    THE SOLOIST

     

    The soloist is very unique and interist way to play an assassin with a very daggerfall theme to it. It combines the use of swords and daggers, bow and arrows, sneak lycanthropy, and many alteration spells to make the perfect assassin!

     

    Background

     

     

    The Soloist was born into a imperial family of bandits and was named Caxilito Rexon. Although he was mainly raised by his mother he was tought how to swings both greatswords and regular swords and how to shoot an arrow from a bow. At the bandit camp there was a mine where all of the bandits worked except for Caxilito and his mother. Caxilito and his mother were outside to watch from oncoming travelers.

     

    One day, when Caxilito was five, he mastered the archery and swordsman ship and wanted another practice to conquer. His father said that he didn't need anything else but the little imperial still asked if anybody knew how to do something else. Nobody did. When his mother and him went outside he asked her what she did when she was a kid. She told him the complete truth, even though Caxilito's father hated the truth about her. She said that she had master the alteration school of magic and was a very good sneak.
    Immediatly the kid asked if she could teach him, and the mother, not wanting to dissapoint her son, said she would. She would only teach him if Caxilito promised to keep this secret hidden from his father. Caxilito agreed and turned out to be a very quick study. His lfe was begining to get happier and Caxilito liked learning but everything went south when one day an Argonian family stumbeled apong his camp. Caxilito threatened to shoot one of them with an arrow if they moved so they had to stay still. The soloists motherwent in the mine to get his father and the rests of the bandits.

     

    When they got out all what they saw was a frieghtended Argonian family being threated by a young Caxilito who stood on the high wall of the camp. When his father saw this he knew that it should be easy to get money from them. He told the Argonian family of five that the fee to have access to the road was 5,000 gold. The mother said they didn't have money like that so the father had to find other forms of payment.

     

    He took an argonian baby out of the mother's hands and said that it would do in place of the gold. The mother asked for him to take her over her baby and Caxilito's father agreed to this but when the baby was given back she started to run. So, Caxilito let go of his arrow and killed the mother. Then The Soloist's father took back the baby and stabbed through it's body. But his sword was so long he stabbed through Caxilito's heart. She fell dead and Caxilito screamed out in agony and jumped off of the wall. He landed with his sword plunged firmly into his father's helmet, killing him. He then is chased by the rest of bandits to the border of Skyrim where he is caught on the border and taken to Helgen.

    You get my like for the backstory. It's been some time since I've read about a prodigy at only five years but the real pièce de résistance is the ending. That is some Happy Tree Friends level sh!t. :))

    On a more serious note, you might want to expand on your gameplay. There's not much information on it.

    Hi Elite, and welcome to the the Vault.  I'm glad you decided to contribute to our Skyrim CB group.  Unfortunately we have a few rules (just two) that govern our character builds.  They must include a Perk Spread (which you have) and a gameplay section (which seems to be lacking from your build).  I will have to request that you add a gameplay section to the build or else I will have to delete it in accordance with our group rules.  If you need any help please let me know, I'm more than happy to lend an hand.

    What do you mean by game play

    Basically how you intend the character to be played.  Many builders will explain how to approach combat with the different kinds of enemies like melee vs. ranged.  Some also explain how the character goes bout exploring and clearing dungeons.  It's really just an explanation on how to play the character.  I know that this sometimes feels redundant since to us Skyrim veterans just looking at a perk spread is usually enough to understand how the character plays, but you need to assume that some of your readers may have only played for a few hours, just enought to know what button does what, tell them how to utilize this character in the best way. 

    I may have been a little harsh in my initial estimation as I see there are some hints to the gameplay in your skill descriptions, I redact my earlier comment and I will not delete this under grounds that there is a bare minimum of gameplay explained to the reader.  However, i strongly suggest you expand upon these small hints and better explain how you played this build.  You do after all say that this is a "fun and interesting" build i'd like to see a section that explains what was fun and interesting.
