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

He likes to explore. The natural wanderlust of being an Imperial attributes to this. Having no real interest in the war, what's the difference between one faction and another?

Background:

Lars grew up on a small farm along the Gold Coast. When men from the city of Anvil came to take his family's farm from them, he put a dagger in the back of the leader.

Running from the farm, members of the Dark Brotherhood tracked him down. They invited him to their lair, but Lars was reluctant. Maybe, one day....

Learning the art of thieving was thrown upon him when he left home. The Thieves' Guild took him in and trained him with some of their skills. He has no reservations with them; they became his new family when he had to flee the farm.

Through training, they found that Lars had a good eye for archery. He also took on the art of the blades. He likes to make his own weapons - but will not turn down one offered, if it is superior to what he can make. He also is willing to make things for anyone who ask him - be it blades, bows, or staves. One day, he hopes to make big money doing this.

Hello there, I'm Kisven a roster officer. Your character sheet seems very interesting. I like the bits about the archery and craftsmanship. But there are a few things I wish to discuss with you before I approve this sheet.
1) The blood ritual you've mentioned in your background story. A blood ritual in TES lore is how vampirism is transmitted. If this was the case then your character would be a vampire and their affliction would be vampirism. Unless you mean this ritual is the Black Sacrament Ritual which specifically requires a dead body. In this case, your character would dead.

2) Being kidnapped by the Darkbrotherhood. There is only one case where this was ever shown and that was in the 4th era during the TES Skyrim events. And this only happened due to the guild not having a Listener nor the Nightmother to guide them. So by being kidnapped and let go, would being a very special case under very special circumstances.

That should be all! another thing I want to poke you about is that we do not RP game mechanics when it comes to combat and story, I mention this because I've read that your character is good with whirling blades which is only described as a ability in game. Thanks!

Kisven

I made a few changes, I hope this helps.

As for the "Whirling Blades" thing, that is not just an ESO term; it can be used to describe the technique that Dervish warriors of the middle-east used to dispatch their enemies. Many called them "Whirling Blades." I deleted it anyways, so the point is now moot.
