#oc konahrik

[the-elder-polls]

Response to the formal invitation :'3 *throws my stupid TES children at you*

(P.S. his story is everchanging as I figure out what the heck is happening in TES lore, but all of the core elements will likely stay the same) SO, his name is Djai. Djai the Curious, to be exact. Djai is a khajiit, more specifically Cathay. I'd like to split the information of him in two parts because his story is very much "before all of that shit happened" and "after all of that shit happened". His story is also very much based on the saying "curiousity killed the cat, but satisfaction brought it back". He lived in Elsweyr for his first years of life, before his parents sold him along with a familial artifact for many reasons. Luckily, through black market slave trading he actually was "bought" by some rich people, but luckily they had some common sense(Crazy for people in TES, I know) , and they raised him pretty much like their own child. They brought him to skyrim, where he would grow up. When he was a young adult, he "moved out", so to say. He actually just said "fuck all of this shit" and went adventuring. He traveled for a long time, met some people, made some important connections - which led to him joining the collegue of winterhold under a fake/pen name, and eventually becoming the archmage, before he resigned because he wanted to adventure more. Later, he met an argonian woman Wonders-About-Stars, who had grown up in morrowind [Most likely in solstheim.] and only recently arrived in skyrim. They became rivals for a long time, but eventually they became friends and got married. Bought a house in riften and,, happy ending for them both, right?

. . . But something wasn't quite right. Djai wasn't satisfied with this, like, at all. Sure, for some people maybe his life would be perfect but he - he craved new adventures. To do something, rather than settle down and live comfortably. And so, instead of doing that, he started going out almost every day to a cave, or a place he deemed interesting, and also started a collection. . . He also became a lot more paranoid than before, almost always feeling that he was being watched. First it was just random artifacts. Anything that was sort of unique, or appeared unique enough to him was added to this collection. But it soon appeared that this would be quite a big collection if he continued that. So he moved on to rarer artifacts: he only considered items that were very rare, or even legendary worthy of adding to it. Until one day, he came across an artifact that would change his life. Forever. A certain book. . .

From his wife's POV, Wonders-About-Stars woke up one day, just to find her husband gone. Didn't think much of it; He's gone all the time, not a big deal probably forgot to tell he was going on one of his adventures again. But the circumstances of his disappearance was getting stranger and stranger the more she discovered. And the more time had passed. One day of him being gone turned into days, then weeks, and when it was a couple of months - she's had enough, and she left their house. No, she wasn't coming back without him. Or, at very worst, without knowing what happened to him.

Meanwhile, Djai's out there living his best life. He got a patron in the face of Hermaeus Mora. Pros; Acess to funky library dimension, gets to satisfy his curiosity and do a bunch of chores for Mora that are centered around knowledge and books. Oh, also, he now has tentacles, so that's a plus. Cons; he now has quite a monstrous appearance. Being that long in apochrypha + under Hermy's influence doesn't do any good for your sanity or appearance. Another con is that he now has Mora in his head permanently and that's annoying hearing that guy go "ERM, actually" every time you think about something the wrong way. Also some side effects from his time in apochrypha for him are really similiar [I based them on it soo] to the symptoms of rabies in cats. He's also friends with my Dragonborn, Isabella/Abdulamassu [She's a dunmer who lived in morrowind until going to skyrim. No, she didn't live in solstheim. Yes, she did go to skyrim because life was absolutely shit] and her "brother" [Not by blood. Or, to be fair, very very distant relatives by blood, but it's complicated to explain. They've just decided that they're so close that they're going to be brother and sister] Ziikreh, my dragon priest OC who's pretty much a TES version of a boomer complaining about "back in MY DAY!!" because he was dead for, like, a LOT of time and got fully resurrected when the dragons got resurrected [Again, it's complicated, but his soul is connected to the soul of a dragon so when the dragon "woke up" he also did]

They are all my Skyrim OCs!! I have a bit more, but it's already getting long, so I'll wrap it up here.

I also have OCs for Oblivion and Morrowind, but since i'm in the process of playing both games rn I don't know the lore fully, so they're underdeveloped at the current moment!

Just going to spoil it by sayin my Morrowind OC, Ma'eric, is based on my friend's cat. That all started as a stupid joke about how her cat is very similiar to a khajiit, and now I made it real lmao. Ma'eric is a necromancer who isn't sure who he is quite yet, he can't help but feels like someone trapped in the wrong body. Always having to pretend that the body fits him by acting like a different person, when in actuality, it does not. Hm, I wonder what that could be foreshadowing. . .

OH THAT'S ALL SO COOL. hermy mory hitchhiking a ride in my head would also drive me a bit cuckoo bonkers. also the dragon priest's soul being tied to their dragon is SO COOL i love it

fact for a fact: my oc version of konahrik was pledged to vulthuryol, the dragon you find in blackreach

[gortrash]

Devolved into making low quality shitposts and I have no regrets

[theribbajack]

"You were born a slave," said Konahrik. "Do you not wish for freedom?" The sightless eyes of the Falmer gazed straight ahead. "My people learned long ago," said she, "that to wish for the impossible would be too much to bear."

