    Summary

    It is time to record the known history and adventures of the Khajiit known as The Last. Dragonborn. Not a stapping young Nord, not a magical Elf, not even a vicious orc.
    The chosen was a mere Khajiit,
    Someone who should not have been in Skyrim at all.
    But it appears Akatosh was just as willing to make a story as he was to give us our saviour

    A re-telling of my first fanfics on this site of Sayori (pronounced sigh-or-ri") the Khajiit
    Dovahkin. Having done first person stories, here is the full story of a reluctant Dragonborn.
    The story contains mod's that I used when playing the game that shaped/inspired this story.

    Summary

    Barely surviving the wrath of the Dark Misstress, Nevri has fled to Solstheim. Trying to cope with the aftermath of the nightmares that happened to her, she battles for her sanity and will to live, convinced that on Morrowind's soil, she is far away from all those who seek to take her life. But a new fight for survival begins for Nevri, driving her back to Skyrim. Guarding a new secret, she not only has to get to safety from the Dark Brotherhood, but to make matters worse, the Thalmor are also on her heels.

    When Morotar wakes up, he is disorientated. On a peak in the Velothi Mountains, surrounded by a cult, he regains consciousness - with no memory of how he got there. Only slowly do the memories of his past return. Welcomed with open arms at the Thalmor Embassy, he has to find out why he disappeared for months. There is only one clue - a black-haired Dunmer woman whose glowing ruby eyes haunt his dreams time and again. What does she have to do with his vanishing?

    Summary

    She came to Skyrim with twenty septims, a dagger, and far too much confidence.

    Aurelia Cassian is eighteen, stubborn, sarcastic, and completely unprepared for the blood-soaked chaos waiting beyond Cyrodiil’s border. She thought she’d find adventure. Instead, she finds wolves, frostbite, bandits, necromancers, unpaid labor, morally dubious bards, and a chair by the fire if she’s lucky. So...kind of the same!

    These are her journal entries—recorded every day without skipping a beat—as she tries to survive a land that seems determined to break her. What begins as the overconfident ramblings of a would-be adventurer slowly becomes something more: a record of scars, choices, victories, and the uncomfortable, unstoppable process of becoming someone powerful.

    She doesn’t know she’s the Dragonborn. She just wants to make it through the week without dying, crying, or punching a noble in the teeth.

    She might fail on all three.
    But at least she'll look damn good doing it.

    Summary

    Fourteen years after the fall of Corypheus, and the continents of Tamriel and Thedas discovering each other, the Dragonborn Inquisitor has gone on to become Empress of Tamriel, deal with her Dominion archrivals, and raise her also Dragonborn children, the oldest of which is now grown-up, a university graduate, powerful mage in her own right, possessed of a strong sense of social justice... and chafing at the restraints of being a princess. The solution is risky, but no Nord's ever feared risk and adventure. Secondment to the Shadow Dragons seems like just the thing... but other forces are moving in the background, forces set in motion millennia ago, and coming to the fore in the aftermath of a war that was a triumph for the Empire but devastating for the elves of the Aldmeri Dominion. As ancient elven powers rise from darkness, and Princess Maia starts uncovering secrets of her own family's past, bringing the light has never looked like a harder prospect, and it's all on three adolescent Dragonborns to save the world.

    Summary

    “So,” she began again, her voice shifting back to business, “Captain Val Serano, I presume?”

    He chuckled softly, though there was little humor in it. “The one and only,” he said, gesturing half-heartedly at himself. “Starting to think that’s not exactly a compliment these days.”

    Lyris huffed. “You’ve got some nerve.”

    -----

    The Legion taught Lyris Vatia survival; the sea taught Val Serano the same. Building something—plans, trust, a future—rattles them both. She knows orders and the next step; he knows exits and contingencies. Years of moving kept them alive. It isn’t enough anymore.

    Summary

    2 months after the death of The World Eater, Skyrim is once again facing a threat. This time from mortals with the souls of dragons, mortals as in plural, plural that don't belong here. Contained herein are The Thalmor's attempts to catalogue these individuals all in preparation for finally making their move. Can't have too many wildcards running around now can we?

    Summary

    When Emperors start having weird dreams about you being the Hero destined to “close shut the jaws of Oblivion”—whatever that means—and finding his long-lost bastard son, you know things are going downhill fast. Especially when you've been thrown into a world where literal gates of Hell start opening up.

