oc: Sulana, Nord, TESV Skyrim
Tumblr media Tumblr media
A Nord bounty hunter from Kynesgrove. After losing one of her arms, Dwemer Scholar Winlyn fashioned her a new arm out of Dwemer metal. In return, Sulana became the researcher's body guard.
She was soon captured by the Thalmor and separated from Winlyn due to her support for Talos. Imprisoned and half-dead, she was mieaculously able to awaken the power of The Voice. She fought her way to freedom with the other prisoners.
Another one! This is my Nord Skyrim oc, or otherwise the Dragonborn of my oc canon, Sulana! (some Winlyn lore in here as well cuz the two of them are like one unit lol)
(For context, I sort of divided several aspects/guilds/questlines of the game to be done by different ocs so that I'm not dealing with 5 different Dragonborns.)
Game-wise, I use her when I wanna adventure with Lucien Flavius or Remiel - also used her for a stormcloak run, but that's not entirely her stance on the conflict.
This post goes together with my art blog post here. I can't really get the most accurate vision of her in the game because I can't find a good dwemer prosthetic arm mod or solid curly hair mods or bandages mods or-
er well anyway, the point is that I tried lol
Lore:
A Nord orphan-made-warrior raised in Kynesgrove. She made a name for herself as a bounty hunter across Eastmarch and The Pale. During one of her adventures, she ran into Winlyn - literally. Well, more like Winlyn tackled her while running away from something she encountered in some Dwemer ruin.
Young and cocky, Sulana offered to clear the ruin for her, unaware of the dangers that are dwarven automatons. Winlyn's previous guide perished in that same ruin, but her warnings fell on deaf ears as Sulana expertly cleaved through the lesser constructs. That is, until a colossal Dwarven Centurion attacked them. Narrowly surviving with a missing arm, suddenly she felt herself be overcome with a mysterious strength, and was able to take the Centurion out.
Healing from her injuries took a significant amount of time, Winlyn used her knowledge of Dwarven technology to salvage and fashion a prosthetic arm for Sulana. Thankful for her help, Sulana would agree to continue protecting Winlyn (but she actually also developed an interest in all the cool thing Win would tell her about historical artifacts :D)
Feats of the duo reached the ears of the Thalmor, Sulana who had implications with Talos and they suspected to be a threat, and Winlyn who was digging up secrets mere men should not know. While they explored another ruin, the Thalmor took advantage of the environment to separate them, trapping Winlyn under a cave-in and leaving Sulana vulnerable to an ambush.
Prisoner to the Thalmor, she endured torturous days at their mercy, but she would not give up. When she was sure they would end her for good, she felt that similar power surge through her and she let out her first shout, weakening her captors. Uniting forces with the other prisoners, she would eventually overpower the Thalmor and escape. They become her new traveling companions for the time being.
She has no idea whether or not Winlyn still lives, but she dares not lose hope. She will find her, whether she must unearth every dwarven ruin possible.
