Retro Post! Have Some Sketches Of A Dying OC Around Some Pretty Mer

Happy Daggerfall release anniversary!

I love it, but I'm glad the orcs stopped throwing children into the deepest dungeon pits in later games.

Today is The Elder Scrolls Adventures: Redguard release day!

⠀⠀The game came with a Pocket Guide to the Empire that confirmed the most iconic elements of TES lore, as well as the only official comic book, the cover of which I decided to redraw with the first full-fledged dunmer of the series (sorry, dark elves from the previous games, you didn't have cool pet bugs and ash masks).

Special thanks to @mway1 for the flag

Dram and his simulacrum by Gray Hamster! (Instagram, VK)

Actually, there's two of them, because I found someone who's as crazy about him as I am 💚 life is good

This is the first drawing of Rene, from before she was even a TESA: Redguard OC.

And here's some more recent sketches of her (this is just two unrelated pictures, not a comic)

Yeah, TES is so friendly to OC x canon ships because your character is literally a part of the story and yet I chose the ONLY (?) game where it isn't 🤪

Anyway, the more you scroll down - the worse

(Every sketch has "massive" context btw, but I'm not a ficwriter, sadly)

(Especially this, so I'll try my best)

Here we see a war criminal, his adoring fan (who has almost no idea about any of his crimes) and her friend who planned to make him pay for everything together...

I warned you!

We're descending into hell %D

Yay! I have been accepted into that TES Ask Blog! Headcanons for everyone!

(So sorry for wacky text formatting, I scrupulously adjusted the speechbubbles for it in another language and doing it again is too much work for my lazy ass)

2 of 7. Dagoth Tureynul

Lord of Tureynulal, called "Hearthrum Drinker", "Breviloquent Taskmaster", and "Gold Skinner's Curate". Scholar and academic, Tureynul presided over dwemer athenaeum with only Endus as equal. Well versed in aurals, recreation of his symphonies by our musicians has melted base iron and warped solid trickster's blood. While tonal magic is not a traditional art of House Dagoth, Tureynul's compositions are undeniably superior to those of his peers, and his mastery is as elusive as it is difficult to earn his attention. Each of his six fingers covered in the own blood from playing and each beads of his jevelry has own meaning in compostion.

Tureynul Araynys

That's what getting dumped in some ruins by some smugglers who've been using you as a living fishing rod (but for treasure) does to an Argonian. (Her left big horn is broken)

DRAM. IS SO CUTE I JUST PLAYED REDGUARD FOR THE FIRST TIME AND OMG

Yesss (I think he sometimes uses his weapons as little mirrors)

Something decent before I inevitably flood this blog with sketches, violence, silly jokes and, worst of all, older drawings

I think it would be so beautiful if at least some dunmer could have this skintone. Let dark elves be dark
