    I don't know. I guess all the full helms have "compress beast face" enchantments on them since Morrowind.

    But really, I guess all the Swiftails have shallower faces than other Argonians? Man I don't know, willing suspension of disbelief.

    Reposting this here so my other post isn't super long:

    Thane Shadow is an incredibly non-Argonian name. Argonian names are something vaguely tribal sounding OR are given in a "Verbs-Many-Nouns" sort of way. Here's a list for reference. It's also fairly bland and cliche.

    http://elderscrolls.wikia.com/wiki/C...rim:_Argonians

    You also gave very little information about his appearance, like his height, body build, scars, war paint, notable facial features, etc.

    The term you're looking for is "Regeneration" and this ability seems incredibly broken. People from this Shadow clan (an incredibly bland clan name that is also rather non-Argonian) can apparently heal themselves of serious injury at will, and the only drawback of it is that it makes them live longer (which is not by any means a drawback). You made several glaring grammatical errors in your history, all of which I have highlighted for your benefit. The writing is very sloppy and your history is basically one very big run-on sentence. The second sentence of your history only addresses your character's personality and should be in its own section.

    The Skills section of the CS applies to skills that are actually a part of the Elder Scrolls game series, like Light Armor, One-handed, Alchemy, etc. Assassination and Regeneration are not a part of that skill set.

    You've also forgotten to add a minor skills section, and you've erroneously added a gear section as well. However, I do agree that it's probably a good idea to have a gear section so people aren't magically pulling stuff out of nowhere. I think you should seriously consider adding one of those to the character sheet, Maya.

    What really grinds my gears is that your actual history is 95% about Thane's clan and not about Thane himself. Just look. I highlighted the stuff about his clan in red and the stuff about Thane is green:

    Thane is the last of his clan of Assassin's Known as the Shadow clan, raised from a egg they knew how to fight and adapt in every part of Tamriel but what made Thane's Clan so uniqie and that was the Clan's trademark ability and that's Regeration with it they were able to recover injurys that they took in battle and freak accidents but it did have a cost, when it's used it makes the person live longer judging by the wound, but even with that abillity they were all killed by someone who betrayed the clan and had them all killed, but that's all just a memory now to Thane because he was only a child at the time and he used his Regeneration once in his life and that was at the clan was killed.
    I excluded the last sentence because, once again, it's technically personality and not history. Oh, and in case I didn't make it clear enough, remember that this is all just one long, run-on sentence.

    It's not a good sign when you can literally tell us not one thing that defines Thane as his own character. Everything that's about him ties back to his clan. What about his life? His dreams? His aspirations? His childhood? How was he raised? Did he like his parents? What's his favorite color? ANYTHING! You've told us nothing about Thane himself, or his ambitions or motivations, which means it's impossible for us to care about him as a character because there's nothing for us to care about.

    It seems like you put very little effort into this profile, honestly. I don't really know if this RP's right for you. I don't want to sound elitist, but it seems like you'd be better off in Free.

    I'm not even sure that I will include racial skills for the same reason i'll not allow shouts. Stupid potential with the whole "god-modding" thing. I don't know about you all, but I certainly don't like my Rp's getting ruined.

    I'll work on an IC soon. I am....very busy this weekend unfortunately.

    I will be adding somethings to the OOC because I feel that they need to be explained.

    - - - Updated - - -

    I will be playing two characters at once actually. Just because I like Redguards and Imperials equally....

    Also, yeah more for the Dominion is good. Also, if someone would PM me ideas for the storyline, that would be cool. I'm open to including ideas from other people into the RP.
    "Who we are I'll never know
    But when we spoke I knew you well
    You knew me well
    You loved me through and through
    I never thought I would watch you leave us
    From a room as a kid I held so close
    I was a son made up on sand
    You were the wind that let me go
    I'll say goodbye
    So this is goodbye
    But I'm afraid to speak
    So with words I'll tell the story
    You meant so much to me
    And like the night upon nights to come
    I will dream of you
    And know that I will see you seen
    Give me the strength to carry on!
    Tide!
    You are the ocean tide!
    The swells swept you away
    I was a son made of sand
    You were the wind that let me go
    When the ocean tide has risen to high
    And the waters have come to carry you away
    Remember I will always be there to sing you to sleep....."

    Also, I linked the OOC in the OP.

    Post your approved CS there.

    Silver, your character is approved. As is anyone else that has a complete CS.

    Righto, ol' chap. I'll whip up a protagonist CS once I figure out what I want to play as. Hmmmm, Orcish unarmed monk, wandering swordsman or charismatic rogue...

    The right man in the wrong place can make all the difference in the world.
