I can see Igfrid and J'zhid going at it about where he "acquired" certain things. J'zhid isn't quite as "morally correct" as Igfrid.

Nah, you've overestimated her own morals. Keep in mind she's a merc; she's had to twist her ideals around a fair bit. You've also underestimates just how mellow Igfrid really is. Hell, despite being a Nord, she's still going to be calm and warm and friendly to the bloody Thalmor that we might be seeing!

She's not...naive, in a sense, and doesn't believe in the "best of everybody", but her initial reaction to anything new is to just be chilled and laid back and look a bit slow in thought whilst she watches the heck out of them, listens, gets information...

...Think 'Slim', form Of Mice and Men. I based Igfrid's personality off of him - he's said to be rather slow in speech but very thoughtful. He says he can tell a mean guy from a mile off, and doesn't approve of mean guys. If J'zhid was a cruel murderer, then maybe Iggy and him will have some issues in the future, but stealing things? I doubt she'll care much. She doesn't like the Jarls and 'upper class' society too much. They might end up becoming best buds.

Hopefully people's characters won't feel mollycoddled by Ig's protecting nature too...I'm aiming for a near family tie with most of the people in the Odd Jobs. Someone they can rely on. Because I need them to trust Igfrid and trust her quick, because she's got one helluva secret; her lycanthropy. She needs to be pretty close to the others before she shapeshifts or else she's going to get hunted down and killed.

Hehe, looks like Igfrid's the oldest of the lot! She;ll be that responsible big sister to all you young'uns.

Ah right, didn't notice them! Thalmor, too. At least Igfrid will be calm and warm and friendly. She's so laid back she's practically horizontal.

-Placeholder for Sheet-Lot of women in this roleplay. I expected nothing less from anime.

Actually, there's 3 women and 2 men so far. It's pretty even at the moment.

I'm excited to start! \o/

EDIT: I -think- I've finished my CS! Hopefully people can go into Igfrid's life a bit more, and find out about her past, because plot development. \o/

The Elder Scrolls: Souls of Many Shades

Name: Igfrid
Aliases: Ig, Iggy, "Fuzzface"
Race: Nord
Gender: Female
Age: 31
Appearance: A short, stocky woman with thick pale blonde hair that is usually plaited back into a shoulder length to keep it out of her face, with warm and friendly features and freckled skin burnt by the sun reflected off of the snow. She usually wears the iron armour whenever she is required on a fighting mission, and it provides protection to the vital areas without impeding her movement. All of her clothes seem too big for her, usually held together with lots of straps in odd places. Her eyes are an unnaturally bright golden colour. She bears no scars.

Faction: The Odd Jobs (Part-time worker), Independent (The Companions)
Weapons: Herself, a sword, and usually whatever she can pick up at the time. Melee only.
Magics: N/A
Equipment/Items: Clothes, armour, a bag, empty vials, water skin, mead flask, old food, barely any coins.
Personality:

Despite the strong appearance, Igfrid is actually quite warm and calm and complacent. Her nonchalance is almost infectious, and she rarely ever starts to panic in the face of danger. Her slow speech is weaved with a wiser understanding and sympathy from which she had achieved only through being the listener to many tales and many people. Her tranquil silence opened conversation without interruption, and she moves with a grace that could only be possible for someone who is completely and wholly understanding on her own limitations, how far she can be pushed, her doubts and her flaws.

It's strange, therefore, that Igfrid seems to be in the place she is in. As a Companion, she's known for being a low-wage but morally correct mercenary, and she has been seen at home in even the most seediest of bars in Riften. For someone with such a high intelligence and polite manner, it'd be impossible to figure out why she isn't sitting upon the highest thrones, drinking mulled wine with the Jarls and wearing finery that most women would be jealous of.

Many, many rumours surround Igfrid, who is known by many and understood by few, connecting her with an upper class Nordic family name of Telmjr, for it is said that 20 years ago they lost their one and only daughter, taken away by Udefrykte trolls in the dead of night at the age of 11. The only evidence that these people have, however, is the fact that nobody knows about her past and the fact that the two ages match up. The rumours are constant, but seem irrelevant.

Good luck! We can wait, don't worry!

Pokémon: In The Shadow Of A Rainbow

Elizabeth watched with an intensity shown by very few. There was a fire in her eyes that was showing, quite clearly, that she cared a lot for her Pokémon and even though Grumpig was clearly a skilled medical Pokémon, Elizabeth had tensed, getting ready to pounce on him if he so much as grazed Misdreavus by accident. Misdreavus lay in her lap, out cold and unmoving, as each barb was methodically removed. Elizabeth's hand wrapped around the end of her short, stubby arm, as if she was holding Misdreavus' hand to comfort the little thing.

It seemed that Elizabeth wouldn't even eat the Pecha berry, which was borderline stupid, but as soon as the last barb from Misdreavus was removed she took small, polite nibbles. Elizabeth pulled a face - even though she was in pain, sprawled on the floor, slowly slipping into unconsciousness from a poison...she still had time to be fussy about her food. At least she didn't have the gall to complain about the taste.

She too felt the odd, infinite stretch of time in her head. Whilst Rudy could busy himself with his own thoughts - at least, that's what Elizabeth assumed, since he certainly wasn't focusing much on the task at hand - Elizabeth had nothing to think about. Her mind was just as blank as her features, and all she could focus on was the pain, and the worry for Misdreavus - but even now, after worrying for so long, the tightening of her chest and the urge to hyperventilate and fall into hysterics became almost second-hand. As was said before; each second did stretch out forever whilst wounded.

Another thought probed the inside of her mind. She started to wonder where the Professor was and why she wasn't being treated with an antidote yet. Idly, Elizabeth shifted her weight; it was a good thing she was wounded since she really, really felt like telling her father about this situation...but unfortunately, she couldn't move her limbs a lot to do so. "Besides," thought Elizabeth glumly, "He's probably in a meeting."

Pokémon: In The Shadow Of A Rainbow

Ah, no, there is nothing I want to add about that. I thought the professor would be back by now. ^^"

Edit! I'll post something, changed my mind.

EDIT AGAIN: Posted.

Also, Raddum, post when ready. I'll pass on this turn.
