I was tagged by @numeriku. Thank you! :з
So here we are, look at all my Skyrim babies. I’ve fallen in this hell again. Names under screens, if anyone curious.
And yea my PC is a potato *shrug*
I tag... Well, anyone who want it, lol.
My Skyrim character whom I adore everyone, yes she is perfect I know you don’t need to say. Well SHE is the artwork could be better
Anyway I tried to do a ‘landscape’ esque picture and while the coloring could be better I am proud of the fact that I sat down and did it so there ya go
Anyway she has a lot of different names so i just call her Prisoner, this is her in her early adventuring days
So yeah :)
Haha oh boy I can't wait to flesh out my character's backstory man I love Elder Scrolls lore-
3 hours of lore deep diving later after discovery major timeline inconsistencies in backstory:
Hello again everyone! So, I'm very glad that you liked my character Bruno, so I wanted to introduce her friend!
Say hello to Talya Belanor, the Last Dragonborn, the Savior of the Sun, the girl who defeated the World Eater Alduin, and just a Nord who is tired of life.
She defeated Harkon, Miraak, Alduin. She became a loyal follower of Hermaeus Mora, Thane of the Nine Realms, Legate of the Empire and so on…
She travels throughout Tamriel for most of the year and spends the winter in her home in Windhelm. If you visit her in winter, which her friends sometimes can’t do because of work and snow, she will be very happy! She will also cook an excellent, appetizing lunch for you.
Hug her, she's tired!
P.S. I'm incredibly happy that someone liked my characters! So much so that now I’ll fly to the Shivering Isles and dance in Sheogorath’s palace!)
I'm addicted to Skyrim so here is my bosmer Dragonborn, Kukka Kaarna >:3 They're also werewolf but rarely transform since they like to loot everyones stuff wich you cannot do when in wolf form... Also they are married to Aela the Huntress!! (Gays go woof)
Out of curiosity, what is your icon?
(wow omg thank you for the ask!)
my icon is a picture of two statues embracing:
mostly for the aesthetic but also because it reminds me a lot of my skyrim ldb and miraak! :^)
“Never the same” Miraak Drabble
(Some very short angst with my favorite boi)
He was no fool. The world was different, he knew it would be. That wasn't the problem though. The change was expected, after all. Thousands, upon thousands of years of mysterious appearing books floating before his very eyes- each word and it's stylistic flow changing from years of evolution and worming it's way into his mind, allowing some tether to cling to..granting the ability to understand that though the plane he once was imprisoned on remained ever still- frozen- the world he truly belonged to was changing.
At first it was a terrible feeling, knowing not only that whatever people he once knew were lost to time- dead- but his culture itself was no more? Yeah, it was terrible. However the old saying was true, with time..that horror faded. If anything, it only gave him the fire he needed to follow through with his eon long plans to finally return.
At least until now.
You, of course, were wonderful..he loved you in the most complex way. Enemies to lovers, a destined union. Two dovahkiins, the very material of a legendary story. Bards would practically cry, begging to compose some feeble song regarding the story of your love. That was enough of that. Besides, at this moment you were preoccupied with whatever sweet dreams the divines could fathom, sleeping peacefully in your shared bed..perhaps even reaching for him? He’d certainly like to think so.
Regardless, the lack of your presence only gave way to an already over active mind to become completely inconsolable. He could feel that the deeper he went into his thoughts, the heavier the pounding of his heart was. The sound itself was deafening, is this what madness felt like? It couldn’t be.
Whatever it was, the more he focused upon reality, the deeper the sorrow became. Even with monuments of old still standing before him, he knew they were never going to be like they were in his past.
Perhaps this is why whenever the gentle sea breeze hit his bare face, he then could feel the most peculiar of things..tears. Tears silently falling with only the two moons and the sky as witnesses.
You've been visited by the random OC question fairy! :D ~☆
Is your character concerned with becoming a better person? Do they consciously take steps to improve themselves? Why or why not?
ah thank you for this!! i was so excited to see it in my inbox 👀
for now i'll stick to my skyrim peeps since i've written them most recently.
for tharya (my nord ldb) who has good morals but can definitely diverge from them occasionally and knowingly, being a good person is all she has ever tried to be - however, being a better person is exceedingly difficult. she often already puts herself at risk for others and takes care of people before herself, she's not a very selfish/self-focused person, so being "better" in her mind would be being better for other people, which in turn may actually be destructive for her. she's kind of like an endless uphill trend but never reaching the goal.
for miraak, simple answer no. to be fair he's already changed A LOT from who he used to be, both out of necessity and driven by his surroundings. he knows he isn't "morally good and pure" like tharya, and he doesn't care. he's done his changing to adapt to life post-apocrypha, and he very much hits a plateau after a long period of dramatic growth that he doesn't really grow or decline from afterwards.
thank you for the ask!
okay. going out on a limb here and posting my skyrim/miraak&ldb series just to see if it gets any traffic. there are 6 fics in all. please be gentle, it’s been written over the course of 3 years after a long long drought of me not writing at all. there’s inconsistencies and bad writing galore (especially the first fics, BIG OOF) but eventually i will edit everything into coherency. like fine wine, the fics get better and longer the more you progress, with eventually revenant as my crowning glory. enjoy!

