#altmer headcannons

[jag-rat]

Okay hear me out. What if the Falmer were culturally far more similar to the modern day nords rather than the altmer or the ayleids?

Like if the Falmer's culture was a more intense version of what we see of the ancient nords in Skyrim. Because the nords kind of just integrated their own culture into the falmers. Maybe the Falmer were originally far more similar to the vikings and other ancient Scandinavian cultures rather than just being the altmer but pale.

Or maybe even towards the end of their reign they started to shift cultures to a more altmer influenced lifestyle and religion making Auri-el a more prominent God figure in their pantheon. Sort of similar to how Scandinavia got christianised.

It would explain why tensions between the Atmorans and the Falmer suddenly became so high when they were previously living peacefully together.

It would also be fascinating to consider the fact the nords could actually be descendants of both the atmorans and the Falmer. Sort of like the bretons. It's very difficult to completely wipe out an entire country worth of people. And not every Falmer wanted to go underground with most being opposed to the idea. So it would make more sense for those who didn't join the Dwemer for protection to be slowly "integrated" with the atmorans which would explain the entire disappearance of the rest of the Falmer. It also gives the modern day Nords a new context which I really like because its sort of poetic irony the nords themselves would be another small part of what was left of the ancient falmer.

Also there's no way a bunch of people living in freezing cold temperatures aren't going to have beards. Bethesda is lying to me.

Anyways it might not line up with canon but it's an interesting thought. Also brings some funny scenarios to mind.

Rizah: *getting into bed with Caryalind*

Caryalind: Wait! You forgot to put on protection.

Rizah: Oh! Sorry my sweet. *opens bedside drawer* Want to help me put them on? *holds up his leather shoulder covers*

Caraylind: Sure, turn around I'll get the buckles.

Rizah: *gets into bed with Caryalind snuggles into him now with his venomous shoulder spines covered* Good night Cary.

Caryalind: *kisses Rizah on the forehead* Good night Riz.

-

Maormer are immune to each others venom, Rizah would feel so bad if he accidentally envenomated Cary even if it only causes temporary paralysis.

I got the idea to make Rizah a runaway prince too, I think it's fun.

I imagine them meeting after Caryalind notices he's being watched more and flees Solitude on a row boat, he gets pulled out from far from shore by a riptide and is stranded in the sea of ghosts. But Rizah come across him and tows back to shore.

*scurries in and crashes into wall* you said Ondolemar hc's???

He's got a big role in my wip (specifically one of the protagonists falls in love with him) so naturally I tried to develop him a lil more beyond his base canon state. I have a handful of random hc's for him too but you first!

Cheers, @akaviri-dovah

Thank you so much @akaviri-dovah @sheirukitriesfandom and @dirty-bosmer for asking about my Ondolemar headcannons <3

I got covid and thus my brain is feeling a lil funny so hopefully this is coherent.

To start I see him as deeply religious, very devoted to the Eight Divines. Particularly Auri-El, the chief deity of the Aldmeri parthenon. I headcanon him as getting involved with the Thalmor out of this religious duty, as well as I figure there is a heavy amount of propaganda shown towards Altmer starting from when they are children about how they are the descendants of Auri-El. This propaganda about Elven superiority, mixed with a general religious devotion, led Ondolemar into the Thalmor, and he quickly rose through the ranks. 

However, I think while his religious beliefs are strong, I believe his faith in the Aldmeri Dominion is becoming questioned. The position in Markarth is his first time being outside of the Summerset Isles for an extended period, and this is the most he has ever interacted with any non-Altmer, particularly humans. I can see that as he interacts with others more and learns about their way of life he begins to relax a bit. Yes he does arrest Ogmund and holds him prisoner, but the Temple of Talos is still open. This leads me to believe he is primarily trying to keep up appearances while grappling with these new experiences. 

