Aelena Hawking

Race: Redguard

Age: 23

Appearance: Tall and slender with full lips and light blue eyes, wears her hair in long, multicolored braids. High cheekbones and a wide, white smile. Wears mages robes, it doesn't matter the color, all that matters is the enchantment.

Personality: Genuine, sweet, slow to anger, but when she angers, she fizzles out very quickly. Quiet, listens to those around her and doesn't speak usually until spoken to.

History: Aelena was raised by her older sister Ionna in the Imperial City after her parents were brutally murdered and her younger brother, Taylin, was kidnapped. She hasn't seen her brother, who was four years younger than her, since he was kidnapped.

When she reached of age, she enrolled in the Arcane University where she excelled at Illusion, Mysticism, and Alteration. While in the University, she met a student that changed her life and inspired her to try to better the world. She began collaborating with other students secretly to try to find a way to heal and restore hearing and vision impairment via magick.



Skills and Abilities: Skin-hardening spells, Night-Eye, Life-Detect (general spell, does not differentiate between undead and living) Trying to master Paralyzation but can only make her target feel sluggish and heavy.


Instead of using Destruction to defend herself, she uses her defensive magicks in offensive ways. She prefers to apply her magick in different ways, experimenting with different effects on her subjects. Her preferred method of attack is making her attacker(s) believe she set herself on fire or projecting her image onto an enemy and having another enemy attack them.

Will be finishing the rest later.

[Darkness Eternal]

Dammit, DE! I know you got my message! Where's the profile?

Name: Lycus Castius Desselius

Race: Imperial.

Gender: Male

Age: Over two centuries.

Sign: The Warrior

Home Country: Cyrodiil-near the Great Forest.

Faction and Rank or Guilds: The Companions( The Circle). Mercenary and bounty hunter.

Faction Description: Lycus became a member of the Circle of Companions in the Third Era sometime after his slavery and the events that happened to him in Cyrodiil.

Skills and talents: Lycus acquired a number of talents in the field. As a lowborn he was raised learning the basic skills of hunting, cooking and even later in his life as a blacksmith during slavery. He has been able to craft and forge his own blade as far as ebony-made weapons and armor, some of which he created for himself to suit his own body.

Lycus is able to survive off the wild and whatever the land provided for him. He’s also able to cook very well and holds much skill as a farmer and knowledge of plants, cattle, crops, etc.

Physical Appearance: Kraven Desselius was known for his tall stature, caramel skin-color and his long shoulder-length black hair and bright eyes. When in his early twenties, he had minor facial stubble until he allowed his hair and beard to grow. Throughout his life he was known for his savage, barbarian-like appearance which was considered unorthodox among Imperial citizens. He was constantly scorned and compared to an animal, though he did not want to change his physical looks to please others, for he felt comfortable with himself that he enjoyed his less-than-stellar look.

When he contracted Lycanthropy, Kraven's life was prolonged due to a pact made with Hircine, and also spending centuries in the Hunting Grounds. His appearance grew old, but he yet held his semblance from decades prior. His eyes changed to a radiant yellow and he acquired a few new scars on his face that would mark him as a dangerous man desensitized to violence.

Standing tall and imposing, he began to put on muscle through the years fighting as a gladiator and eating nutritional food such as porridge and hound meat and Kwama eggs, and a life of constant travel also resulted in his body change. He put on pounds of muscle and transformed into a muscular and imposing figure.
A
fter being trapped in the Hunting Grounds for quite some time, and being transformed by the very essence of the realm, Lycus' appearance was monstrous. He had a feral look about his face, and his eyes beheld insanity and reflected his innermost desires. His facial hair grew twice as much as it normally would have. His terrifying visage and wild nature often spooked many women whom he came across.

Eyes: Yellowish.

Weapons of preference: There is a wide range of weapons that Lycus is able to use. His most utilized weapons are spears, swords (preferably longswords) and daggers or knives. He has been trained to use blunt weapons but not to the degree of his martial skill with the blade or with the spear. He prefers weapons made of silver, ebony or steel.

Clothing: He isn’t one for extravagant clothes or fancy trappings. Lycus wears simple fabric that most middle or low-class men would be seen wearing. When armored he is usually seen with his own custom-forged polished black armor made of steel and ebony based off of the Companion's wolf armor.

