Idk if anyone has done this yet, but I doubt I can fit this all into a poll lol
What was the thing that got you into The Elder Scrolls games, and eventually the fandom?
The thing that got me invested was when I saw my old childhood friend’s brother playing Skyrim on the PlayStation. I thought it looked fun and I ended up buying the game ages ago when I was but a wee lass. Later on, I invested into Oblivion, then Morrowind!
From then on, Elder Scrolls made me realize my love for RPGs and got me invested into stuff like Soulsborne games, Dragon Age, and now, Baldur’s Gate 3.
I got into the fandom whenever I saw an artist on Deviantart named SlayerSyrena made a bunch of comics about their Dark Brotherhood OC in Skyrim. Now, here I am either eating the delicious arts or making comics on my main.
We're celebrating, as today marks the 30th anniversary of The Elder Scrolls. We've had a lot of adventures over the years, and we're looking forward to many more to come.
But for now, grab yourself a bite to eat and join the festivities!
for the dark oc asks: 5 for Sylvie, and 7 for Sophrine?
5. What is your OC's moral code?
"I can do whatever I want, so it's a good thing most of what I want is to party down and help out the little guy. Also, steal from rich people."
7. How far is your OC willing to go to get what they want?
...Riften.
No, but seriously, Sophrine is a very compassionate girl and tends to put the needs of others before herself. It's almost annoying how wholesome she is.
Got on the thief path very early, in an attempt to protect younger brother from difficult realities. It cost him their relationship as family, although he considered himself deceived and betrayed in the first place, which is why they stopped speak with each other until the Oblivion crisis. After the events, he changed his view on many things, and now holds a large load of guilt, regret, and deep hatred for most Aedra and Daedra, with the exception of I'ffre and Mephala.
Complex nature. Basically, Eyh prefer to live by his own rules that lead him straight into troubles, but has the ability to learn from mistakes and give preference to thinking, telling the truth and lying when needed, although he still an extremely careless and heavily stubborn person. But Elfmer was not afraid to be responsible for the actions he can commit in extreme cases. Somehow for long life malice and the ability to have fun was still with him, but it was the only thing that kept him from wanting to surrender to society.
Supports Green Pact, BUT is not a member of the Aldmeri Dominion. In addition to the Bosmer traditions, he also considers the worship of the saints of Morrowind as his own, as well as to the Tribunal. He continued to worship them as saints in 4E.
Fluent Danmeri, Bosmeri. Knows Nordic quite well.
Eystomand Sedalu
Patriotically served the Tribunal, nearly died from Mannimarco ritual and was in army against Mehrunes Dagon. He literally devoted his life to fighting the House of Troubles and Dagoth Ur, and did it well, but that didn't stop others from treating him like a dirty half-blood anyway.
Avoiding his double nature (which was reflected both in hermaphrodism, mental issues and mixed blood), he was distinguished by extreme conservatism and impatience, which was reflected in his poems as an Buyoant Armiger, in the form of unsentimental, but patriotic lines. That can be a reason why he in a fragile relationship with older brother.
For unknown reason he lost his memory and ends up in the prison of the Imperial City. According to rumors, he died during the Oblivion crisis, but other sources for some reason refer to the Daedric prince Sheogorath. At the time of 3E 433 he was 814 years old. Ironically, he repeated all he did before memory incident, but as new person called Tolin.
Fluent Dunmeri, learned Bosmeri on a bet, but speaks poorly. Also has some knowlege in Chimeris and Daedric.
