Name: Marrinthus Alethiel

Race: Half-Elf; Imperial/Altmer

Gender: Male

Age: 32

Appearance: This!

Skills and traits: Highly skilled with a sword, quite adept with blunt weapons; has some basic knowledge of Alteration magic. Rather good at subterfuge and stealth as well.

Weaponry and abilities: A shortsword, a buckler, a custom ball and chain weapon, and a few knives. Also a couple of novice Alteration spells.

Equipment: Leather armour with a chain shirt underneath. Various other utility items, such as a lockpicking tool set and a few potions.

Backstory: Born to an Imperial mother and an Altmer father, Marrinthus was destined to become a government official from birth. His father groomed him for that purpose, and for a few years of his adult life, he served the Brightking faithfully as a civil servant. It bored him, however, and he soon found himself running away from home with a Nord girl. Now away from the dull life of diplomacy, Marr found himself quite talented for an entirely different line of work: clandestine wetwork of the violent kind, in service of the Empire.

Once the initial infatuation wore off, however, Marr and his Nord sweetheart learned that they did not actually get along very well. Shortly after she gave birth to a son, she left him and moved to Riften. They have resented each other since, and the only reason they ever even meet each other these days is when Marr wants to see his son.
