this guy has been rolling around in my head for a year or so. his name is Qa'Shaar and he's a Sphynx Khajiit who was banished from Elswyer. due to his furless and skrawny body he prefers non-metal piercings such as wood, bone and amber and must wear many layers of clothing to protect his skin.
unfortunately for him when he was kicked out, Cyrodiil was suffering through civil unrest. not wanting to be caught up in another country's war he traveled with a small caravan to the north, eventually ending up in Skyrim. he hated it immediately. in order to barter passage to his true destination, Hammerfell, he plied his merchant trade in Skyrim. in another unfortunate happenstance, the Nords or Skyrim look unkindly upon all non-human races, even more so when their appearance deviates from the norm.
