After completing Dark Souls four times, I kinda wanted a character like a character from that game. The picture of him is a character called Big Hat Logan on it. I love the look of him so I did base it around him somewhat.Mozza444 said:

Background story: born and raised in cyrodil in skingrad where his father owned a genral goods store and his mother worked with magic. while growing up he was often called a trouble maker by the town guard and for good reason often stealing goods from stores in the town but never doing anything worse then that. He often got out of trouble as he was in good favour of the count of skingrad due to his silver tongue. when he reached the age of 18 he traveled around cyrodil for a year where he gained skill in archery but settled down in the imperial city at 19.
once there he quickly became known in imperial city for hes unfortunate habit of thievery as well as his smooth talking and due to this he came to the attention and quickly joined the thieves guild where he rose through the ranks becoming a highly rated thieve in the guild. by the time he hit 22 he was doing jobs for high profile clients including the gray fox and had never been caught. In the time between the ages of 19 and 24 he has become a a skilled archer with much confidence in his shot (though he dose carry two blades with him in case of close combat but he lacks skill with these)and most notably over his 5 years with the thieves guild he has become a great thief with great skill in both sneaking and pick pocketing.
He has recently taken a period of leave from the theives guild and has traveled to Elsweyr origonaly due to monetary prospects but has now been contacted to met someone who is looking for skilled individuals origonaly unintrested hes interest perked up when he was told of rewrds which he would be most intrested in.

special talent: Unnoticed: once a day he can steal one thing from anyone or anywhere with half the chance of being noticed. (this includes allys).

Name: Ygdra
Age: 46
Race: Dunmer
Gender: Male
Appearance: Tall for an elf with a very dark complexion. Keeps his jet black hair in a mohawk and his face clean shaven but covers it in white warpaint. His left ear was sliced off about halfway along it's length.
Abilities (magic/fighting style): Battlemage. Fights in heavy armor and feels most comfortable with a longsword in hand. Specializes in fire-type destruction magic.
Background Story: Born in the Imperial City, he joined the Mage's College at a 22 years. Here he showed equal interest in swordsmanship and destruction magic and quickly became one of the Arcane University's battlemages. He showed much promise but many noticed his erratic behavior during fights. At 32, his love for fire took it's dearest toll. During a mission rooting out rogue mages, he lost himself in his pyromania resulting in the deaths of two fellow battlemages as well as severely injuring another. The target mages managed to escape. He was imprisoned for his actions, being deemed too dangerous: a threat to the public as well as his colleagues. He underwent correctional training during his sentence and was recently released. The College refuses to take him back still fearing what he might do so he has traveled to Elsweyr to seek a living as a mercenary in the turmoil.
Personality: Often quiet and reserved but do not mistake that for being aloof or cold-hearted. He is kind person who doesn't mind helping out strangers in need and prefers to do what he finds morally "right." However, he feels truly alive during a fight and loves nothing better than the sound of the dying screams of his enemies as they fall before his fire spells and blade.
Profession: Ex-Battlemage of the Mage's Guild, currently a free-lance mercenary
Special talent: Pyromaniac: The very sight of fire enthralls you and your ability to focus on it increases temporarily. The next fire spell you cast does extra (3d6) fire damage. A miss roll results in hitting an ally (person above you).
I assume we need a set of our own dice?

We'll be doing the RP in a user group I think, and user groups have a dice function so we'll be using that. Wen or I will explain how to use it.8a88leph1sh said:

And for anyone else thinking of making a sheet, or since we have a lot of sheets, some might want to edit them so they're not similar to others, and in my view even gender can be considered similar in a way since we've got a ton of males.
If this is still open I present to you my character.
Mindful of your previous post and that there are several battlemages in the RP already, I came up with a more traditional mage.

