Age: Twenty-six (became a werewolf at twenty-two)

Height: 5'7"

Weight: 134lbs (without armor)

Physical Description: Three scars on her left cheek, leading down from her eye (a few inches away from the eye itself) diagonally. Her skin is pale, like the skin of most Nords. She tends to put off white warpaint on her right cheek in a spiral pattern from her nose to the top of her neck. Her eyes are a silvery-grey. Her hair is rather wild and thick, it tends to fluff up because it's so short (it goes about an inch or two past the nape of her neck) and is a very light red/brown. She of average height and weight for a Nord woman.

Faction: The Companions

Faction Rank: Harbringer

Curse: Werewolf- Her wolf form's fur is a bit darker than her usual hair color on her back, though turns a slightly lighter color that resembles her normal hair color more as it goes down her chest and stomacher fur. Her eyes are a golden color in this form, though her scars stretch slightly down her snout. Her claws are black and her fur is thick and wild, though just short enough that it wont get caught on anything.

Special Powers: *Hircine occasionally speaks to her through dreams
*Super-speed/Stregnth & enhanced seneses + reflexes when in wolf form.
*Slightly enhanced senses and reflexes when in human form

Biography: Eiruki was orphaned before her tenth winter when her family was wiped out by a dragon, near the wars end. Luckily she was playing outside at the time, but by the time she returned home it was too late. Her family was gone, the charred house all that remained. That's where the companions found her, the old Harbringer Kodlak was the first to spot her silver eyes peeking out at the from the ruins of the house. He took her under his wing and she joined the companions, training with a wooden shield and sword at a young age until she was old (and big) enough to use metal ones. She was determined to never be unable to defend those she cared about ever again. By joining them, she wished to make a name for herself and bring honor to it, so she was gifted the last name Rosteir by Kodlak himself on her fifteenth birthday and has been doing her best to bring honor to it ever since.
She is considered one of the youngest people to ever join the companions, and was inducted into the circle when she turned twenty, gaining her werewolf powers. Two years later, Kodlak was killed by the Silver hand, prompting the Circle to retaliate. After another three years of this, the fighting finally calmed and she was named Harbringer of the circle at twenty-five. At twenty six she is still getting used to the position (she's been Harbringer for about nine months now) but is more in tune with the circle than anyone else in the companions. She still holds a grudge against the Silver Hand, and is very careful when selecting Circle members.

Personality: She tends to stick to the circle within the Companions, and can be cautious of newcomers. That aside, she is extremely loyal to all in the Companions. Regardless of whether or not she likes you, she will do her utmost to protect and fight for all of her pack. If there is a problem to be solved, it is taken to her, as she makes a rather impartial judge when it comes to arguments between pack members. She has a better grip on her temper than most werewolves, though it is still admittedly shorter than most regular people.

Character Name: Faric Laniel

Race: Breton

Sex: Male

Age: 25

Height: 5'5"

Weight: 127lbs (without armor)

Physical description: Faric looks younger than he actually is (a family trait), and looks to be about twenty despite him being twenty-five. He has soft, caramel colored hair that is neatly cut about two inches from the nape of his neck, and his bangs are moved off to the left side. His eyes are a deep, oceanic blue and he has skin of a mild, average tone. He is slim, but still muscled (not hulking muscles, but the more corded, slim ones). He's shorter than most Nords.

((Seeing as I have a hard time describing his hair, it's rather straight and is long enough to brush (think of one of the more modern, semi-long boy hairstyles. Because Nordic hair is LONG in Skyrim, and I wasn't really sure how the average hair length would be in the game, so this is a more modern description))

Faction: Dark Brotherhood

Faction Rank: Speaker (Ambassador to other factions- while the Listener runs the brotherhood- and recruits potential members/tests them.)

Weapon of choice: He uses his bow and poisoned arrows first and foremost. His bow is specially carved and black, with symbols meaning Sithis and the Night Mother dotting it's length in several forgotten languages. His quiver is filled with poisoned arrows that paralyze on contact (should he be required by a contract to kill close up) and kill the target within a few minutes if the antidote is not administered. He also has a pair of ebony daggers to fall back on should someone get to close for him to shoot.

