Appearance:
Personality: Xxaga is cold, unfeeling, and has questionable morals. This is not the side of her that shows, though. Outwardly, she is kind, smiley, and a very good person.
Biography: Xxaga was born and raised in a little-known region of Nirn far to the north of Tamriel where she was literally the only Nord. When she was 16, she migrated to Skyrim and was surprised to see that there were more of her kind in the world. At a loss, she eventually settled in Riften, but was forced out a few years later when the rebellion started. Due to her accent and foreign origin, she was not considered a True Nord, and the Stormcloaks drove her out of Riften. Other brutalities were committed against her before being driven out (they were a bit graphic and mature, so I'll not mention them here), which may have been responsible for her current disposition and intense hatred of the Stormcloaks.
Xxaga then found herself in Whiterun, which was more open to foreigners than the Stormcloaks. She vowed to exact revenge on the Stormcloaks for treating her the way they did. After training for a while with the Companions, and aiding them with an internal situation of theirs and gaining entry into the Circle, becoming a werewolf, she traveled to Solitude and joined the Legion. While there, she proved to be an excellent soldier, and swiftly rose to the rank of Legate. She received an ebony waraxe for this, but soon upgraded it with a method she stumbled on. After melting it down and forging it again, she cooled it in the blood of a Daedra, which made the metal stronger and let it hold an edge for much longer, yet be easy to sharpen. This is the weapon she uses regularly.
She then took to killing dragons when they began to return. Xxaga would collect their bones, cutting them from the carcass. Since she wasn't Dragonborn, they weren't rendered skeletal upon death. When she had enough bones, she crafted a suit of armor from them, and it was stronger than most armors she'd worn. This is the equipment set she used ever since, and she's built up a reputation for being one of the best mercenaries in the Hold of Whiterun.
Name: Lai'Quir
Age: Unknown
Gender: Female
Race: Khajiit
Class: Assassin/Thief
Current Residence: Unknown
Belief/Religion: She reveres the Daedric Prince, Nocturnal.
Titles/Honorifics: Nightingale; Agent of Shadow
Profession: Professional Thief
Attributes: Stealth, Agility, Speech
Skills: Sneak, Lockpick, Pickpocket, Archery, Light Armor, One-Handed
Weaponry: Dwarven Dagger, Nightingale Blade, Nightingale Bow, Ebony Arrows
Vernacular: Common
Mannerisms: Enigmatic, shadowy, manipulative
Morals: None
Appearance: The majority of the time, her features are masked by her Nightingale Armor. However, she'll occasionally remove its leather mask to reveal extremely dark brown tabby markings. The markings are so dark that they're almost black, and the stripes actually are black.
Personality: Lai'Quir is very shadowy and mysterious. She talks in a very heavy accent, and refers to herself in the third person like many Khajiit do. The way she talks reveals much information, yet none. She is open, yet withdrawn. To summarize, this mysterious Khajiit is just that: mysterious. Those that know her have often stated that she is one of the most enigmatic people they know, and they are never sure if she's lying or telling the truth. For with Lai'Quir, you can never know what her true motive or meaning is.
Biography: Lai'Quir is a mystery, and her history is no different. She mysteriously appeared in Riften, not being noticed by anyone until she got to the Ragged Flagon Inn in the Ratway. It was assumed she was seen there because she wanted to be seen, but nobody really knows. All they know is that she's a damn good thief.
She turned out a lot of profit for the Guild, and when a betrayal was apparent, she was the one chosen to investigate. It was discovered that the current Guildmaster, Mercer Frey, had killed the previous Guildmaster and defiled the Spire. Even though the Guild prefers to not kill, it was decided that Mercer was to be killed. Lai'Quir delivered the final blow not long after achieving Nightingale status along with Brynjolf. She has since been a thief-for-hire, traveling the whole of Skyrim for work. The Guild is still in need of a Master, however, but for now, Brynjolf is filling the role. Lai'Quir has no desire for leadership, or so it would seem. For with Lai'Quir, you never know.
