The year is 4E 206; five years following the events of The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim. Alduin has long since been defeated by the Dragonborn of song and legend. This hero, the Dragonborn, has earned many titles, and fulfilled many deeds, both just and dark. Skyrim, as it would seem, is at peace, other than the Civil War that continues to plague the land.
This particular story begins in Candehearth Hall, an inn within the walls of Windhelm. Windhelm, unfortunately, is just as biggoted as it was five years ago, as the Civil War for Skyrim's freedom still wages on. Five individuals seek to leave Skyrim through Windhelm's port, hoping to find something more promising, more opportunistic beyond the borders of Skyrim. Their plan is to travel across Tamriel in order to find their fortune beyond Skyrim. Though their goals may be different, they must work together in order to find their fortune, or they may all be forgotten...
In this roleplay, five players are required. I, myself, will be participating, leaving room for four others to join me. But first, if you are interested, some ground rules...
*OOC*
No Powerplaying, we are all ordinary, as far as our races go. (And yes, this includes Dragonborn. Sorry.) No mixing of Ooc and Ic feelings or perspectives. Just in general, basic Roleplaying rules apply, Ooc thread for Ooc stuff like profiles and concerns and comments and stuff, Ic thread strictly for roleplaying.During battle scenes, there will be one turn per person. One person posts, then the second, third, fourth and fifth. This is based on who posts their applications in what order on the Ooc thread by default. This rule does not necessarily refer to dialog and actions, in which case, post when you wish, though be sure to post. I would prefer it if everyone posted.Please use proper grammar in your posts. I also request a one paragraph minimum with a three paragraph maximum in your posts. There is a three sentence minimum for paragraphs.*IC*
Violence, blood, gore and language are allowed Icly, though I must ask that ask that language is kept to a mimimum. (Don't curse every other word. Do so when deemed necessary.)Relationships within the group will be allowed, though keep it at a PG-13 rating, okay?You may only injure or kill others in the group with their consent to do so. (Please note that if your character dies, you may always create another one that the group will meet along the way.)

The Road So Far
Synopsis of events will be provided upon departure from Windhelm.
Name: Lysander Fleetwood
Race: Nord/Imperial
Age: 22
Gender: Male
Origin: Bravil, in Cyrodiil
Religious Beliefs: Imperial Pantheon
Class: Thief
Fighting Style: Archery, some limited skill with One-handed weaponry.
Fighting Style Specifics: Lysander usually sneaks when in combat mode so that the enemy will not anticipate his arrival. When found, however, Lysander is not a complete stranger to using one-handed weaponry such as his elven sword and/or dagger.
Weapons: (Will be added soon.)
Affiliations: The Thieves Guild in Riften.
Bio: Born in Bravil, Lysander came to Skyrim in order to find some small fortune through thievery. He was not as lucky in his efforts as he thought he would be, though he became a member of the Thieves Guild and made a bit of proffit. He resolved to find his fortune elsewhere.
Personality: Lysander is a bit of a charmer, though he is sly, if not a bit devious. He acts for those he cares for, provided that he cares for anyone at all.
Appearance: Lysander's face is sharp, though strong. He always seems to have a confident smirk on his face. His eyes are bright green, much like the mark adorning his right cheek.
Lysander is not a large fellow, though he is agile, not unlike an elf. He is almost always seen wearing the armor of the Thieves Guild.
Other: Being that he has always secretly wished to become a bard, he plays the lute quite well.
