"Siroria said that if she had to stay another minute in bed, she'd set it on fire. I take that as a good sign." (I really love the cloudrest trial but i wish there were quest and explorable city instead ;-;)

Much like I believe everyone should be allowed One Thing they would spend any amount of money on, within reason and without judgement, be it a hobby or service or some indulgence - everyone should be allowed One Niche ESO NPC they're allowed to be delusional about wanting to return and can make any amount of conspiracy theories explaining why.

But!!! It's gotta be so niche I've never heard another person argue their case. You gotta be the president, vp, treasurer, and secretary of their fanclub.

Anyway this is my way of saying I want Olorime and Darre back

[album-aurum]

- Will it blow up?

- Nope???

;)

[seimone-schell]

I finally saved all the Welkynars.

I was surprised to find Olorime in Shimmerene. I haven’t noticed the devs putting any sort of indicator outside of the trials themselves that a trial has been completed, and seeing the completion of a trial affecting the world (or at least seeing evidence of the events of said trial having happened outside of the instance) is refreshing.

Also, the thought of Olorime spooking some sense into some stubborn nobles with her gigantic fucking gryphon is hilarious. Zos pls. We need this. I’d like to attend that meeting.

Last night during cloudrest I noticed I was turning invisible when I switched to my bow bar. Lol. The game, the internet, or maybe just my computer, was on the drugs. @alackofghosts I feel your pain 😂

Biography

Cathanwe was born in Alinor to Korilina, and artist, and Mithron, a banker. Mithron was killed in a botched heist when Cathanwe was 7, and Korilina couldn't cope with his loss. She left Cathanwe in the care of her father, Soliron, and disappeared into the night. She never forgot her daughter, and often her only contact with civiization would be the letters she sent to Cathanwe and her father. Cathanwe never held it against her, though it took her a long time to be able to understand why her mother left.

Her grandfather Soliron was an excellent caretaker. He treated Cathanwe with kindness and encouraged her in all her fancies. He'd hoped that she would join the Sapiarchs as he was one himself, but he did not discourage her from her dreams of joining the Divine Prosecution. However, Soliron was an old man and his body would not be able to keep up with the strain of his work. Cathanwe was barely in her twenties when Soliron had to retire from his zoological position in Sil-Var-Woad. She was ready to abandon her Divine Prosecution ambitions to take on a different trade to provide for her grandfather, but another opportunity presented itself. The Welkynars were accepting a battery of recruits, and anyone who passed their tests to be accepted as an initate was given a hefty weekly allowance. That amount of money on a weekly basis combined with her grandfather's pension could allow him to live out his days comfortably. Cathanwe was eager to accept.

She wasn't an instant standout, but once she had gotten past a harsh learning curve, she came through the trials at the top of the recruits. She was accepted as an initiate and earned the allowances just as she had hoped. She split the money into three portions; one meant to pay her grandfather's bills, one to be sent to her mother, and the smallest portion for herself. Her mother didn't ask for the money and even rejected it at first, but Cathanwe persisted. She didn't care about the money; she just wanted to connect with her more. The money was merely an excuse to send her more letters.

Cathanwe fell in love with the lifestyle of the Welkynars. It was a hard life full of daily toils, but she believed in what the Gryphon Knights stood for and gave each task whether trivial or important her best effort. Her dedication caught the attention of the Welkynar Olorime, who took her under her wing. When she had gained enough experience as an initiate, Olorime chose her as her apprentice.

Things only got harder after Cathanwe became Olorime's apprentice. Olorime was fair, but she upheld the high expectations of the Welkynar and pushed Cathanwe to excell. On top of the grunt work all initiates had to do, she was now tasked with finding a gryphon egg and raising her future mount from birth. She camped outside of a gryphon's nest for an entire week in order to retrieve an egg, and after a month of incubation, she called the new hatchling Cyralaxon. Before and after his hatching, rituals were preformed to link Cyralaxon's soul to Cathanwe's own. This was the way of the Welkynars; it was how they were able to tame their mounts. The gryphons were not truly tamed at all. The noble beasts were merely bonded with and made to understand the will of their rider.

Things were going well at Cloudrest for some time. Cathanwe's training was progressing well, and she made a habit of impressing her superiors. However, a sea sload named Z'Maja enacted a vile plan to destroy the order and was near success. She purposefully allowed her own capture so she could strike the Welkynars down from within their own home. Three of the four riders, Siroria, Galanwe, and Relequen, all perished, but Olorime survived. Cathanwe was able to survive the ordeal as well, but the majority of her fellow recruits did not. Cathanwe was eager to fight back, but Cyralaxon was just a fledgling; the only way she could aid Olorime was from the ground. Despite not having a mount and being outnumbered, Cathanwe refused to give up. She enlisted the aid of a maormer fisherwoman and skilled mage, Syvenia, to assist her and Olorime in dispelling Z'Maja and her corruption. The three were able to end the sorceress save what was left of Cloudrest.

Regardless of their victory, the order was in shambles. Olorime was the only true Welkynar left and many of the most promising recruits had been slain in the battle. The remaining initiates were tasked with aiding Cloudrest's civillian populace while a few were sent to scour Summerset for more recruits. Cathanwe was one of the few asked to travel the isle, and she convinced Syvenia to come with her. The two went to Alinor to search for recruits as well as ask Proxy Queen Alwinarwe to send resources to Cloudrest so it could rebuild. There they encountered Daeris Urzara, an agent assisting the Psijic Order in combating the Sea Sload incursion and the hidden Daedric influences behind it. Cathanwe saw the venture as an opportunity to restore the damaged honor of the Welkynars, and with Olorime's permission, she and Syvenia joined the Psijic quest.

Skyrim Verse 

In light of the dragons' return, the Thalmor have enlisted the aid of the welkynar to find a way to combat the arising threat. Cathanwe accompanies her teacher Olorime to Skyrim, and the two investigate.

Oblivion Verse 

With chaos arising in Cyrodiil, the Welkynar feared a possible threat to Summerset if the problems of the mainland were not dealt with, so Olorime and Cathanwe were sent to prevent this. They had just arrived in Kvatch when the city was beset by Daedra. Witnessing the rise of the Hero of Kvatch, they offer them and the Blades their aid in ending the Oblivion Crisis.

Dragon Age Verse

Cathanwe is a Grey Warden and assistant to Olorime, the High Constable of the Wardens. Olorime does not believe that griffons are truly extinct and often leads fruitless expeditions to track down what's left of the species. Cathanwe is her main instrument in these quests, and when she is not helping Olorime with public relations, she can often be found searching Thedas for the lost creatures.
