• Description

  He has a thin face, with more androgynous features. His eyebrows are thick, yet with a sculpted appearance, that give him a more intense look that conflicts with his soft eyes. His lips are thin, the curves of them more sharp along the upper lip. His nose is somewhat pointed, with arched nostrils. His cheek bones are high and he has a somewhat long chin, though not long enough to be considered unusual or ugly. His hair is long, with piecey bangs hanging to the side of his face, usually kept in a loose, but tidy, folded over bun. His complexion is a pale, creamy yellow, as opposed to the more robust, burnished gold shades some Altmer achieve. He wears a plain, navy blue tunic of fine cloth with black pants, and often carries a bag full of books and parchment.

• Biography

  Oramion was born to working class parents in Cyrodiil. A long lost uncle (from his mother's side of the family) got back into contact with the family from Summerset and sent money for his education. He became a scholar of history and a writer, and he enjoys writing historical fiction, as well as investigating to make sure things written in various history books are correct. He is currently in Summerset to get back in touch with his roots and learn history. His goal is to read history books from every region of Tamriel before writing his own history book with the intention of making it the final say on the matter.
  
  His mother had a tendency toward depression and often did not have the energy to play with him or take care of him beyond his most basic needs when he was a child. When she was feeling better, she would teach him how to cook and bake, and read books to him. His father was an authoritarian, patriarchal man who was out working the fields more than he was home with his family. Oramion suffered from chronic pain in his youth. The healers could not determine the cause, and he developed an immunity to analgesic after analgesic. His father suspected he was faking, and often tried to push him to do things beyond his capabilities, punishing him when he failed. As an adult his pain is less severe. He more or less experiences a constant, mild amount of pain. It flares up sometimes and forces him to take to the bed until it passes. A bad case of shingles in his thirties has left him scarred and with poor motor control of the hands and arms.