Then enter the Dovahkiin, (mine is an Imperial woman) a hero who has powers from the Aedra he is most devoted to and a human. If the Altmer are Auri-El’s favored people then why is a human blessed with this gift? Ondolemar asks for the dragonborn’s help with Ogmund partially to do his job, but also as a means to get closer to them and figure out exactly how they work. 

For my Dovahkiin, Theodora, she is also very devoted to Auri-El but under the name Akatosh. I can see them have long discussions on religion and as they get to know each other, they both find the other to be 1. Not very different from themselves and 2. Not the evil nameless enemy they have been raised to believe. As Ondolemar was already struggling with his belief in the dominion, the Dovahkiin offers the perspective that maybe anyone can be blessed by the Divines and that perhaps the Altmeri Dominion is using religion to cover up an invasion they already wanted to do. 

Over time, the rhetoric he has repeated all his life isn’t adding up anymore, he is in too deep and doesn’t see a way out. That is until an unlikely alliance with the Dovahkiin that could break the foundation of both of their empires. What’s another secret in the City of Stone?  

But also here’s some fun headcanons!

Ondolemar surprisingly enjoys Nord Mead, he absolutely will not let anyone know he enjoys it, but also orders a small case once a month

He used to have long, beautiful hair, but began shaving it after he caught himself on fire using a spell. 

Although he may constantly complain about Markarth, he finds Dwemer culture fascinating and revels in getting to live where they once did. When not bogged down with paperwork for Elewen, him and Calcelmo have had long discussions about the Dwemer.  

Ondolemar is intimidated by Elenwen, hence why he tries to keep up appearances while questioning the Dominion. 

Despite fascination with the Dwemer, it only took one night of sleeping on the stone beds to have something custom built. If the key to a revolutionary society is back pain then he’s good to sit this one out.

If you are taking requests, could you do elenwen x male Breton dragonborn general headcannons? Like what the relationship would be like and that sort of thing. Please and thank you!

Your welcome friend! :)

——————

- We all know she’s gonna start out by looking down on him. She can’t see any other race as having use to her. But when she starts seeing how helpful he is, she may come around to respect him.

- She would absolutely info-dump about Altmeri culture like, 24/7. It’s so cute cause her facial expressions change, depending on what she’s talking about. It’s quite endearing.

- She is a Girlboss, so she will literally yell at people for saying things about him. Like if anyone says anything about how he doesn’t belong with the Altmer, they’ll die.

- THE HEIGHT DIFFERENCE?! Bruh. He’s like an ant compared to her. All those pictures of Zendaya holding Tom Holland while their walking around? That’s them.

- Being with someone of a different culture would also help her open up her beliefs of everyone being below her. Hopefully it will help her to work past her biases :)

Legate Fasendil Headcannons Nobody Asked For

Very intuitive. Has an uncanny ability to read people, with a piercing gaze that almost sees through you.

Although a bit if a hardass, he's highly respected by his soldiers. He won't tolerate any of them stepping out of line, but he looks out for them no matter what and does his best to make sure they get home alive. Some of his younger soldiers see him almost a father figure.

Despite his innate affinity for magic, he doesn't know how to cast any spells. He's more proficient with a sword, shield, and bow. His parents died when he was young, so he was mentored by a veteran of the Legion. He might have made an excellent battlemage had he the education, but he has no desire to attend a college to learn spells. His sword arm has served him fine for centuries.

Although he's a soldier through and through, he's not just another jackboot. He's analytical and cunning, one of the best military strategists in the Legion. Had he went down a different path years ago, he would have made a successful rogue.

Speaking of cunning and analytical, during his precious downtime, he loves to play King's Gambit. He's notoriously hard to beat. Many foolish recruits and tavern regulars have unwisely staked septims on games with the legate, only to walk away with empty coin purses.

Also don't get into archery competitions with him. You probably won't win. He's a surgeon with a bow, sending arrows through the eyes of rabbits (and bandits) several yards away with deadly accuracy.

