Name: Eric Snowmane
Race: Nord
Age: 45
Appearance: 5'11" and 235 lbs of muscle. He has long, brown hair that extends to about the middle of his shoulder blades and a full beard that is about the length of his fist, although both are starting to grey, hence the name "Snowmane". He has a scarred body and face, with a prominent gash over his left eye from an enemies' dagger.
Talents, skills, and/or abilities: Extremely deadly with a battleaxe, and he can intimidate the average person to the point where violence becomes unneccesary.
Apparel, weapons and Misc: A Dwarven Battleaxe that was given to him by his grandfather upon joining the Legion, that he calles "Bloodaxe" because of its rough, jagged edge that brutally cuts up his foes. He also has his old Imperial Heavy Armor from his time in the Civil War fighting for the Legion
Background: He hails from Rorikstead. He joined the Imperial Legion in the Civil War, following a long standing tradition, dating back to the Oblivion Crisis, of the 1st male child of the family joining the Legion to bring honor to the family. He saw plenty of action, always wanting to be at the front of every invasion, earning a reputation as a no-nonsense warrior and feared opponent. Even the Stormcloaks knew and feared him. He was discharged shortly before the Legion's defeat in Solitude, because he took two arrows to the chest, resulting in months of serious pain that has, thankfully, subsided with some physical therapy and exercise.
After his discharge, he returned to Rorikstead and began a simple life of living on the family farm doing farmwork, however it never satisfied him like fighting did. He tried hard to adapt to civillian life, but couldn't, so he jumped at the call for people to search the Dwemer ruins, knowing that there could be trouble for the scholars, and a warrior's presence might be needed.
