Cresseida al-Bergama
im starting to make oc posts so i can make an official oc page starting with cresseida using this template by tumblr user jessaryss with some tweaks here and there. They said anyone can use it and personalize it for themselves so if y’all want to use this feel free to!
BASICS
Name: Cresseida al-Bergama 
Nicknames: She doesn’t like to go by any nicknames, just Cresseida, though close friends can call her Cress. Do grand titles count as nicknames? If so then Vestige, Champion, etc. etc.
Race: Redguard, demiprince of Clavicus Vile, though it’s lowkey, she’s human-passing
Age: 24 in the base game, 28 in Summerset, 30 right now (2020)
Pronouns: She/Her
Eyes: Dull gray without her soul, silver with her soul back
Hair: Curly and poofy, dark reddish brown
Skin: Brown with a lot of random freckles and moles
Height: 5′2 (tiny baby uwu)
General Physique: Very muscular especially arms and thighs and back. i wouldn’t say she’s skinny more sculpted really
Tattoos, War paints, Scars?: has a large gray scar right in the middle of her chest. the magic on mannimarco’s dagger was so corrupted it left a deep mark on her new body in addition to the old one, as if it was some dark and traumatic memory imprinted on her skin. she also has a dark daedric mark on her back that reveals her daedric background but her mom lied and told her it was just a birthmark lmao
About
Werewolf/Vampire?: none
Occupation: savior of tamriel
Guild Associations: mages guild, undaunted enclave, psijic order
Favored Weapon Class/Type: her whole life cresseida was trained in the art of sword and shield but as she started to not fear her magic and train and hone it she switched to a lightning staff. now she uses it exclusively but she still trains with the sword and has also trained to fight nonmagically with her staff
Favored School of Magic/Type: Dark magic, conjuration, destruction, specifically storm and lightning. she has persuasion abilities from clavicus vile: people tend to immediately trust her, feel calmer in her presence. she’s good at bargaining and persuading people to make a choice over the other. also like vile she has her own daedric companion, her clannifear
Heavy/Light/Medium Armor? Clothes?: despite being a mage ingame with light armor in reality she prefers heavy armor, though she slowly starts to wear some light armor as she trusts people more and gets less closed off
Place of Birth: Bergama
Place Where they were Raised: with a group of nomads led by her aunt and mother who travelled all over Hammerfell in caravans
Current Location: her current home is in Wayrest though she is getting slowly used to her plane of oblivion (ingame its the psijic manor on artaeum)
Education/Place of Study: was mostly educated by her mother and books, then after her family was killed she was raised by throne keeper  Farvad at Tu’whacca’s temple then trained for a bit with the sword masters at Leki’s Blade
Personal
Patron Deity (if any): Meridia, Sheogorath, Clavicus Vile (not really a patron but more of just a pain in the ass cause he’s her father)
Political Alliance (if any): Daggerfall Covenant
Strongest Skills: beating up daedric princes, fighting, magic
Strengths: very protective, will go to hell and back for the people she loves. kind despite her initial reluctance to help out, she’s not one to turn people away who need help. persuasive and she easily wins people over through her actions. levelheaded most of the time.
Weaknesses: prone to angry outbursts. sometimes she can lose control of her storms. reckless, she thinks she can’t be killed (again) and it causes her to rush headfirst into danger. always insists on handling things on her own. thinks too black and white, she is always learning how it’s not always this or that
Spouses? Flings? Lovers?: cresseida was never interested in love as she was too hellbent on getting revenge on those who killed her home and family, and later on stopping molag bal and mannimarco, and most of her life she refused to open up to anyone, secretly afraid of them getting taken from her. darien was one of her first friends, and the way she came to care so much about him caught her by surprise
Most difficult quest they’ve been on: taking on nocturnal after watching darien die right in front of her
Jail Time: none she’s a good noodle (unless you count coldharbour...?)
Largest Bounty Held: none. crime is wrong and she’ll kill you if she sees you doing it
How do they get gold?: selling random loot off her dead enemies and doing things for people
Are werebeings and vampires Vile Creatures or Simply Misunderstood?: she used to loath vampires until she met Verandis and was proved how such creatures can choose to do good and be trusted. she has yet to meet a good werewolf though
Goals in Life: protect tamriel and its inhabitants *thumbs up*
Deepest Regret: not trying hard enough to hunt down her family’s killers (despite being like 12 at the time lol), not trying hard enough to look for anyone who survived like her cousin Rafiyah who turned out to have been alive this whole time, not telling Darien how she felt sooner
Greatest Hope: despite all the hell she has gone through, looking back, so much good has happened. she has traveled to so many beautiful and astonishing places and met so many wonderful people that would not have happened had she stayed in Hammerfell
Flaws: oh i accidentally put these under weaknesses lol oh well they’re kinda similar
Fears: losing. letting evil win. although she’s super confident in her abilities there is always that one shred of doubt that she won’t win this time. also she’s afraid of losing the friends she’s made, especially her cousin
What makes them happy: being with Rafiyah, petting her clannfear, her cooked food, seeing a daedric prince lose miserably at her hands, running into her old friends in new places unexpectedly
Hobbies: Despite her cold outwards appearance and her reputation as a powerful hero, cresseida loves to cook and sew. her mother was a seamstress and cress learned a lot from her
Favorite Locations: daggerfall, bergama, all of summerset, ARTAEUM
Eating Habits: the standard three meals a day, though she tends to forget to eat when she’s busy on quests. she does bring a lot of snacks tho for when she’s on the road or in a plane of oblivion, ya know, the usual
Can they cook?: Yes and she’s amazing at it. too bad almost no one knows...
Favorite Food: idk ive never thought about that. most likely something that reminds her of eating around the campfires with the other caravaneers when she was young
Favorite Drink: Tea. She hates alcohol btw
First thing they do at a tavern?: Get a room so she can unpack and wind down in private
Sleeping habits: On her side, back towards the wall if there is one, sword/staff close by. her clannfear sleeps at her feet on alert the whole time
Cities or the Wilds?: cities. through her many adventures cresseida has developed a fondness for the people she has reluctantly sworn to protect, and seeing civilians stumble about their lives reminds her of what she has to do.
Pet Peeves: people who waste her time, liars, cowards, people who talk a lot and very loudly
Describe their bedroom or home: pretty bare, she has always been a minimalist who packs lightly cause she never stays in one place
Opinions on daedra: very easy to hate them once coldharbour happened, though after she found out she was a demiprince while she was in the alik’r it really turned her world upside down.
