Anyone want to Adventure in Solstheim?

Hi Everyone!

 

While working on Andaria’s story, I had an idea for another shorter one in Solstheim.  Began to feed the idea, and came up with a story.  Let’s meet the protagonists below.  


 

Adrea

 

Spoiler

Lead of the Ravenrock based group: Scarlet Sylphs, Adrea is a happy go lucky mage from Skyrim who left the college of Winterhold after her favorite teacher retired to pursue more fulfilling work.

Upon her arrival in Solstheim, Adrea began to work odd jobs & bounties for people in exchange for money and training.  As such, she’s grown into a capable water mage.

Where her skill in magic lacks, she makes up with her skill in...ahem….”Speechcraft”...

 

Adrea: Master Neloth! Didn’t you say you had some training for me to do today?  

 

Neloth:  Get out of here before I toss you out!

 

38723319185_bab9bff8bf_o.jpg

 

Some people, however, aren’t willing to part with their secrets so easily.  Luckily she remembers some of her lessons from the College of Winterhold.  

 

Adrea:  Master Neloth, You said you didn’t need this Enchanter’s Elixer right?  

 

Neloth:  Stop it! You’re bothering my apprentice.  

 

39590096802_496607a12e_o.jpg

 

Adrea:  Oh, I thought you said you needed a Staff ENHANCER...not Enchanter.  

 

Neloth:  You need to cool down…

 

38723319255_fbdb18c37b_o.jpg

 

*Plop*!

 

Adrea:  mmmmh! Master Neloth really doesn’t want to be bothered today.  

 

39590096842_8048f1d10f_o.jpg

 

Adrea:  That’s ok, at least he showed me his teleportation spell. Ga-ga-ga-gotta...w-w-w-write that d-d-d-down.   

 

 


 

Dior

 

Spoiler

 

 

39590098552_003e9e44e9_o.jpg

 

Dior is the rough and tumble one of the group.  Previously of the Tamriel Fighter’s Guild, Dior left to pursue new experiences in Solstheim

 

Dior: Just gotta loosen up before this next fight.  **Crack**

 

38723320775_cf447668ff_o.jpg

 

She fights with a style of mixed martial arts learned from her masters in Cyrodiil.  She is unexpectedly effective against her opponents, even those in heavy armor.   

 

Dior: Today’s Mission: Remove the Riekling infestation from this cave.  

 

39590098732_f5799fd0fa_o.jpg

 

Dior:  Whew, gotta take a break from those little Goblins...

 

39619667751_30679006d6_o.jpg

 

Dior dresses in a manner that is most suitable for her martial arts.  Much to her chagrin, however, it has attracted the attention of most of Raven Rock’s male populace.  

 

Dior:  Could I get some privacy please?  

 

38723320845_b5e51095d2_o.jpg

 

Sometimes, she has to go to extreme measures to keep them away.  

 

Dior:  Sure, I’ll let you watch me bathe.  Which finger do you want me to break as payment?  

 

39590098812_256952d279_o.jpg

 

Dior:  Do you mind? I’m trying to finish my stretches here!

 

39619667901_efc27cc76a_o.jpg

 

Dior:  You are a persistent one.  Fine, I suppose you can watch...but NO touching.  

 

 


 

Eira

Spoiler

39619672021_8f312aa2c7_o.jpg

 

The youngest of the group, Eira is the daughter of Reaver bandits.  When she was 16 years old, her mother and father overheard their leader talking about selling Eira into the slave trade to make some extra money.  

 

39590100472_18758432d4_o.jpg

 

To save their daughter from slavery, Eira’s parents sent her away to Raven Rock with their leader’s prized bow.  Angered with his subordinate’s decision, the reaver had Eira’s parents killed.  

 

38723322365_17c3503453_o.jpg

 

2 years later, Eira returned the favor by killing him and wiping out his entire bandit camp.  

 

Eira:  Nothing sadder than a bandit treasury with no treasure.  