Name: Alderis Valandil
Age: 73
Race: Altmer
Gender: Male
Appearance: Average height (for a high elf) with pale yellow eyes. His complexion however is darker then the norm and often soot stained. He likes to keep his blond hair short after an incident with an experimental flame spell (don?t ask). Equipment wise the only real items of interest are his robes and the amulet, both of which he has enchanted. (Robes of Destruction, black slightly singed robes with increased magica regen and reduction in destruction spell cost enchantments. Culexus Amulet, a simple silver medallion with a ruby roughly in the middle and enchanted with spell resistance.)
Abilities (magic/fighting style): ALOT of Destruction spells of all types and forms, some Conjuration consisting of summoning and a bit in the other schools. He also has some knowledge of enchanting, mainly involving resistances and magica although.
Background Story: In his youth, Alderis openly questioned the Aldmeri?s conservative and hidebound ways. Like all disadents of that time, he was quickly banished to Valenwood. Cut off from ?proper civilisation? he would have perished but luckily he was brought in by a friendly Bosmer family. Over time he adopted many of the customs of his adopted culture from eating the flesh of the dead to smoking caterpillars. (However archery and woods lore were forever beyond him.) With the increase in Kajiit attacks in 395, Alderis joined up with a newly formed mercenary group that was hoping to be ?first in? on any conflict that would erupt. At the end of the Five Year War Alderis Valandil, one of the few original members of the ?Backburners? parted ways with his comrades with a vastly expanded spell library and a hatred for Khajiit. He now looks east in search of something (preferably with fur) to burn, or freeze, or electrocute.
Personality: Due to leaving the Summerset Isles at a young age, Alderis lacks the superiority complex that defines his race. Instead he has more in common with the Bosmer who adopted him, resulting in a very ?direct? personality. If he doesn?t like you he WILL tell you, even if you are a massive orc warrior. This straightforwardness continues to his basic combat style which boils down to:
1) Identify target.
2) Summon distraction.
3) Nuke target with spells.
4) Repeat steps 3 (and occasionally 2 if summon is dispelled) until the target is dead.
Due to his participation in the Five Year War he has a particular dislike of Khajiit and will always activate a flame cloak or similar spell in combat, having seen many of his fellow mages killed by assassins sneaking up from behind. Fending off these attacks has also given him some skill with the spell ?Bound Blade.? Alderis still practices many of the traditions of the Bosmer such as eating of the slain and not harming plant life, however the years in the Backburners have tempered his devotion to them. The intense fear of the undead and necromancy is still strong.
Profession: Ex-mercenary mage.
Special talent: Overload!
Once a day you can cast a Destruction school spell at double the cost, resulting in the spell effects being doubled (damage, range, duration). After using this ability you will not be able to cast ANY spell for several turns.

If this is still open of course, here's my submission.
Name: Lo'Rune
Age: 36
Race: Khajiit
Gender: Female
Appearance: Slightly short, 5 foot 7, her fur is white with streaks of brown, and a black patch over her right eye. She has bright, icy blue feline eyes, short and sharp ears and a striped tail. She wears the robes of a scholar, complete with leather satchel full of books. Her cloak has a weather beaten hood that can be attached if need be. She also carries a (magic related) staff with a steel tip that has given many competing scholars a nasty bruise, or worse. Her claws are usually retracted, though she is missing her index claw on her left hand.
Abilities (magic/fighting style): Usually preferring to avoid combat, she is well schooled in restoration and alteration, and can cast many an illusion with her staff. Her claws provide her with an effective melee if need be, but she would rather protect and heal others.
Background Story: Lo'Rune was raised in a small village in Elsweyr, where her father ran a small healing stall from home. While he tended to mercenaries, skooma addicts and the sick, she would run around with her small box of bandages, trying to patch up those in line. While this may have irritated the customer, her father was impressed with her enthusiasm, and began slipping her the odd book or two on healing and alchemy. Rejecting physical concoctions, she began to practice her healing on her fathers patients at the age of 15, and eventually became his partner. Though she eventually got tired of her small village, and packed only a few books and clothes and became a traveling healer. She acquired her staff and robes from a dying mage she found alone in the woods. She found him with an arrow in his stomach, and while tending to him as best as she could, he simply thanked her for the kindness shown to him, and passed on. She has never forgotten him, nor her fathers practice, and now simply wishes to help those in need.
Personality: She is extremely kind-hearted, and has a soft-spot for those who are injured. However, inside her is the primal feisty nature of a Khajiit. She tends to be skeptical of most men, having been approached from an early age by all manner of dealers and sell-swords. Her duty to help those tends to lead to being caught up in large schemes, but her natural intelligence has managed to keep her tail well and truly fixed to her body.
Profession: Travelling healer.
Special talent: Hand of Life
Once a day she is able to channel her power into a wounded friend, fully restoring their health at the cost of her magika reserves.

