Story:

Five years after the Dragonborn slew the firstborn of Akatosh and left Tamriel for Akavir, the Civil War that tears Skyrim apart continues while an organization known as the Minds of Lost sacked the Pale Hold capital, Dawnstar, through the use of ancient Dwemer, Falmer, and Ayleid artifacts. The Minds of Lost were wearing ancient Falmer armor while carrying Varla and Welkynd Stones and were guarded by Dwemer automatons. The Dawnstar guards and Stormcloak reinforcements were defeated and given swift deaths. The commanding officer of the Minds of Lost yelled out to the twin moons "Come out Silver Owls! Show us your strength and wisdom!" When these so called Silver Owls arrived, they proved to be a challenge for the Minds of Lost but were defeated. They died honorably fighting the Minds. The Minds of Lost then fortified the sacked city of Dawnstar. The secret societies known as the Order of the Silver Owl and the Minds of Lost were now talked about by everyone from Skyrim to Black Marsh while these organizations would take part in large battles near Dawnstar and ancient Dwemer and Falmer strongholds. While the Silver Owls and Minds of Lost battled, the a new criminal organization as arisen with the constant integration of weak bandit gangs into a gang known as the Black Claws. The Black Claws, led by Erik the Saw, have been terrorizing traders, travelers, guards, and even Thalmor. Bounties have been placed on the heads of the Black Claws in every Hold in Skyrim. Despite the great rewards offered for the head of Erik the Saw, few dare to enter the ruins of Helgen where the Black Claws have made the ruined city their base of operations and those that do dare never return. With the presence of dragons, rebellious Nords, bandits, mysterious and hostile organizations, and other monsters and such, the Imperial mage institutions formally known as the College of Whispers and the Synod have been providing the Imperial Legion with military support, giving the Imperial Legion the upper hand in the Civil War. The Penitus Oculatus has also provided the Imperial Legion with military support. No one is certain how Skyrim will turn out, but it is certain that some simply want to make a profit while others are simply insane.

Important Characters:

·Erik the Saw – Nord leader of the Black Claws and enemy to every other faction in Skyrim and Tamriel

·Brandon Solo the 10th - Imperial leader of the Minds of Lost

Important Details:

·Both the Imperial Legion and the Stormcloak Army have asked the College of Winterhold for support but the College refuses to support either sides of the War.

·The Thieves Guild has not been majorly affected by the Civil War or the slaying of Alduin but the War and presence of dragons, mysterious and hostile people using ancient technology, and a bandit empire has made it harder for them to travel across the Holds.

·The Dark Brotherhood Sanctuary near Falkreath was raided by the Penitus Occulatus but the Brotherhood still lives as Babette and Veezara escaped with their lives.

· The Penitus Occulatus placed a bounty of 10,000 Septims on the heads of Veezara and Babette

· The Imperial Legion has the upper hand in the Civil War thanks to their allies, the College of Whispers, the Synod and the Penitus Oculatus, who have helped the Imperial soldiers and battlemages in battle.
