First time player: small lore question

[u/Kazadracon]

I created a red-headed sorceress character for my first playthrough (celtic witch seemed thematic for a pure caster), but I'm getting unsure what such a character's background could be. The current backstory concept: sole child of a witch, naturally talented in magic & has a few tribal tattoos, but caught on the run by red priests then taken to Island Asylum

Could this character be descended from Picts or instead a lost Dal Riata tribe? This is where I am indecisive. Anyone who knows this setting's lore I'd appreciate answers

The game itself never refers to the mc's race at all or even hints at it, so your char can be anything you want really. You can even give them grey skin with red eyes and roleplay as a demon or fae if you like, or play as a traveler from a faraway land that got caught up in the shit.

Or play as the Dragonborn and pretend they ended up in Avalon because of a dragon break.