Magic abilities or powers:

"You have served me well and I offer you this gift: the Hunter's Wind. May you never tire in your hunting, my hound.”

The Hunter’s Wind: This power given to Lycus by the Daedric Prince Hircine himself allows Lycus to completely regenerate from a number of injuries, both great and smile, each day. Damaged or destroyed tissue is reformed. One such occasion was when he suffered fourth-degree burns or when he nearly lost a limb from his body. He reserved this power to times where his life is nearly expired.

"I grant you this boon for your service, hound. When you walk in the day, you may now summon a companion to your side, to aid you in your travels. Hunt well, until I call upon you again."
Summon Bone-wolf: Another gift given to him while serving as Hircine’s hound in the Great Hunt, Lycus is able to summon a bone-wolf from oblivion to hunt down his prey. The conjured creature can only hunt prey to a certain degree; if the game is spotted and on the run.

Mental Profile/Personality:

“What I know about Lycus Desselius? He's a scarred man in torment. A bitter, cynical man who mocks the gods and laughs at men. He's loved and lost and never loved again. It is hate that drives him. Though he's committed many atrocious sins, he never sought forgiveness from the Nine. But what you've heard about his legendary exploits is true. He has done many deeds, both good and ill, and if you ever want to cross this man, make sure you're by his side and not in his path."

As a young boy, Kraven was mindful and wise and intelligent He was friendly and easily got along with others despite his low-class life as a farmer. He also had a special spot in his heart for his mother, whom he took care of by buying her jewels, hunting for food and fishing. He was both helpful and generously kind; doing everything in his power so that he could to help her. Every coin he came across or earned, he gave to her in hopes of finding a better life. Though lovable, he had a darker side. He carried grudges and was vengeful of those who did him wrong. He also hated being treated unfairly or being wrongly accused. He was fiercely loyal like a hound, doing his best to keep those he cared about from harm. His only price for such thing was loyalty in their part.

After being sold into slavery, Kraven’s separation from his mother was the hardest thing he'd ever done, and it
still hurt him for years. Because of his fear of losing even more friends, he kept to himself. During his growing years he grew especially close to a woman and a Redguard Blademaster, considering them a beloved friend.
Due to his sudden ascension from being a servant boy to being known as the "Slayer of Beasts and Conquer of Giants”, and the rising star of the gladiator stock, his pride and arrogance sunk in. He grew cocky, self-appreciating, and he began to despise being tended to, lectured or even reprimanded.

He was a naturally honest man and hated lying and deception, and detested politics and corrupt authority officials, rightly considering most of the men and women in the Empire’s upper circle to be greedy and power-hungry. His father’s continual abuse against him hurt Kraven, who at times wasn't sure he even deserved to be loved, something his heart craved. Therefore, being easily swayed by the promise of praise and glory in the arena and the promising loins of a Telvanni mistress.

His yearning to be loved, as well as cherished and appreciated, came out in his devotion to combat and secret relationship with a manipulative woman, one of the few people he ever thought cared for him. As his fame spread, he became more and more arrogant, and he knew that he was one of the best gladiators in Vvardenfell, believing that he could easily best any warrior or mage blindfolded with a spear tied to his back.

Despite having an arrogant personality that later diminished, Kraven secretly suffered from an overwhelming sense of anxiety and uncertainty. He struggles daily against a "wolf" in his heart. The wolf stands as everything that negatively defines his emotions; fear and self-doubts. His childhood trauma of being attacked and watching his sheep get killed by a wolf was so great that in his mind, he would compare his greatest fear to his own personal issues. His fears becomes a catalyst for his journey and growth into someone different and the very thing he feared the most and new identity as Lycus Desselius.

His three and a half years in slavery had turned an ambitious young man into a cold, angry, bitter soul detached from any sort of emotion other than regret, anger and hate. Though loved by the audience and perceive by the society as a heroic warrior, Kraven was seen by his fellow slaves as a tormented man who was on the verge of snapping.