Tried a bit of a fancier style for an upcoming scene from my fic Death and the Maiden.

This is an art piece I am very, very excited to show off! Meet my Konahrik-somewhat-reincarnation, Atillas!

Atillas has a bit of a strange story, but I'm quite satisfied with it. For reference, This is an older drawing of mine that depicts my original Konahrik design.

The original Konahrik was given an Elder Scroll by Alduin— a gift that they didn't quite understand until the Dragon War broke out. When Alduin was banished to the future by the Tongues, Konahrik used their Elder Scroll in an attempt to follow him through time.

Unfortunately it didn't work as intended. They ‘spawned in’ 30 years before the events of Skyrim (amd the return of Alduin) and the traveling through time itself had a... small side effect on their body. Side effect being that they were reverted into a 5-year-old and their memories were completely wiped. Suddenly, the great Konahrik was a small child with nothing to their name but a golden mask.

They grew up in Skyrim in Markarth and Whiterun raised by the priests of Kyne and Dibella available, apprenticing just about everywhere they could be an apprentice at. They struggled to learn modern languages but it was clear to the priests that they were very intelligent, and so they taught him as much as they could. They were named Atillas, and when they were 16 they began staying strictly in Whiterun. When they were 35,.. Alduin returned.

╬╬═════════════╬╬

Atillas is meant to be a companion-type of character, but they are capable of being a main character. They aren't the Last Dragonborn, but they do travel with Earendel, one of my LDBs.

The picture below is their handwriting. It's not the most neat, but I quite like it.

Close-ups and full page spread under the cut!

[trickstarbrave]

heyyyy im making a pinned post as that is a feature and seems good to keep info all in one place esp for ppl on mobile

❤️im brave!! or rua works if u want to but brave is by far the most popular name i go by. he/him pronouns

❤️art commissions/art trades are NOT on the table rn sadly. i used to offer commissions and did art trades with friends but for the most part im really busy with work/health conditions. if i have a bit of free time i may change this or make a few exceptions on a case by case basis depending on my schedule. for the most part tho i just want my art to be a stress relief activity

❤️art requests i do take from time to time now, but there is no guaranty i will take it. please do not spam requests hoping i’ll do it and please do not get mad if i don’t do it. they’re requests for a reason. if i am particularly inspired i’ll be happy to get around to it if life lets me

❤️technically multifandom blog i would say, mostly i have been focused on the elder scrolls series lately. you will probably see me rb stuff from like, a bunch of series. if this changes i’ll prob edit this post LMAO (i do not control the special interest)

❤️not just an art blog but also personal. my art can be found in my #my art tag. wips can sometimes be found scattered on my twitter if they arent on here. and writing that i publish can be found on my ao3 (though i have like a million wips that dont get published and be warned much of my ao3 is rated E and not for everyone)

❤️ been doing a lot of oc posting so i can do a run down of them currently for anyone that wants to follow along/know the lore:

/// OCS ///

(under cut)

🌟 Eyja: skyrim oc, nord dragonborn, she/her. past life incarnation was konahrik, alduin’s head priest, murdered by miraak. uses a bow and magic primarily. story can be found here

🌟 Senna: skyrim oc, nord dragonborn, she/her. proud two handed weapon user and leader of the companions. fought and lost to the world eater who took her back to his den and make her his partner. proof prophecy can be a complicated thing. story can be found here.

🌟 Baldur: skyrim oc, nord dragonborn, he/him. grew up on the streets stealing to survive, and certified trans of gender. fought and lost to the world eater who decided to force baldur to be his champion. helps him take over skyrim. story not yet published but will prob contain a lot of mentions of transphobia as a cw :(

🌟 Ansa: skyrim oc, nord dragonborn, she/her. orphaned at a young age, and just a weird, feral child. learned to steal, and ended up joining the thieves guild. killed mercer and turned the guild over to karliah and is helping rebuild it when she finds a weird rock that turns out to be a dragon egg. story not yet published

🌟 Ahkrinaak: general elder scrolls oc, he/him/any pronouns. he is based off me as a sort of self insert/persona character purely for comedy, not a serious au. dragon/god who was corrupted in the war with lorkhan/shor and became more so an agent of lorkhan. he spends most of his time pretending to be a mortal and causing problems. he’s just sillay. looks like a falmer/snow elf and nord hybrid making pretty much everyone just in general uncomfortable. dragons dont have gender he just likes tits. divorced with alduin

🌟 Lyre: not a skyrim oc (yet) but my beloved dnd character i have made a million aus for, including one that has turned into a full on novel lmao. will update everyone when i start uploading the novel (its not gonna be too serious just a fun lil webnovel that is pg rate) and you can see me post illustrations for. depending on the AU uses either he/him or she/her. i just think theyre neat

🌟 Anthial: nerevarine bosmer, tired, angry, nb spellsword. he/them pronouns. just wants to cover their entire body until you cant tell what gender they are. vivec never got them the drink he owed them. was convinced as nerevar that voryn never liked them back all that much. had an open marriage with almalexia. this incarnation was emotionless and lacked a moral compass due to the betrayal in their past life.