The family members that were killed on the Night of Green Fire were the last relatives he had left that he's aware of. His parents passed away when he was young. There's a reason he wants to keep an eye on the Thalmor. A dark, animalistic part of him--a part that he's not even consciously aware of--craves to avenge the last of his family that were killed off, and he wouldn't hesitate at the opportunity to make sure the Thalmor got what was coming to them.

Although he's an Altmer, culturally he feels more like an Imperial due to how he was raised. He remembers only a few traditions his parents practiced when he was little.

This man is so stressed. Someone give him some ale already. It's extremely rare for him to not be working.

More headcannons to come whenever my bird brain thinks of any. Feel free to send asks about him!

— SHIP QUESTIONS

PRE-RELATIONSHIP

° How did they first meet?

  -The Centrifical Carburettor, a newly constructed experimentation hall for steam locomotives. Ondolerinde had just been sponsored by Dean Valkner An and was a full citizen of the Clockwork City, receiving a tour of the Brass Fortress.

° What was their first impression of each other?

  - Sotha Sil? Mildly impressed at the new addiction to the Apostles. He thought he was...cute? Why did he think that? No, no, he can't find anyone cute. It was unprofessional.

  - Ondolerinde? He was infatuated immediately, like instantly. Love at first sight. There was a Living God in front of him and Sotha Sil was better than anyone could describe. He was so in awe he dropped his books and notes in a flustered mess.

° Did any of their friends or family want them to get together?

  -Neither of their families, alive or otherwise, don't know so they have no say.

° Who felt romantic feelings first?

  -Surprisingly? Sotha Sil.

° Did either of them try to resist their feelings?

  -Both. One out of professionalism and the other respect. Ondolerinde saw Sotha as a person that shouldn't interact with mere mortals to begin with, much less have a romantic relationship with.

   -For Sotha Sil he initially believed similar. It was rare for him to interact with people, Apostles or otherwise. He couldn't single out one of his own followers...could he?

° If you had told one of them that the other would be their soulmate, what would they think?

  - "You really think so? At least I'm not the only one." Ondolerinde would be so happy someone would agree.

  - What's a soulmate? Sotha would be confussion. He's never heard the term before among the youngins but he never put any stock into such a preposterous idea.

GENERAL

° Who initiated the relationship, and how did it go?

  - Sotha Sil. It was very...awkward.

He marched right up to Ondolerinde and said, matter-of-factly, "We're dating now".

° Did they have an official first date? If so, what was it like?

  - Date? Like spend time with each other? Nothing but each other? With no one around? Just them? That was Sil's shit.

They had a relaxed date where they walked to the Pavilion of Artifice and Sotha explained various Fabricants along the way.

° What was their first kiss like?

  - Random, forceful and lead to tongue.

° Were they each other's first anything (kiss, relationship, etc.)?

- Sotha Sil experienced many things in his time. Kissing, love, and such. The only 'first' for him was the prospect of marriage.

- Ondolerinde on the other hand...experienced nothing in his childhood and teen years. He wasn't allowed to have crushes, first-loves or casual relationships in Alinor and when he worked with his Legion, that mindset continued.

Sotha Sil was his in every aspect.

  ° What's their height difference? Age difference?

  - Inside the Clockwork City? Only a few millimeters. On the outside? Roughly sixteen inches.

  -Sotha Sil's exact age is a mystery. I would put the difference around 3,390 years.

Ondolerinde is 50 years of age and Sotha Sil is 3,440.

° Who takes the lead in social situations?

  - It depends on the social situation.

If the situation is Apostles and Factotums then Sotha Sil takes the lead, as it should be. He's the boss, the main man, he shouldn't have a mouthpiece around his own people and creations.

Which means Ondolerinde picks up the slack for every other situation, which is fine to him. If for some reason they're outside the Clockwork City Ondolerinde is dealing with dignitaries, students and his Tribunal siblings.

° Who gets jealous easier?

  - Ondolerinde, but not in a traditional sense.

His partner is a Living God, who built an entire city, everything in it and he has to run the place. He's never jealous for Sil's time and attention but maybe once in a while he gets jealous by that new Factotum that's being built.

