Tsaesci Yni'ka Paal
"The Tsaesci are called devious, as they are not bound by honor or mercy."
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
4E 198, 8th of Sun's Dusk- I had to flee yet again. The Dominion keeps finding us. These Argonians have done a fantastic job of keeping me hidden from the general population of Cyrodil, but these damned elves keep tracking me down! I hope we can lose them, because if this keeps happening then we may never get to Skyrim.
4E 198, 10th of Sun's Dusk- After many months of travel, we've finally reached Skyrim! On top of that, we've even found a safe place to stay! The Dominion may have a presence here, but these dumb Nords can't distinguish a difference between the dull scales of an Argonian and my eloquent Akaviri scales. The Dominion will never know that I'm here, although that may not stop them from looking.....
4E 199, 13th of Morning Star- These Argonians must have done their research, because they know quite a bit about me. They marvel in what their Hist Sap has done to me. I must admit, the sap has done amazing things to my body. Before I was simply a Tsaesci, now I've become one with their Hist. It has not only given me the abilities of an Argonian, it has even given me legs! I do miss my tail, it was quite the advantage in battle, but these may come in handy in Skyrim's mountains.
4E 201, 15th of Sun's Height- It's been quite some time since I have been able to write, as I've been practicing. I've learned to sure my new legs in combat, and I've adapted my old battle techniques to incorporate them. These Argonians have taught me to use the power of the Hist to my advantage in battle, which is something I hadn't considered before. There's been a lot of talk about the Dominion lurking around out camp, but we all think they are only rumors.
4E 201, 16th of Last Seed- We've been spotted! It seems that we've become to reckless as of late, and a damned Elf saw us sparring. I doubt she could tell that I'm an Akaviri, as even I'm starting to forget that, but she'll be sure to alert the Dominion. A group of Argonians is enough to cause trouble for these damned pointy-eared bastards.
4E 201, 16th of Last Seed, Dusk- We've been surrounded. They're going to have us executed. I'm prepared to kill them all, but these Argonians aren't looking so good. I think they cold weather has finally gotten to them. I'll go peacefully. I don't want to risk their lives. I heard some talk about Helgen, I figure we should be there by morning. That's if these Argonians are still alive by then.

"We don't have shields in our culture,” murmured Versidue-Shaie to the Emperor. “It seems strange to my boy, I imagine. In our country, if you don't want to get hit, you move out of the way.”

A very special thanks to Vix, for without him I wouldn't have been able to complete this!
Credit goes to Talen-Maht and Ponty for the fantastic screentshots!
And finally, a special thanks to TZ for making the awesome Gameplay Video!
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Also, be sure to check out this awesome build by Henson, as it's the rival to this build!
Henson's fantastic counter to this build, this Greatsword-wielding Dovah-Cat will knock you on your feet. It's a great build, and an excellent adversary to the Yni'ka Paal (although the scaled races will always be far superior to those of fur and skin).

They have been known to fight without armor, but I feel as if the Blades Armor completes the build. I tried playing it without armor and I died waaaaaay too much. The Blades Armor works well though, as the Blades are descended from the Tsaesci Dragonguard.
