So people, what are you roleplaying characters?
I'm not usually a big roleplayer by and large, but I really get into it with Elder Scrolls games.
My main is an Altmer:
Name: Rheia Tawariel
Age: Older than she looks.
Spec: Sword and shield, heavy armor, enchanting, archery, some resto.
Factions: Currently only the companions.
Backstory:
Raised by a Khajiit family after her ship wrecked (I was gutted there is limited hand to hand stuff in vanilla).
She joined the Thalmor army hoping to find a connection to her people, taking part in the invasion of Cyrodiil and present at the battle of the Imperial City. During and after that terrible war she grew disilusioned, and with little love for either side she deserted and set out to find out more about her past.
In the years since then she has been hunted by Thalmor agents, and finding nothing of who her parents were has fallen back on mercenary work such as bounty hunting. All of which has seen her travel across much of Tamriel before finally ending up in Skyrim and getting caught in the ambush of Ulfric. She is quite straightforward, honourable and so on, but with a feral streak brought about by her time with the Khajiit - you don't want to cross her.
More recently, and in part due to her new powers, she has become somewhat obsessed with the Daedra Lords,, her main motivation in hunting down their shrines and completing their tasks is to eventually find a way to kill or banish as many as she can however impossible such a task seems.
I have a few other characters fleshed out, but that's the one I'm most happy with.
