// Info Dump on Reei //
@openlywitchy suggested I should do an info dump about my ldb Reei and I realise I totally need to do this since I RARELY ever speak of her so!!
Everything on wards might be a bit iffy cause I’m not fully settled on her and I have bits n pieces I wanna change BUT for now :^)))
If you really need to know, I’ve written more detailed things of her but for the sake of everyone’s mind, I’m gonna keep it considerably shorter here. They’re all done in bullet points and are titled for certain parts of Reei’s life!!
Backstory Leading to the Events of TES V: Skyrim
> Raestira (her real name!) is an Imperial born in Cheydinhal, Cyrodiil on the 21st day of First Seed, 4E 173
> She was highly interested in the history of Septims reign on Tamriel and spent most of her time reading. Raestira’s interest was mostly pinned on the story of Uriel Septim VII, Martin Septim, and the Hero of Kvatch. She nicknames herself “Reei” as a reference to HoK Raye. (From this point on, I’m gonna refer to her as Reei)
> At the age of 15, Reei’s father, an member of the Imperial Guard, was killed during a fight in the Imperial City. Her devastated mother, now turned to skooma as a coping mechanism
> Distraught by the turn of her mother, Reei set out on her own and forcibly taught herself to care for herself. She took this opportunity to explore Cyrodiil and the important landmarks of the HoK (Bruma, Kvatch... she even tried to track down Cloud Ruler)
> Reei, now 28 and feeling extremely confident about her own ability to protect herself, sets out to Skyrim to explore Tamriel
> The civil war got worse and she knew she needed to escape Skyrim. Reei headed straight to the border where she was caught. She begged to be released as she was an Imperial only wishing to be back home in Cyrodiil
The Adventures of Reei (These are in no specific order bc I’m lazy)
> After learning she was the Dragonborn, she kept making references to Martin Septim and hoped “she wouldn’t have to channel Akatosh and turn into a giant statue in the middle of Skyrim,”
> She was always fascinated by dragons, she would attempt to watch them from afar and with great interest. She also hated having to slay so many
> She begged to Paarathurnax to learn how to swear in Dovahzul, but was refused every time
> When she met Delphine, she was highly excited to meet a member of the Blades and begged to know more about Cloud Ruler, but Delphine couldn’t give her the information Reei wanted
> The moment Delphine ordered Reei to kill Paarathurnax, she was mad as hell about it and refused her order.
> When Reei met Odahviing, she was excited to finally be close enough to another dragon!! She!! Loves!!! Dragons!!!!!
> When Reei met Sheogorath, she was shocked to learn that she was speaking to Raye. They ended up talking about Raye’s time as the Hero of Kvatch and Cyrodiil at the time. Although, enjoyable, Reei wanted out of Pelagius’ mind and did whatever she needed to
The Tales of the Dark Brotherhood
> Having heard Aventus performing the Black Sacrament, knowing that the task was meant for the Dark Brotherhood (that she didn’t think were around in Skyrim), she reluctantly took it upon herself to complete the contract in honour to please the boy. When she met Grelod, she quickly despised her and found killing her was easy enough
> When Reei was inducted into the Dark Brotherhood, she met Eradras (yes, I mean Oblivion Eradras) in the Falkreath Sanctuary. She was amazed by his knowledge of the original Dark Brotherhood traditions and often came to talk to him about his life in Cyrodiil. She soon learnt that he was once friends with HoK Raye and ended up finding out more about her through him
> Reei loved the company of the Dark Brotherhood family. It made her feel right at home in Skyrim.
> Reei didn’t enjoy Cicero’s company and when given the task to eliminate Cicero, she would’ve done so had Lechance not stopped her. Lechance convinced Reei to trust Cicero and instead, let him go free
> Before going to assassinate the Gourmet, she went to get advice from Eradras. In turn, he told her she had gained his trust and gave him “a happy ending”. He passed on the ability to summon Lucien Lachance in his last moments. Reei, devastated by the death of Eradras, continued the contract in Eradras’ honour.
> When Reei successfully poisoned the “Emperor”, she and Lucien quickly realised they had been betrayed and quickly fled the area. On her travels back to Falkreath Sanctuary, she soon realised that it was Astrid who betrayed them.
> When she reached Falkreath Sanctuary, she was relieved to see Nazir and Babette still alive. When they found Astrid, however, she waited impatiently for a confession before killing her aggressively, even Lachance found it vicious.
Life After Alduin
> Reei ended up getting married to Uthgerd the Unbroken, and they live in a small house in Whiterun. They also share the house with Lucien Lachance because Reei also enjoys his company.
> They recently adopted two children!! Wowee!! Reei is also building a home out in Morthal where they plan to move when the construction is complete
> Lechance complains theres “not enough killing” going on, so Reei often obtains contracts from the Night Mother and takes Lachance on these trips
> I haven’t done any of Dragonborn DLC yet :’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’) but it’ll get added here at a later point!
