Firstname - Neytsana
Surname - /
Title - None earned so far, and she is not the type to give herself one.
Sex - Female
Race - Khajiit
Age - 18
Occupation - Thief, on her way to become an assassin.
Faction - Aldmeri Dominion
Appearance - She is 5'9'' tall and weighs about 145lbs. Neytsana isn't very muscular, but she has some arm- and leg-muscles, due to traveling (she prefers to walk rather than take carriages, exploring is one of the few things she enjoys) and bow training, the bow being her favorite weapon. She has very dark fur, even in the light it appears almost pitch black, which makes her green eyes stand out even more. Her aunt always made jokes about her turning nocturnal, because there would be no way people wouldn't spot her during day time. Because Neytsana got bored of her plain black fur during the age of 16, she let a green pattern be made all over her body. Due to her occupation she's mostly dressed in light armor, which she refuses to take off, except for when she washes it as well as herself. There are some small scars on her body, leftovers from fights or traps she couldn't avoid.
Personality - Neytsana is pretty pessimistic, and that comes, at least if you'd ask her, from her honesty towards herself. She would never pretend that something is good when in fact it isn't. That this attitude is the reason why she always only sees the bad in people hasn't occurred to her yet. All that is making her rather reserved or brutally honest towards others. Sarcasm is one of the few things that make her laugh and happy, at least for a couple of seconds, but her favorite thing to do would be getting up and starting to explore. Though she doesn't sympathize with people very often, she's strongly against pointless cruelty, for example hurting (innocent and not-vampire) children. Pointless cruelty is next to rape something that will piss her of a lot, even though she's rather hard to really get worked up. Her biggest flaw might be her stubbornness, but she also isn't that gentle, often grumpy, self-hating and very secretive. Though she is distrustful she is also very faithful at the same time, her other two best features are being sly and almost as curious as a child that wants to find out about everything this world has to offer.
Social Background - Her father was Ri'Khaat (Do'Khaat during his warrior times), the leader of a group of travelling merchants, an experienced, elderly Khajiit with a slight mischievous look in the eyes. He was barely ever seen without Shana, his wife, an alchemist, a rather calm, motherly healer-type. Their family came neither out of aristocracy nor were related to the manes, but they were a respected warrior-family, though they're also known for their dark skills. The whole dark part of the family didn't come from her parents, but mostly from her aunt and uncle, who were very well known for the things they could do and did.
Best Memory - Her best memory is actually a rather early memory. She remembers her mother singing to her, her father saying something from the corner of their tent and then her mother again, laughing carefree. Neytsana is pretty sure, that this is actually her earliest memory as well.
Worst Memory - When she was eight years old, there were problems with Skooma in their camp, just before the night the group wanted to take the last ship from Dawnstar back to Senchal, passing Morrowind and the Black Marsh. Their caravan was one of the last ones traveling across Tamriel, though the war was slowly coming closer, which is why they wanted to leave Skyrim the next day anyway. All the racial hate stopped the Nord-Soldiers from asking who really sold the Skooma in Dawnstar and they just unleashed it upon their group, killing everybody except Neytsana and her aunt, who escaped with the ship. This is actually the memory that affected her the most and this is the reason, why she had almost lost her old self at the age of eighteen, luckily she was able to keep her curiosity and loyalty.
Skills - Neytsana is really good at sneaking and alchemy, okay at lockpicking and not that good at pickpocketing. Right now she's off to learn everything about assassinating.
Challenges for the Character - She hasn't faced any life-threads yet (if you ignore her worst memory), but she has the personal struggle of not becoming ruthless every day. There's a small, silent hope she has for herself, that one day, she might be able to ease up and let go of all the dark memories.
Birthsign - The Thief
Religious Views - She has pretty much lost all her faith, though she does have some respect for religions that haven't gone totally mad and started sacrificing people and such.
Politics Views - She is rather happy to be in the Aldmeri-Dominion, since there are no humans involved in it. She can't really remember any Bretons or Redguards, but she has a very absolute opinion on Nords. She doesn't really care about Argonians and Orcs and never understood what was going on with the Altmer/Bosmer against the Dunmer, but to be honest, she didn't care either.

Okay guys, this is it for Neytsana so far. There is some more stuff about her in the "Character Building: 100 Questions!"-topic, if you want to, go check it out. I'm also planning on writing some fan-fiction, including her backstory, which is why I didn't tell that story so extensively. I'll maybe even add some pictures =)