LOVE

° Who said "I love you" first?

  - Ondolerinde!

° What are their primary love languages?

  - Sotha Sil: Giving and receiving gifts, quality time.

  - Ondolerinde: Acts of service, touch.

° How often do they cuddle/engage in PDA?

  - They cuddle quite often, almost constantly but the Somnolostation isn't the optimal for being near each other. The 'Nestleberth Crucible' is an invention Sotha Sil made specifically designed to allow them to cuddle, work and be together for lengthy amounts of time.

  - As for PDA its uncommon. Sil doesn't want to appear he favours one of his Apostles over any others, he might loose credibility and followers. So the closest PDA will be a lingering touch on the small of Ondolerinde's back or touching his wrist.

° What are their favorite things to do together?

  - Explore Dwemer ruins, if there's ever a moment they get more than a days reprieve they're in a far flung corner of the world being adventurers! Finding remnants and knowledge left behind that could aid them.

  - If they aren't working or learning then they're being catty. There are instances of Sotha Sil being a petty bitch and sassing though never out of malicious intent.

Almalexia especially, that's their favorite topic to gossip about.

° Who's better at comforting the other?

  - Ondolerinde, by far.

He has a special view on the world, or that's how Sil interprets the Altmer's way of thinking. He knows exactly what to say and when to say it and it helps immensely. No matter what the situation is.

° Who's more protective?

  - Sotha Sil.

He's seen too much death, destruction and lost too many people in his life. It drives him to be better for Ondolerinde, to be there more and do more things so he doesn't loose him like his last Lover.

It also keeps him up, over-thinking and worrying.

° What kind of nicknames do they call each other?

  - Silly and cheesy names.

My Heart to Ondolerinde.

My Architect, Tinker and Thinker to Sotha Sil.

DOMESTIC LIFE

° If they get married, who proposes?

  - Sotha Sil.

He had a ring on him for years if not a century or two always waiting for that opportunity to spring the question. The perfect moment never arose so he popped the question in the middle of the night, no warning.

Thankfully Ondolerinde said yes!

° What's the wedding like? Who attends?

  - The wedding is small and takes place in two areas. The Basilica and a sequestered area in Alinor.

  - For the Basilica service the Congress of Calibration and the Tribunal were invited, Divayth Fyr showed up, so they'd be made aware of their relationship and how much it meant to both of them.

  - In Alinor, as strenuous as it was, Ondolerinde's parents and immediate family were invited for a private reciting of their vows.

° How many kids do they have, if any? What are they like?

  - A boy, Othalos Sothal.

Othalos is a pretty solid mix of his parents.

He's logical, calm, generous and compassionate. Too smart for his own good and dangerously curious, a volatile combination.

° Who's the stricter parent?

- They're equally as strict, which isn't much as they're complete pushovers.

° Who kills the bugs in the house?

- Skeevatrons!

° How do they celebrate holidays?

- They don't.

° Who's more likely to convince the other to come back to sleep in the morning?

- On any given morning it could be either.

Mostly it's Ondolerinde asking for a few more minutes of contact before Sil is off to make sure the world hasn't imploded on someone else's watch.

° Who's the better cook?

- Sotha Sil.

He finds cooking to be similar to building a fabricant, different parts going in and a whole new item being discovered and when he discovered his then crush didn't like the Nutrient Paste, he decided to change the game.

Story time, friendos

So I'm southern, and so is my friend, who's kinda like a second mom to me. We were discussing southernisms and she told me a funny one that I thought could apply to TES. Goes like this

"If a lady goes through her ancestry, and then stops suddenly, you DON'T ask why."

And that made me wonder, would that be an elven saying? Because I immediately pictured an elderly Dunmer man laughing and saying, "Ah, yes, a good old fashioned game of 'is that a Bosmer or a Khajiit?'. So many people stopping suddenly after a gamble gone wrong." At which point his grandchildren freak out and run around screaming in terror.

