My character usually uses the same name and the same race. So I guess you could say he's immortal. It fits with the lore. He never does the main quests so he doesn't become champion/nereverine/etc..

It could just be my Telvanni Mage Character from Morrowind, he could return with avengence after the fall of his lands.

Of course!

Word up!

I have a continuous bloodline since Morrowind (The Somniorums), but I also make characters on the fly.

Yep. I'm a huge tes nerd that's kept track of the exploits of a particular lineage of Sithis obsessed Argonians from Daggerfall through Oblivion.

The last hero of the family from the oblivion timeline was not the champion of Cyrodil, but rather a cutthroat mercenary who hated dunmer and imperial culture. He was known for offering to help close oblivion gates, then murdering the guards he was escorting once inside. A very cruel insurgent who took advantage of the turmoil to cause even more of it.

I'm assuming that he was heralded quite favorably by the An-Xileel after the Oblivion crisis, and in the 200 years since then, the family has served that fledgeling party zealously, as well as sitting on their laurels and being too rich to bother with adventuring. apparently the youngest heir to the line wasn't content with that, though, and seems to have ended up in Skyrim...

I have one tightly knit and largely rooted Redoran house Dunmer family, so there will likely be an offspring of the Belvani family in Skyrim. There'll be plenty of originals making an appearance as well though.

Won't be, as my character from Daggerfall will be given new life by the blood god, Khorne, after centuries of torture for his failure to bend the Numidium to his will during the events of Daggerfall. Wulfrik the Bloody will slay Alduin World Eater for the blood god Khorne! This world is to be defiled by Chaos, not eaten up by a cosmic dragon!

As for my other mains, the guy from Oblivion followed the visions he received from Tzeentech, and manipulated events to bring forth the end of the 3rd era, and became the madgod. As for the nerevarine, after bring entropy to a long stagnant nation, the insane follower of Nurgle left to Akavir, as he was bored.

Yes I am very dedicated to Chaos!

A bloodline? Well, I suppose it's not too late to start. There's a problem though..... my first character is always from the race native to that country, ( I was a Dunmer in MW a Imperial in OB, plan to be a Nord in Skyrim) so that might be difficult........ I'd have to make a seperate group of characters.

Nah, it can still work, TES has different breeding rules

If mommy was a nord, and daddy was a dunmer, the child would be a nord, not a half nord half dunmer. This is also why there are no half elves, save for bretons, but they're the result of centuries (and I stress this) of mer and men breeding in one place.

Well I guess you could consider this a bloodline, I always create the same character (as in race and name) the story line I have set for him is roughly the same throughout each game, skills may change but not by much I always set him as a main combat minor magic user. Name is Demia Enthorn a Nord, He always starts out as a kind of lawful neutral character and ends up as a chaotic evil mix. either being a vampire or werewolf.

So as the next tes is Skyrim then yeah the Nord will live again

I have one but I've never gotten to use it much outside of roleplays. I made one in the PC version of Oblivion, but I don't use her much because the PC version crashes so much.

However, my line of Khajiit, the Zeterras, go way back, and they originate in Skyrim, so this is perfect for them. My current line of them stems from one of two sisters from ages ago (My Oblivion era one is 23-24 at time of the game and she's named for her great grandmother, if that tells you anything), but the other sister had kittens I'm sure, so I think I'll make a descendant of hers for Skyrim.

Excited to actually get to PLAY one of them for once!

yup, I'll do like grandsons of my oblivion characters, each with their backstory

An imperial female, who also is an assassin and uses lots of magic. Some kid stole her sweetroll when she was a kid. She trained all her life to get revenge (and take her sweetroll back). It is said that she can stare death in the eyes, laugh, and then kill the reaper all by herself. Actually, Martin Septim is still alive to this day, as she simply stabbed Dagon so many times that he fell on the floor, lifeless. As a result, she has inherited daedric powers, and her lifespan is far longer than even elven mages. She once made a necromaner turn himself into a zombie, as she hit his so fast that his incantation hit him right as he was dying.

