Aravi in Skyrim, her video story Options

[mALX]

I love Aravi's expression in "Ancient Ruins!"

Wow, colorful dragons? Is that a mod or your summon?

"The Reach" is my favorite, both the screen and that area - I LOVE The Reach ingame! This screen captures everything I love so much about it. It is gorgeous!

You sent me the "Sun Bow," I'm dying to see you shoot the sun with it!

Awesome shots, all of them!

Congrats on the end of one trying [censored] semester, bless your heart for all it put you through! <3

Welcome back from the land of exams! So nice to see an Aravi update!


Ancient Ruins is a fabulous close up face study of Aravi. Are those icicles? Brr!

Looks like Kharjo’s been teaching her to use a staff! Dual wielding in her loinkini - just doesn’t get any better than that!

Wow, that dragon looks like he ate a rainbow!

Love Aravi sprinting through the Reach!

A new bow! And a big’un she be!

[SubRosa]

Welcome back Aravi!

Ancient Ruins is a nice close up of Aravi in the setting sun, with the Snow Elf ruins in the background.

Sword and Staff looks really cool!

The colors look really weird in Dragons. Is that dragon supposed to have a red head and green body? Or is it just a trick of the light?

Aravi has a wonderful spring in her step in The Reach.

And finally I see she is putting Auriel's Bow to good use.

[Darkness Eternal]

Aravi has returned! Hooray! Sound horns!



Ancient ruins- Ah! So she's the first Khajiit to have set foot her in centuries!

Sword and staff- Sword and staff. A deadly combination, added with the amulet she's wearing it is definetly a potent mix.

Dragons-Hehe. Rainbow dragons! I can see Aravi grinning when firing that arrow. Though skin-color is deceptive. I bet the fire, multicolored or not, is still dangerous! Great pic!

The Reach- Run Aravi run! Is she just sprinting for fun? Late for something? Or fleeing from a pack of wild Forsworn? Nevertheless a fantastic picture.

Sun bow- Oreo's Bow?! Shoot at the sun, Aravi! I bet she's having a hell of a blast with this one!

Good to see you back into the fold, King. And Aravi is refreshed, wonderful and enchanting as ever.

[Grits]

Ancient ruins looks cold! Nice to see Aravi bundled up in her furs.

That’s a great, moody sky in the one with the sword and staff. And I love that sword!

Lol, I think the rainbow dragon has quite the bloody nose. I LOVE Aravi’s pose in that one, and Kharjo down below shooting up at the dragon. Really neat! And what a great view of a gorgeous dragon!

Aah, The Reach is so pretty. On a day like that she’s probably just running for the joy of it.

Woo, Auriel’s Bow! What a beautiful shot with the light on her bow and armor.

It’s great to have you back!!

[King Coin]

It has taken me a lot longer than I anticipated to get caught up enough for me to feel like I can update again. I’ll get hard to work on Aravi’s next chapter over this extended weekend. And a summary of the last one so you guys actually know what’s happening!

@mALX: I loved seeing those ruins for the first time. They are totally awesome! I have another screen that I use as a background that has the light shining through from the other side. This one had Aravi in it so I posted it instead.

The dragons have some modded textures I think. The dragon in the back is Odahviing, one that can be summoned after the completion of the MQ.

The only thing I don’t like about the Reach is how difficult it is to get around sometimes. Other than that, it’s beautiful.

I’ll definitely make a video of the Sun. It actually works in this save!

Thank you very much mALX for everything. It may not seem like much but you were a great help this semester.

@Acadian: You as well Acadian. I didn’t have much time but you and mALX helped keep me sane through that month.

I liked the look of Aravi’s face in that screen, it makes it seem like she’s looking at the ruins (even though she is actually facing away from it).

Aravi uses a pair of staves at one point; that was a lot of fun.

I like the colorful dragons.

Looks almost like a Buffy sized bow. Thanks Acadian!

@SubRosa: I wish I had stuck around those ruins a little longer, they are great screenshot fodder.

Destruction staves are the only way Aravi’s going to get her hands on that form of magic.

The dragon has blood on his face which is why it’s red.

If you can’t tell, I like getting screens of Aravi running. Thanks SubRosa!

@DE: The sword and staff lets her fight at any range unlike her bow. She doesn’t get to use the staves often though. Her skill (or lack thereof) results in a lot of waste.

No matter the color, a dragon’s teeth are still sharp!

In the Reach, she’s just running for fun.

Aravi has to be careful with that bow. I’ve found it can be harmful to followers. Thanks DE!

@Grits: Fur armor might offer the last protection, but it’s the warmest!

That sword is perfect for Aravi’s needs. Thin and curved with an excellent point.

That screen was interesting to capture. Getting the camera in the right position to capture everything was difficult! Too far back and it clips the ground, too far forward and you miss something of Kharjo or the dragon. I like her pose too.

The Reach – Exactly!

I like the way the bow looks like it’s glowing. Thanks Grits!

Rulers of the night

Light and dark

"No matter what else happens, the guards will always be grateful for everything you've done."
(that’s probably the nicest thing one of them has said to her)

Silver and gold

Sunburst

[Elisabeth Hollow]

Dude, you get some of the greatest shots I've ever seen. Sunburst and Light and Dark are my favorites out of this set.

