      Thank you very much, Stefano!

      I know I've missed a few uploads done by you, but I'll try to catch up. It's just that I can't stop uploading my own sets...

    Great backstory! Personally i didn't like she is angry with his father, i mean she was the one that didn't want to go, it couldn't be easy for his father to leave her But amazing character anyway and i love this shot: http://c4.staticflickr.com/8/7419/26644744643_eee20e2750_h.jpg ^^

      Thank you very much!

      I find it's a good thing you see it's not her fathers fault! That's actually one of the ingredients in her character story. She stayed on her own purpose, so why should the father be blamed? Her anger comes mainly for him running away instead of seeking revenge, especially since Lashmis mother was so well-known and respected. Good to see you picked this up...

      Yeah i think when she gets older and have sons she will understand that what his father wanted is to save them of danger instead of playing the fool seeking revenge, priorities change as you get older and get new responsibilities

    Excellent background story with gorgeous, moody, rainy shots (I love the rain, I find it soothing)
    I like how the 'mood' changed in the images as she grew older, I guess?

      Thank you kindly!

      Background stories are required for all my characters. I'm not sure how well you know my uploads, but I also intended on writing stories for each and every one of them. This I had to drop though, mainly because it takes me too much time to write them all in English (I'm a Swede). But the backgrounds remain at least...

      Come rain, come thunder,
      come mist, storm and wonder...

      Yes, I like "bad weather too - in real as much as in imaginative worlds.

      Interesting idea on her mood changing as she grow older. Unfortunately these are all images of her present age...
      The images are not intended to show the backstory, the images are to show what' she's up to nowadays.

      I see. Thank you for the additional info (as I'm not up to date with most people's uploads. I have been away for a long time)
      I did notice on your profile that you are Swedish. Very impressive English!

    Excellent set, my old mate, Lashmi has a great backstory, and I will admit to being taken by surprise when I read that she joined the Emperor's guards....and then I smiled when I read why

    "Bide your time,, my daughter....all comes to she who waits!"

    I love the images and to be honest, I was happy to see the rain in the earlier images as I would love to know what she thinks of the Skyrim climate, given that she comes from a land of warm winds and sand.

    There has been rather a proliferation of Redguard/Arab style heroines lately and it's nice to see it...and your Lashmi (love that name) is certainly an excellent and attractive example!

    Great work as always!

      Thank you kindly, Les!

      Lashmi is actually one of those characters I could write a lot about. Nearly half of her introduction is about her mother for an instance, and I have barely just mentioned her father and her brothers. Yes, Lashmi would have a very nice and interesting story if I decided to write texts to my travel sets with her, because then she would let us inside her mind and know a lot more about her, her heroic mother, her lost family and the escape from her homeland after the killing of the former emperor. Glad I managed to bring a smile out though with this small contribution of a backstory...

      It rains a lot in my Skyrim, so rain is very present (especially since I love screenshooting the rainy days as well). Some travels are of course without rain, but I'd say you will get your share of wet weather. As I said, it tends to rain a lot in my game...

      I've got plenty of "Redguard"-characters, but I've introduced mostly Nords. It's more fitting for Skyrim, especially when considering the south of my worldspace is very grand and far away. Having only the Redguard to choose from, is a bit tedious to be honest, when I have so many different cultures from the south in my writing. It goes with every continent in my world obviously, but I play it like this: Nords from my north and east, Bretons from my west, Imperials from my center continent and Redguards from my south. It leaves me with one human race per continent and as you can hear that's rather sparse. Lashmi, for instance, hails from the south, but her homeland is in the southeast of the eastern continent. Think of it more like India rather than the Arabic regions of our world...

      Sorry about the outburst regarding my own written world here!

      Thanks a lot, Erwin!

      I bit darker in colors than as of late. She had a start high up in the mountains of the Reach with lots of comabt and bloodspilling among the Forsworn, so these darker shots sets the tone rather nicely.

      The armor is very cool, I agree, but it's not similar to what she should wear according to my notes. It was the best I could give her though in the beginning, but as you will see in travel set two, she has changed armor completely.

      I love details when I write and that's mainly why I put some food on the table here in my character presentation. It gives a hunch about the culture she's coming from (they're not at all from Tamriel, as you remember, but instead my own worldspace). Spinach is also very good for you...

      Many thanks, dear Izzy and Jürgen!

      She's my best looking Redguard, I admit that...

      Also thank you for your lovely support, both of you, even if I haven't been as much supportive myself these last couple of days...
