[hider=Vincent Storm-Born]Name: Vincent Storm-Born Gender: Male Age: Approximately 400 Race: Breton/Nord (Vampire) Height: 5'11'' Appearance: [url=http://www.comicbooked.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/Innistrad-Dark-Ascension-Sorin-Markov-611x634.jpg]"Even in death, [/url][url=http://www.komarckart.com/new_03.jpg]you entertain me."[/url] Alliance: While he cares little for the politics at hand, Vincent realizes the threat that the Thalmor pose on a grand scale, and sees the folly in an independent Skyrim. Main Skills (6): Expert: Conjuration, Illusion, Two-Handed Adept: Alteration, Destruction Apprentice: Heavy Armor Armour/Accessories: While it allegedly steals the soul of each of his victims, Vincent's armor is only simple steel of fine quality, intricately engraved and encrusted with rubies. Weapons: Vincent's primary weapon is Blackfang, an enchanted ebony greatsword of Breton design; the blade is of such ill omen that it does not reflect light. Believed to be empowered by the soul of a cannibalistic necromancer, Blackfang steals the life of its victims with every strike. Personality: Vincent's centuries of life have given him an easy confidence, though he is often detached from the perspective of mortals. He spends his time following his whims and fancies, even if they prove to be cruel or deadly. Despite his paranoid and sadistic tendencies, Vincent does feel a sense of responsibility toward Tamriel as a whole, and often takes action to support the greater good. Biography: The son of a Breton noblewoman and a Nord ship-magnate, Vincent spent much of his youth flitting between his mother's villa in Daggerfall and his father's manor in Windhelm. Due to his parents' obligations, he was mostly raised by his maternal grandfather, Edgar Rivoire. A talented mage and esteemed gentleman, Edgar schooled Vincent in the principles of magic and courtesy from a young age. However, Edgar bore a dark secret; for years he had been experimenting with forbidden magic, seeking a means of granting himself immortality. When Vincent was but a young man, Edgar's research came to fruition. In a ritual involving dragon's blood and the petrified remains of an ancient vampire, he turned himself into a true-blooded vampire. Edgar celebrated his success by turning the first of his new lineage: his beloved grandson Vincent. Though he lived for a time as the dark prince of House Rivoire, Vincent grew bored of the mindless slaughter and debauchery of his fellow vampires. Vincent exiled himself and spent many years traversing Tamriel. Over time he came to grips with the advantages his vampires brought him, and sought to make the most of his immortality. He traveled far and wide, learning and experiencing as much as he could. Wherever he found himself, there was always another adventure just around the corner. Throughout the end of the Third Era and the beginning of the Fourth, Vincent has deeply involved himself in the machinations of Tamriel, dedicating himself to its preservation. After all, it's Damon difficult to have a good time if there's nowhere to explore. Moral Weakness/Character Flaw(s): Despite his obvious traits as a cannibal, murderer and necromancer, Vincent also bears numerous other perversions that bring him pleasure, too numerous and often too vile to recount. Other: The dragon cults of ancient Skyrim have piqued Vincent's interest as of late, and rumor has it that he has been trying to teach himself the Thu'um. [/hider]
