Character Thread

Post » Fri Jun 22, 2012 7:16 am

I searched for the keyword "Character" and it returned 1000 results. I searched the first page of results, and saw no other threads mentioning this topic. So if I am in fact duplicating a thread, redirect me to that thread and ignore this thread.

Basically, just post your various characters and who they are

Octavian
-A male Imperial soldier who wears Imperial Heavy Armor and uses a Steel Sword and Imperial Shield in combat.

Etain
-A Breton Deathknight who is working on getting Ebony Armor and Ebony Sword and Shield, and uses Frost Spells and Conjuration Spells.

Future characters

Darien Threkk - A Nord Vampire. He fights for causes that are just to him, however. He prefers light armor (leather at the moment), and his Forsworn War-Axe "Frostfire", and his hide shield "Heartguard" carry him through most battles, but his does dabble in illusion.

He knows a basic healing spell, and has no interest in studying any other areas of magic other than Illusion.

He just became a Vampire, and as soon as he is done with his current mission in Sarthaal, he plans to feed off of his housecarl in White-run, or various evil-doers throughout the land.

He can't stand vegetables or fruit, but always grabs any meat he can. He also has not broken his drinking habit from when he was alive.

I'm doing a bit of a realist run with this guy. I've slowed time passage down and set the difficulty to master. I really have to think and plot before each battle. I'm not using any trainers, or doing any gimmicky tricks to raise my level. I craft what I need until I want something new.

Karadimas the Mad, an imperial with a strong ability with magic, but driven mad from an unusual conflict of his magic abilities and the dragonborn blood flowing thru his veins. pure mage who only wore ragged robes from the tutorial though enchanted gear to aid him. Sometimes he would fancy himself a lord and dress in fine clothes, always wearing a circlet he found just after escaping Helgen that he believed was a sign of his royalty (even wore circlet with ragged robes). Switched to Morkei mask and Arch-mage robes he saw befit his status.

Vorngar Oathbreaker, Nord who rejected the "old ways" of his father and left Skyrim to join the Empire at a young age looking for adventure. Swore to fight for the Empire, but as he grew older swore off his oath to the Empire and returned to Skyrim. Sword and board warrior using only Ancient Nord Armor and weapons.

Bronn Direhand, Redguard disowned by his family for his abilities with magic, especially the darker magics of necromancy. A Necromancer using dual wielded bound swords and raising dead thralls for allies. Wearing his own enchanted/upgraded daedric armor.

Ra, Khajiit assassin and Listener of the Dark Brotherhood. Stealth Build. No firm backstory, just wanted a khajiit assassin.

Oelrich, a Breton Battle Conjurer using his prowess with Conjuration and Destruction to adventure across the lands of the Empire.

Scorn Bloodhand, dark elf illusion assassin. His family, refugees from Morrowind, moved across the empire trying to find a place to call home. He had a natural talent with manipulating people and used it as a young child to get food for his family. After "convincing" a traveling Nord noble to give his family a large sum of money, the Nord realized the ruse he sought out and killed Scorn's family while he was away "acquiring" more food. Scorn turned his talents to crime and eventually murder to earn enough money to make it to Skyrim to seek revenge on the noble. As of yet he has not been found.

Plus about 30-40+ other characters that have mostly been deleted.

Jerian Vautrine - Breton mage, Dragonborn, Arch-Mage of the College of Winterhold.
Jerian has just completed the Main Questline, and is pondering over the return of the dragons atop the Throat of the World. He's on a temporary break.

Carla Runebreaker - Nord Thief.
She's got an obsession with gems, jewels and gold, and will go to extreme lengths to obtain them. She dual-wields daggers and wears hide armor while adventuring. Although she's a thief and dabbles in illusion and destruction magic, she's yet to join any faction.

She's fled The Reach, where she's wanted for a robbery gone wrong ...

Avaril Athera, a Dark Elf Nightblade. He specializes in Destruction magic and Restoration magic along with One-Handed blades but at heart, Avaril is a healer. He's an incredibly adept alchemist as well, supplementing his healing status.

Avaril was born to the Athera family, which comes from House Telvanni. Being that, Avaril is a gifted mage and his training with blades made him a force to be reckoned with. As a child, Avaril was pretty standard for a Telvanni prodigy. His days were filled with books and training. Avaril was an Empire loyalist from childhood and although he was taught to venerate the Empire, Avaril sees the bad part of the Empire as well.