    Between fighting evil cultists and demon lords, running errands for peasants, dodging the law like it’s Les Misérables, and relying on help from a cast of questionable lunatics—including an inconveniently handsome Nerevarine, the old Eternal Champion (fueled by revenge and sweetrolls), a tax-evading horse, and the only Bosmer in Tamriel who can’t shoot—Amaya is barely keeping up with her quest, let alone her sanity.

    All Amaya wants is to survive the next week without being disemboweled, dismembered, or getting stabbed in weird locations. Preferably in that order.

    Join our deeply inelegant protagonist on an awkward adventure as she tries to stay alive long enough to save the last heir to the Septim throne. Or at least kiss him. Eventually.

    And to think, all of this started because Sheogorath got bored.

    Updates every other Sunday!

    Summary

    It's 2560, and Humanity is lower than it has ever been before. After barely surviving 28 years of genocide from an ancient alien religious collective known as the Covenant, betrayal from their own artificial intelligences by a group named the Created, and the crushing loss of the UNSC's flagship Infinity at the hands of the formidable mercenary group called the Banished, humanity has become desperate for a way to fight back.

    Amidst this desperation, two SPARTAN Headhunter operatives are set on a mission that leads humanity to its strangest discovery yet:

    A world unbound by the conventional laws of physics, seemingly stuck in the Middle Ages, and threatened to end entirely with the emergence of powerful, ancient evils.

    Meanwhile, the fate of a young Khajiit heroine, Tamriel, and all of known existence is forever altered with the arrival of soldiers from beyond the Aurbis.

    Summary

    The history of Tamriel is a story of what has been lost to the ages. Gods, wars, betrayals and Empires have risen from the depths of time only to fall from their great heights in the never ending cycle of the Kalpa. This chronicle traces Tamriel's history from the forging of Mundus from the chaos of Aetherius, through almost seven thousand years of mortal ambition and divine will. Within these chapters lies forgotten wars of Men and Mer, bargains struck both in shadow and with shadowed powers, and moments where fate itself rested upon the edge of a sword.

    (This is a collection of my world building put into semi-narrative format and collated for anyone who might be remotely interested in my world-building, otherwise feel free to check out the rest of my 1 million+ word Elder Scrolls stories; Bloodtide Rising, Sos do Dov/Blood of Dragons, and The Dragonblood King)

    Summary

    A warrior who has only been rumoured about appears to aid the Companions and is swiftly recruited by Aela, but Farkas isn’t so sure about her.

    She’s strong and capable, with the ability of swordsmanship, sorcery and the voice of the skies. There’s no denying that. Even Vilkas approves of her addition to their mercenary group…

    But she’s a distraction and it seems only Farkas is affected.

    Summary

    "I never understood what made your lips on my neck an intimate affair
    Until your teeth grazed my pulse and I realized
    You could tear open my throat and make me bleed out in your arms
    But instead you choose to kiss"

     

    This work contains snippets of the lives (and deaths) of Belle Valtieri Lachance, her husband Lucien Lachance, and their son Lucas. It focuses mainly on the life of Belle through the later events of Elder Scrolls: Oblivion and later on in Elder Scrolls: Skyrim. There is and will be depictions of blood, stabbing, vampiric feeding and its effects, some cannibalism, and sexual content.

    Slight AU: Contracts take longer to become available to DB assassins.

    Summary

    A direct sequel to "The Amorous Argonian Adventurer". With Alduin defeated, Keeran-Rei must now navigate Skyrim as the threat of the World-Eater and his dragons are no more, though the Dragonborn's sense of adventure and legendary libido have not diminished in the slightest.

    I had originally not anticipated starting the sequel so soon, but I was too excited to get back in to things.

    Summary

    While running from the law in Cyrodiil, a petty crook crashes head-on into an unexpected destiny. This could be her chance at a new life, so long as her secretive nature, thirst for gold, and bleeding heart don't get her killed, first.
    -
    An in-character journal of my heavily-modded Skyrim playthrough, with lots of narrative extras like character connections, ships, backstories and such to make it more interesting and not just a glorified quest log. Obviously, since it's a play-through, it's very spoilery if you haven't played the game.
    It updates in roughly 5K-word chapters when I get enough time to play.
