cassandra nightshade was born in 3E 363 in the imperial city. cassandra's mother died soon after cassandra was born. cassandra was raised in the imperial city. her father was an altmer preist at the temple of akatosh. they were very poor. one day cassandra found a begger who taught her to steal. she used her newfound talents to help the poor and weak. years later she tried to pickpocket the emperor uriel septim VII during a speech. she got caught but was not executed or imprisoned. she was hired by the emperor to be a spy. she was being paid well for her work as a spy. her father also doing well. on one of her scouting missions she was attacked by an argonian bandit. she killed the bandit and went on with her mission. the argonian bandit's sister performed the black sacrement and hired a dark brotherhood assassin to kill cassandra. on a mission to take a letter to morrowind cassandra was killed by the assassin. cassandra had been studying magic and the elder scrolls before she died and created an amulet that could bring her back to life. cassandra was brought back to life by the amulet but could not return to her family or her job. they already heard of her death. she joined the dark brotherhood and the theives guild and got revenge on the assassin that killed her. she met an altmer named calero elsinal. they traveled across tamriel. during the oblivion crisis cassandra went to the imperial city. her father was dead. daedra killed him. the emperor was dead. calero had gone missing. cassandra prayed at the shrine of akatosh and hoped the daedra would not find her. (she has a fear of daedra). she traveled across cyrodiil and stole while people panicked. after the oblivion crisis was over she reunited with calero and met someone calero had befriended during the oblivon crisis, tandilyn avalain. calero and cassandra got married and continued to travel across tamriel for many years helping the poor and the weak. they also got rich (cassandra got rich by stealing. calero got rich by being a mercenary). when the dragon crisis started the went to skyrim so cassandra could steal from the rich and panicked and help the the weak and sick and poor. and so calero could be hired by the panicked and rich for protection.

they are currently both in solitude...enjoying life. Nice backstory, but the events in Oblivian happened a long time before the events in Skyrim
