The year is 4E 51, around fifty years after the Oblivion Crisis and the sacrifice of the last member of the Septim Dynasty, Martin Septim. The Empire has never really been able to capture it's former glory. The Third Aldmeri Dominion was formed and took control of the Summerset Isles and Valenwood with the Empire being too weak to stop them. The whole of Tamriel is strife with conflict and many of the people are in danger. More Bandits than ever before pray on the weak. The Daedra still appear to be strong, despite the efforts of Martin Septim and the Hero of Kvatch. Rumours of unknown elves in the wilderness of Cyrodiil are attacking people without mercy who venture too far off the main paths and much more. These are just some of the problems facing Tamriel at the moment.
This has made it a great time to be a mercenary, who want to become rich. In Cyrodiil an Imperial named Quintus Jannus did exactly that by creating a group called the 'Skingrad Company'. When Quintus was a young man he had started to take jobs and the more he completed, the more people wanted to hire him. After a while he had too many jobs on the table that he couldn't do them all by himself so he started to hire people to work for him. Thirty years later, Skingrad Company has become a well known name around Cyrodiil and certain parts of Tamriel with around thirty people working for them.
When this rp starts, Quintus has received a job from the Count of Skingrad asking the company to look into a farming community called Shardrock after numerous failures to pay their taxes and have given no reason or excuse as to why. For whatever reason you will be one of the mercenaries currently working for Skingrad Company who as been told to meet Quintus in his office to take on this job.
