im not sure if any of you have gone as indepth as i did with my character (im guessing yes) but i not only created the character and his skills, but recently also created a history of him.

his name is Tyler Ravenwing. he is a self made race (they go by the name of preytoris, strong in both magic and combat) and his stories are ledgendary (to me anyway, got TES recently and kinda went overboard on the creative side)

he fought in the recent great war under contract with the imperial legion. he was commander of the legion who now reside in pelagiad. he was a great strategist and was never defeated in battle.

to cut an extreamly long story short he eventually realised that the imperial legion was not protecting the land he was fighting for, but were invading it. he realised the error of his ways and switched sides and began to aid the native people but not even his great strategic (sp) mind was enough to reverse the inevitable outcome of the war. he was captured and sentenced to death by the imperial legion but on the night before his execution. he summoned a deadra in his image and escaped the prison. (so much for cutting a long story short)

so back to the topic, i'd like to hear the backgrounds of your characters, im interested to see not only how indepth people go with character creation but also to see how your mind works when it comes to these issues.

but if im the only one sad enough to go this far, we need more people in the world like me! (damn that would be a bad place to live!!)

Honestly, we need you over here.

However, that's a good backstory. Does it flow with how you play the game? I mean, do you play honorably, avoid thievery and generally want people to like you?

my *ahem* character is a nord by the name of Nickleback (nick-ul-back) is at the grand age of 47 an is a retired war leader.

he comes from Skyrim and fought in lot of battles and one most of them, before cutting off his beard and coming to live in Vvardenfell. Skyrim! He is now head of the Imperial Legion, Patriach of the Temple, Head of Hlaalu, Archmage of the Mages Guild and bandit of the Thieves Guild (im working on it)

There should be morre people like u

i do play my character as he would act, he is honourable, couragous, intelegent and above all hates imperials (which allows me to vent the flustration of a none theif character by slaying imperial guard hehehe)

i would like to have told you his whole background but i would take far to long and you would have a long white beard by the time you finished reading it (even if your female!)

At the risk of sounding out of touch, what does 'nickleback' mean? Is there some kind of hidden slang within the band and forum member's name?

Oh, my character ran a black market syndicate in the Summerset Isles. After killing off the leaders of rival conglomerates, he was eventually tracked down and imprisoned.

one small question for dreamoftherood...

what the hell is that link, i clicked it and got some strange i love bees thingy and some confusing popup, can you give a lost guy a little help?

It all started when Nuryn Terano went to the market in the Imperial city. His wife, brother, and kids were attacked by a imperial noble and his men. His wife Ranis, and Brother Muryn were killed,His kids captured. When he got home he went on a rampage killing the nobles men, some excaped with the kids but the noble was slautered. He ran away, he didnt know where but he ran. after 2 days he as captured and beat half to death. All that night he had nightmares about giants with gold masks and stupid stuff. He was going to be executed but somehow he excaped, and made a deal with the emperor. He somehow agreed. He left for Morrowind. Once he got to his Homeland he joined the temple and became an ordinator worshiping the false Tribunal in his grief, he now resides in forgein quarter canton of Vivec, Wondering if hes more than an ordinator

My charater is a mighty Paladin, he once lived in cyrodil city but was arrested for stealing from a noble and giving to a pauper, he was mysteriously sent to morrowind, where he discovered he was to be the dark elven hero nerevar. He now hunts for rare treasure and leads assaults on the sixth house and all who would defile his land.

My character <a VERY mean, no good, stealing...etc> wood elf, was in fact inspired by a poem i wrote...
The poem is kinda short, but I dont think I need to put it on here unless someone just *has* to see it...
She is currently level 41, and has killed almost all the NPC's in the game <one save.> On another save she just got chameleon and stole everything she could find, and on another she did almost all the quests.

It's SO fun to be a wood elf

My charcter a aragoinan bladerunner story is cool.
In the black marsh he trained to become a bladerunner for13 years
then one day a dunmer slave kepper came and him and his motehr as slaves for 1 year waited untill he saw his mother get killed by the slave keeper then killed the slave keeper and freed himself.

Edit: Rewriting cracters story

Im sandy a dunmer vampire i just thought id look in the tomb for a place to sleep walked up to the vampireshut the door for realism and i got infected pretty borin intit

I have a hard time even coming up with a name let alone a background, the best i did was a wood elf female, made a custum class Elven Enchantress. For the name i looked in the Silmerilian and found Aina, meaning holy ,and Curu meaning skill. and so named her Ainacuru. Her background, she's a slut, she'll do anything for some skooma or moonsugar. Got in trouble and enslaved by the empire and sent by boat to Seyda Neen.

My main character is an orc weaponmaster.

The wood elf assassin Styx grew up in the streets of a moderately-sized town just south of Cyrodil, where he quickly learned that, in order to survive, he must look after Number One, and to hell with the rest. While never becoming formally aligned with the local Thieves Guild, he picked up a good many tricks through observation, dramatically improving his ability to blend into the background in the process.

He also learned to defend himself, becoming proficient with ranged weapons and a short sword at an early age, by befriending a retired assassin who had once been an instructor in the Blades. He later killed his teacher to prove to himself that he had learned his lessons well.

One day, when quietly observing a TG Master robbing the house of a local noble, he found himself caught in the surveillance of Imperial Agents investigating a political plot that the noble was part of. His position was also spotted by the TG, and after he narrowly escaped the Imperials, the Guild tracked him down and recruited him to travel to the City and investigate the plot further, as several high-ranking TG Masters also seemed implicated.

On arrival in the City, Styx began playing both sides off against each other, nicely lining his pockets as he did so. In the course of his double-dealing, he uncovered the real truth about the plot, and offered to sell the Empire his information.

