@Fetzen I really like the character! I do think it's worth mentioning that Dwemer were never in any of the Aldmeri Dominion lands, so the Thalmor claiming ownership of them seems a tad off, and arresting people for exploring them would be well outside of their authority to enforce. There are a bunch of Aleyid ruins in Valenwood, though! Maybe Ercanoriel got interested in ancient elven civilizations and magic and technology first through the Alyeids before personally discovering the Dwemer ruins on his own after he got out of jail?

Thanks for pointing this out! I did a lot of research for this character, but this must be something that slipped past my attention unnoticed.

Him going after Dwemer ruins completely on his own however would throw up the question of where and when he did get the skills he currently has. At the point he was arrested he was rather close to ground zero so I'd need a very good explanation of how he achieved the change/boost in his self-esteem, where he got the equipment if it wasn't for a bunch of other adventurers willing to lend him a helping, looting hand and who trained him. Strolling into dwemer ruins as a completely novice-level one-man-show and doing it the very hard way would be a very, very daredevil move that would well suit his personality, but I'm not entirely confident if this wouldn't be too much.

Therefore I'd like to propose another solution: A transition of his location from Valenvald to Skyrim briefly before or during his arrest. Dunno, but it might just have been an act of bureaucracy and resource management on side of the Thalmor and they could have decided to dispose of him there because pretty much everyone's a tad more pale there, rendering his condition a bit less embarrassing for Altmer standards. The ragtag adventurer's group he encountered in prison there might have been put into arrest for another thing they did together instead of any Dwemer-related affair.

It seems much simpler to me and doesn't throw up a significant bunch of other questions that would require answering.

The Thalmor also love taking credit for things they never had a hand in. So them going "this is elven ruins so step off" isn't too out of character, IMO.

@Fetzen Mayhaps if you go the Skyrim route, one of his fellow adventurers was accused of Talos worship by a Thalmor patrol and everyone with him was seen as an accomplice? It might be able to keep your original idea intact.

The fixed character sheet! Hopefully, it makes Drujha a great fit for the party.

Trying out a fun opinion exercise:

"Aurora, hm? Yes, there's quite a lot to like about that one. Kindred souls perhaps, if for no other reason than our shared love for travel, yes? And surely, we must know by now my appreciation for versatility, so for a woman to pick up as many diverse talents as possible? Scrumptiously sublime. I might just ask for further instruction on self-defense as well, might I add -- her swordplay is really quite something else!"
Garil Mavos, on Aurora

"...But what could be more scrumptious than a pile of delectable secrets? The... ah, the scent of misery clings to his clothes. His breath. Liquor and sweat, a distinct perfume. What makes the difference between brooding children and adults? Thought. A child broods because they know not better, because they have not yet thought through their woes. When a man broods... something's there. Nothing that concerns me I'm sure, but alas, my curiosity! I want a story!"
Garil Mavos, on Lynwen

"Quite dissimilar from myself compared to another Nord I know; not a warrior, me, and I find the value in the capability of bloodshed to be quite low in times of peace or, say, most of most people's weekly or monthly life... but captivating nonetheless for different reasons. All those scars? A tapestry of stories written in bloodied shorthand. Surely there're enough to make the voyage pass quickly, and frankly, I can't wait to count and read them all."
Garil Mavos, on Frygga

"Hmm. Do I have any particular liking for this one? Not in particular, though I'm prone to like most in general. But I like the argonian's company, even if he may not like mine. He entertains me. Much in the way we entertain the daedra with our own squabbling."
Garil Mavos, on Dances-in-Milk

"It's refreshing to see someone so young so interested in the mysteries of the world and the world of mystery. Youthful perspectives perhaps, though a curious thought to think someone so invested would have so little to share of their own experiences, hm? The curse of youth, maybe? What it must be like, I wonder, to live as men or beast with so few years ahead of me."
Garil Mavos, on Drujha

"This one makes me feel... something. The smelly one reminds me of other Dunmer, in the sense that they act in ways to support the reputation we've given ourselves. Likewise, I suspect this one brings more harm to his own people than good. How many argonians, I wonder, were hurt by those spurned once before by him?"
Garil Mavos, on Lurks-at-Dusk

"I know not what to make of Yseline. A familiar face, perhaps. A lost soul? Not knowing where to go next? Ah, yes, I know it well. I remember it staring back at me in the Cheydinhal creek water-- whoops! I let something slip."
Garil Mavos, on Yseline

"Ah, look! What brings this young creature on the high seas? Is he the captain's cabin boy? This'll be quite the enriching experience for the child -- surely nothing will go wrong."
Garil Mavos, on Beren

"Finally, someone willing to socialize. Can't have myself doing all the work extracting the information, am I wrong? Something could come out, someone could get suspicious... let's stay within earshot of this one. If I'm going to, ah... overhear someone's conversation, it'll be with S'Kandar."
Garil Mavos, on S'Kandar

"He's... everything wrong with my people. An erect monument to the shallow waters of his perverse spirituality. Ugh."
Garil Mavos, on Eno

"A relatable fellow, to be quite certain. Black sheep like us -- or white sheep, in his case -- know what it is like to lose connections and find themselves alone. Doesn't mean I'm willing to share all of my secrets with him, but he has my sympathies, if not my pity. These things happen. Feeling sorry for one's self... where has that gotten anyone?"
Garil Mavos, on Ercanoriel


I haven't gotten around to reading Sigri's sheet yet, so pardon me.

WOOPS, forgot Nintendo DS

"Wow, I'm older than he is and he looks ready to die. Should've picked dunmer at character select, noob

Thank you everyone for the patience in the reviews.

As we begin introducing our characters - this round is quite pivotal in establishing the RP, so avoid double posting until a post from everyone has been made. That said, first posts should be made soonish, and just communicate with what is going on - if you're busy, stuck, need inspiration etc.

To anyone just dropping in and lurking this thread, we are now closed for further applications at this point. If you are interested in the roleplay, there will be openings for more players and characters as we enter new episodes. Inevitably, current players may drop out etc so just keep checking or let me know you're interested and I can reach out to you if we have an opening.

Alright, I have tried to improve on the original sheet :)

Here's a rough list of changes in the hope that it might save a bit of re-reading time:
  • Took what @Dervish has pointed out into consideration and added a relocation to Skyrim as Ercanoriel was arrested.
  • Added explanation to the Two-Handed expert skill and some minor explanations to the adept skills.
  • Demoted restoration from adept to novice and promoted illusion from novice to adept in exchange.
  • Dropped speech as an adept skill and promoted Destruction from novice to adept in exchange.
  • Added blacksmithing as a novice skill.
  • Re-formulated Ercanoriel's regret so it isn't as extremely misleading anymore as it has been before about which of his parents it is referring to. I'd like to ask for re-evaluation :)
  • Fixed a bunch of typos and wording mistakes.

I've added a bit more padding to a few sections, specifically her appearance and the end of her history regarding her husband's death. I still intentionally tried to leave it vague -- the specifics are something I really want to reveal IC -- and I initially struggled to find a middle ground on how much to tell. I added details mostly about the aftermath of the situation, and hopefully it's slightly unclear on how things went down inside the house, but still more solid.

@LadyTabris & @Fetzen

Awesome reworks guys, they can be posted.

As mentioned in the Discord;

We'll finish this round of individual introductions - there will be time for individual collabs to be finished, then a GM post will signal an event and group collab! :)

Excellent posts so far, I hope you're all enjoying this just as much as I am!