When Avaril became older, he became deeply involved in guerrillas attacking the Thalmor right before the Great War. Avaril took a position as support medic and soon, he and his band of guerrillas caught the eyes of the Thalmor. The Thalmor had Avaril's parents, along with the rest of the guerrillas, executed.

Avaril escaped to Cyrodiil on a wagon cart and became an expert at avoiding Dominion patrols for the next three years. He heard that Skyrim was much safer, especially in regards with the Thalmor, who had slowly stopped ordering patrols to pursue him. So he ventured there, wanting to start a new life.

Name: Ra'vash
Race: Khajiit
Skills: One-handed, Sneak, Archery, Alchemy, Light Armor, Speech, Lockpicking, Pickpocket
Background: Hailing from his homeland, Ra'vash left his people in pursuit of a life of adventure and fortune. So far, he hasn't found his fortune but he has found plenty of adventure. His tale continues.

Name: Ranulf Iron-Brand
Race: Nord
Skills: One-Handed, Block, Smithing, Two-Handed, Heavy Armor, Archery
Background: His father and his father before him were renown Blacksmiths in Skyrim for a time. While Ranulf was very young, his father moved him and his family off with the Imperial Legion so he might better serve the Legion as both a Legionnaire and a Blacksmith. Thus, Ranulf grew up wanting to follow in his father's footsteps. After the White Gold Concordat was put into place, Ranulf's father soon perished via illness and his mother swiftly after. Thus, Ranulf then left the Legion, ashamed for what had transpired and made for Skyrim, to pursue a life of adventure and glory.

Name: Avel Drovayn (In Progress)
Race: Dunmer (Dark Elf)
Skills: One-Handed, Archery, Alchemy, Lockpicking, Light Armor, Sneak, Pickpocket
Background: Once hailing from a family that served a noble family back in Morrowind as a small group of individuals that were gifted in both politics and subterfuge, it was here that the House of Drovayn made their name. Once Morrowind fell into disarray however, they were no longer needed and the family was scattered to the wind. Avel took it upon himself to find his calling somewhere else and was led to Skyrim. After a chance encounter with a young boy in Windhelm and a sure-footed, though cold-hearted woman, his path took a much 'darker' turn.

Name: Oryn Drovayn
Race: Dunmer
Skills: Destruction, Illusion, Restoration, Alteration, Alchemy, Conjuration, Enchanting
Background: The brother of Avel Drovayn, he parted ways with his sibling at the border of Skyrim and stuck out for his own. His interest in the Arcane Arts and specifically the darker arts has lead him down the path of Necromancy. As his power grows, so does the sky darker over Skyrim.

Name: Calanir
Race: High Elf (Altmer)
Skills: Destruction, Alchemy, Restoration, Alteration, Illusion, Conjuration, Enchanting
Background: A wandering scholar and Mage, Calanir had made it his life's work to learn the lore of the land, and in turn find power through knowledge. He is eager to enroll in the College of Winterhold, though he is sure he will learn nothing, as his goal is to simply gain access to the vast archives that are housed there.

My Bosmer battle mage Hellbishop. Loves to crispy fry with a flame spell or chill to the bone with a cold spell anything that stands in his way. For a more close up personal touch he indulges in one handed weapons especially swords and axes. When feeling extra inspired with rage he indulges in his two handed delight of a hefty warhammer to bust em open like ripe watermelons. If hungry he'll practice his cannibalistic side where truly he becomes one with his fallen foe forever more-

He is also into alot of reading especially when it comes to obscure and bizzare subject matter. His intense passion of dungeon exploration compliments this and his other writing endevours.

Krokrull destroyer of all that stands before him. Unfortunately he has learned to show some restraint in his destroying ways due to killing an employee or two when filled with a uncontrollable psychotic homicidal mind oblitering BLOOD RAGE!!!! RRRAGGGHHHH!!!!

Still developing the story on this one. Not to sure to make her a mothering b-movie warrior six goddess or a cold calculating ambush the fleeing villagers with a rock avanlache upon the road assassin type. Thus far i've given her the name Salus Hygeia

race: dunmer
lvl: 46
skills: enchant, alchemy, destruction, illusion, one hand, sneak, archery, illusion& conjuration.

hes a assasin who relies on illusion and uses necromancy quite alot. also quite useful with a bow and his trusty dagger...

after red mountain exploded and the argonians invaded dreldas had no choice but to leave morrowind and head to skyrim...

he later becomes a vampire. i want him to be a volkihar so its all about frost side in destruction but hes got all the flame side maxed out :( think im gonna have to start again tonight....