---Biography: As a child he was considered an oddity because he disliked using magic. He found that he simply wasn't good at the kind of magic that the other children were. He could heal scrapes and bruises, while they were having magical duels and casting wards. To be honest, he preferred hunting and playing with knives. His parents tried to break him of the habit, but he was so determined that he decided to go hunt the largest elk he could find and bring it back to his family. Sadly, one of the villagers had tailed him and ended up scaring off the elk at a critical moment from behind, and was shot by the arrow intended for the animal. The villager died and he was disowned and cast out at the age of twelve.

He was, of course, crushed, but was found quickly by the brotherhood. It seemed that killing someone made him a possible recruit, and he was left with instructions to kill one of their renegade members. He was drawn in by the letter, and it's promises of a new home and family. He did as instructed and killed the woman mentioned in the letter by sneaking back into his village and shooting her in the back. After that he was chased for about a day before collapsing of exhaustion. When he woke, he was in the brotherhood's home and welcomed almost immediately the youngest member of their family (he had just turned thirteen by that time). It was at that time he changed his name to Faric Laniel, wanting to forget the past and move on with his new family.

He spent several years learning and fighting with the brotherhood, honing his talents and going on progressively harder missions. He became fast friends with Babette, the only other member who could really understand him, seeing as she too was a child. Even as he grew and she stayed the same, the two still remained close.

When his home with the brotherhood was attacked by the Penitus Oculatus (the Emperor's security force) he was nearly killed. He only survived the attack on the brotherhood because Babette saved him from the flames that consumed the base (in no small part due to the plentiful supply of oil the Penitus Oculatus brought with them). He woke a day later with mild burns and a concussion. Babette had managed to drag him outside when she fled, and the duo waited at the new home in Dawnstar with Cicero until the Listener returned.

After the Emperor was killed, he was named Speaker for his hard work and loyalty to the Brotherhood on his twentieth birthday. He does an admirable job, and tends to spend a lot of time with the thieves guild.
-------

Personality: Faric likes to keep up a playful, mellow demeanor. People tend to feel pretty comfortable around him because of this, and thus he is never really a suspect for his assassinations. He's a fantastic actor and is good at acting cute, sweet and generally harmless. This is an act. His real personality, which he shows only to those he trusts (aka the brotherhood), he is calculating and somewhat stern. He is however, very loyal to the brotherhood, Sithis and the Night Mother. Don't speak ill of them unless you'd like to be killed. His praise is hard earned, so if he compliments you, he means it. He is very honest, sometimes brutally so (if you botch a job for him, you'll know it). He is protective and tends to stick around the people he likes best.

Character Name: Astien Gajasha

Race: Breton

Sex: Male

Age: Fourteen

Height: 4'11"

Weight: 101lbs

Physical description: Astien is a slim fourteen year old with relatively pale skin (from spending so much time underground). He has white-blond hair and amber eyes. His hands are rather calloused from climbing and exploring the many structures of Blackreach. He wears soft, dark boots and a dark grey robe with amber trim. He wears a simple pair of breeches and a soft shirt underneath his robe, and no jewelry.

Faction: Dwarven Inquisition

Faction Rank: Seregon's Apprentice / Archmage's Apprentice (so Mage ranking)

Weapon of choice: Destruction Magic (he has a Master's power level)
Biography: Astien was orphaned at a young age, and grew up among Nord children. He was often mocked for his magical skills, and practiced them in secret. He quickly learned that he had a great deal of power to draw from, seeing as he rarely ever got tired practicing magic. However, it was also very hard for him to control. One day he lost his temper with one of the Nord boys at the orphanage who hit him, and ended up burning the place to the ground.
That was where the Archmage found him a few days later, and adopted him. He followed him back to Blackreach, where he was trained to become a better mage. He's been with Seregon for about four years now, and is still just as unruly as they day they met. He calls him 'lizard' often, but Seregon is really his favorite person in the place. He also tends to pester his 'babysitter' Gwen, when Seregon isn't around. Sometimes he pulls pranks on the other mages, but usually spends him time trying to perfect his spells, even if they do cause quite a bit of damage.

Personality: He is a teenager (albiet a young one) and can be very unruly. He really won't listen to anyone besides his mentor (and even that is only occasionally). He loves magic and often experiments on his own, despite the commonly explosive results. He doesn't use any sort of formality with anyone, and is generally disrespectful. He is also very playful, and likes to play games of skill (such as chess) with other mages when he can, and it is really the only way to get him to sit still. He is very full of energy. He can be clingy if he gets scared, but that's rare.
