    Haha yes I have plans for Enthir and this guy here.

    Yeah his parents with the help of their contacts there forged identities and events in High Rock making it seem that they and their family line tracing a long way back lived in High Rock and were fully integrated in their society such as that they had never any relation to Summerset they are pros at these after all. :D  Some gold and favors could probably make wonders in societies like High Rock's with all the political games going on.

    Everywhere in the Empire I'd say.

    Thats why i like this Challenge. Its fun to craft a Story arround a Playthrough and sharing it with a group ^^ I dont even know if this even belongs in the Story Corner. All we do is Roleplay and Describe what happend. If we would only go with the Games limitations it would get boring fast. Everyone played the Questlines. I have fun changeing a few Things arround to tell a Story.

    I think you have done a great job with the Challenge :)

    Thank you.

    I now know 100% this doesn't belong in the Story Corner, this is definitely not something one would call fanfiction or literature. But maybe this is somehow not the right kind of RP either? Idk really. This is just a thing I've always been doing while playing games. Maybe I've misunderstanding the whole concept of roeplaying? Wouldn't be very surprising if that's the case, I'm weird, it's a fact, lol.

    People have different opinions on Roleplay. I split my Roleplay in 2 parts

    The Character. As in Skills, appeareance, Backstory, Personality and so on.

    part 2 is Gameplay. I dont jump arround without a reason i Sprint only when in Danger or Something Urgent is happening (Like DB being wiped out i would try to get there as fast as possible) i walk most off the time i eat and sleep bathe in a lake if one is nearby i only use Carriages/Boats for Fast Travel things like that.

    So thats why im kind off confused as to what i should explain. you read my Decisions and know through previous entrys an the Profile why he did it. So i would just tell you what you already know.

    I always try to envision how it all would occure IRL. Like how all things have cause and effect, how a character's decisions are based on their personality and experience, how the personality itself is based on experience, etc. The things like eating/sleeping, walking and such just go by default for me, I don't even think about it much as I play.

    Ok it should be Obvious as to what happend. Ostium was Turned. So to prevent some Questions fom popping up i will explain what Clan he belongs to now and how i see Vampires.

     He belongs to the nameless Cyrodiil Vampyrum Order. Masters of Disguises. You cant tell them from a Human if well fed. He is Undead, meaning no breathing, no heartbeat, no need to eat. Sunlight only Hurts him if it Touches Skin so if he is Completly coverd he is Fine. He only takes Sun Damage at Hunger stages 2 and 3. At stage 4 if he is Touched by Sunlight he will Die in a few Seconds.If he is seen in Stage 4 he will be attacked Since he will look like a Gargoyle. His Skin is Cold to the Touch. Since he is a Lesser Vampire he does not gain any big boost to physical power.

     Now this Should give the possibility for fun Roleplay. He is still Chaotic Good so Biting Civilians is a No Go.

    I won't ask how a vampire from Cyrodiil (the one that bit him) ended up in Skyrim, but how he knows that?

    Migration ^^ I like to think that not every Vampire in Skyrim is from the Same clan. The Vampyrum Order destroyed all other Vampires in Cyrodiil. They are very Political in Nature. So some of them comming to Skyrim to overthrow the Volkihar sound pretty possible ^^  Thats the Fun thing, He doesnt. He will find out sooner or later by experience. He wont know the exact Clan but he will Figure out the effects on his own.

    Yes, I get it. But I can't see how Ostium would know about vampires and what clan a vampire might belong to. Unless of course the vampire gave him a lection after he turned him.