Name: Bellator
Age: 32
Race: Imperial
Build: Warrior
Main Skills: One-Handed, Block, Heavy Armour, Alchemy, Smithing

Don't have a very big back story on this one... I use him for Main Quest, Companions and he has sided with the Empire. Loves a fight, is passionate about his Imperial background and his views on the Civil War. Is married to the pretty lass from Shor's Stone, forgot her name >__>


Name: Albus Dumbledore
Race: Breton
Age: 94
Build: Mage
Main Skills: Destruction, Restoration, Conjuration, Alteration, Enchanting

(Pretty much pretending the whole opening sequence never happened for this characater :tongue:)

Albus was exiled from Skyrim to an island in the far North, at the edge of the world, for 50 years, after an incident at the College of Winterhold left 4 of his comrades dead. He has returned after serving his sentence, hoping to make amends for his crimes. He is an extremely gentle and humble man, who will fight only in defence of his life or another's.
He was an incredibly powerful, yet brash and big-headed wizard in his youth, able to yield destructive powers far beyond the capability of most mages of the world, and was next in line for Arch Mage. Among his comrades was a young Savos Aren, one of the apprentices present at the time of the incident.
Albus was teaching some young wizards the fundaments of destruction magic. Another powerful wizard, although not as skilled as Albus (but equally as egotistical) chose to criticize his teaching methods. The ensuing argument led to a terrible duel between the two, which Albus won after firing a tremendous energy blast which killed the other mage instantly; unfortunately, it also killed 3 of the students he was teaching, and thus was the crime which left him with 2 choices: death by beheading, or 50 years exile. Albus chose exile, feeling guilty of what he had done, and knowing that death and peace in Sovngarde would not be adequate punishment for such a deed.
Since returning to Skyrim, his powers have waned greatly, due to his choice not to use them during his exile. He is still quite powerful, also able to summon creatures such as Atronachs, and use defensive Alteration magic in tricky situations. He has also returned to the College, where he hopes to redeem himself by helping to uncover the mysteries of the Eye of Magnus.


Name: Selene
Race: Redguard
Age: 26
Build: Assassin
Main Skills: Sneak, Archery, One-Handed, Light Armour, Pickpocket

Selene grew up as a slave's daughter in Sentinel, Hammerfell. From a very early age, she was used for sixual favours and also slavery, like her father (when Selene was 4, her mother was beaten to death by guards for stealing food).
Her father was a trained Alik'r assassin in his younger days, and in secret, taught Selene everything he had learned, in the hopes that she could one day use it to escape her living Hell. He knew he could not use these skills himself in his aging and weakened body. When Selene was 19, their master ran a knife through her father's chest after he told the man that their supply of ale had run out. In an act of fury, Selene jumped across the room with great agility and speed, and before he could flinch, she had broken his neck in two. Taking the long knife from her father's chest and vowing revenge, she moved through the Palace like a shadow, just as her father had taught her, and silently slaughtered every resident.
After her work was done, she escaped and lived for 6 years in the street, eating and drinking stolen meals, every now and then moving to a different part of the city to avoid detection from unfriendly eyes, and only ever moving at night.
On one morning, she saw a convoy of carriages pull into the market, and overheard one of the merchants speaking of crossing the border to Skyrim. Sensing this as her opporutnity for true freedom, she stole into one of the carriages and stayed there, perfectly still and silent, for 8 days, as the carriages made their long journey across Hammerfell to the border of Skyrim.
After entering the province, she leapt from the carriage and moved swiftly into the woods, hoping to hunt and find shelter, so as to plan her next move. This mistake resulted in her capture by the Imperial Legion, who were waiting for the Stormcloaks, and she happened to be in the wrong place.
After her escape from Helgen, Selene has begun to make a living performing tasks for the Thieve's Guild, and is currently on her way to Windhelm, following rumours of a strange boy calling upon an assassin for a malicious deed...

Sorry for the length, I like to be descriptive :biggrin:

Bunch of old ones I got bored with and deleted, mostly due to sloppy/cliche'd concepts. Latest one is a ancient Breton vampire who recently "awoke" (or in other words I just made 'em). So far it's been pretty fun skulking around at night trying to find people to use as munchies. I use a vampire mod that adds quite a few penalties if I don't feed regularly and it also makes the sun deadly rather than inconvenient so it's been a unique experience thus far.

Name: Baldwin Planatagenet
Race: Breton
Class: Breton Knight
Skills: Alteration, One-handed, Block, Heavy Armor, Destruction

May add an in-depth description later if I feel like it.
