PART 1


The last thing I remember is a member of the Imperial Guard staring down at me. He was glaring (although I couldn't really be sure, as his helmet was blocking my view of everything) at me, with a sword in his hand, and a shield strapped to his arm.
It was then that I passed out.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~



When I came to, I was lying on a small, uncomfortable cot. In a jail cell.

Not good, I thought. Not good at all. I had never been the follow-the-law-to-the-ends-of-Tamriel type, of course, but I knew a few basic rules.

1: Do not get put in jail.

Well, okay, that's the only one I know. But still.

"Ahh, you're a pretty one, aren't you? A Nord, no? But it is all wasted. You're going to die in here! Don't you see? Die, Nord, die!"

The blue-skinned Dunmer ranted on for some time, his loud voice echoing through my prison cell, and amplifying his overly-annoy, nasaly-sounding voice.

'Just my luck,' I thought. 'Not only do I have to be next to this stupid Dunmer, but my cell has to have good accoustics, too!'

As soon as I decided that I would punch him when he next spoke, the sound of footsteps drowned out his rant, taking my opportunity of violence with it.

"Hurry up, Barus! I won't risk the Emperors' life on your slow gait!" snapped a bossy Breton female. But why was she talking about the Emperor ? That was madness! Even I was taught to show respect to him, and here she was, mentioning his name as causually as if...

Oh. The woman stepped forward, and behind her was a Redguard. And behind HIM was the Emperor. Nevermind, then.

"Oh, Captain Renevault, I highly doubt that I am in any danger with you three around," said the Emeror, sounding amused. The man in front of the Emperor chuckled.
Then the Breton (Captain Renevault, I assumed) saw me.

"What's this prisoner doing in here?!" she barked, spitting the word 'prisoner' out of the back of her throat, as if it were something nasty she had found on the back of her shoe. "This cell is supposed to be off limits!"

"Usual mix-up at the Watch, probably," said the Redguard, Barus, sounding exasperated. Renevault fingered a key, and opened the door.

A man appeared behind the Emperor, and I barely had enough time to gasp before he attacked him. Surprisingly, the Emperor held his own, until the attacker, who was wearing shiny silver armour, slashed across his face.

But Captain Renevault threw herself in front of him, and the sword connected with her head. She cried out in pain, and looked at me eyes pleading, although I had no idea what for. Until I realized that she was looking at her sword. I scooped it up, and stabbed the attacker in the heart.

Okay! The bio on everything that has happened so far, to explain stuff a bit further, and another biography on things possibly yet to come!

Alex Deadalu was born on... 12 years ago (sorry! ). Her parents were Darigus Deadalu and Jessyca Smythe. By sad mistake, Alex was born in Cheydinhal, where, after 3 years of her birth, the dark brotherhood came. Her father (who was more a scoundrel than anything else) had bet Alex on a few games of poker. Being drunk at the time, he lost, of course. The man who 'won' Alex then proceeded to bet, and lose on other card games. In the end, it happens to be a man named Lucien Lachance who walked away, undefeated, from the Inn. Not only did he now have a very large amount of gold, he also was in posession of Alex.

Alex was whisked away for training, and by the time she was 8, she'd had her first kill. Steadily rising in rank, she becomes the second-in-command, until... she fails to kill a Blade. Not Barus, but Kathren. She is discarded from the Brotherhood, by way of making her do an impossible task. The couple that she had grown up with, Julian and Mary Delphiki (no, they don't exist in the game to my knowledge), were slotted for death. At that time, she was 12. Instead of killing who she thought was her biological parents, she turned herself in for a murderer.

With her childhood already completely ruined, she is taken from the cell with the Emperor of Tamriel, who she then sees die. The one friend she might have possibly made is dragged away with goblins. Rather sad, (I say rather because she didn't really know emotions very well and had no idea how to go about being heart broken or devastated) she heads of the the Imperial City, and what does she find, but a rumor about Barus and his extremely bloodied and worn state!

So, what we have know, instead of the beautiful baby girl we started out with, we now have a tough, hardened twelve year old who's cunning and deadly enough to kill anyone. Not really strong, emotionally or physically, (She always defeated her various enemies with clever manuvers) she is thrust into a friendship with a certain trouble-attracting 16 year old Legion Guard named Seth Dormor...


okay, theres the first bio. And now, if you really want to read the double spoiler, which is focused on the future, please do, but don't tell anyone!

I may vary occaisionaly from the spoiler, so this is probably just an outline.

... and now I am very angry, because the spoiler isn't working at all! hmmm. well, crap. okee. maybe... I'm gonna try and put this on another comment...