🌟 Steren: nerevarine, technically. not actually the reincarnation of nerevar, but the reincarnation of nerevar’s son. nerevar never reincarnated bc he was too busy haunting his descendants, too upset to move on. steren has a couple of aus but mostly its him with vivienne the dragonborn who belongs to @mulberrycafe. calls voryn “ata” and nerevar “dad” because he technically grew up in cyrodiil but remembers his first lifetime in bits and pieces where voryn raised him for the first few years.

feel free to send asks abt my ocs i love answering them

hello! I give you 💌 and 🔥 for Jia and Miraak! 💖

💖ask game💖

💌 : How would they plan a romantic evening for a significant other?

Jia: Living in Heljarchen Hall, there's plenty of space for Jia to plan a romantic idyllic evening outdoors—she and Miraak are both very attuned to nature, after all. I imagine her baking her favorite snowberry or juniper berry tarts, lavender dumplings, or crunchy bread warm from the oven with some fresh cheese, along with apple juice and later on, ale or wine to drink, she packs them all together inside her basket and plans their picnic! She will spread her blanket on the tundra (in a spot where they can marvel at the Throat of the World) and will demand Miraak to take off his shoes, just as she will, and sit by her side on the blanket, together enjoying their meals and their drinks, talking, and joking with each other... 🥰

Miraak: In continuance to Jia's romantic evening, Miraak will patiently wait for the sun to fall, so he will be able to take her to a spot where the cypresses are so stout and high that they hide the light of the moons and is completely dark. Then, he will ask her to lie on the earth, and they'll look up at the night sky together. The beautiful sparkling stars, Kyne's Lights, the constellations under which they were born—Jia's the Lord, Miraak's the Ritual—and who knows, amidst the various constellations they might be able to discern their own as well, their crescent moon... 🥰

I can see this romantic evening ending up being quite intimate...👀

🔥 : What’s a surefire way to make your OC get flustered?

Jia: She gets flustered at the slightest compliment she possibly receives (and receives more than she can handle from her Miraak). It doesn't matter whether it's for something in her looks or something she has a skill in doing, such as alchemy or cooking. She receives flattery about anything, and has this exact pattern of behaving: her leg will start jiggling, or she'll start tapping her foot, and there'll be a very noticeable flush, creeping from her chest until her face, and ears, and she becomes as red as her hair, the poor thing… 🥺

Miraak: Miraak is as bad as Jia in being flustered. He is very proud and a bit insecure/afraid to let this be seen, maybe because during his days as a Dragon Priest his face was Konahrik, an expressionless mask, so every emotion was being suppressed, even forbidden to show. But now that he doesn't wear any kind of mask on his face, they all get to see how expressive he truly is, as every single word of kindness, intimacy, and compliment can make him flustered/awkward/grateful, a mix of emotions, really. Besides, the times he's experienced kind words in his life can be limitedly counted, so he receives a compliment/a nice gesture/an intimate touch from his counterpart? His eye start twitching, and his moon-pale cheeks are magically sun-warmed! 🥺

A remake of my drawing of how i see Konahrik from Skyrim. ( the old drawing is at the bottom of the profile. ) Ps: I had drawn it last year in my holidays in the mountains, and this year i finished it in the current holidays all’ausilio in the mountains. Yes, i was inspired by David Bowie in physiognomy.

[the-elder-polls]

Skoll, my Dragonborn, ended up in the prisoner transport at the start of the game because he was in the process of moving back home to Skyrim from Cyrodiil. Skoll was a history professor in the Imperial City. He was transporting the last of his giant collection of books across the border when he got caught up in the Imperial ambush.

thats a violation of the tamriel convention. source: just trust me bro. i would be so mad. did he get his books back. please tell me he got his books back

fact for a fact: kona learned to read from vahlok after he "adopted" them. that's fine and dandy except vahlok started them off by making them read treaties and laws and stuff along those lines. because he's vahlok and he doesn't know how to be normal

[gortrash]

They’re making animal crossing talking sounds

Dinok ahrk Vahdin - 'Death and the Maiden'

Posted this already in answer to an ask but I like how it turned out so I decided to make a standalone post for it :) The sequel to this picture featuring Konahrik and the Falmer in an alternate ending for my fic Death and the Maiden.

Progress GIF below the cut!

[jiubilant]

konahrik, warmongering high priestess of the dragon viinturuth, and a lesser sonaak whose name was either purged from history or never recorded

in the early fourth era, the antiquarian who came into possession of this forgotten sonaak's mask met his end in the ruins of morokei's once-mighty city; about two centuries later, the relic was rediscovered there by the man who would become the ninety-third archmage of winterhold. konahrik's mask was later found in an atemporal pocket nearby, delighting and baffling historians. the nature of the relationship between konahrik and the forgotten sonaak—whose mask, curiously enchanted, allows its wearer to enter the chamber where konahrik's mask is enshrined—remains a matter of speculation

gefjon (konahrik) is @zurin's character <3

[salemelas]

I'm gonna start posting some TES fanfic, which I'll probably wind up sharing here, too. :>
