D'awww I feel so loved. xD
Name: Veloca
Race: Redguard
Gender: Female
Age: 22
Appearance: Short, about 5'5" with the typical sun-tanned Redguard complexion. Veloca has piercing blue eyes and short, wiry hair with bangs that always seem to fall in her face. In addition to being short, she's very slender and slim, almost scrawny. A series of scars run from just below her right eye across her cheek.
She wears leather armor/clothing, and a thin black scarf hangs loosely around her neck when she isn't fighting.
Combat preference: Veloca is a small, nimble fighter. Being a Redguard, she was born for fighting and is very quick, something which aids her greatly in a fight. She does not rely on brute force to take down an enemy. Instead, she darts around her enemy and waits for the perfect time to make a critical strike against them, and uses their own attributes against them.
She usually fights with two steel daggers, holding one in each hand, although she is adept at fighting without weapons as well.
Bio/History: Veloca has always lived in Riften. Born into a family full of violent and reckless older brothers, she was forced from a young age to fend for herself, whether that meant running and hiding or trying to fight her way out of situations. The fact that her parents only exacerbated the situation at home (her father was an abusive drunkard and her mother was busy "working" outside of the house all day) fueled the anger that was building up in Veloca.
When she was 18, her father came at her after an unusually long drinking bout, chasing her around the house with a dagger and broken bottle. While she was able to avoid the dagger, the bottle caught her on the face, leaving her with a series of small gashes bleeding profusely down her face (these would later form into scars that almost reached her eye). Veloca could no longer contain her anger, and, using the skills she had learned from living with her brothers and the Adrenaline Rush common to her people, was able to take his dagger and plunge it into his heart.
After that, Veloca fled from her home and sought refuge in the sewers underneath the city, which she assumed were empty. Soon after, she discovered the Thieves Guild, and while she did learn a few fighting tips from the members, she has never officially "joined". She performs odd jobs and runs errands for the members, but mostly works at the Ragged Flagon selling drinks.
Personality: Stubborn. Harsh. Unafraid to say what's on her mind. Hardly shows affection (only to Brynjolf, for some reason), even when she considers herself friends with someone. Will never back down from a fight. If you do happen to become close to Veloca, she will guard you with her life. But only if you do not misplace the fragile trust she places in you.
Ok, I think that's it! I may edit it a bit later, but let me know if you think I should change/add anything.

Not at all, Melee. I mean, this RP is bound to be filled with people with troubled pasts. I'll start the thread now.

Garashbur, well, I wanted Caleb to have no family to go back on. It'd just complicate his life as a fighter.

While you may not have meant to "bash" on anyone's character, it certainly sounds like you were trying to, especially when a lot of the characters here have parents who were killed/are dead.
Personally, I don't think there's ever "appeal" to one having dead parents in an RP, but like I said before, it gives the character reason to go on whatever adventure/quest they're part of.
