[edit] Overview
Jov Blackheart is my online alias. You may know me from the Elder Scrolls forums or Star Wars: Galaxies, but probably not.
I'm currently a full-time student studying networking & computer technology, having earned the A+ and Network+ certifications, with plans to get the MCP and possibly CCNA. However, I'm at a transition point in my life right now, and am considering futures ranging from attending film school to fighting in the IDF.
My interests include watching & making films, computers, the Internet, forums, non-linear games, MMORPGs, the great outdoors, and women (a deprived pleasure).
My major Wiki contributions are to the The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion page, the Wookiee page, and the Buoyant Armigers page, which is a coalition of Urban Dead players from the TES Forums, on the Urban Dead Wiki.
Wikipedia pages I started:
[edit] What do you aspire to be?
At first it was: “A scientist”
And then it was: An AI programmer
After that it was: A game designer
Then I settled for: A computer tech guy
While presently considering: A filmmaker
The Rule of Thumb: My work to be my hobby.
Problem with The Rule of Thumb: I need a healthy hobby.
[edit] If I had three wishes
Maybe:
1) To have the ultimate pocket-PC/limited time-controlling device, which remains unaffected (by the time travel), and conveniently located on my person. I can operate it merely by thought. On it, I will view & manage three life 'save files': One Long-term save (Months/Years/+), 1 Long to Short term save (Days/Weeks/Months/Year or Less), and a 'quicksave' (Weeks/Days/Hours/Minutes/Seconds), with the option of starting over (New Game). Also, I can easily get the absolute true answer to any question, and have it graph out any statistic with perfect accuracy. It has the full functionality of any regular PC, is optimally tiny, lightweight, & comfortable to use & carry. It has practically unlimited storage, can meet all time's system & compatibility requirements, has perfect-quality visual & audio output, and faultlessly impenetrable system security, so nobody can see/hear anything on it unless I desire them to. It also employs microscopic machines to instantly upgrade & repair the device (& themselves) either by themselves, or under my command. :D
2) Shape shifting. To assume the abilities & likeness of any one person, animal, or thing- without limit.
3) Mastery of my body. I'd love to have the strength, agility, and endurance necessary to do all the amazing martial arts maneuvers like successive flips and wall-running, and have monk-like abilities, like being able to stop my heart & suppress pain. I'd constantly hop around and free-run city streets.
[edit] Pet peeves
- Having wet socks
- Being asked questions w/ plainly obvious or common sense answers
- Inconsideration, including:
People that think only of themselves
Groups of people walking slowly in front of me
Line cutters
Loud people
Selfish people that constantly expect others to share
- Stupid bossy people & attention whores
- People that are afraid to show weakness
- The smell of calcium supplements
- Overly crunchy snow
- Friction from chalk-like powder on my hands (Produces an effect similar to nails scratching a chalkboard in me)
- When people think I'm younger then I am (It can practically ruin my day sometimes)
- Passive-aggressiveness & people who say "sorry" too much (although I'm occasionally guilty of both, but working on it)
- When people say they'll be your friend, or they love you, but don't really mean it
- Melodrama
- Barking dogs, and the owners that let them
- Raisins when mixed in with oatmeal or bread (though I like raisins by themselves and in Raisin Bran)

Back-story: Named after the legendary samurai Miyamoto Musashi, Jov is one of Cyrodiil's most naturally talented swordsmen. As he was passing through the Imperial City, Jov stopped for a drink at a Tavern. A drunk local admired his blade & challenged him to a duel for it. Never one to dismiss a challenge, Jov accepted & disarmed the man with ease. Humiliated by his quick defeat, the drunk assaulted Jov when he turned his back to leave. In a defensive reaction, Jov swung his blade around, incidentally severing three fingers on the man's upraised left hand. Being an outsider, Jov has been placed in a holding cell until a proper investigation can be conducted.

Guilds: Arena Grand Champion, Blades Member
Second/Stealth/Neutral Character:
- Name: Jho'vauna
- Age: 27
- Sex: Female
- Race: Khajiit
- Height: 5'4"
- Weight: 115
- Alignment: Neutral Evil
- Class: Assassin
- Specialization: Stealth
- Preferred Weapon/s: Claws, and fine poisoned longbows
- Preferred Armor/s: Glass and hooded robes
- Birthsign: The Thief
- House Location: Small hideout in the Imperial City slums
- Horse: Nightmare
- Purpose: Second play as a female & using stealth
- Play-style: RP sleeping. Will only kill those assigned to her, steals everything/anything. Never Fast Travels.
- Plan: 1) Rise through the ranks in the Thieves Guild. 2) Join & become master of Dark Brotherhood.
- Appearance: Beautiful, with green eyes, fine light-tan fur, slim but highly toned & muscular. She's perpetually concealed in dark hooded robes & armor.
Back-story: Jho’vauna is an independent and highly skilled thief. The victim of a slaver raid in the Elsweyr wastelands at the young age of seven, Jho’vauna had to witness the vicious murder of her mother & two older brothers when they resisted. She was transported to Vvandenfell, Morrowind and sold to be the single hand for a moderately successful crop farmer. Her new "master" turned out to be highly abusive, overworking her while feeding her negligently, beating and eventually molesting her. Five years later, Jho’vauna had become prodigiously strong of body from toiling in the field for so many years, and strong of will from so much hardship. When the farmer came to her again at night, she strangled him to death in his slumber in retaliation. Stealing some proper clothes, and packing gold and dry rations into a sack, she fled southwest from the province. Over a month later, Jho’vauna was found, collapsed and on the brink of death, in a ditch by patrolling Imperial soldiers, in Cyrodiil -some 500 miles away- fur stained with blood and grime, slave collar still hanging from her starved flesh. After spending a few days in a local hospital she showed remarkable recovery & was transferred to The Uriel Septim Imperial Orphanage in Cyrodiil. Of course, Jho’vauna could not revert to a life of laughter and games among children; she had already suffered enough for several lifetimes. Being antisocial and a Khajiit, Jho’vauna became an easy target for the others to tease on the playground. In the passing weeks she developed immense anger towards the happy children, whose lives had been comprised of naught but sweets, feathered beds, sunshine and games, at least in comparison. The more they bothered her- the worse it got, until, at 15, she attacked one of the bullies, clawing out his eyes and mauling his face beyond any recovery possible through modern medicine or magic. Fleeing once again, she lived out the next 12 years in the streets and shadows of the capital, as a pick-pocket and thief. She grew to be a strikingly beautiful woman, but remained modest, dressing in an exceedingly conservative manner, covering herself in hooded cloaks and thick leather. Seemingly, her skills as a thief grew in proportion to her striking beauty, thus Jho’vauna made a hobby out of breaking into the Emperor's personal library & reading until early in the morning, often "checking out" a few tomes until her next visit. It was on one of these returning trips into the library when she was ambushed by a platoon of royal guards, and thrown into the dungeon prison. Leaving her to wonder by whom they had been tipped off, and why she had been considered important enough to have sent nearly thirty of the Emperor's most elite guardsman to capture…