A big, dumb, macho nord who never, EVER wears a shirt. All he uses is heavy weapons, although SOMETIMES he can settle for a longsword and a shield. All of his life, he did nothing but fight. He was raised as a soldier, and whenever he got to a bar or an inn, he would hit on the barmaid, and that always got him into a fight. He is also well-known to spend thousands of septims getting drunk, every night! He once got 7 arrows stuck in his arm, and all he said was "man, what's that tickling... wait, arrows? pfff... archers these days..." and then proceeded to kill the said archer by making him eat his own bow, without cutting it.

A dunmer assassin who is godly with a bow. Although, no one ever saw him and lived to tell. It is a well-known story that on a cold, snowy night, every guard in the imperial city was killed by an arrow in the head, and it all happenned in less than 5 minutes. No one saw the assassin, but everyone saw the bodies. Word is that the day after, hundreds of people were murdered in Skyrim. There is only ONE person who didn't die after meeting him: a certain Millona Umbranox, who refuses to even acknowledge his existence to other people. He fell deeply in love with her, and as a result, made sure that her husband would never return home again

An arrogant, yet open-minded altmer who coud set the world on fire by a simple word. even though she is on the side of the people, everyone fears her. There's a rumor that someday. some dumb dark elf insulted her. he was found dead in his cell in the imperial city's prison, with burn marks all over his body. However, she is becoming depressed, as everyone she approaches just runs away, preventing her from ever finding what she considers a real friend. As a result, she is thinking of sacrificing herself, and taking the whole world with her

Another dunmer, a spellblade this time. It is rumored that he gets his fun out of cutting his enemies, then freezing them so that the limbs don't fall. He is a really charismatic guy though, and he gets friends almost everywhere he goes. The most common jokes in all of tamriel, well they were told by him first. Once, he was adventuring with a fellow mage, and a pack of bandits stopped them and asked for their money. at first, the plan was that he'd distract them while the mage would kill them off, but he ended up making them laugh so much, that now they are good friends and meet up very often to discuss their findings and just laugh it off.

I've made a certain bloodline for a couple of my characters, though it's pretty much been bent out of shape. There are six versions of the Daggerfall agent (five, if you count that one of them got killed by Big Stompy Robot) running around, scattered across time.
The age-immortal Nerevarine from Morrowind is essentially a reincarnation of someone who split into multiple different individuals - numbering in the trillions and unknowingly manipulating entire multiverses to their collective subconscious will. (Okay, this is just fancy talk for the fact that I can control said characters in games and change the gsme world by modding it, har har.)
The son of the Nerevarine and the original Daggerfall agent went on to bring an end to the Oblivion Crisis and mantled Sheogorath, who possibly ended up unmantling him somehow and becoming a mortal gain by the time of Skyrim.
Each of the remaining duplicates of the Daggerfall agent settled down and had an indeterminate number of children at some point after their mission.

So let's see, said bloodline currently has at least a dozen members, going all the way up to over sixty, if each of the Agent duplicates had around twelve kids. Hell, if I keep up the epic butt-f**k of a temporal/time paradox, I could make a whole army of family members.

My Arena and Daggerfall characters are related Nords. My main character in Morrowind was a relative of my main character in Oblivion, his uncle.

My Oblivion battlemage actually was in Morrowind as a down and out thief after fleeing the boredom of the ancestral home in High Rock, but he didn't do the main quest. Now, it has been 200 years after Oblivion, so he might now be dead. On the other hand, the fact that he has lost half his mind and holds the throne of the madgod makes the character somewhat less finite, but somewhat overpowered. He was basically unkillable by the end of SI.

Maybe I'll play as a Nord again, but still keep the family line. We can say the new Madgod brought Eyja through to the Isles and extended her lifespan, raising their child before sending him back on his own.



As a side note, Turns-The-Page was one of my earliest characters in Oblivion, an Argonian specialising in book theft. When I got around to playing Morrowind, I added her into the library of Vivec as an NPC intern.

I have never really done a bloodline thing, but I will be the same race I think. Unless the attrubutes have changed and the such I think I will stick to being a wood elf. I love using shortswords and bows. Does anyone know if there will be just a swordsman skill class or if there will be a longsword and shortsword skill class like in morrowind?

