"Like previous Elder Scrolls titles, in Oblivion your character starts out in jail. You start by choosing your character’s race, and then customize your character’s appreance. There’s a ton of customization options here and virtually unlimited faces you can create with the tools given to you. In fact, all the faces in the game were created with this tool so no two NPCs look alike. After setting up your character’s appearance the story starts. The Emperor’s sons have been killed, so the Emperor is being taken away to a safe place. Of course, the secret passage out for the Emperor is right through your jail sail. The Emperor (voice by Patrick Stewart) seesBut we're getting ahead of ourselves."
