I'm not sure why but I always seem to be biased towards the Imperal Legion for some reason.
I happen to really, really like the imperial legions questline in Morrowind.
Think it would make sense if Ralathin joined them?
Sorta like "the hunted becomes the hunter" type stuff since he has a criminal background?
Seem reasonable or just stick with the Mages Guild? I mean, they ARE an Imperial guild.
Based on my long-trerm memory (which has admittedly failed me a couple times before),the Legion has some pretty great opportunities for incredibly fun & immersive roleplaying. Especially with the Impeial Legion Badge mod.
But I don't wanna break RP.
Thoughts?

Oh god... I don't even have a picture of my old Nord in Morrowind, but I remember his name...
Kodran Broken-Hammer. Which were the names of several Vikings that I had looked up picking out a name....
And a Dunmer named Daxus Nervion.
One of them was a goody two shoes who did no wrong...
And the other... well... he might have been a little... evil :Twisted Evil:

I wrote up an extremely elaborate backstory for my current character, then promptly lost the file somewhere and forgot nearly all of it. All I remember is that he is from Blacklight, was framed for something, fled, had to fall in with some criminals to conceal his identity and was sent to prison. I also chose to selectively ignore the statement that it was the Imperial City's prison. Without further ado...

Name: Kalmorash (his alias, if I remember correctly, not his name)
Race: Dunmer
Gender: male
Class: custom class, named "Asylum seeker", though I would change it to "Warrior-pilgrim" if I could

Specialization: Combat
Birthsign: Lady
Favored attributes: Strength/endurance (I pretty much always go with these no matter what build I'm playing, strength for carrying capacity and endurance for health, those strike me as much more immediate benefits than picking any other attributes. Unless you're playing as a magic build I guess, which I never do)

Major skills: Long blade, Heavy armor, Medium armor, Athletics, Mysticism
Minor skills: Speechcraft (I...have NO IDEA why I have this as a minor skill. I made this character a long time ago and came back to him recently, so I have no clue what I was thinking :/ might have been a roleplay thing. Normally I never even consider speechcraft.), Marksman, Armorer, Illusion, Alchemy

So this is a really straightforward warrior build with some extra flavor. I favor two handed long blades, i.e. the biggest BFS I can find, a bow on the side, and mostly heavy armor, though medium armor works well while I'm still at a low level and can't carry much. The various magic skills + speechcraft are there, I think, to give him some character depth as a pretty religious kind of guy, but religious in a very chaotic way...

Hey again =P got GOTY for Xbox and as I can't migrate my saves being on 360, I bit the bullet and started again. Straight away I knew I wanted a different kind of character to Nerosa the Thief - I have access to full Daedric now I have GOTY, so Heavy Armor was a must. Wanted to try a different weapon type than usual. Relied on armourer ridiculously during Nerosa so thought I needed that as a major skill. Thus, Orc was a natural choice.

Volthra gra-Ghorak, female Orc, sign of the Lady.
Custom Class Bloodkin. Favours Endurance and Agility. Combat specialized.
Major Skills:
Heavy Armour
Axe
Armorer
Block
Acrobatics

Minor Skills:
Sneak
Security
Speechcraft
Mercantile
Athletics

Current Factions: Blades, Thieves Guild, Fighters Guild, House Redoran, Tribunal Temple, Imperial Legion.
Slowly progressing through all. Going wherever the next cluster of quests take me.

I wanted to be an orc, but also not give up on my old thieving ways. Best way to play Morrowind is to take anything not nailed down. I felt it would be a twist on the usual orc build to be sneaky as well, and it's really paying off. I chose the Lady to give my female orc her much needed personality boost. Acrobatics is there because jumping is the only way to travel.
