Persephone’s lair is coming along nicely! Now it has places for the cat to walk.

And a guest room for two.

Hmm, upper two floors? Leave them open – nothing like sleeping under the stars. Well, for those that sleep.

Wow, that pose with her arms spread, the time of day, setting sun, playful feel – what a great pair of screens those are! Who says dead girls don’t know how to have fun? Oops, sorry – didn’t mean to remind us of Falanu.

Those Hackdirters used to think they owned the market on scary – then they met Persephone.

[haute ecole rider]

Why should an undead cat be ugly? Why isn't Persephone an anatomy model (bones) or an example of Frankensteinian beauty (zombie). I would rather see a white cat, with silver eyes to match! Now that's an undead cat!

[mALX]

I wondered how you were getting in and out of the tower!

Wow, you did a whole heck of a lot of work on that Tower! I was wondering about the top shelves last screens you posted, and how you would reach them - you answered it, lol.


I was getting height sick seeing Persephone dancing so high above the ground in those two screens, and Aerosmith's song was a fitting title for that, lol. That was scary, especially since you took the camera off her and freed it to take the screen, GAAAAH!


Hackdirt - that place gives me the creeps! Those moonlings going around saying "Where?" - and I never realized it till I saw your close up screen of him, but that Moslin guy is a real anomaly, lol.

I really appreciate the second bed; Maxical might come visit soon, lol.

[SubRosa]

Acadian: It is a long way down from that top floor. But Persephone always jumps around when she is up there anyway. Girls just wanna have fun.

I had forgotten all about Falanu. There might be some wild times if and when Persephone finally goes to Skingrad.


haute ecole rider: I don't see what is ugly about a skelecat, or a frankencat. The original Persephone in Skyrim had the most heavily scarred face I could pick. In Oblivion it isn't an option, else she would have them here as well.


mALX: All of the Hackdirt people look really creepy. They have big, round, sort of fish-like faces. They are supposed to be mutants.


Persephone doesn't like the look of this guy, but she'll work for him in order to keep a closer eye on him

Return to Hackdirt

Night ruin

I put in a statue of Alessia on the tower's east face, and put in a deck with an observation lounge

I added a dragon statue to the Hammerfell side of the tower, and added a small table and chairs as well

I turned the third floor into a dojo

Persephone in bound armor (I replaced the vanilla armor with Ice Morrigan Equipment)

Molly by moonlight

[Acadian]

Something tells me that if Persephone finds all the Ancestors, they will not end up in this Altmer’s collection. . . .

I see she put those Hackdirters to the sword. Did she rescue Blossom and Dar-Ma?

Nice looking Ayleid ruin under one of the moons.

I see the Persephone Palace continues to grow!

The dark armor looks good – and intimidating.

Molly under the moons! Gee, Molly and Persephone. *shiver*

WOO Hoo, the Collector Questline! One of my absolute favorite quests in Oblivion!


Urk, those creepy people again! I have to give Bethesda kudos for whoever made that town; that place gives off just as freaky as anyone would wish for that quest! My skin crawls just looking at screens of it, lol.


Ah, now Persephone will be in her own element. I wonder if she is seeking out these Ayleid statues for her own purpose and history; and maybe just using Umbacano to settle an ancient score and get paid for collecting what was actually stolen from her people, possibly by Umbacano's own relatives, lol. For some reason I think there is more to it than just being a pawn in Umbacano's game, lol.



Oh, that statue of Alessia is Awesome there! And your choice of tables and chairs is so much better than mine! LeyawiinDeck04 - that piece is probably the most versatile static in Oblivion, lol. Great deck idea!


Wow, I don't remember seeing that dragon statue before, but it is absolutely perfect for Persephone to use in her tower! Awesome choice!



Oh what a great idea for using that upper ring! That is fantastic! Perfect!



OMG, that is bound armor? AWESOME !!!! That is gorgeous! And that sword is wicked looking!


MOLLY!!!! WOOOOOOOOT !!!!


This update is Awesome!!!

[SubRosa]

Acadian: Or if they do end up in that Altmer's collection, they will not remain there for long after his death...

Dar-Ma and her trusty Blossom are indeed safe and sound. She is the nicest person Persephone has met in Cryodiil. Dar-Ma that is.

Molly + Persephone = Chopping Mall!



mALX: One nice thing about the Collector questline is that if you select it, it will not put a green arrow constantly in your hud. That is a nice way to get rid of it, even when you are not actually doing the quest.

I think you got a little confused about Persephone. She is not an Ayleid. She is an Imperial. She was a slave of the Ayleids, which is why she was born in Lipsand Tarn. Her people are Alessia and the other Imperials. That is one reason she lives in an old Imperial tower.

The dragon statue is from the middle of the Talos Plaza District. They also use it for the stone dragon that Martin's body turns into at the end of the main quest.

Gaaah, and I filled her tower with Ayleid stuff thinking she'd like it! Oh no! That is like reminding her of the slavers that held her! Urk...Maxical seems to have put her foot in it. I'm so sorry.



Those statues never stay long in Umbacano Manor after his untimely demise in my game either. In fact, just for fun I considered stealing them as I am leaving the room each time or something - not waiting till he is gone (just to see what happens, lol).

I mean, I'll save first just in case. Maybe I can swipe his silver right under his nose too, lol. If I do it, I'll get a screenshot of him sitting there while she is taking a statue,

Is the mouse a friend of Persephone's?


Oh, Persephone's face looks spectacular in this shot!


What a great pose that is, and Awesome sword!



Urk, I guess I didn't want to keep my dinner anyway ...



