    I love rogues and pirates! Great background and story, she reminds me of Isabela from the Dragon Age series.

    I always wondered why a respected and feared pirate would have faced mutiny, and this is the perfect explanation

    She's had a though life

    Stunning images of this darling, Rick, although that first vertical is the number one for me!

    Great works, as ever!

      Thank you kindly, dear old friend!

      About time I added another character to the character gallery of mine - as I normally do after a few travel sets and some adventure. It's an easy way for me to keep track on which character I should upload since I have so many of them. Taking them one after one I suppose...and yes, I did a few sets with Elspeth Blackheart and Ragna, so their official backgrounds should come in due time...

    *hits endorse anyway*
    Smutty piratesongs? Very well...
    And it seems like Argonians are not very much liked these days...
    There's still my refugee cave... Poor, poor lizards.
    Aaaaand very much lore behind it all again. ^^

      Some of these days I'll bring an Argonian character into the spotlight as well, I promise!

      It's just that the lizardfolk of my fantasy realm aren't very common since they mostly just exist in one small part of the world. Of course there are heroes and adventurers travelling around world-wide, but people are pretty sceptical about the lizard kin, especially since their own history is rather bloody and barbaric.

      I also feel there's a need to fill out these bio's with a bit of my own lore to better explain the characters origin...

      Like I said, porr, poor, lizards.
      I think it's interesting what others make up in their minds.

    Now a mission of revenge, I do hope it goes well as they say revenge is a double edge sword. A fantastic character introduction. If I remember correctly this is your SNC version Isabela right?

      Revenge can truly backfire and explode in your face if you loose your temper or get too anxious about getting results. Angelica has still to find Deeja, but she has a lead on the brother Jaree-Ra, so now it's up to the game engine to tell if her plan will work out...

      I'm using the same hairstyle for this character, because Angelica was "born" into Skyrim a lot earlier than the premiere of SNC. It's thanks to Angelica I knew about this hair at all, but she's not Isabela. Isabela is made Redguard while Angelica is using Breton as a base, but they're quite alike, I'll give you that...

      Thank you, my friend!

    Can't ,suddenly, remember her very well,.. so endorsed. Like that story you made for her. It's a mix of some story's I read as a child that involved piracy and freedom. Always liked those story's
    You've expanded onthem rather nicely by turning it into a society that has to deal with neighboring country's aswell as their own people. That makes for a very uncertain existance. She seems to be carved out of the right wood and survive this all, only improving from those experiences,..
    Not sure she's likeable though, my guess is she's not. Also she'll have problems trusting people I think,..

      I don't blame you for not remembering her background, Erwin. This is in fact the first time I give her full introduction. I never got to this character while I played in all Vanilla when most of the first background versions appeared. Angelica was introduced to my Skyrim when I played with Bleak, but at that time I was more fascinated by screenshooting with an ENB than to write background texts for my characters...

      Sometimes I wish I could just write out full explanations about my whole worldspace with all the Ages, all the history, all the geography, all the religion, the many cultures and so on. It would be so much more simply if people already knew about my world, but as it is, I'll have to make do by trying to give bits of it all for every character background. I really don't expect people here to see the whole of it all - that's simply too much to comprehend - but it's still good for me to hear and read the reactions. This way I get some feedback about the world I started to build as a young teenager.

      The pirate clans of this part of my world are actually one of the first ideas I got when I started to puzzle the whole fantasy realm together. Just like you, I had read stories and I also very much enjoyed the old b/w movies with Errol Flynn. They used to show some of them on Swedish television when I was younger, so the seafaring life has always been interesting to me. When the "Pirates of the Caribbean"-films came out, piracy had a revival and then came alse Assassin's Creed IV - Black Flag - which is a lovely game if you're into playing a character fully in an environment of a pirates life.

      Angelica has had a lot of bad luck since her adulthood begun. Her last ten years have been a struggle and a quest for revenge, because she refuses to return to well-known waters in fear of being tracked down my rivals again. She need to build a fleet before that, but luck hasn't played in her hands lately and many of her former trustworthy mates have gone missing or been found dead...which we could see in her latest travels sets when she found one of them in the underground complex of Weistone - travel set 3 and 4.
      Trust is definitely an issue for her nowadays, so she prefers to work solo...that is until she finds a follower ready to prove her wrong of course!

      Many thanks for the lovely comment!
