Melchior grew up as the youngest of the Silverblood brood in Markarth. He was a problem child, didn't get along with his siblings, and didn't have much of a head for business. So, the family patriarch arranged to have him sent to the Vigilants of Stendarr for boarding school in preparation for a monastic life of tribute to the Divines, and in this way he could still bring some honor to the family.
He is now an adult, and has spent years studying and training at a monastery in Hjaalmarch. He is about to start his acolyte training as a journeyman daedra-hunter, and embarks on a trip back home to Markarth to celebrate his graduation with his family. Little does he know, Stendarr has chosen him as a holy champion, and made him Dragonborn in order to fulfill that destiny.
Loyalty: High to Vigilants & Silverbloods, medium to Nords & other Divine-worshippers
Sanity: Low (hears voices of the Divines, and Daedric princes, may be hallucinations?)
Cruelty: Medium (will mercilessly purge/purify sinners and abominations)
Piety: Very high, can be self-righteous, scrupulously (naively?) lawful
Passion: Hates daedra, undead, and abominations
Selfishness: Low (except, selfish desires may masquerade as hallucinatory divine commands)

Well, as a new Vigilant, it was time to pay a visit to my folks back in Markarth and share the good news that I'd graduated from being a neophyte and was ready to start adventuring! They'd be proud of how much more mature and responsible I've become, I thought, thanks to my training at the Hall (and being away from their well-intended but suffocating presence). I gathered up some supplies and headed out on the path to the Reach. My comrades gifted me a Shield of Stendarr and a sturdy mace, and my friend Emma even agreed to accompany me (I half think she may have a cougar crush on me...). We bade farewell to the faithful and our Stormcloak guests, and headed out South, hoping to make Whiterun in a couple days.
