Name: Alwaen

Gender: Female

Race: High Elf

Both of her parents died when she was very young, and she was adopted by a noble Thalmor class family after living on the streets for a year. Because of her adopted parents, she became very adept at magic at a young age, and was on the verge of being accepted into the ranks of the Thalmor in her mid twenties.

This is when she decided to stand up for the less magical, poorer high elves, because of her history with no parents. Speaking against the Thalmor was considered illegal, and they labelled her a criminal and gave put a large bounty on her. She then fled the summerset isles. Knowing that Hammerfell had recently won a war of independence from the Empire and the Thalmor, they took a small boat there, and barely survived the trip, but the Redguards would not let her into the country, because of too many other refugees in the same situation, and suspicion of her being a Thalmor spy.

She illegally travelled along the border of Hammerfell and Cyrodil, until they heard news of the Skyrim Civil War. Hoping this would be their final escape from the Thalmor, they fled across the border, but she was caught by an imperial patrol, and loaded on a cart with some Stormcloaks.
