Your girl might be going through a breakup, but it sure won't put a dent in my Skyrim hyper-fixation :)))))

These screenshots are very clustered and messy I know, but I just like the idea of Novra vibin in Rorikstead. And I mean we all know Rorikstead worships Daedra, so she's right at home

Serving ✨face✨

I intend to properly mess around more with poses, but I passed through Dragonsreach and I love the Lux windowlight and had to screenshot her impulsively.

I also redesigned Novra to have a more subdued but still menacing appearance.

She's very much fresh to Skyrim here, some distance away from caving into a more cutthroat worship of Mephala. I have some ideas for some gruesome pictures later when she really cracks into brutal apathy :)

A villain arc always slays

Watching this on repeat, it’s such a good edit I can’t!!!

This did SO bad on tiktok but I know my real Alistair cult will love it I heard this song trending and knew I needed to see Alistair x Non-Human warden to it. "My kingdom for a kiss upon her shoulder?" AAAA (even tho quite frankly he never wanted it anyway lol) Anyway this is my warden Xyllyxi Tabris (they/he) and post-canon these two lead the wardens and have a baby and i love them very much omgomgomg

Just a super caz Mephala worshipping sesh on a Windhelm rooftop

I like to imagine Novrynea plotting Rolf's murder here, which is so real babes, get to it

One and only time I felt the urge to go camping.

If only I could teleport to an enchanted tent with everything I need, whenever I need a break (all the time fyi, constant escapism).

Novrynea Aundae, the Illusionist.

I love this pic, she seems so normal and relaxed here. It makes me feel bad when I imagine the character development I have for her.

Novra and Kaidan.

I love this pic, cannot wait for it to show up in my loading screens. Feels like it was a pic taken mid conversation, but the fire feels intense at the same time.

Modding Skyrim into cute cosy hang outs far removed from the dragon apocalypse, one day at a time.

Left to right: Cat, Novra (my oc), Kaidan and Lucien Flavius.

If Lucien can sing, I 100% believe he can play a lute for the night's entertainment :))))

For these photos, I used the {Photo Mode} mod by powerofthree on the Skyrim SE Nexus, alongside the {ILV Poser SE} mod by Vobla (have to Google search to find it).

As part of the Photo Mode functionality, you can select poses within Photo Mode, including the ILV Poser options. For me, it (mostly) bypassed needing to use the rings to select and then play a pose in normal gameplay. Not 100% foolproof, and it took a LOT of tweaking to get things right.

And the 'tai' console command quickly became my best friend :)

More photos to come!

Same world, same place.

Just 200 years apart.

Running through Bruma in the 3rd Era (Oblivion Remaster) to compare it with 200 years of change in the 4th Era (Beyond Skyrim: Bruma), fills me with a kind of yearning that only the concept of time marching ever onward can do to me.

It's why I love time travel stuff so much :)

Another Novrynea Aundae (my oc) and Val Serano pic of the spiced wine hang out.

Still messing around with getting a pose pack to make scenes a bit more natural looking, but the colour scheme of the sky is 100% Novra's vibe and too good to pass up posting.

This pic just here Kos it looks cute, and I want to manifest the photo mode mod putting this into the loading screens when I play :)

Spiced wine hang out in Solitude with Val Serano (after an obligatory forgery of course).

I think this is the best pic honestly. When I write stuff I like to set up inanimate pieces of the setting as witness to two characters connecting.

This like it captures that vibe I like to go for perfectly. Having a fleeting moment of cosy conversation overseen by a structure that predates and will antecede these two for a long time yet.

I also just love the photo mode mod.

"I've learned that if you feel you have no place in the world, you must make one."

Is a really ironic line of dialogue, when it's voice acted by a guy who regularly posted transphobia (among other bigotry) on his Twitter.

This is not an attack on the mod itself, the original creator, or any such thing (I don't know Liv's opinions of transness, but I do know she wrote some amazing lines).

This is just a thought I can never shake from my head when I get to that line in his quest.

By contrast, the Kaidan Revoiced - Community Expansion (KRCE) looks and sounds amazing, and I'm eager to see that mod flourish.

BYEEEEEE

My Skyrim OC (Novrynea Aundae) + Kaidan

I discovered the photo mode mod for Skyrim (https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/91701) and I lost my mind.

I had to fiddle around with expressions to make him look slightly happier, otherwise she was at the sharp end of a very judgy look.

NEED to take more pictures, but getting the right daytime lighting with an ENB is such a task tho.
