My new character is a Knight Templar, so i figure he got into a "theological debate" with a couple of Tribunal Temple ordinators and was shipped back to Cyrodill from Morrowind before he had an "accident" in the ministy of truth.
Anybody else come up with a reason for your character being in jail at the start of the game?
Mine got into a debate with a guard in Chorrol about why the earth is round and when I was travelling from Chorrol to Bruma on my paint horse I got into another debate in the wilderness with a guard about how I have never seen Godzuki (son of godzilla) and he marched me off down to Bruma prison.
Savio Vega is taking more shots than Jake "The Snake" does during happy hour.
I had an Imperial, and his backstory was: he was in the Imperial Legion and spoke against bribes and general wickedness of the legion and was eventually betrayed by his corrupt mentor and thrown in jail.

Since the game clearly states that you have no idea why you were in prison, I made this one up. You were thrown in jail by a highly placed Imperial Legion officer, who was actually a member of Mythic Dawn. The same one who let the assassins into the Palace. Perhaps Mehrunes Dagon sent a vision to Camaron, and he used his influence to throw the potential hero in prison. So, unwittingly, they played right into the Divines' plan. Or maybe it was Talos or Akatosh that sent that vision to fool Camaron. Nevertheless, through their treachery, they actually made it possible for you to meet the Emperor, according to the Gods' plan.
I was in jail because I took my armour off to collect the ring of burden and forgot to put them back on. Even 7 stone, youthful wood-elves are banned from parading in their underwear when oblivion is facing us.
