(Sorry this took so long, I've been really busy with school and work ;-; )
ESO: @Lumm0x
Name: Eluneth Oakenwing
Race: Bosmer
Gender: Female
Sexual Orientation: No preference
Flair: Eluneth has a pair of large scars that trail down her back, presumably from a whip. She also wears a small bone necklace given to her by her parents on her birthday.
Rumors: Some say that when she is provoked too much, she becomes abnormally enraged. Rumors of vampirism are also tossed around, but this is not confirmed.
Personality: Eluneth would be seen by most as a very shy and timid woman. Her nervousness in almost every social situation is nearly palpable. She seems to almost always have her eye on all available exits and never likes to remain in the same place for too long. After initial confrontation, her nervousness seems to settle down, and she will generally feel comfortable with conversation.
Likes:
-Acceptance
-Alcohol (Although her small stature only allows her to have a couple drinks before she is completely drunk)
-Combat/Fights
-Hunting
-Cooking (Though she always seems to it mess up in some way or another.)
-Accompanying afflictions (Vampirism and Lycanthropy)
-Exploring/Adventuring
Dislikes:
-Arrogance
-Discrimination
-Dresses (or any other formal attire)
-Confrontation
Background:
Eluneth grew up in a village with her parents in Northern Valenwood. Being an only child, she was subject to high amounts of love and care at a young age. Her father treated her like a son, teaching her how to hunt with a bow and how to fight with a sword. Her mother taught her how to cook (Although, as listed above, she was pretty bad at it.)
Constant sheltering from her parents resulted in young Eluneth being quite naive. She often left the safety of the village to scale tall trees, or go on 'adventures'. Although she could hold her own in most battles she never wanted to resort to violence.
One fateful day however, she travelled too far away from her village. She came across a dark mysterious cave. Determined to go on an 'adventure' she crept inside. What she saw was horrible. She had come across a cave of vampires. Scared and alone, she turned to run for her life. Unfortunately, in her terrified scramble, she had tripped, alerting all the vampires to her location. In a frenzy, she manages to escape the vampires, sprinting through the forest back to her village. She tells no one.
Over the next couple days, nothing particularly out of the ordinary occurs. She continues learning how to hunt and fight with her dad, and to cook with her mother.
About a week from the vampire encounter, Eluneth is out hunting with her father. She had just caught her first deer, much to her father's surprise and astonishment. This moment is short-lived, however, as bloodcurdling screams can be heard from her village in the distance. Her father tells Eluneth to stay put as he rushes to investigate. However, being young and curious, she follows after him. What she witnesses will change her forever.
The vampires had discovered her village and began an attack. They were capturing women and children to be used as thralls, and cutting down every male who retaliated to save his family. She reached the village just in time to witness her father's death, and soon the vampires rushed after her. At once she made a mad dash through the forest. It was no use however. Soon the vampires had captured Eluneth and the rest of her people that had not been killed in the conflict (her mother was among the ones that had survived). The clan of vampires had brought her people back to the same cave she had discovered a week earlier. Most of her people were simply thrown into a cell to be slowly and painfully drained of their blood, with the exception of herself. Seeing her as a young teenage girl, they decided to give her a 'gift', one she would resent the rest of her life. They infected her with vampirism, and treated her as their 'plaything', torturing her as well as a number of other things for purely entertainment purposes, (This is where the scars on her back originated from).
Over the period of many years, she slowly gained the trust and respect from the clan, however she never forgot what they did to her people. One night, out of pure hatred and vengeance, she grabbed a dagger and slit all of the clan members' throats in their sleep. At once, she ran to where they were keeping the people from her village. Most had simply died of blood loss, however she found her mother, weak, and begging for death. Out of mercy, and to end her suffering, she killed her mother.
Eluneth was covered in both blood and regret. She had just murdered a whole clan of vampires. Those who had, over time, come to accept and trust her as their own. She grappled whether she had made the right choice. To enact vengeance over an equally diverse and intricate society as her own village. Was she no better than them? Should she had simply forgiven the vampires for what they had done? This drove her to isolation, and borderline insanity. Upon leaving the cave, she came to realise the outside world's distaste and hatred of vampires, and thus she learned to travel by night and stay in the shadows.
Only very recently, with the encouragement of the few friends she has kept in contact with, has she introduced herself to the public again.
