Like father, like daughter.

so. I don't think I have talked about my Oblivion oc's all that much. and to be fair, I cannot seem to get my game working to properly start it. but at least I have ideas as well as designs for characters.

the girl is my Hero of Kvatch, Eleonora Cassia, the hybrid lovechild of Imperial merchant family heiress Hemera Cassia and the wandering Altmer scholar Vaicarion, the person on the left. though Eleonora mostly took after her mother, she still does have some traits that make Vaicarion recognise her as his own instantly. if only they had a chance to meet, maybe both their lives and perhaps the future of Tamriel would've turned out differently...

tagged on main (@faiyamon) by the wonderful @skyrim-forever ! this is going to be fun because lately I have been listening to quite a handful of songs that generate mental amv's of my oc's-

Enemy by Tommee Profitt, feat. Beacon Light and Sam Tinnesz. makes me think of an epic showdown/boss battle between my Last Dragonborn Taralka and her greatest foes - whether that is Alduin, the one she is fated to defeat, or an especially powerful and/or determined Thalmor as bent on killing her as much as she hates them back.

BRN by Aviva. another one for Taralka in general, how she will never back down, be brought down, or be used by anyone, in her early days as a Dragonborn where she has not yet gained much trust or renown. bonus points for the lyric "cause I'm a fighter, a tiger, see me walk through fire" which is especially fitting for a Khajiit warrior whose favourite shout is Fire Breath.

Careless Thu'um by Allinall - I swear I've put this one in every song-related tag game I've done! and yes I know it's a cover of Careless Whisper but the vibe is not the same... I am just that obsessed with it... why though, because it perfectly fits Aevalinwe the Thalmor agent, one of the other protagonists of my Skyrim story alongside Taralka, whose conflicted feelings and need to alleviate recent trauma related to it led her to do... something which she regrets deeply.

Beauty is not a need, she is an ecstasy (respirate) by Crywolf. kind of the "other side of the story" to the above, namely from Aeva's friend/crush Talerion, who she abandoned after being unable to take the consequences of what she did with/to him. he does not know why, and only longs for her to come back since he felt much more attached to her.

I Love You So by The Walters. my interpretation for this one isn't romantic: I think it fits well for Vaicarion, the father of my HOK Eleonora. he's always wanted to see her but never got to until it was too late, and not long after that he mantles Sheogorath; though he eventually loses most of his memories of mortal life, he can never quite let go of his daughter.

now that I am done, I shall tag the following: @cheeseandstrawberrytartlover, @titanwolfackerman, @maldov, @bunniletto, @illumiera, and @nightingalehours ! as with other tag games, no pressure to participate, it's all just for fun.
