Description

Name: Harra Schwarz
Race: Breton
Sex: Female
Birthsign: The Mage
Specialization: Magischer (A magically-inclined class with some sub-specialization in stealth. Mainly Sneak.)

Faction: Mages Guild (She is a scholar in the Arcane University.)

Harra Schwarz was always a magical being. Of course, this came with being a Breton, one of the most magically-inclined races in Tamriel. Of course, she also enjoyed some of the aspects of stealth, preferring to go by unseen, and avoid confrontation whenever possible. Because of this, she cast away the normal classes and subclasses of Magic, preferring to go her own way and create a class of her own.

The Magischer Class is a class that specializes in Restoration and Destruction, favouring in particular ranged spells, as one of the main class features is the ability to Sneak. Some Magischer traits can be lenient, as some prefer to rely entirely on Magic, while others instead don a bow and arrow for a combat bonus. Likewise, Light Armor can be added.

As a person, Harra is strong-willed when confronted, but does nearly anything in her power to avoid confrontation in the first place. While in most cases, she would curl up with a nice book, she's just as easily at home with conversing with another and learning their stories.

Because of this, she considered herself an eternal apprentice, always learning something new. She also is at times called the eternal teacher, because she loves to share her knowledge with others.

"I suppose it is an exchange of things. Should someone wish to learn from me, I would pray that they teach me what they know in turn. I ask not for much, merely to learn things."

Oftentimes, her teaching gathers her a decent amont of gold, which she in turn spends recklessly on fine robes, and new alchemical componants. Because of her spending on fine robes, she has gotten a good stand-in with Palonirya (often for the sheer reason that she is willing to pay extra for custom-made robes.)

While she spends a strong amount of time in the Imperial City (Arcane University and Market District mostly, occasionally the prisons), she actually has a home in Cheydinhal.

Of course, not everything is perfect. She has a soft spot for Necromancy, and doesn't understand Hannibal Traven's vendetta towards it. While she doesn't practise it herself, she has been known to let Necromancers pass by without reporting them to the Guild. Occasionally, she has even used her powers of Sneak to assist them in passing by safely without fear of being attacked.

Because of this, she usually keeps quiet around the guildmembers whenever the topic comes up, and oft studies in silence. (Oddly enough, she has a great respect for Mannimarco as an entity, even if she doesn't believe in his practises. While she is unsure if he lives or not, she would never be opposed to meeting him and speaking to him.)

Above all, Harra is a kind person, with little ill-will towards anyone. She has a great interest in talking to others, and will sometimes visit inmates in the prisons in order to give the prisoners some company, and hear their stories. It doesn't always give good results, but that never deters her. (Remember, strong-willed.)

Major Skills:
Alchemy- "I suppose I am a touch of a potions rat, but can one blame me? I love cooking up something~"
Alteration- "... Breathing underwater is always nice, I always wish I could do it naturally. Ah, oh well."
Conjuration- "Is it so wrong that I adore Daedra? They're beautiful beings, you know."
Destruction- "I... don't want to fight, but if I must, I'll fight your sword with fire and lightning!"
Restoration- "Of course, if you relent, I promise I will heal you right after."
Sneak- "Or we can avoid fighting in the first place and I'll merely slip idly by? (And maybe take some treasure from an abandoned fort if I get the chance?)"
Speechcraft- "But really, I think I would just like to talk to you. Can we avoid these silly dislikings?"

Racial Disposition:
Dunmer: +10 - "I have never understood why, but the Dunmer always seem like such a fascinating sort. Perhaps a little rough about the edges, but they're so beautiful. I suppose it is the crimson in their eyes, it's so entrancing."
Altmer: +5 - "You really have to learn to get along with Altmer, being a Mage and all. Sometimes they're difficult to deal with, but you really do learn."
Bretons: +5 - "It is nice to be around my own kind every now and then, of course, we're much like the Altmer. Maybe there is something in Magic that makes us so haughty?"
Argonians: 0 - "I could not tell you much, there are a few Argonians in the Guild, but we never talk much."
Imperials: 0 - "No real opinion, I am afraid. I live in their land, but there isn't much else to say."
Redguards: 0 - "Again, not really much of an opinion. The only Redguard I know much of at all is Travond, and we do not talk much."
Bosmer: -5/Male, 0/Female - "I wish I could tell you -why-, but it is hard to find a good Bosmer who bodes well with me-- no, not true. I've never had any trouble with Bosmer ladies, just the men. I wonder why?"
Kajiit: -5/Male, 0/Female - "Kajiit men scare me just a touch, but I've not met a Kajiit woman who frightens me in the same way."
Nords: -5 - I've never gotten along well with any Nords, perhaps it is the chilly disposition."
Orcs: -5 - Oddly enough, with there being so many Orsimir in Cheydinhal, you think I would enjoy their company better, other than Ms. Borba, they've never sat well with me. Then again, I never do very well with warrior types-- which could explain my unease around them and Nords."

NOTE: Not all of this information is accurate to her in-game. I used what would make a good character concept, and less of a Mary-Sue. (Since I didn't want a Listener of the Black Hand, Archmage, Sheogorath running around.) Obviously, the racial dispositions were completely made-up to what suits her as a character, and some of her skills were altered. (This version has no skill in archery, for instance.)
