In Skyrim, my first character won't have any interesting background. Just some typicial Nord living in a village (not in Skyrim), decides to go to head over to Skyrim, gets cuaght, and so the events of Skyrim unfold. On my second playthrough my character will have a more interesting background. I don't feel like writing an essay, so I'll just summarise it. My character is a so far nameless male Nord who's village in the Jerral Mountains was pillaged by marauders and was the only survivor besides his grandfather, a highly skilled warrior, and former mercenary. My character's grandfather would train my character in various forms of combat till his death, and from there, my character will kill those responsible for the attack who still live. He heads over to Skyrim to begin a normal life, unaware that he could be executed for that. He is caught by gaurds, and from there, the events of Skyrim begin.