Listen, I’ve been away for a while, and I’ll probably be gone for a while more, but I just came back to post some of my Elder Scrolls headcannons because I’ve had them written down for a while.

1. Dunmeri culture allows for polyamory. While there may be a true-wife/husband, multiple consorts (particularly for the nobility) are considered normal. This is because of Almalexia, who according to the myth put forward by Vivec, was conceived and birthed by the ninety-nine lovers of Boethiah.

2. In fact, most elven cultures (including the Orcs, obvi) allow/have normalized polyamory. It’s just the Dunmer who have religious reasons.

3. The “fact” that elves only live 200 to 300 years was propaganda specifically spread by the Altmer in order to make elves seem closer to human so that the actual humans wouldn’t shun them. This made it easier for the second Aldmeri Dominion to form and eventually take over the Cyrodillic empire.

4. On that same note, Altmer live up to 900 to 1000 years old on average, and Dunmer and Bosmer live about 700 to 800 years. Orcs, while technically elves, have the same average life span of a human.

5. Most Bosmer were happy to have the Aldmeri Dominion return, and only began showing dissent after the Khajiit were brought in. This was because of the Khajiit’s unlawful seizure of traditional Bosmeri lands. Further dissent was sowed by the clear cutting of the forests of Valenwood by the Aldmeri Dominion soldiers.

6. While the majority of soldiers in the Aldmeri Dominion are Alter, the Dominion regularly takes Bosmeri children, in order to train them in Altmer ways, both martially and culturally.

7. Because of this, most Bosmer have begun adhering to the Green Pact with renewed fervor. Even salad-eaters have renounced their ways, and many feasts are conducted where ever large populations of Bosmer are present.

8. Bosmer are known to be the most fertile of the elves, but this is only true outside of Valenwood, and only true for those who do not adhere to the Green Pact. This is because all elves are conditionally fertile, and space is limited in Valenwood, even with Bosmeri magic.

9. If they wanted to, and were able to, if an Alter man had sex with a female Falmer, the resulting child would be a Snow elf.

10. With time, the current Falmer will become Snow Elves again, but without Gelebor, the culture would be entirely lost.

I’m going to end it here, because it’s getting a little long, but I’ll leave you with this: Bosmer have the biggest dicks of all races in Tamriel (excluding the dragons, who technically should count as a race because they are sentient).

In Search of a RP partner. Must be nsfw friendly (though, it is more story driven than anything else. This is NOT a porn. Smut , if any has to drive the story.)​

