We just got our first review and we are so happy that you guy apparently like our CD that much! "Shredding guitars, otherworldly keyboard arrangements, and a battery of drums leave you wondering how your life would be complete without this disc." 9/10 - would bang

Alexandra, the voice of Meridia

All of you have been waiting for this moment!

Brace yourselves, for you will meet Alexandra, our lovely frontlady! Also, next week we will upload one song from our upcoming Demo-EP "Hircine's Call", so all you people out there can listen to our vocalist's beautiful voice.

Alex is the frontlady of Daedric Tales. The woman from High Rock got her beautiful voice from daedric prince Meridia, known as the Lady of Infinite Energies. Alex' ancestors served Meridia and killed many undead, therefore the prince promised them a child in their bloodline who could banish the undead with her canto. In this era Alexandra was born and with her companions from Daedric Tales she will fight.

Age: 21 Favourite Bands: D, Versailles Philharmonic Quintet, Kamelot, Within Temptation What she likes: Playing oboe, travelling, martial arts, photography What she dislikes: Meat, running late

  The horses are saddled, the gear equipped: Next week you will hear our first song ever online!

Gonzalo, the Outcast

The finale in near!

This is Gonzalo, our keyboarder and master of orchestral arrangement. It is written in his eyes that he truly is a powerful and skilled musician!

Gonzalo, noble man and acknowledged master of marksmen. In his childhood the aristocratic society demanded from him to learn the art of marksmanship. Gonzalo was not interested in bows and arrows, instead he loved to play the music of the commoners - despite the lack of acceptance of the other nobles. One day, while he was on a hunt, practicing his skills with the bow, his house was attacked and ruined by competing counties of his rural native land. Gonzalo became an outcast and lived by hunting and playing his music in foreign lands. In Skyrim, far from his home, he met Daedric Tales who welcomed him with open arms.

Age: 22 Favourite Bands: Dream Theater, Epica, Nightwish, Kamelot, Metallica, The Agonist What he likes: Dedicate as much time as possible to music, improving skills everyday, spend time with friends and family and get to know cool people What he dislikes: Lies, drunk people (who can’t even handle a simple conversation)

Yra from Pelagiad

Are you ready for another band member? Today you will meet Yra, guitarist and a founder member of Daedric Tales.

Yra was born in Pelagiad, Morrowind. Even in his childhood he was interested in the wildlife of the Ascadia Isles and the flora of the Bittercoast. As he grew older he left his hometown and studied alchemy in the Ald'rhun mages guild. There he also picked up basic knowledge from the schools of destruction and conjuration. One day he started a quest with only one goal: studying all of the plants in Tamriel. On his journey he spent his spare time playing music and when he met Jakob Daedric Tales was born.

Age: 19 Favourite Bands: CocoRosie, Gorerotted, Septic Flesh, Impaled Also active in: Nuclear Monstrosity What he likes: Feasts, Games, Booze What he dislikes: Red taped fat cats and haughtiness

Daniel, the Necromancer

This week we will introduce our new guitarist Daniel! The newcomer formerly played in the viennese Glory Metal Band Dragony. Now we have the honor to share the same stage, side by side, battle for battle!

Daniel is a very interested and talented magician who found a liking in the schools of conjuration and destruction. He joined the mages academy of Winterhold in Skyrim and studied the arts for quite a time, but Daniel is as incautious as he is talented and so he was expelled. He travelled from ruin to fort and from fort to ruin of necessity, practicing the black arts and doing his dangerous and controversial research. Daniel met Matze, Alexandra, Jakob and Yra some day and thanks to his friendly nature they became friends very fast. His willpower makes him a magnificent magician as well as a great guitarist.

Age: 27 Favourite Bands: Avantasia, Edguy, Nightwish, Serenity, Blind Guardian, Angra Formerly active in: Dragony What he likes: Computer games, cars, movies, bugging Matze What he dislikes: dubbed movies/tv shows, electronic music

Our frontlady and vocalist Alexandra has quite a large collection of head gear. Obviously the rest of the band loves to wear them during rehearsals and stuff.
