Very much wanted to try my hand at this, hope I did alright...<br/><br/><div class="floatleft">(http://images.uesp.net/0/0e/Lore-race-Bosmer.png)</div>(I know, generic picture, but it’s the closest I could manage.)<br/><strong>Name:</strong>Valen<br/><br/><strong>Race:</strong>Bosmer/Wood Elf<br/><br/><strong>Age:</strong><br/><strong>physically:</strong>25<br/><strong>chronologically:</strong>31<br/><br/><strong>Physical Details/Short history:</strong><br/>A fairly handsome, young-looking Bosmer with long hair, and a look on his face that does little to hide his pridefulness. He has tattoos on the right side of his face (not pictured) akin to the typical designs sported by his race.<br/>The first of many children born from a couple of Valenwood immigrants, seeking to move themselves as far as possible from the tight grip the Thalmor had placed on all of southern Tamriel. This explains his rather hokey name- a reminder of home.<br/>Though growing up poor in his early life, when he reached adolescents he’d already become well known around his village for his natural talent for performing simple magics. Unlike his siblings, he couldn’t shoot an arrow to save his life, and instead had spent his time reading anything he could get his hands on, trying to fuel an ever growing curiosity.<br/>This lead to him being sent off to accompany a traveling mage to begin study at the college of Winterhold at an unusually young age.  Despite this, he became well-liked among the mages, and found this new home to be quite nice, even he did miss his family now and then. When he got old enough he worked at a local inn as well, so he could send money back to them. He lived a fairly successful life. He finished his studies and began writing on and researching the ancient magic of Skyrim. Soon he’d be invited back to instruct new mages in some Conjuration classes. You would either find him at the college, in a ruin, or at a bar.<br/>Most recently he’s taken to meeting with some… political groups, having an ages old grudge against the Thalmor.<br/><br/><strong>Core Combat Skills*:</strong><br/><ul class="bbc_list"><li type="disc"> Destruction</li><li type="disc"> One Handed</li><li type="disc">  Light Armor</li></ul><br/><strong>Core Supplementary Skills:</strong><br/><ul class="bbc_list"><li type="disc">Restoration</li><li type="disc">Conjuration </li><li type="disc">Speech</li></ul><br/><strong>Secondary Skills:</strong><br/><ul class="bbc_list"><li type="disc">Alchemy</li><li type="disc">Enchanting</li><li type="disc">Sneak</li></ul><br/><strong>Starting Equipment:</strong><br/><ul class="bbc_list"><li type="disc">Glass dagger</li><li type="disc">Mage college robes and hood</li><li type="disc">Staff of the Storm Atronach</li><li type="disc">Pack with a couple books.</li><li type="disc">200 Septims</li></ul><br/><br/><strong>Faction Affiliations:</strong>Mages college (researcher, instructor), Thalmor resistance
