Name - Fjrokvar Cloud-Seeker


Race - Nord


Class - Warrior / True Nord


Backstory - A Nord who's tale is that of revenge and of purpose. He searches tirelessly around the land of Skyrim to find the ones responsible for his wife's and his sons slaughter in a raid on his small hamlet not far from Windhelm. It was burnt to the ground, his entire world taken from him. As constant a reminder as the scars on his face. All he knows is one name that keeps coming up the more he searches: Forsworn.


Role play/faction choice - This character is played exactly as it sounds: a True Nord. I use all skills listed within the Nord's racials, so two handed, one handed, block, light armour, smithing and speech.


As the above suggests, a lot of time is spent finding and taking down the Forsworn. No magic, food and cooking used only to replenish health. He carries a pickaxe with him to mine ore and uses pelts from the animals in the world to further smithing.


The Companions is a must... he's a True Nord after all... and the certain way the quest line goes is a good role playing point as a test to his True Nordic ways! The main quest is also a must... for this True Nord discovers himself to be more than just a man on a mission. He is THE man, and he is on THE mission... as he finds he is the Last Dragonborn.

I'm new at this sort of thing, but I thought I'd have some fun and have a go at it. Be gentle.


Name:

Fizzle


Race:

Khajiit


Class:

Ranger


Backstory:

What little is known of this particular khajiit is both fragmentary and not altogether reliable. In fact there are no records of his birth or parentage. He is believed to have first shown up in the Elsweyrian city of Orcrest under the name Sylvan Traitor, a most un-khajiiti moniker. There he joins the Khaj Eshiita, a band of talented rangers who patrol the wildlands around the city in an effort to keep peace and enforce law. He quickly makes a name for himself with his natural finesse with a bow and his talent for the telling of tall tales about his supposed childhood.


None among his fellow Khaja took these childhood accounts seriously, as they were oft to be fanciful and contradictory. They were, however, most entertaining, and many were recorded by his good friend and notorious fable spinner M'aiq.


In one such tale Sylvan asserts with uttermost sincerity that he saved an entire village from the ravages of the Thrassian Plague by piling all the people into a single cart and singlehandedly marching them out of Elsweyr and into the relative safety of Cyrodiil. There he nursed each and every one of his fellow countrymen back to full health. A preposterous tale, of course, not least because the Thrassian Plague occurred in the First Era. But such were Sylvan's tales.


After growing tired of serving with the Khaj Eshiita he dips out of recorded history for almost ten years. That is until someone matching his description turns up in the town of Chorrol in the company of the enigmatic master thief Shishiika. Almost immediately the town is beset by a spree of high profile burglaries including, most bizarrely, the Counts throne and every single painting in the castle.


When Shishiika vanishes from both Chorrol and the history books, the town guard promptly arrest Sylvan, who now adamantly insists upon being called Imperious Whiteflower, for the spate of thefts. He neither confirms or denies his involvement in these crimes, and is promptly thrown in jail.


There he stays for six days, without complaint, and ingratiates himself with his jailer by recounting many of his tall tales. On the seventh day he is gone, and no khajiit matching his description is ever seen in Cyrodiil again.


Seventeen years pass.


There's civil war in Skyrim, and an Imperial patrol happen upon a most unusual sight near Fort Neugard. Coming down the mountain trail before them is a lean, dark-furred khajiit and six reanimated chickens following on behind him. As he is questioned, one guard spies a trail of dark red blood splayed against the snow further up the path. Upon investigation six bodies, both men and mer, are found most brutally murdered upon the mountainside. The khajiit neither confirms or denies his involvement in this crime.


And so he is arrested and brought before the chopping block in Helgen. When the soldier asks his name, "You may call me Fizzle" he says, "and I have most pressing business in Skyrim."

Gorgoroth


Orc


Tank. Ebony armor with Orcish boots, gauntlets and helm. 2H.



He's a continuation of my last character on the previous version. Dude rolls out of his stronghold because he finds life a constant routine that has become boring. His father and uncle have all spent time in the open world and fought countless battles while he sits around practicing......for what? His father is the chieftain and he will one day take his place. Not today.



He left home to experience the world around him. If he is to one day lead, he needs to know how the rest of the world works. Off he goes in search of adventure and glory for Malacath before he must return home.



He fought along with the Empire and stood with the Dawnguard. He was then told that he's Dragonborn and it seems that many are depending on him to do something about these dragons. Like what? How is a mortal to combat such a thing? However, after speaking with the Greybeards, challenge accepted.



Each of my characters tend to have a trait or a quirk about them that is different than other characters. For example, this guy absolutely loves apples. No apples are left behind. I imagine he just throws a whole one into his maw and chows down. He will go out of his way to a settlement while traveling if he is out. Everything stops until the craving has been managed.



Must. Have. Apples.
