Name: Troy Bell

Race: Nord

DOB:21st of Last Seed 4E 170

Being born a year before the great war Troy's childhood was filled with tragedy. His father Akim Bell left to fight for the Empire along with Ulfric Stormcloak. He was wounded in a Skirmish but thankfully was not killed. Upon his return he learned of the Death of the Jarl of Windhelm. Akim sent his eldest son Konir to smuggle a message to Ulfric Stormcloak who had been captured by the Thalmor.

Konir came back with a eulogy writtin by Ulfric. Akim read it to the citizens of Windhelm. It was decided by the towns people that Akim should be the Jarl until Ulfric returned. This was a better time for Troy as he was treated like royalty.

When Ulfric escaped he returned to a mourning city. As he took his position as Jarl, Akim told him that he was considering leaving for Cyrodil. Ulfric Urged him to stay as it would be safer for his family. Akim replied that he was only considering it, but if things got any worse he would leave.

When the war was lost and The White Gold Concordat was sign, it was the last staw for Akim. He left Windhelm and ventured to the Imperial city to protest the White Gold Concordat (Akim being a war veteran had caught the attention of the Emporer). He stated his case but was declined by him. Akim returned to Windhelm but left his family. Akim spoke with Ulfric about a possible rebellion from the Empire, and a few years later the events that would start the Civil war were set in motion.

Akim was not heard from for 20 years. When he finally made contact with his family he sent a letter saying that he believed Troy should come to Skyrim. He said he had a dream of Troy slaying a large black winged beast, in front of Shor's Hall. Shortly afterwards Akim went missing.

Troy made his way to Skyrim, but was ambushed by Imperials outside Darkwater crossing. He was sent to Helgen to for execution along with several Stormcloaks(he did not know they were Stormcloaks at the time). He was saved by the very beast he would later kill. He escaped with a childhood friend who did not recognize him, Ralof.
