Personality

When you first meet Lloyd you will certainly get the impression that Lloyd is a rational, serious young man with his priorities set straight. He does his best to always keep up the good form of a professional fighting guilt member when going to places he is not familiar with. Towards strangers, Lloyd is generally suspicious of them in the beginning. He is used to being judged and disliked for his 'ugly' appearance of being an albino, and therefore expects to be treated badly.

As he always had to fight off the bullying and aggression against himself simply because of his albinism, Lloyd has quite a hot-headed personality. He is not afraid to stand his ground and make his opinion heard. He is easily provoked and more than once got into fights for people trying to make fun of him. If something does not go according to Lloyds expectations, he can get really stubborn. If you get onto Lloyds bad side, he will make sure you know it. People that are unfriendly towards him will get stink-eyes left and right, Lloyd will always be of the opposite opinion and he will never agree with them - just out of spite! And if those unfriendly folks happen to be high ranked people, Lloyd will (probably) keep his mouth shut and try to keep a serious yet unpleased fascade. Once you are on Lloyds shit-list, it is incredibly hard to make him reconsider. He is very vengeful, though he rarely actively seeks out revenge. But he certainly never forgets.

​

If Lloyd meets kind people that do not judge him by his appearance, he is happy to show his better sides. In fact, Lloyd hates all those serious frowns and much rather walks through the world with a smile. The young dunmer is a pretty happy-go-lucky boy who would much rather enjoy every experience with open arms than having to hide from them. So when he starts getting comfortable around someone, the young fighter turns out to have quite the bubbly and fun personality. He is easy to get along with as long as nobody pokes into his obvious weakspots. He is often interested in others that treat him kind since there are not many that he can call friends. Lloyd is not the brightest tool in the shed, and he knows it. He is humorous and can take jokes on his own name for as long as they are not meant in a hurtful way. With friends, Lloyd gets loud and likes to engage others in conversations - he doesnt like silence particularly much.

​

One thing that also gets very clear is that Lloyd is gullible to an unbelievable extent. Lloyd has not seen much of the world outside his home town, just a few missions that led him outside the ashlands. He has little knowledge of the world outside and therefore can get easily excited when something catches his interest. Especially people he trusts have an easy game lying to Lloyd without him even realizing it. Lloyd is usually too dumb to find contradictions between his knowledge and what people say, so he is pretty bad at telling a lie from truth.

​

One particular scenario has to be mentioned here, namely when his master, best friend and later lover Dragomir is around him. Dragomir is able to draw the best of Lloyd. The loyality Lloyd shows towards Dragomir is unmatched. The young blood is completely different towards him. Drago is the most trusted person in his life, so he feels absolutely and completely comfortable around him. That's why he might make comments or jokes around him that he usually wouldnt. Also, it is obvious to everyone that Lloyd actively seeks out his attention and he seemingly can't get enough of it.

Background Story

Lloyd grew up as the only child of Elaine and Nisil Ramalith. His first years in his childhood were rather happy. His loving mother Elaine raised him rather sheltered, not taking him outside a lot. She was a stay-home mommy to him and kept her days busy with her child and housework. His father Nisil was rarely at home. As the only earner of the family, he took whatever job he could get, though Lloyd never knew what his occupation truly was.

When Lloyd was only 6 years old, everything changed.

One fateful night, the little boy was woken up by loud knocking from downstairs. Curious about what the noise was he carefully took the steps down. That was when he could hear his mother scream and cry from inside the livingroom area. Alarmed and scared, the young boy ran away from the noise, into the kitchen that laid across from the livingroom. Scared as he was, the child hid in the low cupboads which just had enough room for Lloyd to crawl inside. Just in time as the noises came closer! With a racing heart, Lloyd peeked out of the cupboards to see what was going on. All he could see were legs, several of them. From his mother, and father, and 3-4 other men that Lloyd did not know. Elaine was crying, screaming, while Nisil seemed to be fighting with one of the men. The strangers had the upper hand without a question. And in front of Lloyds eyes both Elaine and Nisil were slaughtered. Their screams, the blood, the way their bodies fell to the floor, slightly twitching, trying to survive - these memories never left Lloyds mind, not for one night. But Azura herself must have had her protective hands over Lloyd as he stayed undetected that night. He was the sole survivor.

​

After this, Lloyd was left with nothing. An orphan, broken and scarred from what he witnessed. But the worst was yet to come as nobody in the village of Ald'Ruhn was willing to take the orphaned boy in. Lloyd was never confronted with being 'different' before, but he soon began to learn that people seemed to hate him. And the sole reason seemed to be that he looked different than the other dunmer around him. While everyone had greyish, dark-blueish or even blackish skin, Lloyds was pale in colour. His hair was not black or dark-red, instead it was bright teal coloured. And his eyes were not sharp and bright as the eyes staring back at him, but rather dull wine-red. Nobody wanted a child this ugly. And for the first time Lloyd learned of these cruel worlds. Ugly, monster, mutant, bastard, freak, a disgrace. The little boy had lost everything, suffered from the traumatic events, and yet nobody was willing to give him a chance.

​

Since he could not stay parentless, the authorities made the little boy the responsability of the fighters guild. A young child, 6 years old, broken and scared, was given to rough warriors who had little to no interest in the boy. There was nobody who took his time for Lloyd - instead, Lloyd just grew upsomehow finding his place. Or rather: He grew up cleaning the guild day in and day out, get groceries, taking care of weapons and armor and doing every task in the book that nobody ever wanted to do. And the young boy hated it. At some point he had the hopes of becoming a fighter, too! Once he was old enough he could perhaps learn to fight and help the guild! There was nothing else for him anyways. But he never got the chance. He was 'too stupid' to learn anything. He had no talent, and noone to believe in him. Lloyd was in a guild full of people, yet alone. For 6 more years, Lloyd just existed. He functioned, without any purpose. With noone helping him to heal old wounds, with noone showing him ways into a brighter future. He was 12 years only, and yet he already thought about just running away, somewhere into the ashlands, without any goal. He was convinced that anywhere was better than the guild, and even death might have been a better fate in his opinion. Yet the little boy ws simply too scared to ever go through. His heart was not ready to give up yet.

​

And then.. everything changed again, when he arrived. Dragomir.