[SubRosa]

Rulers of the Night was wonderfully ominous, thanks in no small part to glowy-eyed Serana in the back.

Light and Dark is an excellent close-up of Aravi!

Oh my Kharjo is all fancy! He looks like a Knight of the Round Table!

That toothy rictus on Aravi's face in the last pic is sure to freeze the blood of even a vampire!

[Acadian]

Gosh, KC, you really outscreened yourself here!

I figured that was Serana in Rulers, then SubRosa nicely confirmed it for me. Awesome with the stars and all.

Light & dark is one scary kitty!

The guard looks good in that cape!

Silver and gold is gorgeous. Aravi’s armor is very nice, but that silver plate on K-kat with the unicorns emblazoned on his shield is so purrrrfect for him. He does indeed look like a knight!

A bowgirl in the sun is simply spectacular! It just doesn’t get any better than that!


Wow!

[Grits]

KC, this is such a gorgeous set of screens!

I really like the one with Serana. They look like a team in that one. The stars are beautiful!

Light and dark is my favorite. The detail is exquisite, and you got the angle just right for the mood of the picture. Wow!

What a neat pose at Dragonbridge, with Aravi looking back at the guard who spoke to her.

Woo hoo, Kharjo’s armor!! He really does look like a knight! I love it.

Sunburst is an awesome view of Aravi’s power and fury with that bow. OK, I have two favorites for this set. Beautiful!

[greitas]

Nice!!!

[mALX]

Sunburst is my slam-dunk favorite, but also loved Silver and Gold and Aravi's expression in the guard talking nice to her! All Awesome shots!

[King Coin]

Thanks Elisabeth!

@SubRosa: I wanted to show Aravi and Serana, and it seemed like a night pic would be perfect. Vampires and the Khajiit’s night vision.

Had to make Kharjo all knightly for the last battle against the vamps! He even had a silver long sword to go with it! Thanks SubRosa!

@Acadian: The stars really did look neat slightly out of focus like that. I’m using a night vision mod for Aravi’s night eye, usually everything is quite a bit darker.

I loved the slightly scary look in light and dark. She doesn’t look happy!

I thought you would enjoy that armor! Thanks Acadian!

@Grits: A team they are, though she doesn’t quite replace Kharjo.

I love pictures with high light contrast like that. Makes the details really stand out like you said.

Sunburst was a dragon fight! I was trying to angle a shot to include the dragon and then saw the brilliant light! Thanks Grits!

greitas thank you for stopping and leaving your nice comment!

@mALX: I was so happy when he actually said something nice to her! (the guard) Aravi just stopped and looked at him! Thanks mALX!

This picture took forever for Julienya to complete, because she put so much detail into… well… EVERYTHING.

Aravi in the mountains

No it’s not a screen shot.

[SubRosa]

Oh wow, that is fantastic!

[Elisabeth Hollow]

That...is gorgeous! She does AMAZING scenery!! I'm jealous of her trees!!

[Acadian]

What a beautiful drawing of Aravi. I see what you mean about the amazing attention to detail evident in every wonderful aspect of it. Aravi, her blouse, fur, pendant, the golden tree with its white bark, snow and far off mountains. . . fabulous!

[Grits]

Oh my gosh! That is just gorgeous. WOW!!

[Darkness Eternal]

Rulers of the night-Aravi teams up with Serana up close and personal? Wonder what they're stalking! Rule on, gals! Rule on!

Light and dark- I just noticed this. That's a pretty nasty scar Aravi got there. What's the story behind it?

"No matter what else happens, the guards will always be grateful for everything you've done."
(that’s probably the nicest thing one of them has said to her)- His cape. I love it. And I bet that's the nicest thing they've said. Not many folks like Khajiits, though they're one of the best races out there!

Silver and gold- Now that's what I call armor right there. I found myself admiring the designs on his gear and I like the unicorn shown there, too. Sir Kharjo! Its official.

Sunburst- Pretty soon the vampires are going to be extinct. Love the shot, and her expression!

That picture of Aravi is simply excellent. Good thing you told us it wasn't an ingame pic otherwise I'd be struggling to discern it for awhile. Good to see her once again in simple clothes. That's her through and through! Great artwork!

[mALX]

That drawing is AWESOME! It could be a screenshot! I kind of like that Julienya put that disclaimer on that one, it needed it! Her talents are def growing! Awesome update!

[King Coin]

@Everyone: Hello! So the original plan was to finish this written section and then continue with the videos. The next chapter is just plain taking too long to get right so I am going to resume the videos and post the chapters as they get done.

We left Aravi right after she spoke to General Tullius and got him to agree to meet at High Hrothgar to negotiate with the Stormcloaks for a temporary end to Skyrim’s civil war. After that she was headed to Riften when she got side tracked by Darnand. This video begins in Riften. Aravi has something she needs to take care of.

Glad you all liked the picture; I absolutely loved it and was very impressed with the artist’s skill. If any of you are interested in a character pic from her, I’m sure she’d be happy to draw one for a small fee.

@DE: Serana almost looks too interested in Aravi…

Aravi’s had that scar for a while now. She got it in a very close call fighting vampires, while still in Cyrodiil.

The capes are awesome. Kharjo used to wear a blood red cape, but now he has a tan cape from Elsweyr. Only seemed fitting to give him that one.

Sir Kharjo it shall be. He helped put down Harkon in that armor.
