Guys if my character is accepted, worry not about the guild.
If Daud is accepted I have something for the introduction post that sets him on his way which would disband his current guild and make sense for him to join a new one..
This shouldn't be the final card, I can add more detail in his skills and such, but this is the base character.
Name: Daud (Pronounced -D-OW-D)
Race: Nord
Sex: Male
Age: 25
Birth place: High Rock
Affiliations: Many people know the tale of Daud, they even tell ghost stories.
Daud has many clients, and once ran his own guild of assassins.
Daud has worked with and against The Imperials, and The Thalmor. They see him as a neutral party and would make dealings with him again. He has also worked with The Stormcloaks, he prefers the The Imperials as they pay more.
Appearance: Short brown hair, blue eyes, no facial hair, a noticeable scar running down his right eye- it starts a little above the eyebrow and runs down past his eye and nearly reaching his lip. Daud is not the average Nord build and is instead a slimmer, more agile build.

Gear: Daud wears a custom leather armour, it looks somewhat like it does in the picture above. He has a variety of poisons and an ebony dagger and sword at his disposal.
Personality: Very calculating and cunning, Daud is a very calm and collected man, and he takes his contracts very seriously. Outside of his contracts around people he doesn't like he is also serious, and keeps his personal matters and life personal.
Fast and strong with a cunning mind, Daud never chooses sides. He believes that your choices always matter, and can have consequences in ways that you couldn't even fathom. He doesn't believe that being bad will only have bad things happen to you, just your choices always matter someone somewhere. He has come to this mind set and thinking after a series of choices, he makes his choices and takes what comes.
The people he becomes familiar with can see he does have emotions, others may be unsure. Daud has good leadership skills and can communicate with others effectively.
His mothers suicide weighs heavily on Dauds shoulders, he takes full responsibility and blame and cannot forgive himself. Daud absolutely cannot abide a mystery.
Likes: Daud likes people who can act professional and people who can think on their feet.
Dislikes: Daud doesn't like people who prefer brute force, he sees it as impatient, stupid and undisciplined. Daud doesn't like being uninformed and left out of the loop, and hates a mystery.
Traits: Loyal, Charismatic, Professional.
History: Daud grew up under very strange circumstances. Dauds mother was a powerful witch. They say his mother went aboard a ship, and when the ship returned everyone was dead and she was pregnant. These are rumours spread in certain parts where Dauds influence has reached, nobody knows for sure. Except Daud. His mother was a very powerful witch however, and was very influential in her coven. Daud lived a normal life for most of his childhood, impressing the kids with his quick hands, speed, stealth and agility. He never lost a game of tag or hide and go seek. When Daud was 15 the coven was slaughtered by witch hunters, few survived. Those that did had a hard time reaching anywhere safe, and a hard time fitting in. Living in a cave was a the only life they knew. They were used to having their privacy, brewing their poisons, tonics and potions whilst performing sacrifices and raising the dead. They couldn't cope with city's life, they moved to a far away village. Daud was left alone, his sister joined his mother and Daud didn't want to leave. A few years went by, Daud created a band of assassins. They quickly spread into a well armed, well organised organisation. There was a lot of money to be had in the assassination business, especially when you become well known. News quickly spread about Daud, he became referred to as 'The knife of High Rock'. He trained his assassins with strength, discipline, good leadership, and a bit of black magic. He is shown to greatly care for his Assassins. He believes that whatever doom is coming for him should not be suffered by them as well.
When Daud 19 he sought out his beloved mother and sister. Through his network of corrupt merchants and contacts, he found them. His mother didn't care that he led a guild of assassins, she supported it. However his sister was ashamed and disgusted, refusing to talk to him with respect. She did feel empathy for him though, she didn't know why but she did, so she couldn't keep up her act and quickly became how she was. She was very disappointed though, her mothers actions didn't seem to phase her.
Dauds mother killed herself a year after Daud found her, she couldn't take it. All her sisters were dead, that's what she considered her fellow witches in the coven. She did brew up a revenge, but left it to Daud in a note. She brewed a special poison which would cause them to experience a very agonising death, as their blood thickened and their organs collapsed they'd feel a sting throughout their insides from the poison.
Daud discovered her body, he took the blame for not being there for his mother more. Daud and his sister, Viera, continued to drift after their mother died. He hasn't heard from her since he was 20.
Daud knew he had a talent for killing, he was stealthy and yet he felt he was lacking something. Killing is all he knows, but he has a different dream in his heart.
