The Journal of an Elven Archer Options

[Riften]

I have completely revamped my character Riften.

I'd like to think of Riften as a Tamrielic version of Jack Sparrow, at least in personality.
He is a very charming Altmeri who is obsessed with the bow but he also is amazingly skilled in the arcane arts but doesn't tend to reveal his powers to people, he would only show his powers to his dearest of friends.

He is in love with lush forests, flowing waterfalls and deep lakes. He is a great Alchemist who collects a variety of ingredients from wherever he can find them. He can also make the deadliest of poisons for his arrows and the healthiest of potions for when he is in need.

Back in his younger days in Summerset Isles, he was fascinated by anything to do with Daedra, whether it be magic, Princes, Oblivion. Just before he left to start a new life in Cyrodill, he was studying the gates of Oblivion and how to open and shut them.

He is never racist in anyway he generally is easy to befriend but if you do anything to his friends, he would probably pierce an arrow through your heart, literally.

He has also studied a lot about Cyrodill and the people there, He has heard about an Archery Tournament where Cyrodills best archers gather all round. He has heard a lot about the winners of the tourney, some of which live in the town of Bravil which he is eager to visit and meet the winners.

I'll be posting Chapter 1 tomorrow then I will stick to my old timetable and update the Journal on Mon | Wed | Thu

Excellent story...Looking forward to seeing how it develops...

You ask about comparing it to the other one...Well, it's different... ...

One of the things about the other one I thought was cool, was the idea that he'd been a different race each time he came back...Loved that idea...

Oh, many other peoples more qualified to grade punctuation and all that...But one thing I noticed is this...In a previous life I had to go on a course to teach you how to deal with members of the public, and one thing they had us do is introduce ourselves...And one chap said "I'm Mister Summaty-Summat..."...Apparently you never introduce yourself with your title...So when you say...

The name is General Fainde...

"I am the General of the Aldmeri Dominion...

It should be -

The name is Fainde, I am the General of the Aldmeri Dominion

And wouldn't that be A General?...Surely they'd have more than one?...

Otherwise...Fantastic start...

Nice one... ...
