[@Hank] So boss, I scrapped my idea of a cleric, I'm thinking now of a Nord Witchhunter who would have extensive knowledge in all things occult (Daedra, Vampires, Werewolves, Draugur, etc) and have a decent knowledge of magic itself. Perhaps she would be contracted out by the Empire to assist on this mission?

Well, that's kinda similar to what I was going for, actually. A Nord who spent some time as a soldier in the Imperial Legion during Skyrim's civil war. They got wounded too badly to continue fighting in the military and decided to study magic for a few years and take up life as a spellsword sellsword (heh) before deciding their fighting ability and knowledge of Restoration magic would be better spent serving the Vigilants of Stendarr. Now they spend their time fighting daedra and other monsters.
