Aleera Veruni, age unknown, originally hailed from Morrowind. Much of Aleera’s past remains secluded, unknown. She spent most of her life as a lowlife in Morrowind. Begging, pickpocketing, robbery, and theft were her trades of life back home. Aleera was an acclompished sneak thief and cut-purse, and knew her way around weapons, fancying a pair of sleek daggers, which slit more than a few throats. She was also a skilled archer, and was in prime physical shape as well.
In 201 4E, not long after Alduin the World Eater destroyed Helgen, Aleera found herself at the gates of Riften in Skyrim, and was soon after recruited by the Riften Thieves Guild. She performed beyond expected, never failing a job and earning the Guild a fair sum of coin. Aleera was with the guild for several months, until an internal struggle broke loose, and Aleera left Riften behind to start anew.
Aleera spent several weeks pulling jobs on her own. At one point, she found herself in Whiterun, where she met Jenassa, a headstrong and bloodthirsty fellow Dunmer. Aleera saw potential in Jenassa and recruited her as a partner. The two pulled numerous jobs together over the course of months. The robbery of the Markarth treasury, the grand string of larceny in Falkreath, and the heist of the Blue Palace in Solitude were all their work, and soon they had amassed a massive sum of loot in their hideaway.
When word got out that someone was looking for the Dark Brotherhood in Windhelm, Aleera went to investigate, having already arrived in the city with Jenassa. When met by a young boy seeking to have the abusive head of the orphanage in Riften murdered, Aleera initially laughed this off metaphorically. She took the job however, killing Grelod the Kind of Honorhall orphanage. Despite the shoddy payment by the boy, Aleera was satisfied by the killing.
She had always had a bloodlust deep within, like her counterpart Jenassa. She had killed several people specifically in her recent months of thievery in fact.
Soon after, the Dark Brotherhood came calling, and Aleera found herself offered a position within their family.
Aleera took the offer without a hesitation, parting ways with Jenassa and joining the murderous cult of Sithis.
(OOC: The events of the Dark Brotherhood questline, which I’d rather not type from beginning to end.)DARK BROTHERHOOD FOREVERAfter the death of Emperor Titus Mede the Second, Aleera took it upon herself to rebuild the Dark Brotherhood and reconstruct the Dark Brotherhood sanctuary in Dawnstar.
Not long after the sanctuaries’ refurbishing, Aleera came across her old partner, Jenassa, and invited her to join the Dark Brotherhood. Jenassa agreed without hesitation.
Aleera now resides in the Sanctuary predominantly, remaining vigil and ever-attentive to the voice of the Night Mother.
She guides the Brotherhood and voices the commands of Sithis and the Night Mother, while wielding the Blade of Woe as her symbol of authority and power. She has taken up the study of magic. At one point, not long after the assasination of Titus Mede II, it was revealed that Aleera was also a Vampire, a secret she had kept from even the Brotherhood until recent.
Despite this, she is still revered as The Listener and commands the respect of such a title.
