Faustine Routhier

Race: Breton
Age: 30
Physical Description: A dark haired, gray eyed Breton woman of average height and build. She's got a scar running from her left eye, across the bridge of her nose, to her right cheek. She normally sticks to a couple pieces of leather armor and earth colored tunics, pants, and traveling cloaks.

Background: Faustine was raised by her single father in Glenumbra in High Rock until he died when she was a teenager. During her youth, she spent a great deal of time studying alchemy and plant lore under the Beldama Wyrd and magic in general under any local mages who would teach her. After her father died, her aunt and uncle attempted to ship her off to study at the Mage's College in Skyrim. She studied at the college until her mid twenties when her interest in and practice of more occult branches of magic (cough, necromancy) was nearly discovered by one of her fellow mages (who conveniently died in a cave in during an exploration of an old nordic ruin). (Not sure if this was intentional yet. I'm still deciding on her alignment.). Faustine left the college voluntarily to wander Skyrim (and Tamriel as a whole) shortly after.

(I'm also thinking her mother might have been a Forsworn. Maybe Faustine inherited the whole Daedra worship tendency. Because Daedra are cool).

Sorry for my delay, I'll have a character sheet up asap.

So . . . which Daedra in particular would you want to bring in. I was thinking of a few .. . Mephala. . .

I'm partial to Sheogorath or Sanguine myself. I'm still working out my character but I should have her ready sometime tomorrow.

Agreed on both. Nocturnal would be good too. . .. Eh, we'll just include all of them.

I vote for all. Why limit it? XD

Also, I typically play female characters, but I could try a male Nord. I sometimes get stuck on gender cliches though.

Whatever you feel most comfortable with. XD I usually stick to females too, but we can always add characters later on.

- - - Updated - - -

And you could just play a really effeminate Nord guy . . . which would disrupt both the hypermasculine cliche and the Nord cliche . . .

Oh gods! XD

El oh el

XD Ok, ok. I'm done. But yeah, whatever you're comfortable with. My point is just that if you're worried about cliches, we can definitely find . . . the opposite cliche . . .Everything is a cliche.

Quick question, do we want to do multiple characters, or just do a bunch of NPCs along with the two main protagonists?

Name: Svenja Ironhand

Race: Nord

Age: 32

Physical Description: Svenja stands around 5’8” and weighs roughly 190 Lbs with the typical Nord blond hair and blue eyes. Her hair is kept in braids to keep it free from her face. Still the proud Nord that she is, she sticks with classic Nord steel and leather armor and wields both a skyforge steel axe and round shield. She also carries a finely crafted hunting bow and a full quiver of steel arrows.

Background: Svenja grew up in the years leading to the great war between the Nords and Imperials, a war that claimed her father’s life. Once the war was over, she remained with her mother in Whiterun until she was old enough to strike out on her own. Since then, she has stayed on the move taking on odd jobs, adventuring, looting, and bounty hunting to make ends meet.

I was thinking we'd start out with these two, then add a few more to the adventuring party as we develop the plot a bit more. And I like your character. :)

Hehe, thanks :)

Sounds good to me.

So, do we need to brainstorm the beginning more?

StormyNyte

Probably wouldn't hurt

Let's start by picking a region in Skyrim. What city are we closest too?

- - - Updated - - -

For example, do we start with one or both of us crossing a border from one of the neighboring countries, etc?

Hm... I was kind of thinking that they'd cross paths somewhere near Winterhold, but I'll have to review the map again lol

I'll have to fire up my game again tonight just to give myself a refresher.

I think the only north(ish) of Winterhold is Solstheim. Maybe Blacklight in Morrowind. . .

NightingaleRed1

I feel dumb. We talked about them exploring Dwemer ruins didn't we? And there are ruins near Winterhold, like Alftand.

StormyNyte
03-18-2019, 03:38 AM
Lol indeed.

Don't worry, I forgot about that too until you mentioned it. XD

NightingaleRed1
03-18-2019, 02:04 PM
XD yeah. But anyway, we can start put there, maybe with one of us running into a horde of dwemer constructs. Or bandits. Or Falmer. Or all three.

StormyNyte

Svenja blunders into an ambush and inadvertently sets off a trigger plate in the process. "Talos take my damn luck!" XD

NightingaleRed1
03-19-2019, 12:01 AM
XD Pretty much. Don't forget the flame traps.

StormyNyte
03-23-2019, 03:19 AM
Gag, sorry! I know I keep poofing. We need to get an IC going lol

NightingaleRed1
03-24-2019, 12:07 AM
Yes! Do you want to start, or should I?

StormyNyte
03-24-2019, 12:20 AM
I'll see what I can work up tonight

Sounds good. It doesn't have to be super extensive.
