Had the honor to draw the beloved Taliesin and his trusty cerimonial dagger Berwhale the Avenger for @dynamite124! I would be weary of insulting it- ahem, him, if you don't want to get this face from Tally, and... maybe something more. (go download him RIGHT NOW!!)
A Shadowscale, Mercenary, Swordsman, and Ex-Thalmor walk into a bar…
I finally expanded and made a non-elf oc lol
Kajin-Ja is my first Argonian character across any Elder Scrolls game and I’m actually really happy with how he turned out 🫶 (I will have to find a mod that makes argonian tails bigger tho) (why are they so small in skyrim???)
Kajin-Ja and his ESO counterpart! he lost his precious feathers and I made him way too light ;(
Inigo: You clearly are. You have a little thing for our mutual friend, yes?
Taliesin: Why would I?! They drag us all around Skyrim! They constantly smell of sweat, always running off into danger and somehow manage to keep themself alive! Do they even know how much we worry about them?!
Inigo: I feel the 'we' in that sentence does not include anyone else but you.
Taliesin: *ignoring him* They have the worst sense of direction! Always getting lost and then somehow finding where we need to go after stumbling about for literal hours! Kaidan swears they hold their map upside down! And! And they always have us carry their heaviest items! Who on earth does that?! Not to mention their absolutely unreasonable strength! A brute no matter what size they are! Do you know they once picked me up just to get me away from a dog?!
Inigo: *barely listening, drinking his mead with an uninterested expression* Mhm. That is veeeeeery interesting.
Taliesin: And how can one person be so attractive when they are always covered in dirt and blood?! I can't begin to count the amount of times I've gotten distracted because they so something so outrageously desirable and it is incredibly irritating!
Inigo: Is that so.
Taliesin: Just- everything about them! Their hair, their eyes, their insatiable need to help everyone around them! The way they fight, the way they.. *trails off, distracted by the way the Dragonborn laughs at something Xelzaz said* ... A-Anyway. *clears his throat, a golden flush spread across his cheeks* There is absolutely no way I would be in love with the Dragonborn. Everything about them is too.. insufferable.
Inigo: ... Wow. I never even said you were in love with them, you know.
Taliesin:
Inigo:
Taliesin: Wait-
Lucien: *from across the room* DENIAL IS A RIVER IN HAMMERFELL
So in light of me learning how to write in Falmeris, I have composed a letter from my Falmer oc adressed to Kaidan and Taliesin.
Translation:
"Dear Kaidan and Taliesin,
Stop drinking all my fucking alto wine. That's right, I know. Lucien ratted on you assholes. Just because I'm not in Skyrim right now doesn't mean I wasn't going to drink that shit.
