_{Asexual - Lesbian}

_{__________ A P P E R A N C E __________}

<sub>With dark brown hair and brown eyes, Imani stands at 5'7 tall with a slender figure. Even as a child, Imani had trouble gaining weight, and while she lived in Utasi, she was always colder than the rest of the kids. Imani's hair reached down to her shoulders when it's left in it's naturally curly. Although he tends to straighten it and treat it, she has begun to accept her curly hair since moving to Massylii.

Imani has gone through some drastic fashion changes over the past two years. She went from wearing long boring, and heavy dresses with furs and leathers to light, airy, and colorful clothing. While she lived in Utasi, she was not allowed to wear pants, but here in Massylii, she takes every opportunity to wear them. Anything from jeans to trousers and even shorts. Imani loves shorts.</sub>

_{__________ P E R S O N A L I T Y __________}

<sub>Like the people of Utasi, Imani grew up to be a calculating, cunning, and manipulative person. Imani doesn't know weakness, at least that is what she makes herself believe. Growing up, Imani had to keep everything in check and hidden from anyone and everyone. If she showed an ounce of emotion towards her teachers of half-siblings, they would exploit that. As a defense, Imani just stopped showing any emotion at all. She feels like any person does, but now she doesn't convey those feelings at all. Keeps everything locked up behind a cold persona.

Behind her ice wall, Imani is a kind and loving woman who is afraid to get hurt. Her loyalty to a person may be hard to come by, but when she loves someone, she loves them to the fullest. There is no half-assing anything in her books, and that includes ruling a kingdom or being a friend.

Now Imani only wished she had friends.</sub>

_{__________ B I O G R A P H Y__________}

<sub>Born out of wedlock, Imani's existence has always been a bother to her and everyone around her. Her father, King Oscar of Utasi, and her mother, an unknown woman, fell in love at first sight and decided it was a good idea fuck. Nine months later, Imani, the bastard child, was born. Her mother vanished into thin air, and she was left in the cold Pale Palace of Utasi to live out the rest of her life around a Queen that hated her guts and half-siblings that pretended she wasn't there.

Everyone in the Pale Palace ignored Imani's existence. Her father was the only kind soul she had as she grew up. Her teachers, tutors, and nannies only tolerated her because she was the daughter of their King and only that. She was no Princess, her father's wife always reminded her of that when she had the chance. Imani was just a bastard child who had been lucky enough that her father was kind enough to let her live in the palace with the rest of them.

Growing up had been torture. Imani was constantly reminded of her position under the crown. Imani drowned herself in books, studies, art, and music to distract her from the empty feeling in her chest. She knew she didn't belong in the Pale Palace, or even in Utasi. The people looked nothing like her. They were too pale, too cold and too distant. She longed for the warmth of the sun and the sound of the waves.

On her eighteen birthday, the emptiness in Imani's chest was filled. A man claiming to be from the Kingdom of Massylii came to the Pale Palace, announcing that Imani Kore was the only blood heir of King Kareem of Massylii; her mother's twin brother. Suddenly Imani was a Crowned Princess, and everything was thrown out of place. She left Utasi shortly after saying goodbye to her father, who knew that one day, Imani would leave him for her mother's land.

Two years later and living in the warmth of Massylii, Imani has yet to get used to the idea of being an heir to the throne. Her uncle, with no children of his own, had welcomed Imani as his own and made her feel welcomed. He made sure to get her acquainted with the people of the land, the business, everything that would prepare her to be the next Queen of Massylii.

Best of all, Imani felt like she belonged in Massylii. The warmth. The ocean. Her mother's possessions. There was still a part of her that missed the cold, snowy mountains of Utasi and his father.</sub>

Zhao Raiden of Xi'n

_{"Little by little, the old world crumbled, and not once did the king imagine that some of the pieces might fall on him." - Unknown}

_{__________ S E X U A L I T Y __________}

_{__________ A P P E R A N C E __________}

<sub>Raiden is a well-built man standing at 6'3 with an athletic build, well-defined muscles, and rather long hair. He has light brown eyes, courtesy of his mother, and a well-defined jaw covered in well-groomed stubble. Raiden's hair is his most priced and best feature, according to him anyway. He stopped cutting it shortly after his tenth birthday and only trims it a few times a year to keep it healthy.

