Kivuli_The_Khajit
Werewolf Queen of Skyrim
(Ask to join on the OOC thread! Not on this thread!)
An era has passed since the bloody civil war that once ravaged Skyrim ended. Since then, the Deadric Lords have been planning. Conspiring in secret to extend their reach unto to mortal plane and claim dominion over man and mer alike. Using their powers to corrupt and indoctrinate, leaders have been swayed, wars established, and cities turned to ash.
Within the first hundred years, armies reached epic proportions until they burst from the gates of Oblivion and swarmed over the land. Deadra of all kinds were met by ferocious resistance, but with every soldier that fell in battle and was claimed by Deadra, two were lost. The first, the soldier that fell. The second, the soldier unable to kill the man once fighting by their side. Brothers were turned against brothers. Fathers upon their children. The lines of friend and foe became one in the same, destroying the livings' will to fight. Slowly, Deadric Lords claimed Dominion over holds and enforced those unfortunate enough to remain alive under strict laws that require the utmost devotion to the Lord. If you step out of line, you are beaten, tortured, or converted into one of their twisted minions.
The true glory of the sun has been so long forgotten that it has passed to myth. Instead, it has been substituted with the twisted form caused by a bloodcursed arrow. It hardly allows crops to grow, and many have spent their entire lives without so much as a fleeting glimpse of the warm ball of life.
Centuries have passed, and the Divines cannot directly influence the mortal plane any longer. Instead, they imbue their light and power to souls destined for greatness, creating legions of Divine Champions. However, this power is no mere blessing. Those gifted by the Divines are able to resist the binding of their soul and mind to a Deadric Lord. They are blessed in spirit and cannot be swayed by darkness, instead housing the power to banish it, along with the Lord from which it has sprouted.
Divine Champions are born with the mark of one of the Nine Divines on some place on their body. During comabt with Deadra, that sign will glow with the purifying light of the Divines, strengthening the Champion. When fighting a Lord, the Champion's sign and eyes will glow brightly, and if the Champion succeeds in defeating the Lord, they must call upon each of the Nine through ancient prayer in the Dragons' tongue. When done properly, a blinding column of light will drop from the heavens and envelope the Lord, banishing them and destroying their hold over the mortal plane.
A single legion of a Champions was supposed to bring peace and order to Tamriel, but the Deadric Lords proved far more clever and defeated these Champions in battle. In the aftermath, they learned of a Champion's "Mark" and have dispatched squads to find and murder Champions, regardless of their age. Thousands upon thousands of Champions have been cut down, a shocking majority of them being no older than an infant. Being born with the "Mark" of a Champion has become a central fear in the ravaged societies, and the fear has driven people to seek out Champions to try and win a Lord's favor. Many have taken to calling a Champion a "godcurse."
Those lucky enough to survive infancy with a "Mark" are unwillingly shunned from society for their protection, attempting to hide their true identity. Or, they are constantly under attack and on the run, fighting for survival day in and day out. Divine Champions are so poorly organized that it has become near impossible to form a Legion because of the fear that you (The Champion) will be discovered, or attacked and brought down.
Will you heed the call and save Tamriel?
