Hello hello, you can call me Lucifer or Nneoh (she/they, 26), and this is my elder scrolls sideblog! I mainly made this to have a place to reblog memes and yap about my ocs, so itās still under construction lol.
I like and follow from my main @lucifer-nanezgani
still pretty new to the elder scrolls franchise and have mainly played Skyrim (100+ hours and still havenāt finished the main quest lmao) but Iāve watched a bunch of lore videos and am starting a morrowind playthrough so Iām not a total noob lol
local Khajiit enjoyer, beast race supremacy /hj
i write and draw sometimes as a hobby, watch this space to see if i post any of it here
aussie audhd mess so my posts and reblogs tend to be super sporadic and come at random times
At the moment I only have one really developed oc: my Khajiit last dragonborn, Ayira. I have a couple of other underbaked Skyrim ocs on the backburner as well, such as my switch playthrough character (Qāariba) and my stoner Argonian who I made solely for that one Dagoth Ur follower mod (Eats-The-Bush). Once Iāve got proper tags set up for them Iāll link to those here.
Anyways thanks for listening to my rambling, feel free to shoot me an ask or DM if you wanna yap about elder scrolls ocs together!
I keep forgetting that the sole reason I fell in love with TES elves back in the day was because they have weird as fuck facial features and the games make little effort to make them look conventionally attractive. The only exception I can think of are the cinematic ESO trailers, which is a bit unfortunate. Like, why can't elves just be straight up ugly sometimes. I want the awful supremacist elves to look weird and creepy and nonhuman. I want the carnivorous forest elves to make me think of bugs. I want the elves that live in ash and ride insects all day to look like it too. They literally look alien and that's cool as fuck. Shoutout to everyone who draws elves that actually look strange and otherworldly. Nothing wrong with drawing your blorbos with more human features but whoever vibes with ugly elves is goated asf
From the dusty desert libraries of Elsweyr to the frigid mountains of Skyrim, this Khajiit has spent her whole life searching for every scrap of knowledge she can get her hands on- and running from those who threaten to tie her down. Destiny, however, is not so easy to run from...

Ayira is my canonical Last Dragonborn (and also the player character for my first and still incomplete playthrough). Inquisitive, snarky and horribly socially awkward, she prefers the company of books and like-minded scholars to most other people.
Originally travelling to Skyrim to study at the College of Winterhold (and escape the Thalmor), she got caught up in an ambush at the border and found herself on the Helgen executioner's block. Alduin's attack and the Greybeards acknowledging her as the Dohvakiin scared the living shit out of her, so she proceeded to promptly ignore them and continue onto Winterhold like nothing had happened.
After finishing her studies there, she set out to explore Skyrim- and promptly stumbled into the Redwater Den and contracted vampirism. Unable to cure herself in time, she struggled with her thirst as it ate away at her (loose) moral code and slowly pushed her down a darker path until she fell in with the Dark Brotherhood and Clan Volkihar. Will she ever accept her destiny as Dragonborn? Who knows?
Miscellaneous info:
J'zargo is the follower she's kept around for the longest and it shows- the two share a passion for magic and a looser moral code
Originally intended to spec as a full mage, but she got tired of all the hostile wildlife that would bum-rush her in close quarters and picked up a sword
Hoards an irresponsible amount of alchemy ingredients
Currently running around with a party consisting of J'zargo, Inigo, Ma'kara (from the khajiit will follow mod) and Serana
Fell in love with Ma'kara after she saved her life from an unexpected necromancer attack. Grew to respect her for sticking around despite Ayira's increasingly immoral behaviour, and Ma'kara was the one who snapped her out of it after she fell into a deep depression post-Dark Brotherhood questline
Backstory before arriving in Skyrim below cut:
Born in Dune, Ayira grew up surrounded by books. Her father was a scholar who loved to bring his work home with him, and as soon as she could walk she began following him to the library where he studied- both to learn and to escape the teasing of her three siblings. Many afternoons were spent lost among those towering shelves, poring over tomes and scrolls that spoke of far-off lands of magic and mystery. Her curiosity was further piqued when a Moon-Singer held a recital in Dune, telling stories of Elsweyr's ancient past that the books had long forgotten.
That idyllic life of discovery did not last, however. Her father became increasingly sceptical of the Thalmor's claims of ending the Void Nights and returning the moons. What started as quiet questioning grew into more open rebellion as he wrote and distributed counter-propaganda pamphlets throughout the neighbourhood. It wasn't long before the Thalmor Justiciars showed up at their doorstep and hauled him away for execution. Ayira watched, tears in her eyes, as her father was electrocuted to death in front of the entire neighbourhood. A futile attempt to intervene left the young khajiit with a nasty burn on her left shoulder- a permanent reminder of what she'd lost and what open rebellion against the Thalmor meant.
For the rest of her childhood, she kept her head down, immersing herself once again in the books that had always given her solace. Eventually she got a part-time job as a library assistant, saving her meager salary in hopes of one day leaving Dune and studying abroad. Most of the library patrons paid her no attention, with the exception of a wandering Alik'r wizard who would occasionally stop by the city and regale her with tales of his travels. It was this wizard who told her about the prestigious College of Winterhold in Skyrim. She hadn't considered Skyrim as an option before, but with the Thalmor tightening their hold on Tamriel's south and Cyrodiil still rebuilding after the Great War, she decided that the further away she could go, the better.
On a blistering summer's day, she climbed into a caravan's trailer along with her sister and one of her cousins, and the three of them began the long journey to Skyrim, unaware of the role they'd play once they reached that far northern province.
Iām quite pleased with this piece and wanted to share it.
These are mages from the College of Winterhold spending their free time together ā but Brelyna clearly isnāt amused by the relentless teasing from two overly playful jokers. āØ
The illustrations were created for about 4 days. Thanks for your attention!
"This one recommends a sidearm to accompany your axe, good friend. The roads of Skyrim are too dangerous to keep only one weapon on you."
"...Just the poison is fine."
Dragonborn wants to buy a potion from the nomadic merchants and Ri'saad just can't help trying to make a deal. Fun idea I thought to draw out
