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

So, a voyage and a dream. We learn some of Riften and how he came by his skill with a bow. What a tragedy that befell his family before he was swooped away from Summerset Isles as a reluctant agent of the Aldmeri Dominion.

Since his agreement with Fainde was made under duress, I wonder to what extent (or even if) Riften will honor it once he sets his feet upon Cyrodiilic soil. Speaking of which, I’m guessing the port of destination to perhaps be Anvil. I am also looking forward to finding out if this version of Riften retains his taste for Tamika's.
