Two Races, Two Sides, Two Stories, One war.

About this image

Thanks to Omegared99's Gallery Of Armor mod, I had the inspiration to play through the civil war storyline again. Only this time I couldn't decide which side I wanted to do. So I decided to do both.
Two characters, completely opposite from one another, fighting the same war. I've been playing them simultaneously, keeping them both on the same progression of the questline.
Here's some info on them;
(Above picture)
Name: Semprus Cladivan
Race/Age: Nord, 29
Class/Preferred Weapons: Archer; Crossbow & Daggers
Background: Orphaned all his life, he lived in an orphanage in Bruma, just south of Skyrim. Due to budgets however, the orphanage was shut down. Semprus was forced to live on the streets, taking refuge in the chapel until he got to the age of 14, when the guards kicked him out of the town for stealing. He then was forced to live in the wilds, learning how to hunt, dabble in alchemy, and the art of the bow. Once he got to the age of 18 he rejoined society, made his way with coin as a mercenary, migrated north to Skyrim, and joined up with the Stormcloaks to rid the world of the Imperial Legion he had grown to resent so much.

Name: Vaelin Kaledis
Race/Age: Dark Elf, 26
Class/Preferred Weapons: Warrior, Sword & Shield
Background Story: Vaelin grew up in Solstheim, her mother was an Imperial in the Imperial Legion, her father was a Dark Elf merchant. When she was young, a band of Stormcloaks who abandonned their cause raided her town, and killed her parents. She was able to escape and was raised by another family of Dark Elves in Riften on a farm. When she came to the age of 17 they told her what happened to her family, which she had blocked out for so many years. With the memories coming back to her she had an epiphany, she joined up with the Imperial Legion, just as her mother did to rid Skyrim of Ulfric and his upcoming tyrannical rule.