Raiden dresses in formal wear most of the time. Suits and traditional clothing from Xi'An. He likes to keep his hair down during informal outings or while he is at home. When traditional clothing or formal events are required, he wears his hair up in a but or braids to keep it off his face.

His color palette varies by occasion, mood, and location. The one thing that stays true is that Raiden loves to wear dark colors with a pop of bright thrown in there to mix it up a bit.</sub>

_{__________ P E R S O N A L I T Y __________}

<sub>Raiden is a man of principles and morals first then science and rationality after. As a Prince, he cares for his people and future kingdom. He wishes the best for those at the bottom who do not have enough while still caring for those at the top who have enough to solve everything wrong in Xi'An. He is rational to think that everything wouldn't be solved so easily, but wishful enough to hope it would. By nature, he is empathetic by nature towards those he calls close and strangers alike. He understands, forgives, and moves on.

Raiden is a charismatic man who loves to talk to people as much as he likes to listen to them. Although he loves to run his mouth, he is very selective of what he says to certain people. Raiden is calm and collected, polite, and well-mannered. Raiden could be the best liar. The perfect heir, and the most miserable.</sub>

_{__________ B I O G R A P H Y__________}

<sub>Raiden is the only son of King Zhao Kousoke and Queen Zhao Ren, making him the only heir to the throne and the only one who must continue the Zhao bloodline. Ever since Raiden was born, Queen Ren knew that he would be her only child. Because of that, she was determined to give her son everything to make him the best man, and King, the nation of Xi'n, would have the pleasure to witness.

As Queen Ren had determined since the day he was born, Raiden received the best education Xi'An had to offer along with Wester tutors to help a growing boy expand his knowledge of the outside world. There were many tutors from different kingdoms who came and educated little Raiden on their own history and broad views. His mother said it would help him stay objective and expand his outlook on life and learn from other cultures.

At a young age, Raiden showed skills in music, math, and literature that continued to carry on to his youth and teenage years. While his studies were perfect in the eyes of his mother, King Zhao Kousoke thought otherwise. Education was not the only way to rule a kingdom, and so the king saw it fit that Prince Raiden would accompany him to every meeting and hearing he had. He was encouraged to speak with older people about current events and practice diplomacy with other rules. All of the work put Raiden in so much stress, but the King and Queen failed to notice it.

By the time Raiden was in his late teens, he finally accepted the fact that he had to be the best for Xi'n to prosper. He began to see the neglect of the common people of Xi'n from his father and the inability to raise awareness from his mother. They were both loving parents, but they were not the great rules Raiden always thought they were. They ignored the rising poverty and the crime in the poor areas of the country and put more importance on business deals with other kingdoms. They spent money on more buildings while people in Kai and the other islands starved.

Raiden decided at an early age to change that when he became king. In the meantime, Raiden began several charities and donated large amounts towards the effort to get many residents of Xi'n out of poverty. The crown stood behind him, of course, but his father couldn't help but dismiss most of the importance away in favor of more money.

Dismissal from his family was something Raiden was accustomed to. He may be the sole heir to Xi'n, but his parents were still the King and Queen with busy lives. He was mostly raised by various nannies and tutors throughout his life and only saw his parents during important occasions or arranged meetings. Raiden never blamed them or resented them for it; he just grew up to live like that.

So as he grew up in an environment where education was always first, and there was little time to one's self, the sudden freedom of college took Raiden by surprise. He finally had time to discover himself and who he was as a person, but he simply didn't know how to. The concept of free time seemed alien to him that for his first year, he did nothing but study in his room and avoid the media as best as he could. Slowly but surely, Raiden began to discover bits of himself little by little. Every party he attended to, he found himself looking at other men dance while he ignored the women who would dote over him. He never mentioned it to anyone, and he never acted upon those feelings until his last year of college.

Everything had been purely physical and quick, but after it, Raiden knew who he was and who he wanted. Unfortunately, there would be no future there. Raiden was the only son of King Zhao Kousoke and Queen Ren, and he had to continue the Zhao bloodline.</sub>

_{__________ G E O G R A P H Y __________}

_{Located east of the mainland of Asia, Xi'n is a county composed of several islands of various sizes. The main island, Kai, has two large mountains and an inactive volcano in the center. While Kai is the main island, there are about four more that are half the size of Kai and a few others that would be able to fit a city.}

_{__________ R E P U T A T I O N __________}

<sub>The United Isles of Xi'n is best known for the mixture of traditional and modern, large skyscrapers, and crazy rich Asians. Xi'n is a proud nation that holds close ties with its long history that traces back to the First Dynasty of China. Due to this, Xi'An has various temples, palaces, and historic buildings and areas still standing amongst the sea of breathtaking skyscrapers, large neon signs, and the everlasting buzz of the city. These historic sights attract tourists from the West who marvel at the historical sights and enjoy a dip in the Pacific that surrounds the Islands.

