Just wondering on yours :) I'm a High Elf who got into debt with a violent sailor in Anvil. I then fled unable to defend myself, towards Bruma. I'd heard of the civil war in Skyrim, and thought it would be a perfect place to hide. On the journey to Bruma I was attacked by a group of particularly bloodthirsty bandits, and taken to their camp. As we arrived at their camp nearby, I feared the worst. They had another captive bound to a tent pole, binding me to the other a few feet away. They returned to their campfire and mead. While they were drinking, the other captive, a fellow Altmer spoke. She spoke calmly, but of only one thing; Magic. She said she sensed a power in me, but before she could say anything else, one of the bandits untied her and dragged her to the campfire, killing her. Suddenly I felt a rage build up, ripping free of my bonds as a surge of power flew from me to her corpse, bringing life to her body. she killed them all with fire from her hands, then dissolving to ashes. I fled towards skyrim. When I reached the border, I was captured by what I assumed was imperials. We reached a small city, as I was in line for the headsmans block, a dragon attacked. I escaped in the confusion. I ventured round a small mountain range as I discovered a small, purple tree, with two giants nearby. I used the tap in the side to harvest a vial of the tree sap, as it looked curious. Inside a nearby cave I found a body, and a note stating a woman named ysolda in white run is looking to buy it. I travelled there, spoke to her, and agreed to supply her with it. Until I make enough money to master the arts of magic. that's my 4th play through :)

Uh. Well. My Wood Elf was bound by a magic spell after her parents living in Valenwood broke a contract with a Thalmor, which made her stuck in a kind of child-like feverish dream and makes her unable to reason things as an advlt, even as she grows into early advlthood. Frustrated by the fact that she's not as "smart" as everyone else, she goes to Skyrim in search of the Altmer sorcerer who made her this way, trying to sneak into the college at Winterhold in hopes of finding him/her there. Quite a shock to turn out Dragonborn.

I envision her with a more wondrous and naive disposition. http://i894.photobucket.com/albums/ac141/ironmask_album/thalmorkills.png

Your character's nice. Haha. Definitely better-thought-out than mine.
