About this image

Of the Thalmor agents in Skyrim, Teneska counted herself among the best. She was quick, clever, and relentless. Always at least three steps ahead, preferably ten. No hiding hole was too deep, no nest too remote. Her zeal would have earned her a dreaded reputation - if her quarries ever learned of her. Teneska preferred not to give them the chance. The only evidence she left behind were arrow wounds, scorch marks, and dead targets.

Only now the hunter has become the hunted. While escorting a highly ranked justiciar through Skyrim she vanished from her post just as her unit walked into a Stormcloak ambush, leading to the justiciar's death. The Thalmor now seek her head, and while she knows the wilds of Skyrim well, there's only so much safe harbor in a land where all sides of a civil war hate her. The reason behind a decision as drastic as the one she made is known only to her, and the weight of it bears down on her conscience harder each day. Now she wanders Skyrim, a lone rebel with a secret cause.


Teneska the Sparrowhawk is another follower I intend on publishing soon. More of her backstory, along with the backstory of the rest of my followers, will come episodically. Teneska herself should be ready to release within a week. Her quest mod? Well, I get conniptions just thinking about it. Don't hold your breath, it's gonna be some time. The creation kit is a cruel mistress.

    Well that's an interesting twist you created for her. I love it when people give their creations a background and by doing so breath life into them.

      While I considered that I could just make pretty faces with giant, ahem, personalities, I decided that wasn't me. I wanted to create characters that exist beyond just looking good and lugging the player's junk around.