Xi'n is also known for its grand scale buildings, city-like shopping centers, and vibrant exotic gardens. Throughout the main island of Xi'n, there are various gardens dedicated to multiple countries from the East and West alike. Why leave Xi'An when you can have the world in Xi'n? The country is an expert in recreating gardens from other countries and ecosystems. Their most famous garden is a South American garden inspired by the nation of Nevarrea and another by the cold Austerund.

It is no secret that Xi'n is a wealthy country, and the kingdom loves to flaunt it while ignoring the rise in poverty by the common people. They are good at hiding that fact and will continue to do so until their little bubble pops.</sub>

_{__________ H I S T O R Y __________}

<sub>- It is not sure who were the first people in Xi'n, but historians are certain people from the mainland in East Asia migrated to the Isles of Xi'n around 100,000 years ago.
- During the Bronze Area, people began to live closer together to form towns and small cities, but the islands continued to live in isolation from one another.
- Around the middle of the Bronze Age, the islands around Kai began to unite against the growing threat of pirates from the mainland. With this union, they formed Xi'n
- The newly formed and united Xi'n fought against pirates and slowly began to open trade with the mainland around the mid-1000s
- Around the early 14th century, invaders from the mainland began to invade Xi'n. Unable to protect themselves, the people of Xi'n surrendered
- The invaders did not last long in Xi'n as they were kicked out through various battles called the Golden War, were Xi'n warriors used gold to lure the enemy into traps and kill them.
- By the late 14th century, Xi'n was a more strongly united nation, and shortly after, their golden age began. Art, music, architecture, and literature began to boom in the kingdom. Trade had also been a major play during this area.
- Xi'n continued to trade throughout the years bringing in new ideas from other countries and kingdoms and applying those ideas to everyday life
- Around the 17th century Xi'n had become a booming trade nation with many visitors from Europe and other parts of the world all coming to see the island of Kai grow from one small city to a grand island.
- While the country prospered, there was inner turmoil in the royal palace of Kai. There were plans to overthrow the current king, who the people deemed weak for allowing so many westerners into the city. In 1589 King Xuan and his family were over thrown by the king's younger brother and sent on exile to the mainland.
- Rule under the new King was strict that his reign decreased trade with other countries, bringing a decrease of wealth to the nation. Seeing this, the King sent out for his older brother to return and open up trade again. The older brother returned years later with an army to take back his throne. He had no mercy for the younger man and executed him.
- Since then, Xi'n has remained an open trade nation, welcoming anyone who has the money and wares to trade and make business in Xi'n.
- The country has not been a part of any war and remain neutral. Their military presence is small, but their defense technology is one of the best. Their main income is realestate and software,</sub>

_{__________ R E L I G I O N __________}

_{The main religion of Xi'n is Buddhism, but there are quite a lot that have been living in the islands of Xi'n in harmony for thousands of years now. The main three are Buddhism, Christianity, and Islam. The royal family is Buddhist by default.}

_{__________ M I S C __________}

<sub>- Although Xi'n is a very technological advance country, their poverty numbers have been on the rise since the early 2000s.
- It is a popular place to film action movies due to the grand skyscrapers. The city skyline of Kai is famous now.</sub>

Elder Scrolls: Skingrad Company

Jarett Nazir V'urdki

"So you tell me we didn't do anything yesterday?" Jarett stared at the half-naked man standing at the foot of his bed. His eyes wandered over the man's broad shoulders down to his defined biceps and back up to his face when said man cleared his throat. "What?"

"You fell asleep," the unnamed man shrugged a shoulder as he slipped on his uniform britches on. "You were pretty drunk," another shrug.

"Ah, shit, shouldn't have done that competition against that woman then," Jarett fell back on the bed and closed his eyes with a small groan. Well, it wasn't the worst morning ever, by a long shot, but he was also not happy; nothing had happened the night before. Either way, he probably wouldn't have remembered much if something had. "I guess I owe you... you." Shit his name.

