The Imperial Bruiser

Aradate was an unfortunate child indeed. Her Imperial parents had believed strongly in adventure and helping others in the name Akatosh. During one such journey they had found themselves bested by a raiding party of Orismer leaving little Aradate without a home or family. Thankfully she was discovered by a traveling band of Khajiit that took her in as one of their own. It was their that she began her life long study of clothing, smithing, woodwork, and even the placement of enchantments. Unfortunately, she also became very well acquainted with moon sugar and skooma - whenever she is not actively working she can normally be found passed out, or very near it, in the corner.

After coming of age she began her own travels in the name of Mara seeking to spread the love her adopted family had given her. She even found herself with the blessing of the Aedra and was able to wield the light as both a weapon against her foes as well as helping her allies to recover from their wounds. This would not last, however, as she found herself drawn more and more by the blood lust that overtook her whenever she was in combat. It was during an excavation of one of the numerous dungeons in the world that she found her true calling, after encountering a werewolf she found herself infected - and soon the whispers of power and promise from the Lord Hiricine became too enticing to ignore...

((Posted this in my other introduction but was suggested to post it up here as well. In character she's more a body guard / bruiser than a merchant. But that should fit well considering not everyone is too appreciative of Khajiit simply trying to peddle their wares.))
