Name: Vilr Bergor
Age: 23
Race: Nord/Redguard
Class: Barbarian/Crusader
Sexuality: A-sexual
Personality: Vilr is a very hard type of personality, he's strong both physically and emotionally. It's hard driven to make him angry, impatient, scared or anything that falls under the category of showing emotion. He is very much a tight-lipped individual, speaking in only a few words at a time. Because one wouldn't be able to tell how he's feeling from his face, tone, or words, a person would have to watch his actions more closely to figure it out because to Vilr, actions speak louder than words. He comes across as being uncaring and cold, the type of person who is only following orders for the sake of following orders, however that couldn't be father from the truth. For one thing he's the one who is making the orders and for another he is very loyal to his community, family, and his dogs; one could even say that he's a softy for these things.
In battle you wouldn't be able to find a less subtle person, he believes in storming the barricade and taking everyone down all at once, however that's his tactic for him. He's very smart when it comes to planning anything to do with battle or war. He has a hero complex, meaning that he has to save and protect people whether they want it or not. He views himself as a hero, that is his role in life and his self-identity. However there is one catch to this hero complex, if he had to choose between a stranger who was in trouble and any of the three things he's "soft on" it would be the latter hands down. Though this is the only thing he would be impulsive about, everything else he plans, almost too meticulously does he plan everything he does. He understands better than most about consequences and how one's actions can affect a town across the kingdom, so he he tries his best to make sure that his actions don't affect people in a negative way.
Since Vilr has dyslexia he has a hard time reading and writing, not that he can't, and it is his belief that he can over come this if he reads enough. This doesn't affect his ability to plan out battles and raids for his team, but just makes it hard to read maps. He believes that with enough hard work, one can overcome anything and so he reads everyday, finding it a struggle, but still continuing to do his best. Vilr also has very strong morals, morals that he can never go against and so even though he comes off to others as being one who follows orders without question, that is completely the wrong assumption because if the orders go against his morals then he will ask questions, so much so he will take himself off the team that proceeding with those orders; there have even been a few incidents where he tried to stop that team as well because not only then would it be going against his morals, but also his self-identity of being a hero.

Strengths: Battle planning; brute force; hero complexion; "thick skinned", meaning it takes a lot for him to lose his temper, but also it takes a lot before someone can take him down in a fight; he has unbelievable concentration and focus; his resolve is unshaken; and it takes more then limbs coming off and shadows chasing him to make him scared
Weaknesses: He's superstitious, not that he believes in magic because everybody knows that's real, but when it comes to 'jinxing himself' and 'lucky armor' that he wears into every battle; he always holds a flame that there is some good in everyone; family and community, both of these come before his own safety and the safety of strangers; he isn't exactly subtle, when it comes to fighting or talking; he also has Dyslexia, though everyday he tries to beat it by reading as much as he can even if he doesn't quite understand what he's reading
History:
Vilr was born in Stormhold in the Black Marsh area with two younger brothers, his mother, his father, and three dogs. His mother is a Redguard who worked as merchant to sell the food that his father, a Nord, had farmed. His father used to be a warrior up in Skyrim, but left in pursuit of a new world and a new life and that's when he fell in love with Vilr's mother and gave up killing to settle down and farm. However, battle was still in his father's blood and so it was that he taught all three of his sons how to fight and battle plan. It was Vilr who took onto this training well, and after finding he had a harder time reading and writing unlike his younger brothers, Vilr latched onto the one thing he was good at. Vilr's first younger brother, Saiven who is only two years younger than himself, had started training to become an alchemist because not only could he read really well, but he could also had a knack for making potions and cooking. Vilr's youngest brother, Raund who is seventeen years younger than him, is still too young to become an apprentice to anyone, but so far has shown a lot of promise in riding horses.
Vilr, when he was 14 joined the guard that protected their city. He trained with them for five years, going on hunts with them as well as raids if rumors of bandits got too close. It was when he turned 19 that some of the other guards joked he was too good for them and that he should head to Skyrim if he wanted to see any real action. Only Vilr took this joke more as a suggestion. He told his parents what he wanted to do, his father was wasn't exactly excited, but he still respected Vilr's decision. So his father traveled with his son, and Vilr's dog, North to Skyrim. They ran into some trouble along the way of course, but nothing the two couldn't handle. When they reached Skyrim, Vilr was shocked to find a war beginning there between the Imperial Legion and a group called the Stormcloaks. Vilr's father lead his still further North to a town called Winterhold. This was apparently the town that his father had grown up in. While there he and his father asked questions around about what was happening. When Vilr heard of what the Stormcloaks were trying to do, he pondered on it that night with his father and the next day he made his oath to the Stormcloaks. His father soon left after that back to their family in Stormhold.
Vilr still receives letters from his family and he tries his best to write them back, though they always come out rather difficult to read so Vilr usually has a friend write it out for him. He had been teased for his dyslexia for a while when he first joined, but when the other Stormcloaks discovered how good he was in battle and with battle planning they soon started to help him, still some teasing, but nothing that wouldn't come from a brother. Vilr rose through the ranks becoming what he is now, a general for the Stormcloaks. He is one that a lot of the leaders of the Stormcloaks come to first for military tactics and advice, he's the one that oversees who joins the Stormcloaks, he is the one who often leads groups into battles. His parents miss him dearly, but have come to be very proud of their son, Saiven and Raund have even traveled up to visit him every now and then and if the Stormcloaks' leaders allow it, Vilr has gone down to visit his family once or twice as well. His family seems to be doing alright, keeping safe. However since he became a Stormcloak it has made some trouble for his family, after all Black Marsh is very close the Imperial Province and more than once his family had been questioned. To this day, Vilr has struggled to his choice on becoming a Stormcloak, something that he does believe was the right decision, but has inadvertently put his family under scrutiny.
