So I've finally stopped procrastinating and decided to get this fucking thing started, I had to rewrite parts of it since I forgot what I originally intended to put in. Also due to how I've laid things out some parts will have more text than others, I plan on making it more uniform as I progress however I'm not confident using poses and expressions to aid me yet (they're a lot more fiddly than they where in Oblivion that's for damn sure) so I'm keeping things simple for the time being. Expect changes, I may change how the story is told as I figure things out and expect delays as I also get distracted.
With all that said, enjoy.
Vilkas: So what's the archmage of the college of Winterhold doing here?
Storm: I would like to join the companions.
Kodlak: And what would you hope to gain by joining us?
Storm: A cure to my own curse.
Vilkas: And what makes you think we have a cure?
Storm: Because of your own curse, I feel it would either override my own or the two would cancel each other out
Kodlak: Very well, I accept you into the companions. This is Vilkas he will test your arm.
Vilkas: If you can even handle a weapon that is.
Vilkas: So you do have arms and armour!
Storm: Aye and these are the weakest ones I possess, unenchanted and untempered for a fair fight.
-one quick sparring session later-
Vilkas: By Ysmir you're good, I didn't expect a mage to fight like that
Storm: I've had to learn how to fight using these weapons to...compensate for the restrictions my curse puts on my magic use.
Vilkas: ...Very well, welcome to the companions, could you take my sword to Eorland Gray-Mane to have it sharpened.
Stomr: Sure why not, I may be the archmage of the mages guild but here I'm just a newbie.
Storm: So you're Eorland Gray-Mane, Vilkas asked me to bring you his sword.
Eorland: Ah so you're the new blood everyone was talking about, a word of advice don't just do everyone's errands for them.
Storm: I don't plan on it, however I felt getting on at least someone's good side would make my life here a lot easier.
Eorland: Alright then, if you're intent on being helpful then take this shield to Aela. I'll let you use my forge if you do.
Skjor: Who are your?
Aela: This is the newblood who fought Vilkas
Skjor: Ah, I heard you handed his arse to him
Aela: So in a real fight, do you think you could beat him?
Storm: If I was being serious and not burdened by this fucking curse? As I am now? Probably, I have certain..."advantages" over him But enough about me, Aela I have your shield, Eorland asked me to bring it.
Aela: Thank you, why don't we have Farkas show you where you can sleep?
Skjor: FARKAS!
5 minutes later:
Farkas: Come this way, this is where the newbloods sleep.
Storm: Thank you for showing me.
Farkas: I heard you beat my brother, impressive.
Storm: Yeah, he's surprisingly tenacious.
Farkas: They breed them tough here, by the way if you're looking for work I have the perfect job for you involving Nazeem...
Storm: I'm listening.