tag the oc that has a huge dick
tag the oc that has small breasts
yaaay!
for better reference, check out illumancer's old drawings of their miraak - i'm heavily inspired by that, because it was the first representation of miraak that i'd ever seen that totally agreed with me.
tall (which i believe is the only fandom-wide consensual characteristic), broad shouldered, long and thick limbed, strong boulder of a man. rich brown skin (in my canon, he's part yokudan) with these gorgeous golden eyes like q sunset; but, in the modern era, they're notably unsettling to look at because of their lack of life. they occasionally flare with emotion, but most of the time they are cold and flat, and despite their beauty, that thousand-yard-stare is difficult to keep prolonged eye contact with.
his hair is a bit unruly, a bit wavy but not curly (unless it grows long) and usually parted, but not slicked back, with some strands framing or falling around the edges of his forehead. his nose is broad, his jaw is broad and a bit squarish, his lips are soft and everything about his face is proportionate. and his eyebrows are pretty thick, but neat (once read a post where they said people w thicker eyebrows are more angry so YEAH).
in my canon (and mostly because, when i first started writing, i was a bit all over the place and not thinking much about anything) miraak takes his mask off almost immediately out of apocrypha. he leaves it in his backpack, and later, in their room at the college, and after that, tucked away in one of those low, long chests at the foot of the bed in their home. he never touches it unless he needs to - and he almost never needs to. he doesn't want to keep wearing the mask outside of apocrypha because it reminds him of hermaeus mora, it reminds him of the young, stupid, prideful man who thought he could cheat a daedric prince, who thought he could topple dragons, and who thought he could abandon his family in pursuit of false knowledge. he switches out the mask for a hood, usually pulling it up to cast a shadow on his face but not hide it. he deserves to be seen.
even the scars, the two over the bridge of his nose, and the one in his eyebrow. he leaves the mask behind because he forgot his face in apocrypha, and is too terrified of forgetting again to don the mask once more.
that, and he enjoys tharya being able to caress his face whenever she wants to.
Still sick.
What does your Miraak look like under the mask? Or does he never, ever take it off?
some wip wednesday!
just wanted to share some of the skyrim project i'm working on :3 hoping to start posting in april (or at least put ch1 up before my ao3 draft dies lmao). open tag for anyone who wants to join, but here are some folks i know may have WIPs of any kind:
@kiir-do-faal-rahhe @helix-studios117 @nuwanders
Suddenly Miraak was below her on the ground, his eyes widening and the stench of fear flooding through his pores as he called her name; he was so distant, so slow. Her saliva slathered over her chin and dripped onto his neck, onto his pulse, quick and warm. She felt dirt push under her nails as she dug her hands into the soft ground on either side of his head - somehow his arm had detached from her, she felt it slip away as her back began to bend and crawl and her skin moved and bubbled and trembled, stretching so thin it turned white, and then a murky brown-grey.
"Tharya," Miraak whispered, struggling for breath as her face twisted and snarled just above him, as her teeth lengthened and sharpened. "I'm here, elskavin. Don't. I'm here. Your family-" she screamed at him as he spoke, a scream that had a thousand different sounds behind it, augmented chords that pulled and plucked her voice into a gargling roar, and then a guttural howl.
last line tag
OP did NOT tag me (@pitiable-arisen) but i wanted to do it anyway :3 i've been getting close to finishing the last chapter of my new fic and wrote some miraak bangers (as usual, he always gets my best lines, sorry tharya)
“Good heroes do not exist.” Lofrek jumped a little at those words, surprised by their force and clarity since Miraak had been murmuring his sentences until now. But he said it so staunchly, so fully, that Lofrek couldn’t help but peer up at him. He would have to get used to that gaze if he wanted to make any of this work in the years they would inevitably be around each other. “They are only people whose shortcomings are weighted less when faced with the grandiosity of their accomplishments. Your sister tries to be something that does not exist, and cannot be attained - she knows this. It makes her better, but it destroys her.”
tagging anyone and everyone who wants to share! @kiir-do-faal-rahhe @nusaran @evil-is-relative @elventhief
IT'S UP!!!!!!! description from ao3:
“You are a beast, Tharya Stormhand. Dragonborn, soldier, werewolf - all beasts of different titles, but beasts nonetheless. You have never been anything more. You will never be anything better. Isn’t that why you gave your soul to me?”
Last Seed, 4E 208. Almost a full year since the events of Revenant, the Dragonborn - and their burgeoning family - have found home in Whiterun, with work and adventure to keep them happily busy. When the summer nights grow watchful and the moons deadly, Tharya finds herself at the center of the Wild Hunt, desperately outrunning a secret that has both plagued and formed her life and relationships for the past eleven years. Unwilling to let her long years of evasion go unpunished, the Daedric Prince Hircine gives chase, and the Hunt begins.
i like dropping little tidbits about upcoming fics as if i'm a huge name brand movie studio dropping tiny crumbs of information to goad people so they freak tf out when the full thing drops 😌
reblogging bc i'd love questions :3
I wanted to make a (serious this time) oc ask game of my own. feel free to ask me any of these on my oc blog if you'd like.

Moving forward I won't be writing lots of backstory or personality for the designs, but this guy is my current Skyrim character, the Arch Mage of the College of Winterhold and a daedra/necromancy researcher.