My character has no need of a bloodline, as he is an immortal altmer wizard. he was the eternal champion, then several years later, Uriel sent him off to daggerfall. it didn't work out so well for him because he was crushed by numidium(he can be power hungry sometimes :whistling: ), and thought dead by many. however he survived, physically and magically mangled, only to be imprisoned by Uriel, who was not happy that my character had tried to wield numidium, causing the warp in the west. So he was imprisoned for several years. Then one year the emperor hears about the nereveraine prophecies, and gives him one more chance. so he went back to morrowind, and regained his strength he had lost from years of prison and being mangled by numidium. he managed to fulfill the nereveraine prophecies, but unlike the emperor had hoped, it drove the dunmer away from the empire in the hope that the nerevaraine would banish the n'wah from morrowind. Sensing a political disaster were the nerevaraine to remain around, he had him kidnapped and reimprisoned. years later in a cruel twist of irony, the emperor passed through my characters cell. years of physical and mental torture had once again reduced him to a shell of his old power, and my character of course still bore a grudge against the emperor who had cumulatively imprisoned him close to 30 years. when an assassin leaped out of the wall to murder Uriel, my character sat back and enjoyed uriels final screams. finally, with the fall of the semptim empire, and the world no longer in imminent danger, (took care of mehrunes), he has had the oppurtunity to relax and enjoy his life for the last 200 years, no longer a slave to the empire. as to what happens in skyrim, i will have to wait to find out. :thumbsup:

Mine is the same person, name, personality, each time as well, only I roleplay he dies and reincarnates.
He usually doesnt remember his past lives until Tamriel needs saving again and he thinks the gods are either having a quiet joke with him or he is under some great doom.
His reincarnation after his death does not seem to be temporally linear, and sometimes he technically is reborn before he dies.
To his dismay, during the events of oblivion he calculated that three of him were alive somewhere in Tamriel at that point.

All he really wants is a quiet life for once, maybe studying beetles and reading books. And never ever worrying about global events or remembering his past lives.

My Ja-Kha'jay-Do are ready.

those are really some interresting stories I'm reading here. I think sometimes, they should implement a feature in which you can write your char's background. would be fun

Really? I think there is like only one transition from one game to the other that could bring you character back to an acceptable age to play. The first four games were all within the life span of Emperor Uriel Septim VII. With Oblivion he could be the same person from Morrowind if you didn't make him the Nerevarine.

I always play a Dunmer first.

My Morrowind character was Ii'sari, a Dunmer Djinn Priestess; a conjurer of spirits.
My Oblivion character was Sha'iir, sister to Ii'sari, a shadow priestess; similar to a nightblade.
My Skyrim character will be Mira'iili, the.... great-great....-great-great? granddaughter of Sha'iir. A Frost Scythe; assassins who use frost to freeze their victims from the inside out. (This is assuming we can have "classes" it seems that is not how it is going to be set up in Skyrim but ... this is what I am going for anyway.)

They do not really have a surname... they just trace their lineage by first name, through the mothers line.

I always start fresh.

Maybe their related from a distant cousin or something like that.


My Morrowind character was a Breton then I guess his older sister had a son way back and his nephew got mixed into the oblivion crisis.

After awhile through many uncles/cousin's/kin a Breton man moved to skyrim and had a son with a nord woman and BAM! Dovuhkiin.

Fernin Mal Vanche or as the nords call him......'Fernin the Vermin'.

I think I might make a family tree.

I think I'm the only person in the world who doesn't make stories for their characters. I just make them look cool and play it. I leave the character design for my fiction writing.

*mods a tail onto my spiky haired hero*

Why the hell should the Prince of all Saiyan's care about the petty battles of some backwater planet!? ... dragon's you say? ... fighting gods? ... Change of plans! All right, everyone aim their space pods for Tamriel! We'll be there in a year or so...depending on filler. But no matter, we will be there! The new Saiyan race shall take this planet as our own!

Eheh...I'll get one hand to hand combat character in there eventually My main character usually is just a random nobody though.