Is this Darryl friend or foe? He has kind of an evil grin, lol.



AWESOME Face !!!!


Really nice update, and I'm sorry again for the mistake. My deepest apologies to Persephone

It is no big deal. I can see how you might get confused with her history, not to mention how similar she looks to Teresa. Persephone's paleness is not natural though. Well I suppose it is. She is dead, and doesn't have any blood in her body.

I love the pale skin, and she does kind of look undead - but like someone who was really full of life when she was alive.

Oh, I could never confuse her with beloved Teresa, her hair isn't red, lol. And pale or not - Teresa is very much alive, lol.

Thank you for understanding, I can't believe I messed that up!

Aww, that's nice to hear about Dar-Ma and Blossom. Chopping Mall!

What a great shot of swimming with the rat. Oh, and I understand Endre doesn’t use his lair anyway. I like Darryl, whether he looks all bony or like a druglord. The thing I miss most about SkyDarryl though is those beautiful blue eyes of his!

I have been thinking that Persephone's latest and (cross my fingers) final face looks a lot like Traylor Howard. She played Natalie on Monk.


mALX: I am sure Persephone was full of something when she was alive!


Acadian: I miss Draugr Darryl as well. I searched for mods that add Draugr to Oblivion, but sadly found none.

That rat was sitting there in the middle of the pool swimming, but going nowhere. His legs were moving though, so he was definitely swimming. Sort of like a hamster on a wheel, without the wheel... That just demanded a picture.

Oh no, Persephone looks much better than Traylor!

I think Buffy has had her picture taken with that goblin before too! Must be the latest trend, Maxical will have to find the spot and pose with it too!

These are so stunning! The Jeralls are hauntingly beautiful. In game I could spend months wandering them; and did spend a lot of time looking toward Skyrim long before there was a reason to, lol.

Persnowphene! She blends in so well with the backdrop colors here!

Moonlit Mountaintops looks like that spot just around the corner from Dive Rock, where is she going?

Powering Up is awesome, but my two favorites are Jerall Sunset and Gazing Upon Skyrim; and I can't choose between them for a favorite.

What an Awesome update!

Poor goblin. Drank too much and got stuck on the potty. MALX is right, I do have a shot of Buffy visiting him somewhere.

Pffft, what’s a little snow to a dead girl?

Persephone showing off her sword at sunset is beautiful.

Nice glow from that spell. Those kind of shots where the light is provided mostly by a spell effect are neat.

Do it Persephone! Go back through Pale Pass!

And a very pretty picture of her under one of the moons.

[SubRosa]

mALX: Getting your picture taken with the drunken goblin is one of the things to do in Cyrodiil! Right up with visiting White Gold Tower and going to a wine-tasting party in Skingrad.

Moonlit Mountains was in the opposite direction from what you were thinking. It was somewhere north east of Sancre Tor, between it and Cloud Ruler Temple. Persephone is slowly working her way east through Bruma county, so Dive Rock will be sooner rather than later.


Acadian: Actually Pale Pass is probably going to be Persephone's next stop. I last left her in the Countess' great hall.




But before Persephone can venture back into the icy cold Jeralls, she has a some business to do in the Arizona Wasteland.

Persephone is now leading a team of Arizona Rangers in Wasteland 2

She has teamed up with her BFF Serana

Her adopted daughter Lucia is the third member of the team

And Sofie the fourth

Lucia is handy with grenades

The ships of the desert

I would have a lot of trouble seeing the characters in combat on this one, but it looks fun and funny! Plus I like that you can bring in so many of your characters - and what an Awesome job you did on Serana, it looks just like her!

[Acadian]

Yay for Persephone and Team Tamriel in the desert! What better BFF for Persephone than fellow dead girl Serana? And the grown up kids for some extra kick. Seems like a great team. Thanks for these great shots from the wastelands.

[SubRosa]

mALX: I am not thrilled with the camera either. I wish you could zoom in closer to see your characters better. It would also be nice to zoom out more to see more of the world around you.

That is Serana silly! I just used a screenshot I took of her and cropped it down in size. The same with all the others.


Acadian: I was originally going to use Darryl and Other Darryl to round out the team. But grown-up Sofie and Lucia are much nicer to look at.


A Discobot has Sofie in its sights (the Discobot effect makes it easier for you to be hit)

Slicer-Dicers, among the worst of the robots you will fight in this game, sort of like Deathclaws in Fallout

A Slicer-Dicer beam in action.

Persephone responds with a rocket launcher

Boom!

Follow that tortoise

For a brief time Team Deadwalker had these three extra followers: The Provost, Vax (the robot), and The Secret of Nimh (the rat)

Persephone's boot...

[Acadian]

Yikes, looks like Team Tamriel was besieged by mutant kitchen gadgets and food processors!

Finally, Persephone brings out the rocket launcher to sort things out.

Serves those folks right. If they want goop collectors, they should have called Ghostbusters, not Team Deadwalker.

[mALX]

I really like the exterior shots; the lower four screens - really looks like a wasteland I'd want to explore, lol. Those "Slicer Dicer's" look scary, especially attacking in a group that way and that big red circle! Whatever the heck went on there looked painful!

These are great shots, I know I couldn't play it because of all the reading, but I love seeing you cover games I've never seen or heard of before!


** on zooming in and out:

Yes, I thought that on those last four shots; that it would have been nice to zoom out and see more of the territory around them. But yeah, in combat I would die every time if I couldn't see the fight to decide my next move, lol.

But I love seeing you cover these games, I mean - I never would have heard of this one or Roman Wars if it wasn't for you!
