Are you a huge fan of Nirn's history, like I happen to be? I've already used the Skill Calculator like crazy from esohead.com, and I've even developed a backstory for my character. Does anyone know if you will be able to write your character's biography then put it on your "profile" or something like that, in game? It would be awesome to just sit in a city and read random players' takes on their own character's back stories.

Here's a summary of my character's history:

In the year 577 of the Second Era, a seventeen-year-old Argonian lad by the name of Annro had just been bought by a wealthy, sympathetic Nord family that lives in The Rift hold of Skyrim, just due East of the border of Morrowind. Annro was seperated from his parents when a large group of Dunmer slavers had captured them, along with several other Argonians who were migrating to Cyrodiil from Thorn. Despite the alliance the Argonians and Dunmer shared, there was still petty slaving between the two. Annro's ancestry goes all the way back to the First Era, in the city of Lilmoth. His ancestors and relatives suffered through and fought back several pirate and Akaviri attacks, which lead them to hate both Man and Mer. So with this racial prejudice, Annro–a name he was given by his father, who was fascinated by the Redgaurd–decided to escape this Nord family and return to Lilmoth once he had saved up enough money. But Annro's pay got smaller and smaller over the years, as the Interregnum started to take its heavy toll on this family, who had been cleverly crafty with their trade and avoided what most other traders could not. Realizing that he would not be able save the money, he plotted to kill the family... but he then recieved news that his parents had been executed in Ald'ruhn after a failed heist with the Thieve's Guild several months before he received the letter. Heartbroken, the family offered him his freedom, as they were understanding and generous. They gave him fifty septims as a start, and he headed for Riften. As soon as he arrived, there was panic and uproar as news quickly spread of Molag Bal's assault on Tamriel. Annro felt that he must leave his petty lusts behind and pursue a "noble" cause. He brought himself to join the Ebonheart Pact, which he hated since its birth...

So what's your character's history? Why do they fight for the faction they fight for?
