#tes #skyrim #my art #oc #nelavis #barletta #😭😭😭😭💔💔💔💔💔 babies are so sweetum ugh my heart is crumbling rn #referenced some anne g*ddes stuff for dis #i call them snow elves instead of falmer like g*lebor would want me to #i never really get to talk about my elf anatomies at length cus i'm lazy but i sprinkled some info in the first pic #altmer society is EugenicsLand so you could only tell if your child has 'good' traits when they hit puberty #ex. height and shoulder width is something very important to them #if you don't have those traits ur pretty much a failure #other elves have it easier 🤓#idk i still might make some kinda infographic for the way i picture them but umm maybe not who knows #on snow elves and bosmer the fur is still 'confused' when they're in baby stage and is pretty much everywhere #it evens out w/ age and stays on the back; neck; sides of face the most and in places where human body hair wud be #idk ummm..and i think all elves grow their nails out unless they're very intertwined with humans in their life #ex. my snelf elisif; she has her nails trimmed to be regarded as more human i guess #nails are most important to altmer tho and might be a status symbol of some kind... they like using them in combat too #it's shameful for an altmer to not have long nails for any reason but there can be exceptions #like my el*nwen that can't physically grow nails out because of burn injury #so she has fake ones on her combat gloves #it's cute #elf nails aren't as frail as human nails and are more like an animals claws (corny) but bosmers' are the sturdiest #and their nails are curved in shape. for U know. Climbing and stuff #cause dunmer and altmer etc. have straight nails. they can hit the nail salon

About Princess Lynaira and her culture

(Trigger Warning the culture she is from is a medieval misogynistic culture and she suffers for it, she also has inappropriate feelings for her uncle, if these subjects make you uncomfortable please do not read)

Princess Llynaira is the youngest Daughter of king Marren

She is a young woman discontent with her role in life, she wants adventure but is to remain mostly in the palace due to the expectation of her as a Princess as well as an over protective Father who means well but doesn’t realise how it hurts her.

In accordance of the the traditions of the royal family Llynaira has spent many years learning the way of life, traditions and practices of the Priesteses of the church (i am still developing this religion), every generation of royal children have one of their daughters to take on the task (usually the youngest) it is done as a way to keep crown and church united and preserve the importance practices and culture; those talented enough are also able to inherit the abilities of the priestesses to heal the sick and wounded and perform as Oracle with their holy abilities.

Llynaira loves poetry and to paint and finds great inspiration in the ocean that her room over looks and spends much of her time painting in fascination both with the oceans themselves and the freedom she grants. The ocean inspires much in the culture of “The Province of the Great Sea King” and informs much in their way of life. Her uncle kendel often compares Llynaira to the Sea, beautiful and intense. Gentle yet tumultuous, and deeper and more unknowable than anyone could possible imagine.

She is a romantic and kind at heart but she is strong willed and knows what she wants. Which above all else is freedom to choose things in life for herself. In Llynairas culture her worth is the political alliance the crown can gain from her being married off and having children, and although she wishes to become a mother she does not wish for that to be her only value in life, she is more than her womb.

From a young age her uncle was the only one of the people in her life who understood her wishes and personality. Which caused her to care for him deeply very early on in her life especially after her mother’s death and her father growing distant but over protective. When Kendel was disgraced and exiled it broke her heart. She spent much of her time reading old poetry he had written that he had once read to her as she grew up, and drawing his face in a hope of remembering his kind inscrutable eyes and painting his ship among the many other subjects she liked to paint in her solitude. Llynaira had packed to go with him but he left without a goodbye,she believed this whole time that her Uncle hated her due to her inability to prevent his banishment even though she has tried to do so.

she is incredibly relieved at the news of his return joy has refilled in to her lonely heart. In his absence she had become emotionally Isolated even though she does spend time with her hand maidens and a few of the noble ladies in her peer group in the castle she has become friends with, they do not quite understand her and cannot be as open with her due to her being of a higher social class than them and all of her sisters had been married off in to other Elvhen provinces. She has no peers and is not meant to spend time with men now she is a young woman.

Although in the time he has been gone Kendel occupied much of her day dreams he was far from her only goal in life, she wishes to be an independent successful explorer in her own right and succeed in all of her pursuits whether that be in her writing and painting, or in her learning the ways of the priestesses. She will not be sold off to be a brood mare in a gilded cage.
