Its a thread to hear all the different stories of the characters you've created, it really intrigues me to see where the minds of others have taken them within the series (it doesn't have to be skyrim but any TES game in general).

For today (cause I can't remember any of my oblivion or morrowind characters other than a few feats) I'll be talking about some of my skyrim characters.

Father Flail:
Father flail is a priest/ Paladin whom was sent to skyrim prison (beggining of the game) for bashing in a defenseless man's skull with a mace screaming Daedra be gone. He's a self endowed priest who traveled the land ridding the world of vampires Daedra and other unworldly creations/beings, he traveled to skyrim in hopes of finding the remnants of Dawnguard, a group in which word has spread all throughout Tamriel was rallying east of riften to deal with the country of skyrims growing vampire threat, on his way he ran into a daedra (which in reality was Molag bal in disguise) after a fierce battle between the two the Daedra ripped out the Fathers pupil and iris leaving only his eyeball, and through this eye every being he saw was a daedra, a reality that didn't come into fruition until right after he killed an innocent man. As he wondered about filled with rage at the mysterious daedra in which he battled with (and all daedra as consiquence) he stumbled his way to malkarth and discovered the mace of molag bal, it was then that he decided in his left hand he would send all unearthly beings and undead to peace with magic within the restoration field, and in his right he would send all living to the hell in which they relished in (violence) for all of eternity. little does he know that while he tries his hardest to be a holy man, all the lives he sends to molag bal will be his very undoing for in reality he is serving the daedra and prince that he hates oh so well.

Soul Speaker: soul speaker is a breton whom of which spent most of his youth out in nature, becoming so attuned with it that he began to see and have conversations with the souls that have yet to leave the planet. as he continued growing his ability to speak to spirits grew into a social relationship he thrived upon soon attaining the ability to summon the spirits of wolves and such. he was a wonderful individual seeking a form of enlightenment without even realizing such. in his journeys he eventually found his way in skyrim, it was here that he witnessed in the woods a skirmish between skyrims rebels and the imperials, due to his lack of action the imperials seized him and thought he was simply a coward working for the rebellion.

After the attack on helgen, he had made his way to solitude slightly shaken up but as carefree as usual. it was here that he found the bards guild and here he thrived, playing his songs and singing till he went over to Windhelm where he heard of a boy performing a ritual, he checked up on the boy learning of the ill woman in charge of the orphanage, to fully grasp the scenario he headed down to riften to see what was going on... as he entered he heard the womans ill speech and watched as she beat a child when he went to stop her she pulled out a dagger, and he threw her back , the dagger she had drew slipped from her hands and into her gut. she died, the bard never having taken a life before was in shock, he returned to the boy assuring him his problem is no more and to go back to the orphanage for the other orphans missed him. Upon going to sleep the young bard woke up in a shack and was forced to take someones life or his life be taken instead, hesitent he chose to take a life, never wishing for it to go so far, afterwards he was drug through the dark brotherhood and soon got over the ill feelings of murder, once again becoming carefree if not slightly twisted. Soon he discovered his purpose his reason for all this, stating the night mother must have guided him here, and realizing that he was indeed an individual of importance he was a listener. As he blindly fell deeper into darkeness and insanity without realizing it, the spirits he talked to mirrored this, soon he was talking to dremora lords as their equal, and in time as their leader. A bard became one of the most powerful entities that has lived in centuries going so far as even destroying (utterly) the original dragonborne and talking to gods as if he were their equal in power. But at what cost?
