Tag. Do remnants of the Stormcloaks still exist?

There's still some nationalists out there, but the Stormcloak rebellion has been wiped.

My mind tells me Dark Elf, because I love the Dunmer and their history....but I also love Argonians because they are....well...lizard people.

Can always do both, you can have three characters total.

Eh, I can't handle multiple characters. Too overwhelming.

I really want to app as a surviving Ayleid with his or her honour guard.

I'd rather not, really

Pretty please Dutchy? I promise to be good.

[Feroxi]

This pleases me.

I'll be an Argonian, of course. How's the state of the Marsh, Dutch? I could see the Argonians transitioning into extreme nationalism and racial pride after their victories in the Oblivion Crisis and the Sacking of Morrowind. After all, they've been fucked over their entire history. Now that they're tasting the sweetness of power, they'll want more. I'm seeing lizard-men wearing leather and Hist resin armor marching into southern Morrowind and leaving nothing but fiery destruction in their wake.

They're still trying to invade Morrowind, but have only managed to take the southern marshland.

To Altmer or not to Altmer. Because although the Thalmor are dicks, it's fun to be evil.

Interesting. I'm currently crafting a (falsely) disgraced Dunmer general who spent much of his life fighting the Argonians.

We don't have to be stereotypical with the races. Not every Altmer will be a supremacist and not every Orc will be a bloodthirsty warrior. There are those who drift out of the social norms of society. Why not have some fun and have a High Elf that sucks at magic or who has symphathy for humans?

Awww. Well, alrighty.

If I did an Altmer, I'd have to make them like my Oblivion character; they know only one spell, but that one spell gets so much use.

I'm already foreseeing some intriguing interaction between the two. Guessing he'll be Redoran?

Yup. The bastard son of a House Father, who's trueborn sons got jealous of his victories and accused him of rape, which got him banished from Morrowind.

Not necrophilia?

Heh.

Maybe it was, and his brothers just got it all wrong.

I get those things mixed up sometimes as well, don't worry.

So I had to become the victim of a recruitment campaign in order to enjoy a Elder Scrolls RP? I'm fine with that.

Bio:

Marcus was born in the Imperial City 25 years ago as a pure-blood Imperial. His mother died giving birth to Marcus, so he only knew his father. His father was a member of the Imperial Legion, and was never truly around for he was always on the front. Living in the Imperial City during the days of the Empire's expansion was difficult, for taxes were high and most of the men were gone. While his father was his role model, his father was never really around. Though, when Marcus DID see his dad, he loved every second of it. His dad taught him how to wield a sword, how to fight with a dagger, how to survive when everyone else was doomed. At age 12, his father would head to the Imperial-Dominion Border. In a small skirmish, his father was killed, and Marcus would never see him again.

Marcus, deeply abandoned and all alone, packed up everything he could and joined a small caravan heading to Skyrim. Marcus hoped that Skyrim could be a fresh start, where the memories of his past don't haunt him. After the long hike, 12 year old Marcus found himself in Riften, where the authorities threw him in the Orphanage. He was abused, neglected, and mistreated in the orphanage, but at age 14 he was caught stealing. As a result, his "mother" brutally beat him to the point that he entered a coma. Hoping to cover up what she'd done, she threw Marcus into the river in Riften to make it look like a mugging. Though, the dying teenager was found by a couple of shady men. Marcus would awake three weeks later deep in the sewers. After weeks of recovery, Marcus would learn that we was rescued by none other than the Thieves' Guild. Over the next two years, Marcus would become a very respected member of the Guild, carrying out many major and minor jobs, including the infamous robbery of the Silver Blood Family of Markarth.

By age 17, Marcus had roughly 20,000 Septims which he'd earned over years of small robberies and larger ones alike. With that much money, Marcus could afford to move away. Still keeping close ties to the Guild, Marcus bought a home in Whiterun, and began to build a life... an honest life. Marcus joined the Whiterun Guard and also got a job working a trading post. Though, at age 19, he would enlist in the Imperial Legion with the interests of following in his father's footsteps. Marcus spent over a year at an isolated Imperial Fort in the Orsinium region, where his life was at risk with each passing day. Almost every day, the fort was attacked by angry Orcish insurgents, or he was sent on a mission to hunt them down. In a year of almost constant fighting where dozens of his fellow soldiers were brutally slaughtered, Marcus killed 31 Orcs, and came to resent the Orsimer.

Marcus returned to Skyrim and served part time at Fort Greymoor with a small Imperial Garrison. For the next two years, his life would be relatively consistent, until he was redeploy far from Skyrim, all the way to the southern regions of Cyrodil. Today, Marcus is far from home, preparing for what he believes to be an imminent war with the High Elves of the Aldmeri Dominion...
