#oc: ma'isuri ardela

[bastianhallix]

OwO you have to tell me more about Ma'isuri

ah yes, ma'isuri is one of my other Bastard ocs

in-universe, m'niara calls her "mai" (pronounced "my") but i don't call her that to avoid mixing her up with maelienwe, who's called "mae"

i kept shipping her with methredhel on and off, but it ended up being one-sided on methredhel's part because of how wary ma'isuri is of romance (and because ma'isuri dies anyway)

i don't have a lot for her in terms of music, but i do associate her with this song (one last dance by silverstein). it used to represent her "relationship" with methredhel, but not anymore.

during the main quest, i like to think about ma'isuri teasing m'niara about her crush on martin. she's basically the Annoying Little Sister of the khajiiti ardelas

the divines do Not like her since she's unapologetically a kleptomaniac and loves being part of the thieves guild. i like to think that she inherited that from tsameiji.

speaking of tsameiji, they're pretty similar characters, but i think that the biggest difference between them is that tsameiji can brag about being a fighter and own up to her claims while ma'isuri is pretty much all talk (unless it's about thieving)

part of why she agreed to become the divine crusader was for the thrill of it, of course. but it was also because she knew that m'niara was Tired after the mess that was the end of oblivion's main quest.

ma'isuri and her brother j'zhari are the only ones who knew that m'niara's daughter/their niece ayrana was also martin's. well, at least until marvani found out some 200 years later.

[bastianhallix]

Ma'isuri: You should try going out with someone! See if the world of romance suits you or not.

M'niara: Okay.

M'niara: *dates Martin Septim, accidentally has his child months after the end of the Oblivion Crisis*

Ma'isuri: ....Well then. Go big or go home, I guess.

[bastianhallix]

oh yeah the khajiiti ardelas have a dunmeri last name because uhh

in-universe reason: m'niara and ma'isuri don't know how last names work since they're khajiit, so they just took venaryne's last name after she became their "stepsister" without realizing that the actual dunmeri ardelas (venaryne included) are redoran nobles

actual reason: i fucked up and accidentally gave m'niara "ardela" as a last name but it stuck

[bastianhallix]

Shit goes downhill for them at first, but it gets better: Tsameiji, Venaryne, Ariyura, Jackson, Maelienwe, Cinia(?)

Shit goes downhill for them at first and it gets worse: M'niara

Shit starts great for them at first, but it goes downhill: Ma'isuri, Lily

[bastianhallix]

m'niara's name is supposed to be kinda jokey bc it's pronounce meh-NYA-rah (key word: NYA) while ma'isuri's name is an altered spelling of "misery"

which is also kinda funny bc m'niara's the serious twin and ma'isuri is the carefree twin

edit: then again ma'isuri being "misery" could also make sense bc she causes m'niara a lot of grief, like when she accidentally gets her arrested because they both look alike and when she actually dies, causing m'niara's descent into madness

Ma'isuri Ardela

Race: Ohmes-Raht Khajiit

Gender: Female (she/her)

Sexuality: Bisexual

Birthday: Evening Star 30, 3E 408

Age during Oblivion: 24-29

Born in Black Heights, Elsweyr

Distant relative of Tsameiji (the Vestige) and Ariyura (the Last Dragonborn), younger and identical twin sister of M'niara (the Hero of Kvatch), younger sister of J'zhari, younger stepsister of Venaryne (the Nerevarine)

Unlike her sister, she doesn't know how to fight with physical weapons. Instead, she heavily relies on illusion magic, and everything she knows comes from her mother.

She's a kleptomaniac and a bit on the impulsive side.

She tends to favor her own pleasure over most things, which usually results in her being inconsiderate of others.

6 months prior to the beginning of Oblivion, she and her siblings (as well as her brother's wife) migrated fron Elsweyr to Cyrodiil. Unlike her merchant brother and her alchemist/huntress sister, Ma'isuri liked earning money the (stereotypical) Khajiit way: stealing and fencing.

She uses illusion magic to give herself brown hair and green eyes as a way of distinguishing herself from M'niara.

When her illusion magic wore off in the middle of a burglary, she recklessly fled the scene. While Ma'isuri was able to escape without a scratch, M'niara ended up being blamed and imprisoned for the crime instead, which is what eventually led M'niara into becoming the Hero of Kvatch.

As M'niara did Oblivion's main quest, Ma'isuri made her way up the Thieves Guild. Eventually, she becomes the Gray Fox.

At first, she had a rivalry with Methredhel (a fellow Thieves Guild member), but they eventually became friends.

Shortly before KotN, Ma'isuri passes on her title as the Gray Fox to Methredhel. (Note: KotN and Shivering Isles take place 5 years after the end of the main quest in this story).

Ma'isuri ends up being the Divine Crusader, but instead of actually using the relics, she still uses her illusion magic to "fight." M'niara also joins the Knights of the Nine, but only to help her sister.

Ma'isuri's dependency on illusion comes back to bite her when she actually fights Umaril the Unfeathered, where her magic stops working in the spiritual plane. While she does manage to defeat him, he also fatally wounds her spirit, resulting in her death.

as much as i want ma'isuri to joke about how m'niara SOMEHOW managed to nab martin septim of all people, he literally dies the day after that happens so :/