After desiring freedom nd many other things in life, he slowly began to entertain thoughts of being a greater warrior than he already was. His motivating goal was to destroy his feeling of being ostracized and fear of not being good enough and eliminating his life-changing self-doubts that plagued him all his life. Sometime later Kraven faced his worst fear and became ashamed that he was overwhelmed by it and inspired of what he had to do to finally conquer it.

With his newfound abilities and strength and a rebirth into a different man in the waters of oblivion, and regret for his losses combined with his anger at his masters for misusing him, Lycus decided to take by force what has been denied to him. Even after this Lycus is still damaged, to the point where he must find ways to cope with it or perish. He took to embracing rage because it's better than suffering from fear. Lycus forever embraced battle because he believes it gives him more control over his life and security.

As a warrior and a combatant, Lycus is a loyal friend to those true to e than the most sophisticated of people he comes across in his travels. He had a strict code of honor, and refrained from stealing or raping. With a savage and barbaric code of conduct that often marks him as near honorable. Even as a leader and brother among the small group of slaves consisting of rapists, murderers and thieves, he stood out as a commandeering figure who never engaged in raping or thieving, but wasn’t afraid to go as far as to commit cold-blooded murder.
His ferocity and his dedication to killing made him a terrifying presence on the battlefield. Yet underneath the fearsome killer, Lycus is still a boy who had his childhood destroyed by a malicious father. He's unapologetic for his heinous and murderous actions on the surface, but he's deeply bitter about them on the inside. He’s a walking critic of Imperial religion of virtue.

After becoming what happened in the Hunting Grounds and after becoming a Lycanthrope, his personality changed for the worst. He was became a rattled man, shaken by the death of those closest to him and the events that happened prior. After he lost two women whom he shared his heart with, Lycus gained a firm belief that love was a weakness and was meaningless in the violent life that was his. He lived his life knowing he sold his soul to a daedric prince and bound his spirit to the Hunting Grounds. He was granted Daedra-like immortality, and so if slain in Tamriel or in the Hunting Grounds, his spirit would be cast in the waters of Oblivion.

Aside from his warrior life, Lycus has a hobby of hunting big-game creatures such as lions or Sabretooth cats, and even mammoths. Before and after his slave life, he would spend time hunting creatures, taking their heads as trophies as well as their meat for sustenance.

When he wasn't satisfied with hunting beasts, Lycus began working with the authorities to hunt down prisoners and escaped convicts into the wilderness, in which he would hunt them down. He even owned a private trophy room to display the skulls of animals and dangerous people he killed.

Fighting Skills:

Kraven Desselius was trained in sword combat by the Redguard blademaster Nachael. He became a deadly duelist and fighter, and wielded a spear, a sword, and a curved blade(the scimitar), a weapon presented by the Redguard in recognition of his skill and dedication. Kraven developed an altered style with the unique scimitar, the subleties of which were recognized by only the most seasoned weapon holders and fighters in Tamriel. After Kraven left behind Morrowind, he favored a furious, all-offensive manner of combat, and capitalized on his tremendous physical strength to overwhelm and defeat his adversaries. Kraven taught himself to adapt to a more complex style that incorporated feints and defensive maneuvers, as well as techniques and offenses he learned from the Blademaster Nachael while yet a new slave.

When given his Lycanthropy, Lycus is granted a number of abilities including preternatural strength, stamina, speed, efficiency and agility. Due to training his body is also more durable and can endure more forms of injury than the body of a normal person. Due to a pact with Hircine and his service as a Beast, his Lycanthropy has dramatically altered his aging to the point that he hasn't aged at all over several decades. Despite the possibility of being over seventy years of age, he maintained the physical appearance of a 30-year-old man.
Lycanthropy enhances Lycus' sight, hearing, and smell to supernatural proportions, adding to his already impressive tracking and hunting talents.

He can see farther, and with greater detail, than a normal mortal. His hearing is likewise improved, enabling him hear from great distances. Lycus can use his sense of smell to track prey by scent, much as some creatures do, even if that smelll has been eroded and changed by natural factors. Even before his Lycanthropy, Lycus was an Olympic-level athlete, a gifted leader, hunter, and spear-thrower and combatant and sword master. While living the life of a hunter and a farmer, Kraven picked up simple skills such as archery and spear-throwing and simple labor.

