Hi,
So my life is going to be interesting over the next few weeks, this means that I’ll be taking a week or two off while I get adjusted. I will be back with the Felicia story. In preparation for the tale, I decided to do introductions to the Thanes you haven’t met yet (Winterhold, Windhelm, Solitude...etc). This should help set the stage for the next story. See you all in a few weeks!
Portia (Thane of Winterhold)
Occupation: Former Arch-Mage
Bio: Few people are as insulated from the harsh world of Skyrim as the Arch-Mage and even fewer people are suited for the task. Portia seemed a natural fit for the position with her natural magical aptitude and her family history. However, after a few years as the Arch-Mage, Portia asked to be relieved of the position claiming it limited her growth in the field of magic. Portia now serves as Thane in Winterhold attempting to assist her people recover after the magical calamity the ripped their city apart. Given her history with the college, most of the residents don’t trust Portia, but that hasn’t stopped her from trying to help shield them from the wild magic in Skyrim.

Sable (Thane of Windhelm)
Occupation: Soldier
Bio: Sable, also called Princess Sable, is the youngest of the Thanes. Moments prior to Sable’s birth, her mother’s village was the epicenter of a territory war between rieklings and goblins. As the rieklings surveyed their hard won land, they happened upon Sable’s mother and helped her to give birth. Unfortunately, the woman died in childbirth, leaving the riekling tribe with newborn baby, Sable. The riekling chief, took Sable in as his own kin, calling her the “Princess of Victory” for his people. It was not until the age of 10 that Sable met another human being, the Elder Sage of Dawnstar, who helped teach her the nordic culture. Since then, Sable’s straight-forward manner, unusual fighting style, and relations with the rieklings of Skyrim have made her an invaluable asset to the Stormcloak army.

Rarisa (Thane of Solitude)
Occupation: Court Wizard
Bio: A resident in the city of Solitude, Rarisa holds a dual office of both Thane and Court Wizard. Typically cheerful and hopeful, Rarisa led a coalition of Imperials and Thalmor attempting to capture a relic of great power. Unfortunately, due to a Stormcloak ambush, her entire group was shattered before her. Through her loss, Rarisa, exploded with rage, reducing the standing forces in the area to ash. This was the first time, Rarisa had used her magical prowess to take life. Now, hardened by her experiences, Rarisa uses her standing and magic to increase her power within the Courts of Skyrim and eventually Tamriel.

Felicia (Thane of Morthal)
Occupation: Assassin
Bio: Little is known about Felicia’s past. At a young age, she was left at the orphanage in Riften but she left for a life of crime before she was 13 years old. After a violent fallout with the Thieves guild, Felicia wandered Skyrim looking for opportunities to ply her trade. She emerged a few short years later, in Morthal as a person of great importance but few knew how she rose to power. Given her history, one could bet that her rise to power was just as bloody as the swath she cut across Skyrim.
Quote: “Skyrim’s elite pay handsomely for blood. I wonder how much your’s is worth?”
Let me know which one was your favorite!
