My Dragonborn's name (at least the one that I have put the most time in/ enjoyed playing the most) is Thomas Wibseon, a Breton thief/assassin originally from Wayrest.

Thomas Wibseon was born to Drake Wibseon a minor noble in Wayrest who was die-hard believer in the Empire. Despite being a lord in Wayrest he as also the leader of the whole Penitus Occulatus in High Rock, a title that he did not share with few. At the outbreak of the Great War Drake immediately left his holding's and post in Wayrest to trusted advisor and his lands to his oldest daughter. Thomas was only a four when his father left, his mother died from a blight two years earlier. Drake formed a unit of special forces that ran clandestine operations against the Thalmor; damaging them greatly. Sometime before the retaking of the Imperial City, Drake and his men were captured and killed.

In the aftermath of the Great War, Hannah (Thomas's older sister), had taken over not only her father's holding but his position in the Penitus Occulatus. She had wanted to turn her lands into a training ground for not only new Penitus Occulatus agents, but for Blades as well. This sent shockwaves through the Thalmor, they could not abide a war criminal's daughter training Blades. Due to increased pressure from the Thalmor the king of Wayrest disowned the Wibseon's and all lands were seized. Hannah had contacts that forwarned her of this so she and her agents went underground striking at opportune moments.

Thomas was left with Agents loyal to Hannah to be raised in safety, but safety was never in Thomas's vocabulary. He grew up traversing through miles of wood, learned archery from bandits and swordplay from rogues. When he was sixteen he ran away from the agents and joined a pirate crew, they raided all along the Bretony and Hammerfell. Despite being surrounded by the underworld Thomas was alwaysvery good at heart, believing in honor among thieves. After a highly successful raid on a Thalmor galleon, Thomas became captain of his outfit. But his tenure as captain would be a short one; with the success of his raid on the Thalmor, Justiciars were dispatched to root out this pirate crew. In order to save them all from extermination, Thomas disbanded his crew and spread them all to the winds.

While in hiding at a safehouse in Bruma Thomas recieves an anonymous letter. He recognizes through a secret message that it was from his sister, whom he hadn't heard from for years now. She had written that she heard of his raids and was impressed at how proficient of a fighter he had become; but she was scared. For most of her life she had fought the Thalmor and had accepted that they were the enemies; but something was happening in Skyrim, something worse than the Thalmor. With her spynetwork nearly destroyed she needed Thomas back to help her rebuild, to save Skyrim, the Empire, hell everyone from the Thalmor and this new threat.

Without hesitation Thomas left to meet his sister at the border to Skyrim. As soon as he saw Hannah an arrow appeared striking her through the chest. Like an explosion a skirmish between Stormcloaks and Imperials broke out turning the border into chaos. Thomas held his sister as she lay dying and promised her he would defend Skyrim and continue her cause. He kissed her forehead before a blow from an Imperial knocked him unconscious