Most of Kraven's martial and combat skills came at the foot of Nachael, his Redguard trainer in Lord Bratheru Andrano's stronghold in Azura's Coast in Morrowind. After months of learning working slave labor in the mines and tirelessly in the plantations, Kraven was given an opportunity to become a gladiator. Already proficient in the use of the spear, Kraven learned the basic of warrior combat to the most complex techniques; block, parry, thrust, slash, counterattack. He did not possess any magical abilities save for his inherited Imperial powers of pursuasion, which he used to lead his fellow men.

When Kraven embraced his Lycanthropy and rechristened himself as Lycus Desselius, he maintained his fighting ways, but made use of in a more brutal fashion, becoming a frightening opponent. This intense aggression became his strength and a flaw, as he would become so controlled by it that it would give way to Lycanthropic-induced rage. Though blessed with youth, strength, athleticism, and mastery of sword combat and gifted with raw abilities that overpowered most, Lycus still lacked the experience, calm, and focus that could benefit him even more in battle.

During his stay in Morrowind, he learned new archery skills with his bow and arrow, that came in use when stealing a horse that was doomed to be served as food from the noble's table. While being ambushed by orsimer bounty hunters, Kraven put his skills to the test while mounted atop his chestnut steed.
He was also an expert in using his spear, which served to be thrown and also used as a defensive and offensive weapon where he could keep his foes at bay. While a burden to move around, Kraven still carried it by holding it next to his hips or above his shoulder. While lacking any skills from a mage or assassin, Kraven used most of his hand to hand abilities and his sword training by using any manner of weapon he could scavange from either killed enemies, dead individuals or abandoned locations.

Biography/Life History: The Imperial male who would become The Beast of Kvatch, Crimson Spear, and ultimately the Grand Champion was born as merely Kraven the farmer in Cyrodiil, to an abusive dock worker named Kerstus. The legendary warrior came from humble beginnings.

Kraven was often bullied by his father. Kerstus blamed young man for the life of poverty. Kerstus also took to blaming his son for his own miserable existence and considered Kraven to be an animal, much so that he took to calling him "beast" on the daily basis. At the age of twenty, Kraven began to hunt for a living to provide for himself and his mother when Kerstus began squandering the septims on brothel whores and alcoholic drinks.
Kraven learned to fend for himself, disregarding the mockery and physical abuse thrown at him by his father.
On a certain day after fishing and killing a deer and returning it to his home for his mother, a drunk Kerstus insultedt him until Kraven rose up to his father and challenged him to a fight.

Furious, Kerstus began to beat upon his son until his nose broke and lips bled, although Kraven endured the pain without making so much as a sound of retaliation. That night, Kraven, filled with anger, traveled to the Imperial City to begin gambling to save for him and his mother.

Time went by and Kraven had won a good amount of coin until he played his last match. In the last card game where he was victor, Kraven was poisoned, beaten and smuggled into a ship in the Waterfront by Dres members and corrupt Legion officers. Without his mother or father or anyone else discovering, Kraven was shipped to Morrowind and sold into slavery.

Kraven was purchased by a man named Bratheru Andrano, a Telvanni-born nobleman with Imperial interests. In his master’s stronghold the young farmer worked in the mines and as a laborer until he was trained to fight for sport in the remaining arenas in Morrowind.

Many events happened in the three and a half year period of slavery and after and Kraven, also known as Lycus The Wolf or Lycus The Hound, became a known figure among authorities, citizens and criminals alike. There were many rumors of him that were spoken in hush whispers. Some say he sold his soul to a daedric prince and was given immortality, others say he’s half-daedra or a werewolf born from the pits of oblivion.

He was also said to have instigated a number of famous atrocities; events such as the Red or the Crimson Dinner; the event where an entire fortress of feasting nobles and aristocrats, along with high-ranking members and representatives of each of the Great Houses of Morrowind and their guards were cold-bloodedly massacred in a bloodbath said to have been orchestrated by Lycus and a large group of prisoners. Other crimes such as raids and crimes against wealthy dunmer households along some areas in Morrowind also were connected to Lycus. It wasn’t before long when Lycus at last reached Cyrodiil that he would pay for his actions and alleged crimes committed against Imperial nobles who were amongst the slaughtered.
