Morrowind: Nerevar and Almalexia

Digital painting. Made in Krita. Feel free to repost, reupload etc.

P.S: Should've mustered the courage to paint her pregnant—just to upset your precious lore with momentous implications. But I guess seeing bearded Nerevar will be enough of a shock for many of you.

Please let the next iteration of M'aiq wear something besides a robe. Nothing has come close to challenging his original outfit in style.

'Tis unfortunate my recollection of Grazelands' gilt picturesqueness will hence be tinged by cognizance of darkest deeds and macabre possibilities, for who can say the extermination of Goris's army was complete and similar evil doesn't bide its time to re-emerge at, say, Nerano Tomb. Who can, with my knowledge, still impute the case of gigantism pervading certain animal population of central Grazelands to a mere freak of nature and not malignant magic of one they call "the Maggot King".

Imma just rank them here, favourite to least favourite:

Telvanni: They are rather a-moral, but not completely evil. Despite the use of slaves early on, they did welcome other races into their ranks. I enjoy magic, alchemy, and the overall need for intellectual prowess from a member being the surrounding focus.

Redoran: They value physical strength and prowess in combat, and most Redoran members are rather nice people, despite the usual dunmer sass xD

Dagoth: I mainly like the way they weave into the story so well. They were never a truly evil house but it was the rise of the Tribunal that poisoned them, I built an entire OC around this.

Dres: While their use of slavery leaves a bad taste in my mouth, I think the fact ancestral reverence and daedric prince worship is really cool story wise. One of my best online friends has two awesome dunmer OCs in house Dres.

Indoril: Considering I know nothing more than that they were loyal Tribunal and temple advocates, I don't mind them. I just wish I knew more.

Sadras: I really don't know much about them, mainly because there isn't much on them. But they are significantly better than house Hlaalu.

Hlaalu: I believe they're the most note-worthy when it comes to slavery, and since it's so common, I really have no love for Hlaalu. The Hlaalu also had tight relationships with crooked factions such as assassin and thief guilds, and in my eyes are the most immoral house in Morrowind.

This is just my humble opinion though lmao. I myself have four dunmer OCs right now, two are in house Telvanni (The sisters, Vyeshna and Lyrandra Telvanni), one is in house Dagoth (Drahireth Dagoth), and one more in house Redoran (Elivareth Sevrin).

So yeah I rambled, kthnxbyeeee <3

rule number one of making lore accurate TES OCs is to do whatever the fuck you want

It was I had some hours left before embarking, so having bade the captain of Elf-Skerring my greetings, I took the cobbled road into the city proper. The years I've been away, caught up with me in fit of stupefaction at the city's verdant transformation—for it now towered around Tel Naga like a bristling hedge. And though at a ground level the road still girdled the tower in a circle, it now did so under canopy of pods above—which made navigating it somewhat more difficult. How does one go about collecting taxes—I wondered—in this ever-growing maze? Unless, there is a way to arrest the growth? Block it off, perhaps, with moats of salinated water or kill the mushroom and resurrect it as undead. Would it vex them at Tel Naga much to let the people live rent-free, or should one ill-expect the wizards to develop a spell for detecting tax declarations? On this disturbing note I (ever on a hunt for new additions to my colour palette) ascended spiral staircase to the shop of Lady Anis Seloth to browse her (famously ample) stocks of alchemical ingredients. There's no shortage of rambunctious tall tales about artists extracting pigments from unorthodox, disgusting and dangerous sources. Such as: supposedly a local practice of using Bittergreen leaves to mix a paint of some otherworldly colour. Do not—repeat—do not try this, lest you plan on becoming not-of-this-world yourself, for this plant is deadly poisonous. One such other tale—at first glance no more credible—I, as an artist, can aver: the colour "mummy brown" (or Caput Mortuum, as it's called in Cyrodiil) is indeed produced from ground-up draugr and is illicitly imported from Skyrim. You can imagine therefore how pernicious the quarantine has been to ohre-centric dunmer arts.

p.s: "Detect tax" spell is no more absurd then "detect key" spell for what is "a key" spell-wise?