 

39590100542_b83e99116a_o.jpg

 

Eira now aids the Scarlet Sylphs with her knowledge of the bandit camps in Solstheim and her hunting skills.  

 

38723322425_03225f29bc_o.jpg

 

Also, she is a bit of a cleptomaniac.  

 

Eira:  Now that’s a statue I can turn a profit from!

 

39619672241_a13008ab5f_o.jpg

 

Eira isn’t much of a close range fighter, but has been taking lessons with Dior to round out her skill set.  She also began taking style tips from Dior as well.  

 

Eira:  Ok, now tell me truthfully….

 

39590100642_ee5bfb5afd_o.jpg

 

Eira:  Do you think I look better than this statue?  

 


 

Varina  

 

Spoiler

 

 

39619675711_38190c7508_o.jpg

 

As the most experience member of the Scarlet Sylphs, Varina began her career as a mercenary taking jobs from the Thalmor.  

 

Varina:  What are you doing here?

 

24751586237_048a9b43e0_o.jpg

 

She picked up many martial skills from the Thalmor and, as a result of her good work, was given custom built elven armor.

 

Varina:  Oh, so you want to see how I handle my sword?  

 

39619675821_997c42128e_o.jpg

 

Being a human amongst elves, Varina was often the outcast on her contracts, developing a cool attitude towards others.  It’s not impossible to earn Varina’s respect.  But she can be a bit authoritative with newcomers.  

 

Varina: Wait, you followed me all the way through this tomb?  Did you see my breastplate back there? I think some skeleton bastard ripped the leather holding it together.  

 

39619675851_83325895f0_o.jpg

 

Behind her bossy-ness is a deep caring for people she considers her friends.  She acts as the de-facto mother for the group.  

 

Varina: So you want to share the loot with me?  

 

38723324305_c802d34b57_o.jpg

 

Varina also has an overactive libido.  Which is both good AND bad for the Sylphs.  

 

Varina:  I’ve got a MUCH better idea.  Come on over here.  

 

39590102032_cfd3bab77c_o.jpg

 

Varina:  Cave water...probably good enough to clean up with.  

 

27842492469_0f8b0f81f4_o.jpg

 

Varina:  Great, jump in the bath and the Lich finally shows up.  

 

 


 

The Set Up

 

Spoiler

 

 

Together the Scarlet Sylphs have a firm grip on the contract market in Raven Rock.  This has caused other mercenaries to squabble for other contracts the Sylphs passed over or leave Raven Rock for more lucrative markets.  Discontent among the other mercenaries within Raven Rock may hold ill for the Scarlet Sylphs.  Talks of ambush and pooching jobs are common among those can’t find work.  But, the Scarlet Sylphs have been dealing with this discontent since their founding.  So, Do you want to adventure in Solstheim?

Sure i'd like to see it, not a ton of people use solstheim honestly.

 

I can understand why, the game seems to crash every 5 minutes.  Did you ever get any sort of stability during Emily's adventures?

Thanks! 

for the most part my game is pretty stable, only crashes i got were normally caused by sexlab when starting in animation but those were rare, for the most part solstheim works fine in my game during all three times i made stories there.

Dior and Eira's faces seem a bit different than what you usually create it seems, maybe the base isn't the same. Still, you like creating characters don't you ? :classic_tongue:

 

Malicia : « That Adrea girl has a highly healty way of seeing things ! I have very good skills in speechcraft too ; only thing is that my mage robes do not allow me to show them easily, yes. million_dollar_baby.gif»

I made a bunch of Temptress Presets a while ago and I had some time to convert a few to a different race mod.  They look much better IMO.  Varina is the only actual new one out of the group.  So much for developing tastes. :neutral:

 

Adrea:  There's a silver-lining in every situation!  For example, after the quick dip in the icy waterfall, I didn't have to bathe myself the rest of the day.  :tongue: Take that Neloth!

I will go forward with it! Thanks!.  Felicia is currently journeying to **Redacted** after narrowing avoiding being electrocuted by Portia.  Don't worry, she's not having any fun on the trip.  She dislikes her travel companions.
