14. Your OC talking about your favorite quest City Elf Origin
“Honestly, the worst part of the Fifth Blight for me was when I left the alienage. It was so hard leaving everyone behind.” She mutters and crosses her legs.
“Father had arranged a marriage with some lad from one of the other alienages. Starkhaven’s? I can’t remember. I can’t even remember his name.” Taking in a deep breath, she swallows hard as she recalls the events of that day. “I, of course, wanted nothing to do with the marriage. The lad was fine and all, I simply didn’t want to wed a man I had just met.”
“Shianni had been so excited about the wedding, so giddy about getting me in a white gown and seeing me wed off to some handsome man. Soris and I had come to meet with my father about the wedding when Duncan arrived at the alienage with Deryth and Connor. Said they were looking for recruits for the Wardens. Honestly, I wanted to go with them then and there, if it meant getting out of this arranged marriage.
“Not long after, some shemlen nobleman’s son and his friends barged into the alienage, drunk of their arses and cat calling the elven women. Shianni whacked one of them over the head with a bottle, and they in turn nabbed several of us, myself included. They knocked me out cold, seeing I was a warrior and could easily fight back.” She grumbled something under her breath. “Filthy shemlen scum.”
“When I came to, we were locked up in the shemlen’s home. They killed one of the girls who tried to run. Dragged Shianni back into a room by her hair, saying they’d get to us eventually. I grabbed a sword off of one of the guards and fought my way through. I arrived just in time to stop them from raping Shianni.”
16. A conversation between your OC and their best friend
“I swear, if you two don’t start quieting down, I’ll cut you.”
“Deryth, I’ve no clue what you’re talking about.”
“You and Alistair have been going at it like rabbits ever since we got to Weisshaupt. Do me a personal favor and pipe down before it wakes up the baby.”
“You can hear us?! Oh Maker, I’m so sorry.”
“Listen, I get it, you two want a kid. But you know there’s plenty of orphaned kids from the Blight. Why don’t you just look there instead of waking me up every night?”
“We-we don’t do that every night-”
“Yes, you do.”
“Deryth, I do not care for you.”
17. A description of your OC’s family by a future historian (I just kinda wrote her general description)
Tabris was born and raised in Denerim’s alienage as the only child of Cyrion and Adaida Tabris. She was a very social child, a trait which followed her well into adulthood. Despite what many common folk believe, she joined the Wardens to escape legalities after killing the human man who attempted to rape her close friend. She was present at the Ostagar massacre, witnessing the deaths of hundreds of Grey Wardens and members of King Cailan’s army.
She, along with Deryth Mahariel, a Dalish elf, and Connor Hawke, an Antivan mage, embarked on the year long journey to prevent the Fifth Blight from ravaging Ferelden’s countryside. Over the course of the year, she became romantically involved with Alistair Theirin, half brother of King Cailan and one of the only other surviving Wardens. The two wed three years after the Blight, and adopted several Elven children after the disbandment of the Inquisition.
Her involvement in the Fifth Blight and the Inquisition have helped cement her place in history, as well as bring to light the importance of Elves in Thedosian history.
transhancock replied to your post “attempting to find elder scrolls ocs to reblog to my new blog is...”
I can try to take screens of mine tomorrow. Also notdeacon has a lot of skyrim ocs if you want to check her blog out
@notdeacon is one of my best friends so I’m well acquainted with all of her OC children :) I already have an image of her Gael in the queue. Your OCs will be greatly appreciated on the blog, too!
I think the last anon was right about the dates, maybe either the last two weeks of June/early July sounds good. I have some vague prompts: challenge, memory, crystal, sensation, carnal, ignite, harmony. (this would be my first Amorra week, so sorry if those have ever been used in the past or if they're boring.)
Thanks! Your suggestions have been added to the list :)
And no, those haven’t been used before, nor are they boring ^_^