He was, of course, totally ignored by the arrogant Imperial Agents, so he sneaked into the Palace and confronted the Emperor in his private chambers. The Emperor was suitably impressed with his skills in solving the puzzle, and also with the ease with which he had managed to get into the palace, and thought to himself that he could certainly use this young wood elf in future.

When the events on Vvardenfell began taking a turn for the worse, the Emperor ordered Styx arrested on a false charge (though Styx was definitely guilty of everything from petty theft to premeditated murder by that time!) and had him sent to investigate. The secrecy with which the Emperor did this was an indication of his insecurity about the events both on Vvardenfall, and in Cyrodil, as he felt that it was difficult to trust anyone. Styx would have to make his own decisions once he got there and discovered the true story of his arrest. Perhaps the Emperor felt that in a no-win situation, Styx would make the best of a bad lot and get the job done.

As it turned out, the Emperor's intuition (or desperation) was correct, and Styx managed to wipe out every last trace of evil on the Island. Leaving only himself ;)

I feel that the Emperor took a terrible risk using Styx, as the wood elf is not exactly the most reliable person. He has been known to help others in distress, but on closer inspection, it is obvious that he does so only when there is something in it for him. Not naturally altruistic, there are deeper motives to any of his seeming acts of kindness. I suggest that if you ever come across this young wood elf, never turn your back on him . . .

Errm, my character is a necromancer, he can summon most forms of undead and is armed with a small dagger and a staff. He wears a black hooded robe and cape, with a steel helm under the hood. He was arrested for summoning a large force of skeleton warriors when he killed his brother (a light wizard) in Cyrodil and was deported to Vvardenfell. He now lives in a tower that I made outside Balmora, and is wanted by the Ordinators after he wore their armour just to annoy 'em. Nice chap.

My character is a dark elf called Falcon. He is an assassin. He was a pirate, after the death of his parents and big brother, but he was young and weak (but an excellent navigator), and the pirates treated him bad. He escaped from them at a port, but having no money he chose to steal food. He was caught by a mage, who cut his right eye out as a punishment. So he lives now for the chance of vengeance. He wants to grow strong to go back and teach the mage a lesson. That's why he joins every faction (except thieves guild - for obvious reason) and wanders around the world...
(I'm level 73 now, with all m&m skills at 100)
But it's a 6 pages long story on my home pc....

hey, my guy is called falcon too!! i am a assassin, but an assassin of random and rich people

my family are all dead... i killed them all!!

i was on my way to the next city to destroy with my band of thieves and assassins, when we were ambushed by the guards. only-she-runs-there (one of my comrades) had alerted the guards thanks to a big fat bribe. as always, we used our enchanted objects, incredible skill and superior minds to temporarily escape to the top of a guard tower, and block the trap door with Factaroth (one of our main beserkers) who was waaaaay to heavy to lift. however, the guards had waited us out. we ran out of supplies. with my quick witted interlect, i pick-pocketed my tribe of all of their valuables. a war had broke out among us. everyone was trying to get me. i knew i couldn't keep them off of me without a plan. i simply laid down the very heavy flag, walked along it like a tightrope, and walked and jumped off of the edge. my men had all chased me over the edge of the tower. i had used a levitation amullet, to stand upside down on the flagpole, leaving my tribe to fall to my death. it sickened me that it had come to this, but what had to be done, had to be done. i slowfalled my way to the guards, they instantly had me on the floor. i paid up all of the loot that me and the boys had taken over the years, and all of their gold. not even our 70k worth of stuff was enough to clear my name, so i was imprisoned on a boat, and taken to a distant land so all of my victims could rest safe in the knowledge that i was supposedly dead, along with my tribe. i had spent so long on that boat, that most, if not all of my skills had decreased to 0. it was time to start all over again. now wary that they can be traitorous, i try to avoid relationships, friends, and even contact other than from monsters. wary of what it did, i joined Larrius Varro and vowed to stop corruption, make amends for my past, and to avenge my tribes shameful death

My charactor is Scarlette the Easy formerly known as Scarlette the Overly Chaste. She was unhappily married to a clansman in the northern country. One terrible night she was drinking Matze and smoking Skooma when her husband caught her in bed with annother man. Outraged Scarlette's husband draged her before the councel and they banished her to the wolves.

Scarlette being rather intelegent managed to survive the wolves and the wastelands and made it to Cyradil. Having no real employable skills Scarlette turned her mistake into a career and became a prostitute in the capitol city. It wasnt long before the guards caught up with her and lo and behold she was on the boat to Morrowind.

Scarlette's first thought after getting through the census and excise office was "now what town do I take over?" and so she made enough money and worked on her skills enough to enable her to assault Molag Mar. Now the undesputed ruler of Molag Mar. Scarlette the Easy has become quite the power hungry individual indeed. She now quietly is taking over Morrowind for herself evry faction she joins soon fall to her leadership. Every enemy falls to her dart. And soon she plans on gaining her ultamate achevement of stealing Vivec's verry soul!

FREE BLACK MARSH

I hav a long and nerdy story:



Lord Vaylack was a nobles child in a foreign land. While he was safe with his mother and sister in Rosethorn Hall. His Father and brothers were in Black Marsh Fighting off the slave traders from Morrowind. One day one of his brothers came back with dreadful news his father had fallen to a stray arrow, and his oldest brother was captured. Three months later when his brother was about to be crowned the Lord of the Black Marsh he was killed by bandits. Young Vaylack became the only free son and was now Lord Vaylack. He has vowed to hunt down and kill the bandits that killed his brother and the slave traders that killed his father and enslaved his oldest brother. Now in the Province of Cyrodiil he is a legend as an Argonian who was kind and helped all in need, But was twisted with revenge in a bloodthirst that will never be satisfied until those men are brought to justice, His justice.