I'm looking for someone to RP as Ondolemar from Skyrim. It's a female Nord Vampire/ Ondolemar romance. I normally do not do F/M RPs, but this headcannon will not leave me alone. Ondolemar's looks are based off the Handsome Ondolemar mod. Though added flair is appreciated! Looking for 3rd pov, Literate/Semi-literate, prefer other's who like story more than smut. Daily replies (life gets in the way, a head's up would be appreciated!), Wanting a partner who can contribute to the story. I adore enemies to friends to lovers. At least a 2 paragraph reply. PLOT: I rather negotiate the plot with you! I have a general idea and will post when there is a prospect for a partner. Though, basic idea: Serana, Lucien , and Dexion suggested to Aconita, to accompany Dexion back to the Imperial City. Mainly as a distraction. She agrees and also suggests they stop off to visit some old friends at The College of Whispers. Thalmor are present, all along Cyrodil. Ondolemar had been reassigned to lead the Dominion's interests in the Imperial province. First, in the Imperial City, then in Lleyawyn. They do NOT hit it off at first. He suspects what she is (Bonus points for why he does not turn her in.). More Bonus Points: *Altmer breeding doctrines and since he is "superiorly bred" Mer? If he has any inclinations outside of other "Superiorly Bred" Altmer, consequences will be had. *Ondolemar is already in an arranged marriage. Both find the other quite dull, in secret. *An argument about Lorkhan. * Sancre Tor and debates on Talos. *Shared interest in a bitter, roasted bean brew (you may come up with the coffee equivalent name!) *Super Secretly soft Ondolemar. *Ondolemar, Lucien, and Dexion adventure shenanigans! A Bit about my character: Name: Aconita Age: 26. Height: 6'3. Race: Nord- Daughter of Coldharbour. Religion: Daedric worshipper. Main patrons being Sheogorath, Nocturnal, Sithis, and Hermaeous Mora. Formally Molag Bal. Affiliation: College of Whispers, Dark Brotherhood, and Volkihar Coven. Alignment: Chaotic Neutral. Sign: Born under the Shadow. Weapons of choice: Daedric Crescent, Dawn/Duskfang, and Ruin's Edge with Soul Stealer Arrows. Homesteads: Elysium meets Leafrest mashup, though in the Rift. Raven Castle, but make it a family thing. Also, resides in Volkihar Castle. Class: Multiclasses. Assasin/Necromancer (School of Conjuration)/Bard. Companions: Serana, Lucien Flavius (Follower mod, more like an apprentice.), Teldryn Sero, Shavee, Opal (an OC Bosmer, female.), Arvak, Durnevhir (Is able to summon him and does so regularly.), Babette, Tolfdir, Dexion, and Nazir. Former Companions: Ysolda (former, one sided love interest), Lydia (The companion that was turned into a sweetroll...), Kaidan ( a mod follower. Akaviri, former lover, but just left her with no reason as to why.), J'Zhargo (Partner in crime, had gone to Northpoint.), and the Dragonborn. Hobbies: Foraging, Cooking, Alchemy, Summoning, trying to commune with the hist. Is moonsugar a hobby or a way of life? Appearance: Avatar picture is of Aconita. Eyes: Reflective yellow/silver iris, and a deep blood red sclera. Almond shaped, hooded. Hair: Shoulder length, undercut, wavy, and a cool toned midnight black. Skin: Very pale, "White as snow", with cool undertones. Making her skin almost "glow" in certain cold light ( That is actually a thing, in certain ambient light, with cooler undertones). Various scars due to her adventures. Notable ones are under her left eye and right side of her mouth to her clavicle (They happened when she became a Daughter of Cold Harbour). Facial tattoos of a deep blackish red on both eyes (almost looks like elaborate makeup). Brief personality description: Unhinged, yet can be composed. Not the "SkYRiM fOr tHe nOrDs" type. Despises Ulfric. Enjoys conjuration... A little too much. Has fun with the Wabbajack. Once turned one of her companions into a sweetroll... Tried to find a way to reverse the effect... Got hungry, and well... You get the rest! She can be lethally calculating when the need arises, but gets bored

easily. Has a sweet tooth. There is obvious trauma, due to the Molag Bal ritual... Light hearted, dark sense of humour. A chronic insomniac. Referenced Mods in the RP will be: Soul Stealer Arrows, Elysium Estate, Raven Castle, Wearable Horns-TDN (Vampire Lord crown in picture.), Lucien Flavius, Kaiden, Handsome Ondolemar, Tamrielic Lore (a good one to look at!), Alchemical Cooking, Raven Witch Armor, Winterhold Restored, Magical College of Winterhold, Castle Volkihar Redux. Areas: I would love all of Tamriel to be traversed, or mentioned. Shivering Isles and Apocrypha. Mentions of Thras, Atmora, Yokudan, and Akavir. Frostcrag Spire. Lore: If you need a brush up or a rundown: Uesp.net is a great place. I'll also be more than willing to help! There is more, but will update for later. Message through here, inbox, or whatever is easiest for you, if interested! Thank you!

Mer + Ear Sensitivity

I have this headcannon that Mer ears, more specifically the tips of them, are sensitive zones, I thought I’d expand a little on that, starting from most to least sensitive (I will include Breton, simply because they’re mixed and do have slight points).

