I was really surprised how nice the room was at Sickly Bernice's! Did not expect that at all! You did an amazing job on Vion's face; he has to be the best looking guy in Cyrodiil, lol.








I don't know how you managed to capture those butterflies in two screens, that happens so fast I've never been able to get even one screen of it! Amazing shots, those are my favorites.

This set is such a strong reminder of how awesome the quests and questlines were in Oblivion; that Gatekeeper was one of my favorite things - especially how it ties in to the whole SI story and having to build a new one, lol. Awesome shots!








One who roams forever - what an amazing shot, what made the fog so thick? Holy Cow, but it made for an amazing shot!

Vion in the Shivering Isles proper now! I so enjoyed exploring both Mania and Dementia and the night sky over Mania is spectacular - as you well showed us. What a fun adventure!

I agree! So much fun to explore the Isles so long ago and I really enjoy the pixies


"Sickly Bernice´s Taphouse" she calls it.... I reckon "Inn of Ill Omen" isn´t so bad after all

Thanks all!


I disable menus and then press PrintScr, because of disabled menu you won't get a notification that a screenshot was taken, so you can press it as many times you want and then choose best screenshots at the end.

Vion found the cure for Sickly Bernice but got lost on the way back. It is quite difficult to get oriented in Dementia, especially if gaming without a compass. Nonetheless, with time he found his way back by following creatures which he killed on his way to Knotty Bramble.

In the following days he socialized with friendly citizens of Crucible and explored more of the town, so he found its chapel, and even got a blessing.

He also ascended up to Palace Grounds, realizing that the Mad God lives in a far more luxurious palace than the Emperor of Tamriel used to live. For now he didn't dare to enter the Palace itself, instead he took a stroll through its gardens.

Exploring a vicinity of Crucible, he found Deepwallow, a small settlement where residents refused to leave their houses. Ever.
Since swimming was his favorite free time activity and he had free time in abundance, he couldn't resist a swim in the unnamed lake close to Crucible. When he felt that he had just become more athletic, he returned to the town.

Exploring some more areas around Crucible and fighting Balliwogs on his way, Vion found the infamous Hill of Suicides.

But being in Dementia was making Vion feel gloomy so he needed a change. What better to do than to enter Crucible's counterpart - Bliss. Its streets were bright and tidy, but its residents weren't much more sane than in Crucible. Others just wanted some Saa-WEET-ROOOOL. And a seductive bookseller wanted to spend a night with Vion. Or with Vion inside her.

Oh, that was funny about Vion getting lost while using 'Renee' navigation. Following the trail of dead bodies was clever though. Nice that he got some swimming in before encountering balliwogs. Bliss is beautiful. Luvs Golden Saints.

If you are a female that seductive bookseller threatens you not to take any of her men,

I remember that bookseller. She always threatened my characters too!

Another nice batch from the Isles! Really nice ones too


Lothran doesn´t want to go back there so I´m glad we get these pixies from Vion

Thanks all!

If they were only a little more polite. Dark Seducers are very kind compared to hot-tempered Golden Saints. But in any case, Bliss is a really beautiful place as is entire Mania and its skies.

I just checked her responses on the UESP if playing a female.

Why is this? Did he get bored of the Isles or he just doesn't like madmen in general?

Aren't they funny? Oh, thank you for the screenshot tips up above, I really appreciate that. I have a LOT of trouble capturing good screenshots. (but my biggest problem is remembering to hit "PrintScreen" when the action is happening instead of after it is over, lol).

WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOT !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


*mALX's head explodes*


Your textures are so tremendous here that I actually didn't recognize it! For a minute I thought you had started playing ESO, lol.

Agamir, oh no!

These are some great screenshots, and I am very excited you are touring Cyrodiil !!!!

Wowwwwwww you look so awesome, Persephone. I bet you are having fun!

Room for a night is my favorite. Just the contrast between shimmery, silvery Persephone and that elf's heartland tan.

Yay, Persephone finally makes it to Cyrodiil! She looks great - every single detail. And very recognizable as the Persephone we know and love fear.

Something tells me Agamir is going to have a bad day. . . .

An old/new dweller in Cyrodiil - welcome to Persephone!

Great shot with the Emperor, he looks as he is supposed to look.

Seems she safely led the Bloated Float back to the Imperial City.

Agarmir's days are numbered...great shots altogether!

Leaving Bliss, Vion walked through what he called "the mushroom avenue". He passed the legendary ruin of Milchar and spent the night by a nearby lake, to be awakened by the warm Sun.

He found Hale, a small settlement of artists, among which was also Halion, quite a poet. To Vion's surprise, Hale was also a home to another dweller from Cyrodiil - Pyke. Pyke was a former Knight of the Thorn from Cheydinhal and he asked Vion to retrieve his stolen amulet from nearby Fetid Grove.

At night residents of Hale locked themselves in their houses and Vion climbed up a giant root to find a place to sleep. The next day he walked to Fetid Grove, found its "heart", and gathered some amber.

He returned to Hale in the late afternoon and returned the found medallion to Pyke. His words made Vion think whether he'll ever return to Cyrodiil himself. He spent another night atop the giant root, reading Saints and Seducers before sleeping.

I remember mushroom avenue. That is one of my favorite places in the Isles. Seeing all the pics is getting me in the mood to go there. Perhaps Persephone will take a trip to the strange door in Niben Bay?

"Really, do come in. It's lovely in the Isles right now. Perfect time for a visit."

Really cool-looking place. No wonder so many people like S.I.

Lopov - Like SubRosa, I also love 'mushroom avenue'. And camping up in the big mushrooms is a fun idea. Great set of shots from the SI. Such a wonderful and beautiful land to visit!

Renee: The truth is, I cannot count how many times I have remade Persephone's face since I created her late Friday night. Every time I think I have it good, I see it from a different angle and cringe. I have gone back to the drawing board and started over from scratch at least three or four times. I think I finally have it together now. I just hope I don't jinx it by saying that!


Lopov: Maybe Persephone will make it to the Isles. But I installed Unique Landscapes a while ago, and have not had the chance to see all the things it adds. I think I will finish up exploring those new areas first.

I am using a mod that makes Uriel and Martin Septim look like their voice actors. I have to say I love it.


mALX: It is nice to be back in Cyrodiil again, after being away for so long. Tbh, one of the big reasons I am not interested in ESO is that I could not play my favorite characters in it. It is has a class system, and there is no modding. I could not play Persephone because while she is mainly a fighter, she is also a necromancer as well. Conjuring the Darryls is just as much a part of who she is and what she does as swinging a greatsword. Likewise, while Teresa of the Faint Smile is mainly a woodsy archer, conjuring animals is just as much a part of her as using a bow. Of course I'd never be able to do either in ESO.

I am using Qarls Texture Pack 3, which really turns up the quality on the textures. It really makes it look like a different game. I am also using the face textures from Robert's Female Bodies (but not the actual body textures or meshes ) I liked the BAB body a little better, but I think Robert's has the best facial textures I have seen for Oblivion.


Acadian: Persephone has been everywhere else, so it is high time she visited Cyrodiil. Who knows, maybe I'll take her for a spin in Morrowind someday, and try out Skywind with her. She has rapidly become my favorite character. I just can't quit the living dead girl.

Agarmir just had a very bad day. Stay tuned.


That you too, Agarmir?