Name: Zavier Martres
Age: 26
Race: Imperial
Gender: Male
Appearance: Somewhat taller than the average imperial with dark hair and green eyes. Rather lean all around. Typically wears a black coat trimmed with silver, but will wear light armor if the situation calls for it. Carries a black, silver-topped cane that, upon closer inspection, is a potent lightning staff. He has only one piece of jewelry, a silver ring on his left hand with the symbol of a soaring raven. No one knows what, if any, properties it possesses.
Abilities: Zavier is a master of illusion magic, able to deceive his foes into doing what he wants. In combat he prefers to stay in the shadows, outside the line of fire, and wait for an opportunity to take down an opponent with one quick strike. However, he boasts a talent for magic as well, well skilled in alteration and conjuration as well as illusion making him quite versatile. A shrewd businessman and negotiator, Zavier is usually able to bring people around to his way of thinking with his silver tongue.
Back Story: Zavier grew up in the Imperial City. He was poor, but his family was able to eke by well enough, usually. This didn't satisfy the young boy, though, and at a young age he began looking for ways to rise above his station in life. He quickly started an apprenticeship with one of the eminent merchants in the city, Galtrin Drake. Galtrin, a self-made man himself, sympathized with the young, ambitious boy and taught Zavier everything he knew. Within a few years, Zavier had become an accomplished wordsmith and, his master also being an associate of the Thieves' Guild, a fair spy. However, Zavier's dreams still went further. After finishing his apprenticeship he applied to the Arcane University, where he threw himself into the work of becoming a master of magic. An enthusiastic student, Zavier quickly mastered the basic concepts of several arcane schools and steadily became more proficient in using them. Several years later, finishing up his studies at the university, Zavier left the Imperial City to go out and seek his own fortune.
Personality: Serious, cynical and sarcastic, and cunning. Zavier learned growing up that he was in competition with everyone and they were in competition with him. He has no time for those he doesn't see as worthy opponents. Despite this, he is rather reliable to those few he considers his friends.
Profession: Adventurer, Businessman.
Special Talent: Relentless- for several turns if an attack (of his, obviously) connects, Zavier is able to attack again.

There were in Morrowind but could not be summoned, but there seems to have been a great number of archers applying after me.

