Skadi is used to sticking to herself and can come off as cold, but once she opens up she becomes more friendly. She isn't always sure how to interact with people, but she enjoys learning about others. The only way she knows how to open up is by drinking. She always enjoys a good mug of ale, and keeps a horn flask on her side for when she gets thirsty. She can be more judgemental towards certain races, and will require more time to get to know and trust them. Although she is in control of her lycanthropy, she does get the occasional urges sometimes which may cause her to become angry and aggressive. She usually is able to remove herself from the situation before anything escalates.

Why is your character in Dominion territory? How did they get here?

She traveled around to see the world, first as a traveler then she began to earn coin as a bounty hunter, tracking criminals down or finding someone’s loved ones. She goes where the wind (and gold) takes her.

Background

Born in western Skyrim, Skadi is the daughter of a hunter and a cook. The small village she lived in was a front for a werewolf pack. She grew up thinking lycanthropy was normal, and regularly worshipped Hircine, gaining some praise from him. She learned to control her condition rather well and embraced her lycanthropy. Aside from daedra worship and lycanthropy, she grew up as a normal Nord child. She would wonder out of town occasionally, and made a friend in a neighboring village. She knew the world did not accept werewolves but she didn’t truly understand. She had exposed her lycanthropy to someone she considered a friend. Not long after, an order of werewolf hunters caught word. They raided the village, killing Skadi’s family. She escaped, fleeing south out of Skyrim. She learned a harsh lesson about the laws outside of her village, causing her trust to be a hard thing to truly gain.
Years had passed since then, she has traveled over the lands of Tamriel as a bounty hunter for hire. Although she is in control of her lycanthropy, she would prefer to camp outside the cities and tries to never stay in one place for too long. But she has grown tired of traveling at such a pace and wouldn't mind looking for a place to settle down for a while..

Heya, I'm Talia, roster officer.

There's just one thing I'd like to touch on here: It's very, very difficult to attain complete control over lycanthropy (and vampirism for that matter) and the urges associated with it. While there is little in the way of explaining how lycanthropy can be mastered, there is one sure-fire way to prevent unwanted changes: wearing silver jewelry. This could be a simple silver band or necklace, or something more elegant. It can also be worn under clothing and armor so as not to draw the ire of the local mortals. The drawback (and balancing point) for this method is that silver has a burning effect and weakens the werewolf, though it is reasonable to say that after a long enough period of time the skin that the jewelry rests against would become more tolerant of the pain.

Everything else looks good, though, Skadi just seems a bit too young to have achieved total control over her condition, even if she's had it from birth. The only other thing I would like for you to do is examine our werewolf-related town laws, as supernaturals are subject to more severe punishments than mortals if their conditions are discovered.
