A Revelation...

Post » Thu Jan 02, 2014 1:00 pm

...that might break lore, but I don't really care.

So I made a revelation during my game time with Daeo. A little revelation about his backstory. For what I told on here, Daeo's Breton bloodline follows down a successed line of Dark Brotherhood followers. His mother line of ancestors were all worshipers of Sithis and the Night Mother and several other Deadric princes of cruelty. His mother was named Wendalin Fowl, for being a rather bitter old croon. While his father Rungar the Terrible had a bloodline of bloodlust.

His whole entire family line has been mostly built on bloodshed and cruelty.

Though I recently found out, when I made my third character Felicia, that she is actually in fact his older sister. Felicia was never strong with a blade nor was she very good at bladed combat. Instead she is a powerful Necromancer, who can call upon ancient remains like that of the Draugr to do her bidding. She sealed herself away in an ancient crypt, so she may worship Sithis and the Night Mother on her own.

Felicia made it in Skyrim long before Daeo did, but has since then seduced people with her poisonous and deadly beauty towards her Crypt to use them for.....the Black Sacrament.

That's right. Every random quest, after Daeo beat the whole DB questline, to go kill people were due to the will of Felicia.

I know it may be lore breaking, but honestly I looked it up and thought why not.

It's your game. You make it out however you want to. Personally, I only use lore as a starting point. Then i tweak it to my liking.

Tweak I did. Felicia, just sorta came to me. Let me tell you, most blood thirsty woman ever.

She focuses on Necromancy[I know it's conjuration, but she only uses the necromancy spells], Illusion, Speech, Enchantment, and Alchemy.

And she won't be joining the Brotherhood, but I'll be performing "Black Sacraments sort of" by killing people in specific areas with candles the whole nine yards. Skeletons and bones. She cares nothing for gold. She just gathers ingredients and lives alone.

She also has the Ritual stone to turn undead. [I really wish there was a spell to summon ancient skeletons from the ground. Like the first Vampire cave you go into in the Dawnguard quest]

Thanks. Felicia is bad ass. Her little brother, Daeo should be frightened. I seriously am. Twisting people's minds and then killing them for Sithis himself, to perform rites of the Black Sacrament just to kill whomever she wants. Yep, I'm going to just wonder around Skyrim gathering what I need. I will not go into a single hold of Skyrim this whole entire gameplay. I will not take what I don't need and I won't be selling anything. I'm going to play without a single piece of gold either.

edit-

For her spells I might need to....that would svck.

That's a good point. You should be able to create a story without thinking too much about the lore, or else you'll feel like you're walking through a minefield, worrying over every little detail that might break lore.

Felicia did run into a bit of a problem.

One, where can she live that has an enchantment and alchemy station, and have safe chest and containers for her ingredients and food?

And how does she get the spells she need without going into any of the major Holds?

I once roleplayed an Altmer author who murdered his wife and children in the name of Sithis and was persecuted by the Thalmor. He fled to Skyrim and was caught on the border. It was a DiD playthrough so I only got to level 10. x)

I might give that guy a full backstory one day.

I think what the OP meant is that his/her character Felicia=Night Mother in Skyrim.

OT: Interesting. I've done something similar with the "Friend" who sends you letters that lead you to word walls in my main characters' RP. The "friend" is a former LDB who left his own world using shadow magic after he screwed things up in Shor's realm and guides the current LDB to make sure he doesn't screw up and "deletes" the current world as well.

There's Anise's cabin near Riverwood.

A lot of conjuration spell books can be found adventuring but you might have to get to the College for some spells.

Yeah....Felicia killed her and took her ingredients and read her books.

Felicia, "Poor old woman, speaks her last breath alone and away from no one to help her. heheheehe"

But did you search the cellar? :smile:

"Helgi, dear, why do you hesitate? You can feel the power coursing through your blood! You have only to reach out and grasp it! Renounce that boy of yours and come, come live with me in the forest. My sister will be here soon. Together, we can form a proper coven, and your training will truly begin."

Oops - now what that implies...?

I don't scrutinize back-stories either, as long as it is something that seems logical in the universe.

TBH I don't see where the lore gets broken in that backstory. In fact it's very intriguing.