Name: Rorruk the Iron-Willed
Age: 34
Race: Nord
Gender: Male
Appearance: A humble but not hideous appearance; muscular but not particularly large for a Nord. He has Blonde hair, is clean shaven and has brown eyes. He wears a heavy suit of steel plate armour that appears quite heavy. He has a mysterious deep scar in his side that, while healed, indents grotesquely.
Abilities (magic/fighting style): He uses a steel spear primarily, with a steel sword for situations in which the spear is broken or the enemy is too close. A reinforced steel shield is used in addition to either weapon in order to bolster defence. He takes advantage of the length of the spear to attack enemies first. He does not use magic. While his weapons are fairly unimpressive themselves, he has dedicated his life to becoming a great warrior and this gives him amazing talent on the battlefield.
Background Story: Rorruk was born on a small farm in Skyrim, near Solitude, in the year 366 of the Third Era. He had a fairly uneventful life, becoming a soldier and later a drunkard. During the War of the Bend'r-mahk, he and his family immigrated to Cyrodiil to protect their children. He later saved the emperor from an insane, knife wielding person in the streets of the imperial city. He was given the honour of being made a member of the Blades. He has dedicated his life to the service of his noble faction and is now on a secret mission to discover information about the skooma trade in Elsweyr.
Personality: Serious, but not rude. He is a straightforward person and prefers to be honest. He is more likely to get into a fight than do something sneaky. He is prejudiced against the use of magic, believing physical hardship to be more honourable. As far as religion goes, he is partial to Talos as is common for Nords but doesn't care much for praying.
Profession: Knight Errant/Blades Member
Special talent: "Chivalry", adherence to honourable standards causes all allies present to have increased resolve, taking decreased damage/have greater defence (by a factor of 1/8).

<spoiler=My sheet>Name: Tezuka Al'rin-az
Age: 23
Race: Khajiit
Gender: Female
Appearance: Tezuka is a small khajiit, with green eyes and a light brown and reddish fur.
Her hair is short, light brown and has a few jewels in it. She lost her left arm in an incident, but a skilled healer saved her from dying. She was left with a stump.
She wears a bright green shawl, with long sleeves. The shirt is tightly fastened in braids down her right side, in order to prevent the torso fur from being seen. The left arm of the shirt is tied up in a knot. Her pants are dark grey and she has a belt around her waist, with satchels tied to it. She keeps things like paper, coins, brushes, pens, colors, ink and a knife in them.
Abilities (magic/fighting style): Speech, hand-to-hand and acrobatics.
Background Story: She was born into one of Elsweyr's richest families, living in Torval. She had one younger brother, a father and a mother. She was kind of spoiled as a kid, with her getting a lot of what she asked for. Her father got her a tutor at a pretty young age, who started to teach her diplomacy, art and the unarmed combat of whispering claw. She was happy with this and did everything her tutor wanted her too.

AcceptedBerenzen said:Name: Caia 'Twinlives'
Age: 24
Race: Imperial
Gender: Female
Appearance: Caia is 5'10" and of a medium build. She has medium-length black hair with a dark brown eye. She wears a eyepatch over her left eye, and a scarf over her neck. Underneath the scarf there is a ropy scar, left from a botched hanging. She dislikes wearing armor, yet when needed, she will wear light leather armor. Otherwise, she enjoys wearing finery when off duty.
Face similar to this, add an eyepatch and a scar on the neck (Skyrim character creator didn't have either, I know what I'm modding in come creation kit)
Abilities (magic/fighting style): Caia uses a quarterstaff or spear. A tactician, she keeps an eye on the battlefield, picking out flaws in the enemies defenses, where she will direct her allies towards.
Background story: Miles was born and raised in the Imperial city. When she was 16, she joined the military. Her eye for tactics quickly sent her through the ranks, eventually ending up as Praefect. During her time as a soldier she was grazed by a sword on her left eye where she lost function of it, making her wear the eyepatch that he has today. During a battle, she was framed and betrayed by her second-in-command, who coveted her position. She was court-marshalled, and brought for execution via hanging. During the day of execution, Caia was the victim of a botched hanging, most likely for the amusement of the crowds. Luckily for her, the Emperor was given evidence proving Caia's innocence. Caia was cut down and resuscitated with restoration magic. The long ropey scar around her neck is a constant reminder of what she experienced that day.
Personality: Caia is a cynic, between her life as a soldier and her hanging, she takes everything with a grain of salt. She doesn't pass up a chance to learn however, she believes that knowledge is the key to winning battles. She isn't very devout, believing that that the Aedra and the Daedra are just exceptionally powerful beings, but not gods.
Profession: Wandering Tactician/Scholar
Special talent: Master Tactician- Nearby allies are granted bonuses to attack and defense rolls.
