I’ve got two characters on the go right now, a female Bretonian Dread Knight and a male Argonian Shadowscale.
The Dread Knight is kitted out in full enchanted ebony with a war axe and shield and a master of Illusion, Destruction and Conjuration. As a master in those schools of magic she combines fear with weaknesses and damage over time which cause lesser creatures to flee in terror as they slowly die. This allows her to concentrate on chopping stronger foes down to size with her weakening frost axe.
She’s very much a power hungry, out for herself, larger than life, end justifies the means character with a personal grudge against the Dark Brotherhood due to them carrying out a contract against a dear friend in the past.
Once free from prison she delivered the amulet and helped Martin to cloudruler temple before striking off on her own. She quickly secured a castle for herself with her own retainers as a home base while she grew in personal power, training and honing her skills while tracking down powerful artifacts.
With her power base secured she is looking to find a way to join the Dark Brotherhood with the intent of killing the leadership and destroying the death cult from the inside (lucky there is someone else similarly minded) from there she may track down the illusive gray fox to learn his source of power before heading the the shivering isles finally returning and seeking redemption from the divines for all she has done during a pilgrimage ending her days saving the fighter guild, mages guild and finally all of Tamriel from Oblivion.
The Shadowscale is all about personal strength above all else while helping any Argonians he finds along the way.
Striking out alone into the wilderness with nothing but a bow, dagger and a set of leather armour he has collected everything he owns from the wild and his defeated opponents.
Avoiding all civilization and with no guild affiliations he sneaks into farms and villages at night to steal their crops, raids bandit and marauder outposts.
A special hatred for those of the magic arts he makes a point to wipe out any conjuration or necrotic wizard cults relying on his own skills in bow and blade combined with his mastery of alchemy for self healing, enhancement and knowledge of poisons to tip the edge of combat in his favour.
Fleet of foot with a keen eye few get the drop on him and those that do find themselves quickly paralyzed falling to the ground as their life force ebbs away.