The man ran a hand through his blonde hair and rolled his eyes at Jarett's direction, of course. "Percy. My name is Percy." he had already slipped on most of his attire while Jarett continued to whine on the bed. Funny seeing someone who called themselves a sellsword act in such a childish way. "Although, it will have to wait until you come back from your little mission,"

"Mission?" Jarett sat up again to look at Percy.

"The Skingrad Company? You kept going on and on about it last night--"

Jarett groaned loudly and fell back on the bed before kicking his feet a bit. "I forgot!" He sat up again to see Percy turning around and walking out of the door. "Wait, how do I find you?" He called out after the man.

"Don't worry, I know when you'll be back," Percy said before closing the door behind him, helmet tucked under his arm.

---

Jarett took another hour to get ready and eat a quick breakfast of bread and cheese before making his way back to the Company's headquarters. While he had been accepted a while ago, he hadn't really wanted to stay in their sleeping quarters. Sure, he had a bed for him there, but it was rare to see him in it. Jarett was only there during the day and went out at night to mingle with some of the locals. He never really liked staying in one place for long since he had been on the move. He didn't know exactly why. Maybe some of people in the Company didn't really sit well with him. Especially those that liked to brood around or acted shifty, or liked to pretend they were the toughest shits around.

The walk to the headquarters had been pretty quiet. Jarett had bought an apple on his way and was snacking on it as he made his way to his destination. He shot friendly grins towards those in the Company he knew, and a few winks sprinkled here and there to those who didn't like him much. The way they scowled at him always made him grin even more. So when he opened the door to the meeting room, he greeted everyone with a cheery smile.

"Morning everyone, hope I'm not too late. He shot Flavia and Kalon a wink since they looked just about done. "Looks like some of us woke up on the wrong side of the bed," he made his way next to the nervous looking Dunmer and continued to snack on his delicious apple as he waited for the great Quintus to start.

Jarett Nazir V'urdki
| Race |
Redguard
| Sex |
Male
| Age |
28

---

| Appearance |
Jarett stands shorter than most Redguards, just gracing the six-foot mark. While he is not built like the usual Redguard, Jarett still sports some muscles on him that stay hidden under his beautiful coats and furs. His hair is often kept brushed and cleaned, and two golden earrings hang from his right ear. His eyes are both a different color, which he likes to flash around and flirt with anyone who he sees fit. Which is pretty much anyone. The tattoos on his face and hands are part of a large set that extends over his chest, back, arms and legs. When asked about them, he changes the story every time, like it's just a game to him.
| Personality |
A friendly fellow with no sense of danger or just pure naiveness. While Jarett knows of the cruelties and struggles of the world, he tends to turn the other cheek and see the brighter side of thigs. Growing up, he had to fight the constant glares of his father, and he coped with it by simply ignoring his problems and shoving them to the back of his mind. By doing this and not giving much care to anything around him, it has made him an easygoing person who cannot take certain things too seriously, which can annoy people in the long run.

While he is very open and honest, he keeps secrets closed to his heart while giving the impression that he is an opened book. Jarett is good with his words and lied roll off his tongue like nothing. A nice skill to have when you are on the road.

| History |
Jarett was born to a noble couple in the kingdom of Elinhir in Hammerfell. He was the fourth child and third boy to be born into his family. As a child, Jarett was considered weak and fragile with no future in fighting or wielding a weapon. He was nothing like his older brothers that showed promising signs of being great warriors like his father. Instead, Jarett stayed indoors enjoying the company of his mother, a prominent member of the Blackcaster Mages Guild. He learned from her what he could from her before she passed while giving birth to his sister. After that, his father became distant and cold to everyone in the family except his sister. Jarett saw no reason to continue to stay in a family where he was ignored so he took what he could carry in his back(and quite a bit of coin) and traveled around Hammerfell for a few years where he sought adventure and a purpose. Jarett thought it was the will of his ancestors that led him to Cyrodiil or maybe it was the need for change. He's not too sure.

Not too later he found himself entangled with the Skingrad Company, serving as one of their new members with very little training. He hopes that with a company such as this one, he will be able to learn to fight with the two sabers he stole from his father and finally prove himself. The last bit of ambition he has.
