but his generally slimbuild and average height, along with certain facial featrues, are more breton or perhaps even a bit of Bosmer.

What is his/her backstory?
Abandoned at birth he is taken in by a noble family. But their goal is not at all noble. Locked away he is intensely trained and educated. He is to be an assassin at the beck and call of his master. His lord, however, is on the wrong end of a battle. Arriere escapes with little more than the clothes on his back. Trained to be a cold blodded killer, this training is at odds with his personality. The result is a person who is an odd mix of good and evil, willling to taste of both.

What are your goals in your characters life?
Freedom and adventure for its own sake. Anything that is not his former life. All ties that bind are to be rejected. All experiences are to be embraced.

What do you plan on doing in Skyrim?'
Adventure. The advantage of this back story is that it allows me to take this character through any adventure or quest, good or evil. He doesn't care one way or the other so anything is just fine with him, as long as it's fun.

Do you plan on owning a home?
Maybe, but just to blow money and store stuff. Definitely not as a "permanent" residence.

What will you do to make a living?
Stealing is fun. He is not evil and so prefers to steal from the rich. Unlike Robin Hood, he keeps it. Adventuring and exploring. Getting into situations only to get out. Rising to head a guild only to immediately abondon the responsibility.

In game play Arriere is a duelist/thief. He wears no armor and uses a longsword, dagger and bow. Speed and agility are his best traits and strength is not. He kills by skill and not by brute force. He is also quite happy not to kill at all. Arriere has the intelligence but not the patience or discipline for the arcane arts, therefore his knowledge of magic is weak.

Race: Nord (yeah, I know its mainstream)
Name: Won't give it to anyone.
Background: Grew up in a small village in the forests of Skyrim. The village was known to house numerous Resistance members. (A group I've sort of made up, they're Nordic guerilla fighters resisting the Empire, I roleplayed in Oblivion as one of their members who actually killed the Emperor, and then became a reluctant Champion of Cyrodiil in order to mend the damage he had caused.) His parents, the last of the Dovahkiin but not members of the Resistance, died in a forest fire which consumed the whole town. Luckily, he was out fishing in the forest with his friends and managed to jump into the river and be carried downstream away from the burning forest. They assumed the Imperial Legion was behind this, as they later spotted a number of them poking through the village afterwards, presumably to check everyone was dead. In reality, Dragons had caused the fire, only dragon flame could have raged so uncontrollably and quickly. With the few survivors of the fire, he established a Resistance outpost in the forest, feared by the Imperial Legion for appearing out of the blackened land without warning, but secretly adored by the peasants and those hurt by imperial rule. One day however, the Imperial Legion begins a systematic sweep of the forest. The Resistance members fled, but most were killed and only my character and his friend, a Khajiit called Licks-His-Ass(who I will also be playing as a thief character) escaped into the cold mountains. During a horrible blizzard, they were separated and freezing, alone, and starving my character limped into a city and was taken prisoner by the Legion without a struggle. Knowing his fate, he prepares for his life to end...
Goals: Still holds a deep grudge against the Imperial Legion, but no longer kills them. Will help poor people, but is not confined to any guild or faction. Was hollowed out by his previous experiences, and no longer fears death nor killing others. Mainly, he wants to be left alone. Is bound by his moral beliefs, but has no whims about breaking the law.
Plan: Wing it, anything that fits my character.
Home: A small shack in the forest, or any other empty place that seems homely enough.
Make a Living: Anything necessary that he doesn't deem immoral, thievery is acceptable if from the rich.