Altmer (High Elf)

Dunmer (Dark Elf)

Bosmer (Wood Elf)

Orsimer (Orc)

Breton (Half-Elf)

Now, to get into further detail, I feel like the sensation is overwhelming, practically immobilizing, some Mer like it, some don’t. It’s the biggest secret that is the exact reason no Mer allows their ears to be touched unless it’s by their S/O. I like to think it’s like grabbing a cat by the scruff of their neck (except a cat doesn’t moan when you do it), but equally as paralyzing.

If you have any hcs to add on, please do! I’d love to hear them and possible incorporate them into my writing!

Verandis Ravenwatch Linguistics Headcannons

Verandis is fluent in the Common Tongue, Bretic, and a long dead dialect of Altmeri.

The Common Tongue is known by many across Tamriel, and is spoken in the games. All but the most isolated people know a bit of it, and as a noble, Verandis has to be fluent in it. He sometimes even thinks in it.

Bretic is a language spoken throughout High Rock, so many people there know it. Verandis is no exception. It pays to understand the words whispered on the streets, and Bretic is filled with double-meanings and metaphors. Knowing how to interpret this has saved him from being stabbed before. His pursuers thought he wouldn’t know that “drag a clam along the ocean floor” and “hear the crows sing” meant murder. A lot of Bretic phrases mean murder.

Verandis was raised as a Direnni, and there are very few left who share his dialect. He has tried to talk to Altmer from Summerset multiple times in Altmeris, and it is a big struggle for him to understand or be understood. What he speaks sometimes sounds closer to Bretic. It makes him very sad when he thinks about being the only speaker of the dialect left. No one can understand the culture behind it either, and it is lonely.

He knows bits and pieces from many other languages, including Dunmeris, Ta’agra, Bosmeris, and even Ayleidoon.

You've been doing some Daedra headcannons so how about a hard one? Regular or relationship stuff for Namira? Slug Mommy needs love too! 🐜🥒🦠

Namira is so underrated! I have like 4 OC’s that are/are recovering cannibals. 

----------------

General

- I think Namira would care about her followers. Like, kinda how Malacath cares for his followers as they are “outcasts” and Namira Worshipers are outcasts too, I just think she’d be like their mom. 

- Namira’s favorite food is Altmer. She thinks they taste the best because of their good diet.

- Namira is a pretty calm being most of the time but don’t question her choices. She has an EXPLOSIVE temper. 

- Namira and Peryite are like BFF’s for lyfe. They share their favorite little critters all the time. 

Relationship 

- Namira is a pretty good partner. She has a really big heart and just has a lot of genuine care for you. 

- Of course, she expresses it a little strangely. Like I mean c’mon I know we’re cannibals but you didn’t have to get me 10 live human beings. 

- She’s also a pretty silent person. Like she doesn’t talk much, but she's a great listener. 

- Cuddly like no other. You're not entirely sure why, but she loves to cuddle with you. She could die in your arms (lol). 

- You're the only person she shares her meals with.

What races do your ATLA SKYRIM AU characters belong to

Honestly I haven’t thought about that AU in a very long time and never assigned races. I don’t know much about them. Toph feels like a Khajiit to me though, but I never liked the khajiit much. Aang is some kind of elf, maybe altmer. If this is a normal AU we’re talking about and not that one with vampire Zuko, then the Fire Nation would be the thalmor or imperials. I think Suki would be bosmer. The Water Tribe are redguards. I took my info on this from wikipedia because I haven’t played Skyrim in a while and I’m not too knowledgable on lore. If you’d like to me send me headcannons on their races, I’d love that. Thanks for the ask!

A quick sketch idea for Taliith and Valaste / the happy altmer wives.

Tal has just finished a 500 lap run around eyevea and val has just finished some rearranging of the mages guild’s master lexicon of books. Tal just intended for a quick kiss but val’s probably like “oh, how can i work with my darling wife just being right here, cute as she is. I cant, its decided :) “ and tals all =D

I headcannon taliith at 7ft and valaste at 7.5ft so tals standing on some of telengers old books to reach up a bit!

It was just meant to be a sketch but i might clean and ink this up properly.
