Update: Small grammar fixes I did not notice before.

My Characters back story is really complex as I have recently read the Morrowind story and fell in love with the idea of the Nerevarine.

 Official Imperial Dossier… 

Name: Matthias O’ Rellious

Race and Sex: Male Imperial

Place of Birth: Skingrad, Cyrodill

Age: Unknown

Parents: Unknown

The year is 191 of the Fourth Era and a ship has docked at the port in theImperial City. What seems to be strange about this, is that the ships manifest states that it had sailed from the land of Akavir. If history serves me well, it's that the Akaviri people were the ancestors of the near forgotten guild of the Blades. The group who protected the Septim emperor's. Before Martin Septim sacrificed himself to save Cyrodiil and all of Tameriel from the Oblivion crisis. Well it seems that one things that came off the ship and that was the Imperial in question, Matthias O’ Rellious. Nothing seems to be known about him, yet he claims he was in Morrowind six years prior to the Oblivion crisis. Matthias also stated that he has returned to Tameriel for a reason that is even unknown to him, all he seems to know is that his path which he learned in Akavir lead him back here. He was unwilling to reveal any personal information about his past and or his family. He has been officially released from imperial custody but will remain under secret surveillance, until we can find out what his plan is. As of now we do not believe he is a spy of the Aldmeri Dominion, and currently poses no threat to the emperor or his subjects, nor does he risk violating the White Gold Concordat.

 Personal Journal of Matthias   O’ Rellious… 

'     Year 191 of the Fourth Era, I've just returned to Tameriel after a long journey to the land of Akavir. Though my journey was knowledgeable, I find myself asking more questions than answers. I initially journeyed to Akavir so I possibly could learn more about my destiny and what I was put on Nirn for, it feels like there is a purpose I have, and yet I can't explain it. When I got to Akavir I seem to have been driven to this old temple depicting what looked like dragons and mythic symbols I'd never seen of before, I decided to sit and meditate and hope the answers would come to me. It was then when I had a vision, and though it was mostly incomprehensible riddles. I realized that what I seek, would only be found back in Tameriel. When I emerged from my meditation I shocked to learn upon my arrival to the coast, where I caught a ship back to Tameriel. That over 200 years have passed! When I arrived in the Imperial City I was questioned by an Imperial Legate, Apparently a great deal has changed in the empire during my absence, and not entirely for the better I’m afraid. No matter, I aim to set off at the crack of dawn in search of the meaning of my vision, and possibly my true purpose on Nirn.'

      'Year 196 of the Fourth Era, I have searched far and wide for answers to explain the vision I received in Akavir. I have also learned that the chapel belonging to the knights of the nine was restored during the oblivion crisis but only remained operational for a short time, it seemed to have fell apart after the disappearance of the second divine crusader. A few years ago, the armor was stolen from the chapel ruins and now resides on some thief’s dusty trophy shelf. I would like to retrieve the relics, as it feels like my purpose is linked to the divines in some way or another. I may not be the divine crusader, but maybe I could be a “warden” of the divines. A beacon of light when all the other lights go out. I’ll have to see if I can find the location of thieves’ hideout, and claim them for myself.'

'       Year 196 Of the Fourth Era, It’s only been a few months. Yet I’ve travelled to the Summerset Isle as it is a place shrouded in mystery, and I thought maybe my answer would be here, but I was wrong. I have however come to learn more of a group the citizens of Cyrodiil refer to as the Thalmor, and have learned of their hatred for the Ninth divine, Talos. Who knew that an important figure like him would cause the Aldmeri Dominion to start a war with the empire. I personally think it’s disgraceful, Tiber Septim was an important figure in Tameriel history as he conquered all the Provinces, and forged a strong empire that has spanned countless Eras of peace.'

'      Year 199 of the Fourth Era, it’s been eight damn years since my return to Tameriel. I am no closer to finding out the answers of my vision in Akavir, I’ve been to Summerset Ile, Hammerfell, Elsweyr, Valenwood, High Rock, and of course all over Cyrodiil. Perhaps I’m missing something, I’m going to return to the Imperial city. Perhaps if I meditate in the tranquility of the Temple of the One, hopefully the answers to my vision may be revealed. '

      'Year 201 of the Fourth Era, when I emerged from my meditation the answer wasn’t as clear as I thought. But nonetheless it seems I need to journey to the Northern Province of Skyrim. What I will find there was not revealed to me in my meditation, but there I will find my answers. I don’t have a pass to cross the border but if I tread carefully I just might be able to slip through the pass and sneak by the small town of Helgen. From there I do not know where my path will take me. But Skyrim is where I will find my answers.'

 Nothing could have prepared Matthias for what awaited him in the cold land of  skyrim  …
