Why is your character in Dominion territory? How did they get here?
She has lived in Dominion territory all her life, only travelling outside of it for jobs and heists. She is currently settling down in Valenwood. She’s struggling to get used to the idea.

Background
Wren lost her parents at a young age, though she can’t remember how. Her earliest memories are of scrounging for food in Grahtwood and struggling to survive. One day, when she was around 8, she was caught eating berries by some Green Pact fanatics, who beat her severely for her transgressions. (All the while saying she should be thankful they didn’t cut her hands off). She managed to survive but developed a severe hatred of anyone who would rather see a child die, than survive by breaking the Pact.

Growing up she came across a few kind people who taught her some life skills, like archery and hunting, though she never stayed with them for too long, afraid to get too attached. She wandered around Valenwood, just trying to survive day-to-day. When she was around 12 (she thinks, she’s not sure how old she actually is), she was spotted stealing food from a market stall. Fortunately the ones who spotted her were also thieves and, impressed with her talents, took her under their wing; introducing her to a new family in the criminal underground and the thieves guild. She still resisted making any close connections, aware that thieves and cutthroats were unwise people to trust.

She is normally perpetually poor because she has a habit of giving away her drakes to those who need it more, though this has become harder now she's joined the guard.

Heya, I'm Talia, roster officer.

This is a great-looking sheet, there's just one little point I'd like to touch on: Wren's relation with the Eyes of the Queen. As anyone who has played the Vulkhel Guard part of the Dominion's story would know, the Eyes are Ayrenn's most trusted agents, more so than the Marines, and as such said agents hold a lot of sway with her. Wren's relation to the Eyes, however, is a little less clear cut, though for balance reasons she still breaks our RP rules.

I would like to point out that having a strong relation with the Eyes would, along with creating unreasonably strong political relations, directly break Bulletin 5 of our General Lore Rules under our Lore & Roleplaying Rules, "No characters that are of already existing NPCs or personally know existing NPCs." This is due to the fact that all Eyes are handpicked by Ayrenn herself, even though Wren refused, and that she may also be working with a known Eyes agent. Because of both balance and having to let Tamriel's story unfold as it does, we can't allow people to hold sway with influential NPCs, even if the power to do so is held loosely.

However, it would be perfectly reasonable for Wren to have taken the job from an unnamed Eyes agent, completed the job, been given the offer for a bigger role without necessarily knowing what said role would be, and then refused right there without ever having met Ayrenn. This would leave her current background story almost entirely intact while only changing how strong her relation is with the Dominion government.

Ack! Sorry, I edited the last paragraph and then forgot to copy it over. That's the problem with doing these things at work! It was meant to be as you suggested, she never even got close to meeting Ayrenn, all her contact is with one Queen's Eye and that's who she sends her information to. I've edited the paragraph to reflect that, hopefully it makes it clearer and more balanced, but am happy to make her further removed from the Eyes if required.
Thanks Talia!

Not to worry, though I'm impressed that we were thinking along the exact same train of thought!

Everything looks good now. I'm approving this on 2/8/2017. Please read through our Guild Bank Rules and take a look at our Guild Factions, as approaching an officer about these things is required for promotion.

I've made some changes to my sheet, removed the Queen's Eye stuff completely and just tweaked her a little. (Also is there a trick to inserting a pic, or did I just fail?)

If you upload an image to imgur.com (no account needed), then upload your image, wait for it to process, then right click on your image and select "Open image in new tab" you will receive a direct link to your image. Place that in an image code on here and you will be able to place an image wherever you like rather than it being added as an attachment at the bottom.

Example of an image code:

Aye. The problem you're having, Wren, is because there's no extension at the end of your picture. The problem can be fixed through the method Talia described. I went ahead and fixed it for you. ^
